Labor Day

It has been 3 months since I have scrapped for myself. It felt sooo good! Talk about paper therapy!

Idea from Sept CK. PP: Basic Grey and SEI (and a scrap of pebbles inc). CS: coredinations (i sanded the edges to bring out the light blue core...so cool!) Bazzill Just Edges. And my new favorite product...Ghost letters from Heidi Swapp. They come white and you can ink or paint them with any color to match your project. The ghost lines show up after you ink.

A Couple Layouts and a Card

Here's a couple layouts I did a few weeks back and finally got around to posting.

Greg's B-day: pattern paper - Crate Paper, alphabet stickers - Creative Imaginations, Punches - EK Success, ribbon - Wild Asparagus, pen - Zig, brad - Making Memories

Remembering Valerie: pattern paper - Sassafras, cardstock - Bazzill, flowers and brads - Making Memories, rubons - Scrapworks

And I made this card (the front and inside are pictured) for a paper crafting swap that I'll be in once a month. It turned out to be an awesome swap! My card was the smallest thing exchanged, so next time I will be stepping it up.

XOXO card: pattern paper: Scrapworks, punch: EK Success, ink: CTMH, ribbon - Ofray, metal heart: Making Memories, beads: Western Trim, Shaved Ice - Creative Imaginations

Here's what I have done

So I scrapped a few weeks ago with some friends in the ward and this is what I did! I kinda tributed the night to Maddie since I only had a handful of pages in her book. I wish I could scrap more, but I got another intense assignment from qk and so you won't see anything more from me for a few more weeks, until after my overnight crop later in September!

monogram goodness

oh my...a little sneak peek at my latest project. it will be in our family room. will post the finished project when it is finished.

Maegen was crafty for the new "kids" bathroom that all the visiting adults use.

here is the album cover to my summer study abroad album. the pages will follow throughout the next few months!

Our 3rd Anniversary & Happy Birthday to You

These are the last and first pages of my current albums, so I was able to do some one pagers. They sure are much faster than a two page layout; each of them only took me about 20 minutes.

Our 3rd Anniversary: NRN pattern paper, CTMH chipboard and ink, Making Memories definition sticker, Provo Craft deco scissors, Michaels rhinestones, and a couple Zig pens and a whole lot of doodling

Happy Birthday to You: Fancy Pants pattern paper, Cosmo Cricket chipboard, Doodlebug i-lets, Provo Craft Coluzzle, CTMH ink, EK Success corner rounder, and Zig pen
