Top 10 in 2013

 My top 10 of 2013 plus a card and project. 

It's fun to look back at everything I've created in the past year and definitely hard to pick a top ten. Some made it easily and others were a bit more difficult to narrow down. I love them all for different reasons. That's why we scrap right?

Anyway, here they are:

I made quite a few cards this year. Something I haven't done much of in the past.

 

I've also made a lot of projects for my daughter's sports teams and I'm really starting to enjoy it.

 

Thanks so much for going back over a wonderful year with me. I can't wait to see what 2014 brings! Bring it on!! :)Ange

Today I'm using sketch #298 from Nuts About Sketches and the Dec kit from Scrapbook Circle, All is Bright. I really like the way this page turned out.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Christmas Magic

Hi! 

I have a layout I want to post real quick. I used a sketch from 3 Scrappy Boys.

I will have a bigger post with detail photos later in the week.

A chilly layout

 Hello! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and spent a bit of down time with good friends and family. Around here, we're attempting to stay warm. I'm not a big fan of the cold temperatures, but I am a huge fan of the Winterland line! The blues, purples and icy whites are fantastic for your winter photos. Check it out:

I took this photo from my front porch last year (I try not to venture very far from the warmth of my house when possible lol). I loved the way it turned out and I knew this Winterland line would be perfect to keep the cold chilly feel of the photo. These papers are so pretty that they could stand alone. But I did add just a bit.

I used a white mist on the dark purple of Let it Snow for a shimmery mat under my photo, layered some Below Zero under that and then added this fun die-cut. I punched snowflakes out of scraps and added them here and there with a bit of stickles.

In the upper corner I used this fun die-cut and a pretty snowflake sticker. I also inked all of my edges with a dark purple. I love blues and purples for this chilly effect.

  Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you stay warm this winter!

Gifts & Tags w/ DCWV

 Hi! Have you seen DCWV's Holiday Glitzy Glitter stack? It is GORGEOUS!! I love it.

I've been using it for backgrounds on layouts and cards and now I'm using it as gift wrapping.

Perfect, right? I made 6 boxes, put some little toys in them and gave them to the kids I watch. They loved them (or maybe it was just the candy inside?).

My favorite thing about these papers, besides how beautiful they are, is that you don't end up with glitter all over you. It's really just amazing! It all stays put on the paper and it's easy to work with. 

I also added some cute tags using the Jolly Whimsy stack. 

I thought these boxes were really easy to make. My 12yr daughter found them here:

Boxes and made a couple. I pulled her boxes apart to figure it out on my own. 

Keep in mind a 12x12 sheet of paper gets you a box that is 3x3x3, perfect for the small gifts and so fun with this awesome glittery stack (that doesn't flake off when you're working with it!). And absolutely fun and quick for those small last minute gifts.

  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Holidays,

Ange
