Imaginisce 2012 Disney Layout

Hey everyone,

I have this cute Disney layout to share with you.

The pics are from our winter 2012 Disneyland trip. I cut the Mickey head and ears with my silhouette cameo. The papers are from the Imaginisce Scooters Vacation line. I added a red button to the bottom Mickey head and 2 red sequins on the sides of the title. "2012" title is Thickers. 



I am loving this layout. I find the simplicity and clean colors very appealing. 

I am entering this layout into the following challenges:
Simon Says - Inspired by a Song ( 2012 - Jay Sean) 
Scrap Much - Feb Colours (I used red, yellow, aqua, & black)

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:
DL.ART - #174 pink red and/or hearts (I used pink & hearts)
Simon Says - Monday challenge Inspired By A Song  (Isn't she Lovely - Stevie Wonder)
Clique Kits - Anything goes
Really Reasonable Ribbon - Celebrate (new baby)
More Than Words - Wonderful & Sparkle (Wonderful is part of my title and I used stickles a few
places + some of the embellishments are glittery)

Presents Layout

Hey everyone...

It's getting pretty close to Christmas. I'm surprised I've had a chance to scrap recently :). Today I am sharing a Christmas layout of me & Harmony.

I followed the sketch for DCWV December stack-a-holic challenge.

I used the Sparkling Holiday stack.


I cut the snowflakes, title, and ornaments with my Silhouette. 


The triangles and tag were cut by hand.


I love all the shiny gold on this layout.



I tied on some wired gold ribbon on the tag, which is on pop dots.



The circular gold cut by the title is an Imaginisce punch.

1 Month Harmony layout

Hi everyone!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and you're having a safe Black Friday.

Today I would like to share this layout of my youngest daughter Harmony.


The blue butterfly background was cut down to size and then I cut the title out with my silhouette. I placed my 2" wide Coral Nylvalour Velvet Ribbon under the title and put the background title paper on pop dots.




I cut the hearts out and added them in place as well as the little banner. I finished the layout off with a wood veneer heart next to the heart at the bottom and added my journaling in white gel pen. I hope you enjoyed looking at my layout today!

Santa Layout

Hey everyone,

Today I have a cute Christmas layout to share. These are pics of my girls and my nephews with Santa in 2012. Its a tradition for my brother (and his wife) and I (and Adam) to take all 4 of our kids to get their pictures with Santa every year ever since my oldest nephew was born we always go to the same Santa. Last year he wasn't there :( we were kinda bummed and unfortunately, for some reason, we didn't do all 4 kids together and I think it had something to do with us not being able to get our schedules to work together. So anyway, here is my Santa layout.






I used DCWV stacks (Candy Cane Lane, Storybook Christmas, and Christmas & Winter Card Stock) to make this layout. The tags have burlap twine tied on them and the title is Thickers. I think my favorite thing about this layout is the Santa card in the middle of the pics because it fits with Harmony crying so well LOL.

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.

Cheesecloth Ghost

Hey everyone,
Today I want to share a cute halloween ghost decoration.



The ghost is pretty easy to make and super cute when done. All you need is some black felt, cheese cloth, liquid starch, scissors, hot glue, and 5/8" red wired satin ribbon. You will also need something for a form to sculpt ur ghost (i used a balloon and a vase).




You soak the cheese cloth in the liquid starch than drap it around a form or base to make the shape. Let dry over night. Remove from base/form. Cut eyes out of felt and hot glue into place. Make a bow with your ribbon and hot glue into place. All done!

Thabks for stoppin by and have a great day!

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.

Ribbon Bookmark

Hey everyone, 

today I'd like to share a ribbon bookmark. 




For this project all you really need is ribbon, scissors, a button, an elastic hair tie, needle & thread (or a sewing machine), and hot glue & hot glue gun (optional).


I used 5/8" red wired satin ribbon and 11/2" navy blue mini stars wired ribbon. 
This bookmark is such an easy project. If I hadn't hand stitched it probably would have only taken 15 mins. My hand stitching skills used to be decent, but I haven't hand stitched in quite awhile. My stitching was less than beautiful, so I hot glued red ribbon over it and it looks pretty good now!



Let me give you the easy steps real quick... 
1. Cut ribbon to size (size depends on book... measure around and have a gap between the ends of about 2 - 3 inches.
2. place elastic band on one edge about an inch in and fold ribbon over the elastic.
3. stitch the end of the ribbon thats folded over the elastic making a loop out of the ribbon that traps the elastic in.
4. on the other end of the ribbon sew on a button. DONE!

 (optional steps if you want to clean up the edges)

5. fold back the ribbon edge the button is on toward the inside and hot glue down.
6 wrap a different ribbon over the stitches from the elastic.




I hope you guys enjoy this project and give it a go yourself.



Thanks for stoppin' by and have a great day!
