Love

It was great to make some time for myself and get scrapping!!

To get a jump start I used the sketch challenge at My Creative Sketches. I also dug into my stash and used the Wildflower collection from We R Memory Keepers.

It was fun fussy cutting out some flowers to use as layers and also all those gorgeous butterflies!

The photo is of my daughter Amy and my adorable Grandson Luca.

November Clique Kits Pep Rally

Hi there and welcome!  I am joining some of the DT and members of Clique Kits to share some projects that we have created using the November kit Tapestry.
There is a challenge every month and for November it is: Anything Goes. Yay!!

I really, really love this collection by We R Memory Keepers. The colours are so rich and gorgeous!

 

This layout will go into the calendar that I give my Mom for Christmas so it can't be too dimensional but all I needed to add for extra texture was some of the beautiful ephemera and one of the free cut files that you receive when you are a Clique kit subscriber.

 

 

Here is the lineup for the hop. I hope you are inspired and please comment for a chance to win one of these gorgeous kits!

Remember Forever

I always have soooo much fun when I go away on a scrap weekend retreat with my awesome friends!

You can see from my layout that there is always much laughter! Love you Stephanie!!

I received this amazing WeR Memory Keepers "Winter Frost" collection from Scrapbook Memories and More. I have to tell you that it's definitely a new fav of mine! As you can see it does not have to be used just for winter projects.

Celebrate today

I received some gorgeous papers from Scrapbook Memories and More called Winter Frost by We R Memory Keepers and I used it today to make a card.

Seize the Birthday has a wonderful sketch this week and I am just getting my entry in on time by submitting this card. Phew!!

Alphabet Feature

For the All Play at myStampBOX this month the DT all created projects featuring alphas.

For my card I used the letters from the Friday Night Stencil stamp set and stamped them with Versamark on white cardstock, heat embossed with white embossing powder and then went over it all with Tim Holtz ink.



Stamps: myStampBOX (Friday Night Stencil)
Cardstock: SU
PP: WRMK
Ink: Tim Holtz
Misc: ribbon, button, emb. powder, Versamark, Nestabilities

 

I hope you will give this resist technique a try. Also please check out how the rest of the DT used alphas in their projects right here.



School Rules

One of my favourite paper collections right now is Hall Pass from We R Memory Keepers. It's so perfect for all your back to school layouts and projects. So happy that Cord Scrapbook Studio sent it to me to play with.

Here is another quick card using Hall Pass. Loved using my Cameo for the sentiment and the apple!
