Sweetness and sunlight

Made a page about my son using the Echo Park "Scoot" collection again.... down to its bare bones now, but I got a few good layouts out of it :) I also used Heidi Swapp mistable chipboard arrows, Prima flowers, and some realy beautiful ZVA flourishes - a big one, as well as a couple smaller ones.

Nostalgia

I always loved that word for some reason, and it totally inspired me to scrap this photo of myself... I am always so serious in all my photos. The Graphic 45 "ABC Primer" collection was absolutely perfect for the photo and title. I also used Prima flowers and buttons form random collections. The gorgeous swirls are by ZVA. I totally ran out of the black flourishes, so the ones I used on the top left of the page I had to color from clear crystal to black with a Black 100 Copic marker. I think it came out perfect.

Can't get enough of The Avenues

The Avenues (Summer CHA release from Bo Bunny) is to die for - I love everything about it. I decided to create a layout about our new hamster, Luna - she's a Chinese hamster and soooo cute and sweet. I used paper from the Avenues collection, along with various elements as well - layered stickers, bling, and some wood clocks from the Bo Bunny kraft collection. The black flourishes are by ZVA Creative :)

Something frightful this way comes...

Halloween, that is! Wanted to share a LO today about my son dressed as knight last year for Halloween. I used the really versatile new "Fright Delight" collection by Bo Bunny - it really offers something for everyone, and would be just as perfect for a teenage layout as for a little kid layout. I used paper, Noteworthy, jewels, brads, chipboard sticker, regular stickers, and layered stickers from the collection. That chipboard tree that I cut up to look like creepy flourishes is my favorite embellie!!

My sweetest little cub...

Sharing a LO of my daughter with little wolf cub ears on, using the gorgeous "Rosewood" collection from Colorbok. The embellishments are from the Heidi Grace "Cartwheel" collection - gem lines, chipboard swirls, die-cut flowers and leaves, stitched borders, and cloth flowers. I just love how this collection goes so well with so many of the different Colorbok collections I've been getting to play with over the last few months. I'm really loving designing for Colorbok/Making Memories!

World Card Making Day!

Hi guys, a couple Bo Bunny cards using the fun and funky Zip-A-Dee-Doodle collection. This line is so fun and so easy to throw together for some quick cards, especially using the Bo Bunny cut-apart sheets. I also used a lot of the bling frfom the collection, and Bo Bunny cardstock for the second card's base - it's really nice and thick and perfect for card-making.

Happy October, and... a summery layout!

Well, summer is most definitely over (being October and all), so of course I was tempted by the gorgeous "Boardwalk" collection from Colorbok. I really love the super warm colors and all the black edging and distressing. Perfect for a summery layout, and for a boy layout (since theat's my son in the pic, from a few years ago).



The cloth flowers, layered butterflies, epoxy circles, and the gem trails are all from the Heidi Grace "Cartwheel" collection. The gems came in straight lines and I twisted them a bit to make little flight trails for the butterflies. I also embellished the butterfly wings with the epoxy circles. The "POOL" letters and the little flags and banners are all cut out from the "Boardwalk" collection's cut-apart element sheets.

Using up the last bits...

Today, I wanted to share some projects with the "Surprise" collection from Bo Bunny. I really love this collection, and had already made a pretty big mini with it, so I didn't have a whole lot left - just one full sheet and a bunch of scraps (left over from cutting out the mini album pages). SO I thought it would be fun (and useful) to finish it all off. I had the one full sheet, which was perfect for doing a layout, and I figured I could make a bunch of cards with the scraps.

My kids have a constant stream of friends' birthday parties to go to, and almost every weekend I need a cute little card for a kid's birthday party. I know as soon as the kid gets home, the card is likely going in the trash, so I didn't want to make anything too fancy - just fun, bright, and cheerful.

So first off, here is my layout. Even though this is a very birthday-themed collection, this particular sheet was perfect for a non-birthday layout.



And here are all the cards... I ended up making 9, and I actually had some more scraps left over - I could probably squeeze another few cards out of it. I simply used paper, images cut out from the paper, stickers from the collection, some brads, pop dots, and a chipboard embellie from the collection.

Loving the new Bo Bunny collections!!

I really love all the new Bo Bunny collections from this summer's CHA, so I decided to try to include a whole bunch of them on this LO :) I used "Elf Magic", "The Avenues", and "Silver & Gold". They're all so different, and you'd never think they would go together, but all the Bo bunny lines always mix and match so well!







The photo is of my daughter from last year's Halloween... I can't believe we're almost at that time again.

Life in the fast lane!

Not long ago, I scrapped a super cute pic of my son (well, at least I think so ;) The EP "Scoot" collection was perfect - the images, the colors, matched not just the photo itself, but my son's personality as well.

Create!

Wow, it's been a couple weeks since I've posted, and all I can say is... school started and things got busy! But I think they're starting to get back into something of a routine, so I'm back :)

I wanted to share a LO I created a few weeks ago, but never got around to posting. I used MME paper ...the last tiny bit I had left of that collection - Miss Caroline - Fiddlesticks... I soooo love this collection. The phtos are of my kids coloring/drawing/etc at my scrap table. In my scrap room, I have one of those huge, fold-out, plastic banquet tables, so I use one half, and on the other half, I put two chairs for them, so we can all create together.

Happy September!!

How can it be September already?? Well, today I'm sharing a layout using the new collection by Bo Bunny "The Avenues". The challenge was to use stamps, and it was perfect for this assignment - since DS is posing in front of a tree, I wanted to add a wood grain pattern to the LO, and the wood grain stamp allowed me to do just that.

Beach Fun

Last day of my OA project share!! This is my daughter at the beach last June (which was perfect, since the pp had a June date on it too :)

A Boardwalk Birthday

Using up more of my OA papers - this layout features a mix of many different collections. I added glossy accents to the banners to add some emphasis.
