Ho! Ho! Ho! layout

My last post for the year!
I can't believe it.
But I'm ending on a fun one for sure:

 

 

 Moments like these are the best!
I don't get to scrap them very often because I'm usually the one behind the camera so I really, really love that someone thought to grab the camera and take pictures of my "racing" my daughter on the new wiggle carts we got for Christmas. So much fun!

For all of my H's on my Ho!, Ho!, Ho! title I used metallic chalk marker, on the bells I used the same in white and then for the snowflake O I used the matte white chalk marker. For the ! I used red ink pad.

 

This cute little present is from the Gifts Set 3.
I used ink pads and gold metallic marker.
Don't forget the magical touch of a few acrylic stars to really get some pop on your layout!

 

To finish up I had this super fun Spiral Bauble and used the blue metallic chalk marker with some silver for the top piece.  Then I added a bunch of the wood veneer Peppermints with just a touch of red liquid pearls to give them some more color.

I hope you have a fabulous holiday and get to spend lots of time with your loved ones doing whatever it is that makes your heart happy!

Capture Memories layout

Hello my friends.
Time for me to share my layout with you.

I really love how this turned out.
I picked some pretty simple photos of my daughter working on a sewing project but with the right embellishments, you get a pretty awesome layout.

So on my title I used 2 words from the Small Moments Border Words set. I used an ink pad to add a bit of color to them and attached them with glue dots.
The acorn is wood veneer from the Acorns set. I used an ink pad on this too, but with a darker color. The chipboard and wood absorb the ink differently so sometimes I test it out on the back before applying to the front.

This fun little pumpkin is from the Pumpkins set. It has 3 in it.
I used various different colored ink pads here and you can see that some absorbed more than others.

 

This piece is from the Pumpkin Corners set.
I just LOVE how it turned out.
And of course the finishing touch is adding the awesome acrylic Red Leaves here and there to really set off my embellishment clusters and tie the page together.

Thanks for stopping by!
I hope you're having a wonderful fall.

Happy layout

 Hello and happy November to you all!
Today I'm sharing a birthday layout.
In my family we have a couple of birthdays in November so I always have a lot of photos of present opening this time of year.
This layout, however is about my daughter making cupcakes for her birthday.

So for this cute layout I used a sketch by Rochelle Spears and the first thing that grabbed me was the banner in the corner. I knew the Happy Banner from the Birthday Fun wood veneer set would be perfect for this layout.
I also used the cute little party hat over the photo of cupcakes.

For all of these pieces I used markers to color and add details.

These fun candles are from the Birthday Candles chipboard set and my Happy Birthday is from the Small Sentiment Words set.
I used markers to color these too and to add the polka-dots to the candles.

I hope you have lots of fun family time this month and time to scrap a few of those moments too.

Fastpitch layout

Hello crafty people!
Today I'm sharing a layout based on the sketch from Sketches In Thyme.
You can find the sketch and play along on their fb page.

 

 I had a lot of fun using this new to me line from Photoplay paper and creating a fun softball page of my daughter back in her fastpitch days. I think my favorite part is the ball stitches around the outside of the layout. It's easy to do and adds so much to the design.

Thanks for stopping in!

You're beautiful layout

Can you believe it's April already?
It's hard for me to believe, but all of the snow and snowstorms aren't exactly helping.
I'm hoping it feels a bit more like spring by the end of the month.
Crossing my fingers.

I have this gorgeous layout to share with you based on the sketch and challenge from Scrap Our Stash.
All of the details are on the blog here.

Wishing you a bit of sunny spring weather.

Spring Snowflakes layout

Nothing says spring like a snowstorm!
Ugh.
But the kids loved it and had so much fun catching snowflakes with their tongues.

Happy March everyone!

Sweetheart layout

 Today I'm up on the Creative Memories blog!
I had a lot of fun making this layout.

My sweet girl on Valentine's day.
I used mostly stash for this and then the awesome new chipboard Valentine's pieces from Creative Embellishments.

Thanks!
Angela

Volleyball layout

 Happy June to you all!
I hope you're getting outdoors a bit and enjoying some fun and sun.
Today I'm sharing a layout based on a sketch from Scrap Our Stash.

I turned the sketch to fit my photos and just had so much fun with this layout. Normally my volleyball photos are from my older daughter's team and those tend to be school colors. So with this camp layout I used a lot of the elements that had colors that do not go with the school layout.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pancake layout

 Hello!
I have another fun sports layout to share with you today!

 

 

 

These photos have both my daughters in them. It was really fun to watch my oldest 'teach' my youngest a little about the sport she loves and enjoys.
My oldest is on the left demonstrating a Pancake and my youngest is on the right practicing it.

I used a lot of awesome Creative Embellishment products on this layout.
I spruced up some of my stars with my gel crayons but left the wood veneer stars and volleyballs naked.
I also used a sketch from Sketch N Scrap.

Here are a few closeups:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for popping in today!

LOL layout

 I'm here with this month's Sketches in Thyme layout:

You can find the sketch here.
I had so much fun working with this sketch. It was super fun and easy.

I dug into my stash for this layout and used a line I picked up at the Let's Create expo a few years ago from Hazel and Ruby. This line was perfect for these cute and fun pics of my daughter.

I added lots of little details with wood veneer, puffy stickers, washi tape, word stickers and doodling.

Thanks for swinging in!
