Bridal Shower

I made this layout for the scrapbook page swap on SCS. I LOVE this swap. I love making layouts for other people. Plus I get a completed layout back. It a win-win. I really like how this layout came together.

Something Old is New Again

I have several scrap book layouts that just never made it into albums. They've been sitting in those plastic acid-free folios waiting and waiting and waiting. Well, they were originally 8.5x11 layouts and no one really does those anymore! All my new albums are 12x12 so I used some creativity and made them into 12x12 layouts. I kept the original layout and added some 12x12 and a few other embellies etc, rounded some corners and voila, now they are finally in albums! I don't think you can tell they were originally 8.5x11, either. Can you?

Happy July 4th!

Happy Fourth of July!!!

Here is an easy layout I made. The Mickey rosette was made by a friend and the Mickey icon was received in a card/page candy swap. I am a little behind on my Disney pages but I am getting there slooowly.

Floral Flourish

Sorry I've been MIA. I had a family emergency but I'm baaaaaaack!! Here is a little something I made for a swap on SCS. This is actually a wide border for a 12x12 scrap book page. This border measure 4"x12". I love making these wider borders. There is so much you can do with the wider size. Enjoy!

Hero

I received some page candy from a swap I was in on SCS. This super hero candy was made by StampinGoodDeeds. This was perfect for a layout of my some in various super hero costumes over the last few years!

March Competing Princesses

Hello, this post a a few days late! The awesome Colleen out together this kit for out Paper Princess Blog Sisters competition. She even included a cute sketch. I didn't have room for the sentiment so I put it inside. Silly me, I should have turned the card the other direction but honestly, I almost didn't see the sentiment! There were these two white ovals and I didn't see anything stamped on them. I almost glued them under the flowers. In fact one was already glued and when I went to put adhesive on the other to attach it to the card, that is when I saw the sentiment. SO I quickly peeled them off but it was too late to re-orient my card. Everything else had been attached.

Lesson learned: Flip everything over first before making the card!

Got Snow?

I made this layout for mnewby's swap over at SCS. I CASED this layout from the cover of Creating Keepsakes magazine. I really like the colors and how this layout came out. I used some Glimmer Mist in Dazzling Diamonds on the title to add a little sparkle. The border punches are Martha Stewart and EK Success. I cut the snowflakes on my Cricut from the Joys of the Season cartridge. The paper is AC Cardstock, Bazzill, ATD's Jack Frost. The snowflake border is from Recollections. Enjoy!!

Relaxing!

I am trying to use up supplies I received in swaps. So quick and easy to throw a layout together with this border sets! I got this border set from a good swapping buddy of mine, NancyLuvsMickey. I just love the colors. I only added the photo mats and the background card stock. She did the rest!

Competing Princesses Again!

Whoo hoo! My blog sisters are at it again. We are having a friendly little competition amongst ourselves. There are two groups and each month the host for that month sends their group an image, solid card stock, DP, and some embellies.  Then we go to work designing a card with our kits. It is fun to see what everyone does with the identical kits. My group's hostess for this month is the fabulous Marsha and here is my card:

Halloween Fun!

I have been working on Halloween pages. These are actually current pictures too! I really crammed a lot of pictures onto this one LOL! The bats and the pumpkin were from a page candy swap. The DP is Basic Grey's Eerie. The border bunch is a Martha Stewart punch.
