Class Kit - It's all about the FOOD!

Let's face it, what do we do when we get together 

for holidays, birthdays, or any celebration...... 

we EAT of course !!!

So, here is a page all about summer, 

and what we do best cook food and eat!!!

This layout is set up for a picnic or bbq, 

but would work for any celebration 

or even just a cook out!

The words are pre-printed for you, 

but if you want different words, you can flip the paper over and write new words 

or print new ones on your own its so easy to personalize it that way!

The combination of colors makes this layout so fun 

and I must say even a little mouth watering! 

 hahah!

  By adding the eyelets you are really adding a great textural element to the page, 

the metal and the shape of the circles really accent the large circle in the paper!

Can You Come Out an Play? at the Zoo

One of my Favorite summertime adventures....

Going to St. Louis Zoo!

If I lived in the city I would go there everyday!

I could spend hours just watching and sketching the animals! 

This Bo Bunny paper line was perfect for this trip!

My family however, wants to see it all and run around as fast as they can!

And I totally love doing it that way too.

and is a great way to get more scrapbooking done on the page.

 

On this trip it was just me and Logan, 

and I was actually able to get him to sit still for a few seconds and snap a few pics! 

The old vintage button above was just calling out to be put on this page! and to use hemp

to tie it on is always my favorite look for a zoo page!

The nice thing about it is that I wasn't stuck behind a camera all day, 

I took a few shots and then enjoyed the day!

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,

Not too Girly Birthday Page

 Not too girly Birthday Page

As many of you know, pink is NOT Maddy's favorite color

so, I have to be creative with how I make her pages!

I absolutely loved using the grunge board wings and crown.

The black frame is a clear overlay that I have used so much

it is really versatile!

 Mixing old and new products is a great way to add a more artistic feel to the page

Can you believe this is the first time I used a crown like this on a page! and I LOVE it!

and this paper ribbon adds just the greatest texture!

You can bling up a page with just  few crystal brads!!!

 Hope you love is page as much as I do!!!

Lots of Love,

Seriously? This is as good as it gets!

 So Sorry it's been soooo long since I've posted!!! 

I have felt a bit uncreative lately! I know crazy right! but it does happen to me too.

I am still in love with mint and yellow! and have fun playing with these colors!

 If my dog could speak, I think she would be saying

"Seriously? Yeah! This is as good as it gets!"

This is also a great way to use a large picture on a single page layout

The title, I made with white core cardstock, and ran it through a old school label maker! 

Then sanded the surface to expose the white

It took me a long time to make this page, the colors were just never right. Until Mint and Yellow! The coloring I did to the photo just worked the best with these colors! I love it!  

What do you think?

Lots of Love,

Class Kit - Mint and Yellow Pleats

So, if you are anything like me, 

sometimes you just have so much going on, you don't get a chance to play!

I have been wanting to make more pages and 

play with all the mint and yellow and grey shades I can get my hand on!

It has taken me some time, but I have a class kit for you, 

this is the light one and i will have a bright one soon.

 Enjoy!

 The ink on the grey is done with a silver ink that just makes it shine.!!!

The diecuts that come with this layout are glittery, and who doesn't love a little glitter!!!

The light colors of this layout really make it feel soft and sweet! I love the light grey mats!

a title along the bottom blue pattern paper would be perfect!
