Sweet Sara

This was a layout using my monthly kit from My Creative Scrapbook.  I love the kits you can get at least 4 page layouts from one kit and have enough to create a few cards as well.  Here I used Pink Paislee Trinkets, 2 crafty Cassie's Flourishes, ranger mini mister, K&Co Grand Adhesions stickers.  I painted the chip art and added a bit of bling

Delight in the little things....

Here is my lovely nieces being goofballs doing the same thing but at different times and locations! I used in this layout Webster pages Calico Berries, Plum Tree, Blue Bonnets, Basic Grey Kneehighs and bowties chipboard, Ingvild Bloome Shabby Chic frames.

The Ballerina Layout

This layout was a bit more fun, I used ModgePodge Kit Podgeable papers - Paris theme and Prima Flowers.  Doillies I cut in half to create a shabby look.

Time Flies

Here is another Simple layout of my niece at my other nieces Christening.  Here is used the Delight collection, Prima flowers, Ingvild Bloom Shabby Chic mini picture frame.

Keepin' it Real

This is my lovely cousins daughter who always seems to photobomb my phone everytime I'm at their house.  So I guess I think getting her back by scrappin' a page of her funny faces is a great way to get her back!! I guess she didn't think I'd keep the photos!!!  This is Crate paper DIY Shop, prima flowers and prima angel.

Bad hair Day

This is Sara and a few times after baths her hair decides to mohawk it every now and then when she was younger.  I tried to cut the image out so her hair stood out more than it already did.  In this layout I used Lyric Collection, Pacato Basic Grey Soleil mini envelopes, designer trim with a chain. 

Simple Layout

I really liked this paper that I didn't want to rip it or add anything to it as it was just so pretty for the pictures of my niece here.  I sometimes create a very simple layout that really has a great meaning behind it, simple, basic, but lovely.  In this layout I used the Delight Collection - Darling from Prima here.  I just create simple inked edges and very little added texture.

Together Layout

Here are my two lovely nieces at the Disney store section for "Princesses".  They just loved this store - who doesn't!!!  I used Prima paper Delight Collection - Darling, Decorative and Discover, lace, ribbon, powder puff ink in Ameretto, Prima Flair buttons.  I actually didn't want to alter the back paper here at it's fits the theme.

Cherish Layout

Here is my lovely niece with her face painted.  I used Prima Marketing paper Delight Collection Desitniations.  Mixed Media for this layout includes stamp ink and Paint, I stenciled the Crafters Workshop Designs by Jane, used glimmer mist Madri Gras, Blarney and Candy Apple Red, flair buttons and Prima Flowers.

Pop & Sara

My two favorite subjects to create layouts for, they are always smiling in pictures, always having a great time together!!

Here is a layout I used with my monthly kit from My Creative Scrapbook.  In this layout I used Prima paper collection Tea Tyme - Charmante as the back page, glimmer mist MadriGras by Tattered Angels, Jennie Bowlin Pearl Buttons, Gesso, Prima Marketing flowers.  This was my 1st attempt at using Gesso and painting with glimmer mist. It was fun but a bit messy - and yet it accomplishes the look I was going for.  I actually didn't want to rip or cover this paper as it was too pretty to begin with and completes the look I wanted.

Love is in the details

My scrapbooking weekend getaway consisted of me using all my monthly kit collections from My Creative Scrapbook.  I haven't had time to do any work in a few months so I took just my kits and I got about 4 layouts from one kit.  I'm sure the 'scraps' from my ripping the paper could create a card, but I needed to get a few pages done more than cards.

Here is another page I created on my weekend getaway -- Love Is in the Details.  This is my cousins daughter and their fab little Izzy!

I used Prima Marketing Tea Tyme Collection Charmuse, Cypress Rose Kersey, Prima Flowers, Imagensce iRock hot rocks - first time using this.

Visit to the American Museum of Natural History, NYC

This was my sister in law's first time to the Museum so it was really fun to show her around.  I love this museum, I go to the museum at least 2 times a year, it's a must and they have such fabulous exhibits to see all year long.

In this layout - again Prima Marketing Challis & Linsey Tea Time Collection papers, from my membership to the "My Creative Scrapbook" monthly kits, they use Prima papers almost every month!  They provide such great paper, products and it's just so darn pretty.  I also used Bazzil paper, pink, whispers embossing powder.

Title: Family Forever

West Palm Beach Zoo visit

I still love Scrapbooking {general comment here} and scrapbooking with paper more than digital. I think I still just love to rip paper - since I work with legal doc's all day - it just feels good to rip paper!!!

In this layout my brother and his two beauties were sitting on a cast iron tiger at this great little zoo we visited while on vacation in Florida.  This layout included Prima Marketing Tea Thyme Collection - Marcella & Challis paper, Tattered Angles Glimmer Mist Candy Apple Red and Whispers embossing powder. A very simple layout towards the end of a 3 day scrapbooking weekend getaway - I was tired at this point, but still enjoyed getting 3 days to scrap!!!

More supplies arrived..

This is Kaisercraft On This Day Collection. Glitz design card stock stickers. Prima Flowers of course and I think my favorite Prima Vintage Trinkets.

The beginnings of my layout

Here is how I start a layout, I get my pictures then select the papers and just move things around until I'm somewhat happy.  Here is a first go at it. It is a very simple layout right now. Like my background it's my 'clean scrapping station'.

Working from home....

It does have its privileges!! My nieces were scheduled to come over so I decided to work from home and work I did!! This was what we did all day...

Rainbow loom bracelets

Lunch today

Today I went out for lunch during work to try this new place. It was sooo good - crepes. The last time I had a really good crepe was in Japan. I had a chicken and spinach crepe for lunch and then fresh berries and creme for dessert !

Book club meeting #2

Today I meet my small group of gals for our monthly book club. Our first book to was Half Broke Horses. I liked it and it was a quick read / page turner. Tonight we decided to read Dark Places. So I hope it's a good page turner! It took a while to figure out what we all wanted to read so I hope it's worth it!

My new bracelet

New toy NutriBullet

Ok so I hate vegetables! Always have and will so I purchased the nutriBullet and made a smoothie with strawberries, raspberries, spinach leaves and Garden of Life Raw Fit that has so many vitamin that I miss from not eating veggies!
