1st Day Layout

Hey everyone,

Today I am sharing a layout of Jayden's first day of Kindergarten.

All papers are Doodlebug. The little fabric cut outs (the glue, star, and apple) are left over fabric from Jayden's 1st day outfit that her Aunt Rachel made special for her to wear. The buttons are from my stash. The little red backpack button is on pop dots (its adorable! I LOVE IT!). The title is Thickers and the ribbons are both from my stash.

Baby Girl Harmony Layout

WOW... I can't believe its been so long since I last posted on here... time just has a way of getting away. 

Anyway, today I have a layout to share.

For this layout I used mainly DCWV papers. The background paper is some mint cardstock that I just have in my stash. The title was cut with the Silhouette. The buttons were in my stash and I used a button embossing folder for the pink paper behind the pic of Harmony. The green ribbon at the bottom of the pics is from May Arts.

Love You layout

It's just incredible how quickly Harmony has grown... gonna be 3 in Sept. I cant believe it. The pics on this layout are of Harmony in the hospital. Harmony is a little over 14 hours old in these pics, the top pic is taken at 10:23PM PST, and the bottom pic was taken at 10:27PM PST.

For this layout the majority of the papers are from Me and My Big Ideas (MAMBI).. the card stock is from Recollections. The title is stamped on and the little banner above the pics is stamped too. I used some Studio Calico wood veneers and a big pink button. The ribbon is from Recollections also. The button and bow are attached with Terrifically Tacky Tape and everything else is adhered with ATG tape.

CWC #95 Buttons or Brads

This week the CWC challenge is to make a project with buttons or brads. So come on over and join in our fun!

For my project I made this layout using the following carts: 9 months & Imagine Nursery tails

Pretty simple layout all the papers are DCWV. I followed a scrapbook sketch to make this layout. Both pics are 4x6 and this page was made for a scrapbook thats being maid for my Mother in laws 50th birthday gift. Each person was supposed to make a 2 page layout.. I made 2 different 2 pages layouts one set from each of my girls.

The "it's a girl" cut is from Nursery Tails imagine cart.

And the buttons both the shinny round purple one and the purple heart one are from my stash. I tied a bow on the round button with purple bakers twine.

I used a white gel pen to stitch around the purple papers.

The title is cut from the 9 months cart.

I hope you'll consider joining in the fun this week over at Cooking With Cricut.

The Sign Layout

Well.. I did it!!! I am now over my goal 4 layouts in 3 days, which is great because it means I have an extra day (we all know how that goes) I know Im gonna end up scrapping one day and falling behind my goal but to be able to say Im ahead of it.. even if it won't last.. is awesome news! Hopefully thow.. I stay on track and keep up my good work.

This is another layout of hospital pics of Jayden I used the Get Picky August Sketch #11 for this layout. I liked the pleated ribbon on my other layout so much I decided to try it again. I have issues.. when I learn something new I do it non stop for awhile lol.. but I think this will be the last layout with pleated ribbon for awhile. All the little paper flowers I had in my stash some are held on with brads (and I used my Big Bite II to punch the layout) and others are glued on with an irock gem in the middle.. (I told you I have trouble letting go of new things lol).

As far as the background paper.. well I made that myself.. not too bad eh? I used some of the paper scraps from my last layout (with the hang line of onsies) and used the onsie cut remains as a stencil and then I used pink & purple chalk in to fill in the onsies. Since I have onsies all over I figured what better thing to journal on than a onsie.. I cut this one out with Life's A party at 3 1/4 inches and popped it up with.. yup you guessed it.. pop dots lol. "The Sign" is also cut from Life's A Party the lower case are 3/4 inch and the capitals are 1 inch. I outlined the title with white scribbles 3d paint to help it stand out a bit. And to finish the page off I put a little pink button in the top corner with pink bakers twine tied in a knot and a purple button over my pink bow also with pink bakers twine.. but I tied this bakers twine into a bow.
