My Heart Is Full

I'm using up more of my Scrapbook Generation kits.  This double page layout I completed for my sister.  It's photos of her and her new husband while they were dating...their engagement and then wedding.  

I have done several layouts of her and our son, but figured now it was time to include our families newest addition...well at the time.  Now that our daughter has arrived I'll have to do some layouts of her and them too!

Better When Laughing

Up today with another layout for Scrapbook Challenges.  This time I used my Silhouette Cameo to create a very simple cut file to mimic the strips in the sketch.  The collection is Jillibean Soup cold avocado soup.  Some enamel dots - splatters - sequins and a picture of my parents and I'm set!

Merry Christmas Scraplift

     Ooppss - I'm a day late on my posting for the Scrapbook Challenges.  Forgive my new mommy brain! I really love our challenge this month - scrap lift each other.  I chose to scraplift the page from Katie. 

     I used this 5x7 photo of us from several Christmas' ago.  The paper is all from the December creative kit over at My Creative scrapbook.  If you can't tell I'm really trying to get my kits used up.  

 Ok - short and sweet today - have soooo much to get dome while J sleeps!

Let It Snow

Time for my second reveal of the month with Scrapbook Challenges.  This is another page based off a sketch. For once I stuck fairly closely to the sketch.

The papers are from Pebbles and I received them in my January My Creative Scrapbook kit.  The pink snowflakes are done with Heidi Swapp modeling paste mixed with a bit of liquitex white modeling paste to tone down the pink color to match the washi tape from the collection. Can you believe I used pink on one of my boy pages!?

A little tip on the embellishments in the top right corner...think outside the box.  Actually, in this case turn the box upside down.  The thing that looks like a snowflake is actually supposed to be an Elsa (Frozen) crown that I cut the crown piece off. 

Hope you are inspired to play along!

Let's Do This - Home Depot Layout

I'm up today with another layout for Scrapbook Challenges.  Today I am using a sketch, but as always putting my spin on it.  I dug through my old Studio Calico kits and put bits and pieces from several older kits (all from 2014) together.  

I am determined to get a bunch of those papers used this year.  In fact, I'd like to get enough of them used to consider all my SC items used up.  This was my first kit club, and honestly the one I regret signing up for.  

Any who...here's my take on the sketch.  This was our son's first trip to Home Depot, and four years later he still asks to go just to walk around!  I hope it inspires you to join the fun!

A Boy And His Dog Layout

I'm up today with my last layout of the month for Scrapbook Challenges.  As a design team we are only asked to complete four projects a month, but I liked this sketch so much I needed to use it too.

The paper is by Bella Blvd and came in one of my Creative Kits from My Creative Scrapbook.  I believe it was the October kit if I had to guess.    All of my edges are inked in opposite colors.  The reds in blue and the whites in red.  It looks really cool in person.

Thanks for popping in today, and if you use today's sketch please let me know!

First Wink Layout

Thank you for joining me for another reveal for Scrapbook Challenges.  As you can tell I've really been enjoying the challenges this month and have gotten so much done.  

This is another sketch challenge and of course I had to alter it.  I rotated the sketch and moved the title.  Where I used the two 3x4 pocket cards is where the title was intended to go. 

 

The wink of my title was plain wood veneer.  I took some acrylic pain I had laying around and painted it to match my journalling card.  

I also don't know if you can tell in the photo, but I stitched down each side of the block like the dotted lines in the sketch. 

I really love how you can take a sketch, and alter it slightly, to make it work for your photos.
