Sledding layout

Hey everyone,

Today I have this colorful sledding layout to share!

I cut the snowman out with my cricut. I cut the title and snowflake out with my Cameo. I stamped on the date and I added a little flair right next to the date. To help the title stand out a little more I outlined in black pen. The heart next to the snowman is on pop dots and I finished the layout off with a little pearl in the middle of the snowman.

Isn't She Wonderful Layout

Hey everyone,

Today I have a cute pink layout to share. These are pics of my new baby cousin.. so cute (but I had to blur them out sorry). 

I used mainly Imaginisce papers and some DCWV. The tag on the bottom has the Twinery Bakers Twine in blossom. I inked the edges of all the papers and pics with black ink. The tickets on top are a design I made myself in the Silhouette Design Studio, I also cut the heart and title with my Cameo. The title has pink Stickles on the "Wonderful" and a few down in the corners. I fussy cut some of the shapes (a small heart, bottle at the top and a little foot on the bottom left of the left pic) and they are all on pop dots. 

I am entering this layout into the following challenges:

Adorable Chicks Layout

Hey everyone!

Today I have a layout to share. This is Harmony and our two Ameraucana chicks, Cleo (gold), and Oreo (black/gray). These pics were taken this summer and they're already full grown and well.. Oreo isn't the precious hen I was hoping for... she turned into a lovely rooster lol. They're so adorable together though. Harmony LOVED to hold them any chance she could, and still does if they'll let her (but they won't lol). 

 

I cut the title and other die cuts (chicks hearts etc) with my silhouette cameo. I used pop dots for 2 of the chicks. The rest of the page is adhered with zig 2 way glue and ATG tape. My red and green and gray papers are all scraps. The red feather is stenciled on with a stencil i made with my cameo.

Visitors Layout

Hey everyone,

Tonight I have a layout of Harmony and some of her hospital visitors the day she was born. I used all imaginisce papers, some pink pearls, thickers, pink ink, and a white chalk marker. I adhered everything with ATG tape. This was actually the fastest page I've done since I don't even remember doing one this fast before it took me less than 30 mins that includes picking out the pics.

Growing Up Layout

Hey everyone!

Today I'm sharing a layout of Jayden.  This pic is taken during her 3 year old photoshoot I did (she just celebrated her 5th birthday a month ago). The theme for her 3rd party was alice in wonderland. 

I made the cute little top hat embellishment using my Silhouette Cameo, some pink & purple feathers and some pink pearls. The title I also made with my Silhouette, as well as the feathers and the doily. One of the feathers I inked white and then inked the edges with pink ink (Dr. Seuss' Sleep book just popped into my head lol... Jayden can recite this book so well and the pink ink is her fav part lol). The hat & "up" part of the title are on pop dots. I designed the arrow pointing up with the word up inside of it in DE. I sprayed glimmer mist & silver ink mist in a few different places on the layout.

Big Boy Nautical Layout

The circle inside the life savor is the photo mat.

I used my cricut & Life is a beach to cut the life ring and waves (along with my gypsy). The title is cut from Boys will be boys. I tied the square knot with some hemp string and looped it through all the holes on the life savor. The paper was in my stash.

Grandpa's lil Pumpkin layout

Layout I made for the imaginisce challenge this month.

I used all imaginisce paper except the corrugated cardboard strip & the paper used for the title and the pumpkins. I cut the ovals for the pumpkins with Cricut Craft Room Basics. The title was cut with Mini Monsters and the other text I cant remember for sure put I think it was Plantin Schoolbook. I used the irock and some orange gems in the top corners and for the dot on the "i" in "lil". All of the text is dotted with white gel pen and the pumpkins are inked around the edges in dark brown. I also inked the cardboard and parts of the background with brown ink.
