Paradise

Hello there! For NSD, I randomly won some cut files from The Cut Shoppe! The large paradise title was one of my choices . . . isn't it fabulous!!!

I used my Silhouette and SCAL to cut the file out. I fussy cut a LOT of flowers from BoBunny's Boardwalk and Beach Therapy pattern paper. Hope you are inspired!

P.S. The photos are from our cruise on the Carnival Magic!

Scrap The Boys: One of a Kind

Hello again! Today I'm sharing with you my DT layout with ScrapTheBoys!!

Here is the challenge:

Let's just say it's rather hard to get my son in front of camera these days. And, it's even harder

 for me to be beside him since I'm the one holding the camera.

So, photo booths for the win!!!

This fabulous cut file is a freebie provided by TheCutShoppe! I believe it was 

created with Spring in mind but I love how girly and versatile the file actually is.

I wanted to step away from the typical "mommy and me" layouts cause that's just not us.

Plus, my wonderful kid doesn't mind if I put his mugshot on pink paper.

The papers and embellishments are from HipKitClub, 

where I used both a mixture of January and February kits. 

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Studio Challeges: Beautiful Day

Today at Studio Challenges is a sketch!

I chose to flip the sketch and add a background wreath to it.

Photo was taken in the mountains in Germany. We were 

about 1 mile high, so it looked like we were up in the

clouds. Everything about the photo is real.

I think there was suppose to be another cloud here,

but it fell off (not glued down) before I realized it 

was missing.

The background is "today" from Ashley Horton.

I stitched all over and then added the extra zigzag

to make it look like "messy stitching".

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Creative Scrappers: Hello Berlin!!!

It's that time again!! A new sketch from Creative Scrappers for you to play with this month.

Our Sponsor for this month is Ashley Horton's The Cut Shoppe. I used her 'Around & Around' 

file for this sketch. I did make a mistake with this one though. Can you guess where??

My layout is part of my collection of layouts from my travels to Germany last year.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Hint: Mistake is here.

Fun in the sun

Ok peeps . . . here is my final layout using My Creative Scrapbook's July kit. They have asked me to be a guest designer after winning last month's sketch challenge and I had fun working with their creative kit.

This layout comes with a bit of background. I have been following Ashley Horton for quite some time. Love nearly everything she makes. She has an Etsy shop, The Cut Shoppe, full of unique die cuts. Her cuts are meant to be large and page filling. This is my first time trying it out and I loved it!

The fun, colorful backdrop is actually a reverse die cut pattern. I'll definitely be incorporating more of this type of background into my layouts in the future.

I did not follow a sketch. It's more of an idea from having watched Ashley's layouts for quite some time.

Thanks for stopping by today!

I took a journaling tag, cut it down, and made all these individual
tags for this layout.

I love layers. The end. LOL
