may studio AE from Technique Tuesday blog hop…

Welcome another Studio AE Blog Hop!  As this month’s guest designer, I am so excited to be joining the team for this fun day!

The new stamp set from Ali and Technique Tuesday is called, “Real Life by Ali Edwards.” 

Studio AE May 2011 - Real Life

The set consists of 16 clear stamps. The set works great for scrapbook pages and mini books, as well as cards.

The set ships to Studio AE members between the 10th and the 15th. Non-Studio AE members can also purchase the set for a limited time through the Technique Tuesday Web site. Some retailers are also now offering the Studio AE stamp sets for purchase. Check with your favorite retailer for more details about that.

Here’s a layout I created using the stamp set:

family_layout

I came across this photo of our family from a few years ago.  We were living in a different home.  The two little boys weren’t in school yet.  Meagan and Josh look so tiny and young.  For some reason it struck me that time is going by so quickly.

Things can change so fast.  But one thing remains the same – my love for this group of people.  My family.  Past. Present.  Future.  No matter what stage we’re in.  No matter what we’re going through.  As long as we’re together, we’re “home,” and that’s the only thing that matters.

You might recall the project I created last week using this set – you can see it HERE.  My first layout has a very different look/feel to it – I just love how versatile this stamp set is!  Speaking of versatile, you need to check out the blogs of Ali and all of Technique Tuesday’s Studio AE team members taking part in today’s blog hop to see more ways to use the new set.
