I am the guest Designer for the month of June over at the Clique Kits blog and I have a post up today.

I hope you will pop over and say Hi!!

Here are a couple sneak peeks.

Sparkle and Shine Challenge #18

Can you believe that it's time for another challenge at Sparkle and Shine Challenge?

Here is my project for our latest challenge. I created a layout that will find its place in a calendar gift.

PP, Stickers: Echo Park (Jack & Jill)

Sequins: PPP (Aquamarine, Metallic Gold)

Ink: Memento

Punch: EK

Stickers: Pink Fresh

 

Our photo inspiration this week caught my attention with the Fall colours.

 

I hope you can play along and possibly win a gift card from Winnie & Walter since they are the sponsor this week!

 

I'll leave you with a couple of close-up shots.

 

 

 



 

Puppy Love

I played along with Sketch #134 at Let's Capture our Memories.

I was able to create another layout to add one of the calendars that I am making for Christmas. The photo is of my Grandson Luca and my Grandfurbaby Gabby...hee hee!!

PP & stickers: Carta Bella (Baby Mine)

Wood piece: Pink Fresh

Stickers: A.C.

Clique Kits - October Pep Rally

Well it is time for another Pep Rally at Clique Kits. Good morning everyone! Yes I know that I have been MIA for awhile. These last few months have been a whirlwind but I will get into that in a different blog post.

I just had to join in with the Pep Rally this month now that I am able and had the time. They are so much fun and it's inspiring to see what everyone else has created with their kits!
You should have arrived here from Evi's fabulous blog.

October's kit was called "Funfetti" and yes it is totally fun!

Here is my layout using an adorable PinkFresh Studio paper as my base. It made it so quick and easy to create a layout.

 

I made feathers from the gorgeous Crate Paper Vellum and embellished with the wood veneer and some flair from my stash.

 

 

Isn't this alpha from PinkFresh amazing??

 

 

The gold confetti sequins are so perfect. Love them! I added some Pebbles felt clouds from my stash too.

 

Here is the whole line up for the hop. I know you will enjoy all the fabulous inspiration!

First Day of School

I had a few adorable photos of Ryan and Evan on the first day back to school in September and they lent themselves so well for the sketch at Creative Scrappers.

I used a couple of photos of him after the paddle was over to use on my layout.

Love those Pink Fresh alphas!

 

 

I also love my Colorshine!

 

I used the sketch at Stuck?! Sketches. It's a fun one for sure!

I am also entering my layout into the September challenge at Clique Kits.

I am also linking this up with Paper Issues Anything Goes challenge.
