Christmas Layout

Hello Everybody!

I am so happy about this layout!  I have been wanting to scrap this photo-but I couldn't find the right sketch until yesterday! The sketch at Sketches in Thyme was perfect.

My friend and I went to Disney Springs and had the best time.  We ate, shopped, saw decorated Christmas tress--and then we got to see Santa Claus!

I used a lot of Doodlebug Home for the Holidays for this layout.  I sprinkled red smooch spritz (yeah that's old!) on the white card stock background.  Most of the stickers are from Doodlebug too.  There are a few rub ons and letters from Making Memories.  At the top I used twine and jute for the tags.  

I would like to submit this to the following challenges:

Challenge YOUself: #64 Favorite Holiday--Christmas is definitely one of my favorite holidays!  I'm on the right :)

Sketches in Thyme: Here's the sketch:

Use Your Stuff:  #356 Use String, Yarn, or Twine --The 3 tags at the top left have twine or jute.

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time my friends...It's starting to look a lot like Christmas...(ok it's not but I do love Christmas!) :)

Beach Day Layout

Hello Everybody!

Today I am sharing a layout I created that were inspired by a theme challenge and a sketch challenge.  

First-Here is my layout:

The sketch is from Sketches In Thyme.  I used Echo Park paper and some scraps.  I also found some brads in my stash-and I don't know about you but when I use up stuff I have had for a very long time-I am very happy! 

This is sketch #335

The theme of this layout was inspired by Challenge YOUrself.  The theme was to have a picture of myself at the beach.  And since I just went-I thought Yay!  Time to scrap a recent picture :)

Thank you for stopping by today!  Until next time my friends..."Beach Hair-Don't Care!"

A Lovely Tea Party

Hello Everybody!

Here is a page I made for my Mom-in-law.  We went to a Tea Party on last Saturday.  I wanted to make her a page from that event and this great sketch at Sketches in Thyme jumped out at me.  Here's my take on the sketch:

Here's the sketch.

I used a variety of things such as American Crafts and Graphic 45 letters, papers from the Rustic stack by DCWV, and word stickers.  I used some bling from Making Memories and a tag from Tim Holtz.  I used gold leafing around the tag.

Thanks for stopping by!  Until next time my friends....have a good night!

Family Lunch Scrapbook Page

Hello Everybody!

Today I was able to make a scrapbook page for the sketch at Sketches In Thyme #107.  I used papers from Echo Park and DCWV.  The tag was made using a punch, and I distressed it with distress ink.

Here is a close up of the papers and photo.  I used a Tim Holtz game piece and 13 to be like 2013.  I don't know if I will connect the 2 twenty years from now ;)

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time my friends have a good day! :)
