Waiting for Santa layout

I hope you're all enjoying the holidays!
Today I'm sharing a layout about my littlest waiting in line to see Santa. He was so curious, he had to go up and check out what was going on and I grabbed a couple photos. It was super cute.

 



I created this for the SOS challenge.
You use their sketch and there's usually a twist. This month it's "anything goes".
Check out their blog and play along!

Thanks!

Sweet Cookie layout

Hello!
Today I'm sharing a layout based on a Sketches In Thyme's sketch:



 I'll be honest, this one was hard for me.
I struggle with leaving this much white space. I knew it was going to be a hard sketch for me, but I also knew it was going to turn out awesome.

Don't forget to hit SIT's facebook page and play along for your chance to win.

Hello Winter layout

It's December!
I have to be honest, from here until spring I just want everything to speed up so I can be warm again.
But in the meantime, I'll do winter layouts to share.

 



Today I'm creating for Scrap Our Stash and the challenge is to use 2 or more of the shapes; triangles, diamonds or hexagons.
As you can see I've done both diamonds and triangles.
I was creating the diamonds for my title area and the triangles were a result, so I added them at the top for a banner, embellishment cluster.

Thanks!

Using the sketch and faux stitching based on the challenge really made this layout fun to make.

Thanks so much for checking out my layout!

Zombie layout

 Hello!
Today is my birthday and because Halloween is the BEST holiday, I have created another Halloween layout as a gift to myself.
Also, I LOVE how it turned out!!



I seriously had so much fun playing with this layout and adding detail after detail. All of the "how-to" info that you might be interested in is on the Creative Embellishments blog.

But check out this closeup of the zombie hands!
Totally my favorite piece on the whole layout.



When you remember that this is chipboard, so it starts off looking brown you really get how cool this turned out. I'm SO in love!!
Happy Birthday to me!

Pumpkin Patch layout

 Hello
November already.
I'm really going to miss October, but that does mean we have a new challenge to share with you today.
From Scrap Our Stash, I created this layout for it:




 

Using the fall colors from the challenge and adding some leaves I made this fun layout of my little guy with the pumpkin he picked at the patch when he was able to go with his school class. He had so much fun and LOVED his pumpkin.



Thanks for joining me today.
I hope you have fun creating with this challenge too.

Spooky Night layout

Happy Spooky Season!

I really can't think of a better way to spend my crafting time than to be making Halloween layouts. They're just so fun!

The sketch was super fun and easy to build off of and for the tic tac toe challenge, I used Orange/black, 4 photo & ink splatter.

Have a wonderful Halloween season.

The Perfect Shot layout

 It's really hard to get that perfect shot with sports photos, isn't it?
I spend a lot of time with my camera at my kids sporting events and I love every minute, but I often find that getting that amazing shot is almost impossible no matter how much time you spend or how hard you try.
I decided scrapping these photos that I would document just how hard it can be.



I have officially decided we need a scrapbook line geared more to our photography sides, but I managed to come up with a pretty great layout by combining travel, softball and daily document lines.

This layout was for Sketches In Thyme using this fun sketch from designer Jenessa Franco

I really love using these bug chipboard pieces from Creative Embellishments for these camping layouts!

Hello all!
I hope you're having a wonderful July.
Today I'm sharing a layout I made using a sketch from the ScrapRoom and products from Creative Embellishments.

Your perseverance & determination layout

 Hi! Today I'm sharing a layout created with Creative Embellishment goodies.
I started off with a great photo and sketch designed by Rebecca Moore.
Then I picked out these fun chipboard words from the Determination word set at CE for my title.

 


 

I used the star envy stencil and some ink pads for my background, layered my papers similar to the sketch design and then had fun adding more embellies and my journaling.
I used chipboard nested stars, wood veneer soccer balls & acrylic mirrored silver stars.

Here are a few closeups:

 

 

 



Thanks so much for coming by!
