Stuart and Leo - Airplane Ride

I was excited to see The Paper Variety's challenge this week. As soon as I saw it, I ran downstairs to make this layout! I had these pictures and a couple of new (to me) Cricut cartridges I wanted to use.  The airplane is from Heritage (I ran it through my crimper and added some pop dots to add a little dimension).  The big Echo Park circle is from one called Elegant Edges. This is going to be my new go to Cricut cartridge I think. It made this layout come together pretty easily with no sketch! I pop dotted two of the small clouds. I had punched out the tiny clouds when I was at the Phoenix Scrapbook Cottage in anticipation of using them somewhere fun.   The large cloud is a Sizzix die and has been used as a mask several times.   I decided to let it have a permanent home here on this layout!  The background is BasicGrey, and I had been waiting for the right photos so that I could stop hoarding it! The stickers are SRM Stickers.

Snow days

I made another Echo Park layout! This time it is for The Last April Sketch hosted by Sweet Peach Crop Shop! I really liked Liz Chidester's sketch this time!  I was tickled to make my own felt/denim/button/twine embellies for this!!!  I also added liquid glass to the red/letter part of the banner. As usual, my layout looks better in person!!! But, I hope you enjoy it! I thought it turned out pretty well... :-)

Thanks so much for looking at my blog! If you have time, please leave me a comment so I know you were here!
Hope you have a great weekend!!!

My Sister's Wedding - 1988

In the midst of our impending blizzard here in the Midwest, I have suddenly gotten the scrapbooking mojo going!  Three layouts in a row!  I made Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday's layouts on Monday and thought I's spread them out over the week! I used Sweet Peach Crop Shop's beautiful January sweet kit that I won earlier this month and their January sketch to create this layout! I did add some Kaiser Pearls, a little lace from my stash and some Prima flowers (just because they matched the paper perfectly)! Sweet Peach Crop Shop's kits are a lot of fun!

Black and White Birthday Card

For this challenge, I was to use the scraps from Workout 26 or 27 on Scrapfit! The only thing I didn't use on my layout was the brad in the middle of the flower.  I used the ribbon's back for the layout! In the card, I used the front (polka dot) which I really think is cute!
