Wedding Hairdo Scrapbook Layout

August 8, 2018

Hey crafty friends!  Welcome back to another page reveal for Southern Girls Challenge. Team Lou was challenged to add some stamping to their project.  I pulled out some old items in my stash and created a wedding hairdo scrapbook layout for my sister’s wedding.

My sister was married the day after Christmas, one month after getting engaged and while I was six months pregnant…fun times 🙂  I had never done hair before, but she wanted something simple and wanted to look like herself so I just did a simple around the head braid.  These photos were taken while I was doing that…without even a practice run.

The paper that I used for this is Carta Bella’s rustic elegance.  It’s a wedding paper, but isn’t all I do and black and white.  It has soft colors and hearts and flowers…perfect for letting the photos shine.

To meet the stamping requirement I used an old Stampin’ Up hexagon set that had a matching punch.  The set had patterned hexagons and one with just an outline. I used use the outline so that the stamping didn’t compete with the punched paper.  I feel the patterned stamps would have overwhelmed the soft feel of the paper.

Since there were three photos on the page, and the hexagons themselves were visually very busy, I left everything else very simple.  A simple black title and two small journalling squares were my only embellishments.  The only other thing I added was some gold ink splatters as it is a wedding after all.

I hope you have enjoyed this layout share, and I hope you’ll come over and join the challenge as well.  Don’t forget that if you do leave me a comment with your link so I can be sure to pop over and check your creation out.  Until next time…stay crafty!

One Sheet Wonder Cards

April 12, 2017

Hey everyone!  I’ve been keeping something under my hat and can finally share with you.  I’m a guest designer for part of April and May over at the challenge blog Use Your Stuff. I have participated with them before, but not nearly enough.


Their challenge this week is to use flower…eeekk…not something I’ve done a lot of with only having a girl the last year, and doing boy layouts for six.  I have to say though after some thought I came up with an awesome idea…well if I do say so myself!


I did a search on Pinterest for one sheet wonder ideas.  Yes – all eight of these cards were made with one sheet of patterned paper, and two sheets of cardstock.  I’m not a regular cardmaker, but this is certainly and idea I can get behind and a great way to use papers I may not use otherwise.

The paper is one I received in a Studio Calico kit years ago if I’m not mistaken.  It’s from Pink Paisley’s Switchboard collection and the specific paper is Hey There.  The punches and stamps are from my Stampin’ Up stash that I’ve had for years.

I hope this gives you a new look at some of that paper you may not use in your traditional way, and I hope it inspires you to pull out some flowers and link up with the Use Your Stuff challenge. I’ll be back with them in early May so stay tuned for some more of their great challenges.

Zoo Fun Layout

July 24, 2015

     Can we start this post with looking at just how small our little man was!  This was his first trip to the zoo at right about 18 months.  We treated my Dad with a trip to the Philadelphia Zoo for Father’s Day.  
     I used the newest sketch from ScrapMuch!? for my page.  It obviously doesn’t follow it to the letter, but even when I start out saying I will follow it to the letter it rarely ends up that way.  I kept the strip at the top in addition to the layers behind the photo, but changed it to one large horizontal photo instead of a medium vertical one.  I always struggle with large photos, but was happy with how this came out.
   The paper is from Stampin’ Up several years ago…before the catalog changed styles.   Some Thickers and monkey die cuts from a zoo swap I did a few months ago and the page was done.
   So…I want to see what you do with the sketch.  If you participate make sure to link here so I can leave you a comment.  Until next time…Keep Scrapping!

Dots and Spots Birthday Card

May 22, 2015

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another reveal for Southern Girls Challenge. This time we were asked to create something with dots or spots.  Here is the card I created…

     This is actually one of eight cards I created. I gave a one sheet wonder template a try and was completely stoked with my results.  The paper is a from a Hampton Arts collection called Playlist…the exact paper is called Volume. I used this paper not only for the dots/spots, but because with all the different colors the cards can now be used for a male or female recipient.
     The stamp is from a old CTMH collection stamped with Memento ink in Tuxedo Black.  The punch is a standard scalloped circle, but I believe mine is from Stampin Up.
    I hope you come join our dots and spots challenge, and I’d love to hear if you ever used a one sheet wonder template and what you thought of the results.  Until Next time…Keep Scrapping!

3×3 Christmas Meander Album

December 2, 2014

     Hi everyone and welcome to my second guest post for the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop.  You should have arrived here from Lisa’s blog.
    The idea of this hop is to give you 12 days of inspiration to get those Christmas projects done.  You may see cards, layouts, mini albums, altered items or home decor…you’ll have to visit each day to not miss a thing.
     For my project today I chose to make a 3×3 meander album with a Christmas theme.  I have been sick with bronchitis so I made you a video…Thanks for understanding!

     Now before you head off to Scrappin Madge’s I’d love if you followed me here and on my Facebook page (link on the sidebar).  If you follow me already please know how honored that makes me feel…I appreciate all of you!
  Until next time…Keep Scrapping!
