December 25th Layout

     Back today with another page using my Scrapbook Generation Kit Club from 2014, and Simple Stories DIY Christmas.  The sketch came with the kit, and if this was a stand alone page the photo's wouldn't be oriented so far left or right, but since it's part of a two pager they look pretty good put together in my album

     Speaking of albums - would love to hear what your favorite 3 ring binders are. I never seem to have enough albums.

Boo Boo Layout

I'm up today with a another reveal for ScrapMuch!?  I'm much for pleased with how this one came out than the last!  

I don't normally scrapbook the non-perfect photos, but this memory had to be captured.  Our son was goofing around in the tub sliding on his bottom and in the time I took for us to say stop he knocked his head on the side...split this eye lid right open.  I actually thought he'd have to get stitches :-(  He thankfully just ended up with a black eye for a few days...over our vacation.  We got lots of strange looks that year.  

Except for my Heidi Swapp roller stamp and thickers...everything came from the Fancy Pants Be Different Collection.  This is an older collection, but most of it can still be purchased online.  I had the 6x6 pad and some embellishments, but picked up the 12x12 paper and more embellishments at the recent expo I attended.

Have you attended an expo recently?  I'd love to see what you created with your purchases and/or what you created with this reveals sketch.  Also, before you go please join my blog...there are lots of different ways to be notified when I post new layouts.  Thank you!

Christmas Joy Layout

Hey followers!  Time for another layout...I've made a bunch of non-design team projects this month, but have been no lax about getting them posted.  This is one half of a double page layout that was part of a Scrapbook Generation Kit from December 2014 I believe.  The collection used is Simple Stories DIY Christmas.

I used up a bunch of older scrapbook kits this month.  I found it a pain to choose photos to fit the sketch specific spots, but once I spent that time these came together in snap.  Stay tuned to see the rest of what I got done.

Hey Pop

     Hi everyone and welcome to a layout reveal that...wait for it...isn't for a design team!  This one I did strictly because I wanted too using the My Scraps & More Sketch #115.  Having photos and elements with so much white space in between usually isn't my thing, but I really wanted to use this and challenge myself.

     The photo is of my Dad and our Son last year on his school's Fathers Day hike.  Hubby wasn't able to get off of work so Pop stepped in. and they had a blast....our son is still talking about it.  The paper and element stickers are all from the older Simple Stories Hey Pop collection.  When this collection came out I scooped it right up because everything I find says Grandpa, but we don't use that term...we call him Pop.

    There isn't much else on the page that isn't part of that collection. The washi at the top is from a group buy so I have no idea what the brand is, and the tiny title stickers are from Jillibean Soup.  Easy peasy...done in about an hour, which is a record for me.

    So that's my second layout done for the no buy October I am participating in, and I'll have more to share soon.  Feels so good to get some old stash used!

Hello Summer

Hi all!  Can you believe it's time for another reveal day at ScrapMuch!? This was a really hard sketch for me as I don't use a lot of circles.  I tried to embrace it and here's what I came up with.  

The papers and stickers are from the July Creative Kit over at My Creative Scrapbook.  The ones I used are all from Pebbles and Doodlebug.  The sunburst on my page was a file I purchased from the Silhouette store.  It was meant to be a 12x12 cut out for a background.  I shrunk it down and cut it out of transparency film...voila..a stencil for my Heidi Swapp spray.  

So how do you think it came out!?  I'd love to hear your comments.  I'd also love if you play along that you'd leave me a link in the comments so I can leave you some love too!

Sand In My Toes

Welcome to another reveal for ScrapMuch!?  The lovely sketch from Laura Whitaker that we had to work with is...

     For my layout I used a bunch of supplies from the July Creative Kit that I subscribe too through My Creative Scrapbook.  The green paper behind my photos, and the banner paper with the summer icons on it are both from Doodlebug's Sun Kissed Collection. The stickers are from Pebbles Fun In the Sun.    The water splashes in the left corner are modeling paste, mixed with acrylic paint and put through a stencil.  I really wanted to make splashes around the page, but with how sense the stencil was it just kept getting all smooshy so I started over.

     I feel like I struggle in general with very bright colors, but I really like how this one came out, and I hope you agree!

Love You Layout!

Oh my gosh guys - I have been so busy that I've been neglecting my blog :-(  I'm finally back today though with a new sketch from ScrapMuch!?

You can see how I left the circle out and changed the orientation of my photos, but otherwise left the sketch alone.  I used the Bella Blvd Hello Autumn collection for all my accent papers, and the wood grain is from Studio Calico.  The orange leaves and green branches are modeling paste mixed with acrylic paint. Some Doodlebug Fall enamel dots, Thickers and I was good to go.
