By the Shore Collection.....Beach Layout

Here is a look at a Beach Layout I created from the Stampin' UP! 

BY THE SHORE DESIGN PAPER COLLECTION

 I also used some Cricut Lettering and shapes from Life's a Beach along with a Stamp from one of my

Stampin' Up Hostess Gift Sets.

 I love this Design Paper and the coordinating Cardstock Pack...I hope you feel as inspired by it as I do!

Live, Laugh, Celebrate Layout

Just wanted to share a quick layout I made at one of my recent retreats.

It is always fun to get away for a few days and just hang out with the ladies!

I have dates booking fast for this fall so if you haven't booked your seat yet.....

hurry and save a seat now.

Hope everyone is having a great summer.

We have been having so much fun with our Exchange student from Spain.  I hope to post some pictures on Monday to share some of our adventures.

Design Time Thursday: Lets Hop Strolling through the Park!!

Hello Ladies....Just a quick reminder to let you know there is still time to enter this weeks Challenge-Strolling through the Park Theme
All of the beautiful patterned paper is from Momenta I love their Family Outings Stack has soooooo many wonderful colors and themes....it's a Happy Paper Collection....visit their site HERE.

Here is my 2 Page Layout I created using all 4 Elements. 

There is just a small touch of glitter glue on the clouds along with embossing.  There is some embossing & white marshmallow glimmer mist on the grass on the right side.

Here is a close up of one of the metal charms-there are two on this layout.  I also used my Bow Maker to make the three brown bows on this layout.

Here is one last look at the layout.

Christmas Layout with a Twist

I wanted to create a layout featuring my sons with their new toys from Christmas but I didn't want to create the typical Christmas Layout.

I used the Heidi Gracce: Daydream paper collection with its beautiful brown, blue, green color schemed that just screamed....boy page!

I also used the really cute font from the Robots Cricut Cartridge and my Gypsy to create the Title. 

Making the banner at the top and adding in some journaling in my own writing finish off the page.

I like to think of my style as Clean and Simple with a Twist...today's twist is 

a Christmas Layout without the traditional Christmas Look.

I will be entering this layout in the Pumpkin Spice March Challenge: Boy Crazy

Hope you Like it!

Quick & Easy Layout: Precious Time

Precious Time....

We all want more of it...we are always using it up.  Now come the holidays and we seem to loose it faster & faster every day!!

Well take a minute to smell the roses....play with the little ones...or just reflect on that precious time.

Make sure that memories you are making are the ones you can't wait to put in a scrapbook page not the ones you wish you could do over.

Let's all take a breath and enjoy this holiday season

enjoy the food

enjoy the music

enjoy the laughter & joy of young ones

enjoy the crisp winter air

enjoy the memories of family and friends!

Sketch Challenge Pt.2 & Winners announced....

Here is my take on this week's Design Time Thursday Sketch Challenge:

It is hard to see here but the snowmen and the snowy hills have snow texture on them.

I flipped the sketch upside down to create my layout

I plan to put pictures of my kids playing on the hill by our home during their Holiday Break.  We may see snow today here in Utah-I may even get some early pictures to add soon!!!

I used mainly paper from my stash and of course my Cricut.
It's time to announce our winner for the Give Thanks Challenge
