Winter Fun

I have a layout to share using a kit from Scrapbook Circle and a sketch from Sketches in Thyme. 

For the edge I tore a strip and then punched the brown cardstock and layered them together.
The title was created using Fancy Pants Light Green Alpha's and Heidi Swapp chipboard stickers. I love that cute little metal snowflake.

Here's some more close up's of some of the other embellishments. I love that adorable cork heart and that beautiful striped button.


Thanks for stopping by! Have a scrappy day! :)

Sketches in Thyme Project Life {Carry an Umbrella}

Hello! Today I've got a Project Life card I've created and used in another traditional layout. 
I used a fun sketch that's over on Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style. Here's my take on the Project Life card sketch...
I just love that cute little bird and umbrella! I covered them in some ink and then used some Stickles. 

Here it is on my layout.

Brrrr...

Nothing like going sledding on a cold January day! We went sledding down Old Main Hill up at the USU campus. The funny part was that we didn't have sleds and the girls just went sliding down on their bums! lol 

 For this layout I followed this sketch from Scrapbook Circle and combined it with a challenge from Paper Issues.

I love a sketch that inspires me to try something new, I loved those diamonds! Definitely something a little different from my normal style.

My favorite is the foam glitter covered 'BRR'. I love a little bit sparkle. ;)
Thanks for stopping by, have a scrappy day! ;)

Scrap With Us {Winter Layout & Challenge}

Hello! How were your holidays? I hope everyone's were great! Mine were busy, busy! Although, I do enjoy the time spent with my cute little family. Now that the holidays are behind us I have a fun challenge to get you back into the swing of craftiness! ;)

Today's challenge is with Scrap With Us, if you haven't joined yet, take the time to do so! We have some other fun challenges going on there and we'd love to have you join us. :) My challenge for this month is to create a layout using a photo taken outdoors in the winter. Any photo taken during the winter season! :) Here is my layout.
I took this picture up on Utah State University Campus last year. I LOVED how the tree looked in the snow with the sun behind it. Just beautiful. We had gone sledding that day as a family. Such fun memories. :) I used Fancy Pants Timber Grove Collection. I did some faux stitching here and there and added some sequins for bit of bling.



Now join me on Scrap With Us! I would love to see your layouts!
Thanks for hanging out! :)

Scrap With Us {Merry Christmas Layout & Challenge}

Good morning! It's been sooooo cold around here! Perfect weather for scrapbooking and staying in with some hot chocolate and lots of fun scrapbooking supplies. So to give you a little extra incentive to get scrapbooking I have a fun challenge (actually a total of 4 challenges!) for you over at Scrap With Us along with an awesome prize! Read more about it on the blog- HERE.

The cold weather here was my inspiration for this challenge. We had some beautiful snow for Thanksgiving and it was followed by a nasty cold snap. The only good thing about this cold snap is the gorgeous frost on the trees. So much sparkle! :) So my challenge to you is to create a layout with some SPARKLE to it! You can use Stickles, sequins, glitter, glittery washi tape, etc. Anything that will add a little sparkle. :) 

I used Moxxie's new line, Season's Greetings. I just LOVE the colors and those adorable deer along the bottom. For my sparkles I used Stickles and sequins. 
Here's a little close up of some of the sparkle. :)

Now go check out all the fun challenges at Scrap With Us! 
Thanks for stopping by! :)

If the Slipper Fits Layout

Good morning! How many of you do Project Life (PL)? I love to use the cards on a traditional scrapbook layout but I have yet to try actual pocket scrapbooking. Today Sketches in Thyme Project Style Life has a fun new sketch to share with you to create your very own PL card. Here is my take the sketch. 
I rounded the corners on 3x4 card. I added some silver glitter washi tape along the top. Also using the same glitter tape to cover a chipboard heart. I popped the heart up with some pop-up glue dots.
This sweet little girl loved those dress up shoes. Even though she couldn't walk she had to have them on her feet. Here's a close up of some of the details.

Make sure to stop by Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style to see the sketch and play along with us! We would love to see your take on it!
Thanks for stopping by. :)

Home Grown Layout

Good morning! We have had some rainy days and had our first little bit of snow this last weekend! I'm not sure I'm ready for it, I still want to enjoy more of the beautiful fall weather where the leaves are gorgeous colors and the temperature outside is just perfect. 
How about you, are you ready for the snow?

Today I have fun 2 page layout to share with you from back in 2011 when we had a garden. The hubby built 3 little boxes so each of the girls could plant their own little garden in them. They did such  a good job of taking care weeding and watering them. So when my sister and brother in law came up for a visit they just had to show off their hard work and share some of the yummy goodies they had grown.

It was a fun layout to work on with all the embellishments. I did some faux stitching, used a punch and even got in some washi tape. :) Here's a few close up's of all those fun details.
Thanks for stopping by! :)
