Scrap Queen

 We don't go bowling often because my kids like it but don't love it. I took some photos when we went with some friends. Figured I better scrap one of the few times we actually bowl! To scrap these photos I used a sketch challenge from the Sketch n Scrap challenge blog . I changed it a little bit to add a second photo. My Layout: The Sketch: To Create this Layout I Used: American Crafts Project Life: kraft edition paper pack Echo Park: The Story of Our Family sticker elements - journal strips Little Yellow Bicycle: chipboard stickers - star and "chillin" tabby Illustrated Faith Bella Blvd: diecuts - "let's do this" and tabby Suburbia Cricut DS Image: bowling pin and bowling shoe Zaragoza Std Font via the DS: title "Bowling" Twine from my stash Now it's your turn! Thank you so much for stopping by! Blessings,

 I don't know what it is about photos of people walking but I like them. These photos of the kids walking around at Silverwood Amusement Park  are so cute. I believe these photos were taken by my friend Gina. I used some really wild papers for this layout. It's so busy it's almost too much but I think I'm kind of in love with it.  To scrap these photos I used a challenge on the Rochelle Spears and the Scrap With Stacy blogs. I will also enter this layout in a challenge from the A Cherry on Top forum.  My Layout: The Sketch from  Rochelle Spears The Tic Tac Toe Challenge from  Scrap With Stacy I included embellie clusters, vellum, and foam letters The Embellishment Challenge from  A Cherry on Top list of ingredients: 1.

 Here is another layout from our trip to Silverwood for the photo shoot.

 We spent a lot of time at Silverwood during the summer of 2019. We had season passes and we definitely used them. This particular day at the park was devoted to a photo shoot for  Silverwood . Some of these photos were used in their advertisements. The photos were taken by my friend Gina.  To create this layout I used the Remix challenge from the Scrap Our Stash   challenge blog and combined it with a challenge on the A Cherry on Top challenge forum.  My Layout: The Sketch Challenge: To Create this Layout: DCWV: Sweet & Sassy paper stack Simple Stories: "So Happy Together" enamel dots Me & My Big Ideas: Mambi Chips - stickers Bella Blvd: Illustrated Faith diecuts/ephemera Studio G: diecuts/ephemera Close to My Heart: "Free Spirit" Acrylix Stamps (tag and title) Flower stamps from my stash (by title) The Twinery : Yellow Twine Thank you so much for stopping by!

 Two summers ago we went to Fort Steel in Canada and it was so much fun! It was like walking back in time! We met the locals and got to experience how they lived when the town was occupied by people that are not tourists. To scrapbook this layout I used a sketch challenge at Scrap Our Stash   My Layout: The Sketch: To create this layout I used: My Mind's Eye: Lost and Found Ephemera Brads from my stash Twine from my stash Colorbok: Wild Rose paper stack Pebbles: photo overlays My Mind's Eye: Lost & Found ephemera Seasonal Sample Cricut Design Space - Mountain diecut Country Life Cricut Font: title - "Fort Steele" Heritage Design Space: Scroll Pajama Cricut Font on scroll: "Stepping into the past" Thank you for stopping by!

 One of our favorite places to spend the summer is at our local amusement park, Silverwood . The water park is the best place to be on a hot day and we spent plenty of time there! To scrap some pics I took of Grace and her friend Scout I used a challenge put up by the Lasting Memories Layout Challenges blog.  The Challenge: LM #530 - "Places" - Create a layout of a favorite place you've visited.  Perhaps it's a landmark, a city, the beach, a favorite restaurant, etc. My Layout: To Create this Layout I used: DCWV: Sweet & Sassy Paper stack Project Life: "Explore" photo overlay American Crafts: "Colorful" puffy stickers Jillibean Soup: Puffy Stickers Twine from my stash Cuttlebug diecutting machine: tag dies Washi tape from my stash Thank you so much for stopping by, Blessings,

  My daughter landed the lead in a local RV commercial last year, Blue Dog RV . She had a blast playing the part of the Orientation Specialist. She had quite a few lines and some changed the day of the shoot. She was a trooper and amazed the director with her ability to memorize so quickly. It was also my son's first time being in a commercial. Unfortunately, his part ended up on the cutting room floor. But, if you look closely you can see him in the background in the beginning of the commercial. Tough breaks. He was part of the day so on the layout he goes!

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 figth and final layout challenge for the month!  I decided to continue scrapping our move into our current home. We had decided to replace the carpets sooner rather than later due to the carpets smelling poorly after being shampooed. They needed replacing anyway, so why wait?! Since the carpets were pulled up we decided to pain the entire upstairs. It became a family affair and of course I took photos of everyone doing their part! My Layout : The Challenge: The challenges for April are all going to be word challenges where you use scrappy items or techniques for every letter of the word for that week.  This Week's Word is: RAIN Red Arrows Illustrated Faith New Coat of Paint - title To Create this Layout I used: We R Memory Keepers: Sports paper stack Illustrated Faith: Bright and Brave - arrow tab an...
