Scrap Friends

Image
There is one event that I look forward to all  year long! It's the annual Scrapbooking Retreat that happens on October. I go with my friends and my sister and her/our friends. It is, without a doubt, so much fun. What could be better than spending an entire weekend doing nothing but scrapbooking and chatting with your friends?! There is a short hike and great view near the lodge where we stay and every year we try to get a little bit of exercise and then show that we did by taking a selfie at the top. To scrapbook this selfie I used a sketch from Sketch n Scrap .  The Layout: These are my scrap friends :) The Sketch: Another look at my layout: To Create this Layout I used: Carta Bella: Hello Again paper pack Miss Kate's Cuttables: banner Alexis Mattox - Emma Rae font - tag font Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge - tag Blueberry Regular system font via DS Carpe Diem: Faith - decorative clip twine Thank you so much for stoppi...

I am a Guest Designer at  Lasting Memories Scrapbook Layout Challenges  this month! And, I'm so excited to share the third layout challenge for the month!  Two years ago in July it will be two years since we bought and moved into our current house. I was so excited about it and mostly because it was on a culdesac, which I have always thought to be the perfect type of street to live on. It has definitely lived up to all I thought it would be. We have amazing neighbors and it's such a quiet street. I am blessed! For this challenge I decided to scrap two of the photos we took, one of my husband and I signing the papers and one of the house itself. The Challenge: TULIP The theme for April is - Word Play -  and you are to  use an item or technique for every letter of the chosen spring word for this week Two photos Us sticker Love Inking Pattern paper My Layout: To Create This Layout I Used: My Mind's Eye: Lost and Found - Breeze pap...

I Love My Daughter

Image
One of the things I love to do is take my kiddos out on dates alone. On this particular day it was time to take my daughter out for some mommy and daughter time. She loves the idea of coffee, even though I do not let her have actual coffee. She gets hot chocolate. But, I do like to take her on an occasional coffee date just her and I. Being a scrapper we had to take a selfie with our coffee cups! I used a sketch from the Let's Get Sketchy blog .  The Sketch: And My Take: To Create this Layout I used: DCWV: Flower Shop paper stack Project Life: Love Life - photo overlay Pebbles - Epherma - & Cricut Cartridge: Love You a Latte - coffee cup Design Space - to write title on cup Computer Font - Axettac Demo Carpe Diem - decorative "love" clip Lovesvg.com - title "I love my daughter" Heidi Swapp: vellum epherma - butterfly Thank you so much for stopping by!
