Spa Birthday

Okay, so sometimes you just have to make a pink and girly page....

and a spa birthday is a perfect time to do just that!

some of you might have seen this layout, but now I have pictures on it, and that really does make a difference

 A long title is a perfect opportunity to mix and match sticker letters! If you can't deal with each letter being different, just make each word different, and then you create a great contrast and interest.

 Yes, I actually wrote out my journaling by hand! It doesn't happen often, but it does let me finish a page faster. and writing along the curve is less difficult by hand. It can be done on the computer though.
hahah but once you have your layout done then that is almost impossibe! haha


Lots of Love,

Class Kit - Sweet as Summer....

I just love the Dear Lizzy scrapbook line "Neopolitan"

I've had some of the papers for a little while,

 I just needed these hot summer days to inspire me to cool off!

The sweet cool colors in this layout do just that, 

I can just feel the sweet summer breeze in my hair!

Not to mention, pictures of the kids eating ice cream would be perfect on this page!

Mini banners made from the patterned paper is a great way to add texture 

and a fun element to the page. If you felt really creative, you could

add tiny letters on the banner for your title.

 hmm... I just might go do that right now!

I couldn't resist adding more banners to the other side of the page too, 

and the file folder mat was a great place to do just that.  

It really accents this picture and a flower on the side pulls it all together!

Okay, and the jars are just about the most adorable little accent in the world! 

It is the perfect place for a name or date or a bit 'o journaling!

Lots of Love,

Simple and So Pretty

So sometimes I can't help it and I just have to make a page that is Simple and Girly and Pretty!

Flowers and Frilly paper just make me smile!

Using the pictures of all the girls in the family made for a perfect page for this paper!

I found these handmade crocheted flowers for a $1 - wow

they added the greatest texture to the layout

I have had this frame on my inspiration board for over a year! 

It was just waiting for this page!

I just want to show you how you can mix and match different papers 

and it doesn't have to be super elaborate to be a great page!

 Adding black accents really makes the inked edges pop! It brings it all together!

Lots of Love,

Random Things that make me Smile

I don't even have pictures for this layout yet,
but I just had to make something totally girly, and awesome!

I just love these colors together, and how fun is the zebra print ribbon!!! OH YEAH

With this layout, it is all about the textures!!!

adding the layers of paper with eyelets, 

and the flowers with shiny brad, it really add to the detail

Oh, the color of this photo is a little off, 

but you can still see the detail.

oh, how I with the camera fairy would visit...

Lots of Love,

Happy Days

 These were just a few random pictures Logan and I took of ourselves! He is just so much fun!
One great way to put a little twist to a page and add more interest is to set everything at a slight angle.
This works great with just a few pics, or if you can crop them down, more will look great too.

Hope to get on a posting schedule, I have lots of ideas in the works.... make it Mondays, Here's what I'm working on Wednesdays, finally finished Fridays! That one sounds fun doesn't it?


Lots of Love,
