1st Grade School Photo Masculine Scrapbook Layout

September 18, 2019

Hey scrappy friends!  Long time no layout.  Summer was incredibly crazy with swim team and two kiddos home full time, but with fall comes a new routine.  I’m afraid to say it, but I really hope to be at least semi regular with posting now that school is in session.

My first post back is for none other than the Southern Girls Design Team.  I have been on Team Lou for several years 2014 – 2015 and then from 2017 – to the present.  This go round we were challenged to use a tic tac toe board.  These usually end of up really hard for me to use because there’s always something on the board I LOATHE using.  This time I was able to use the right hand column very easily.

As my blog title indicated, this is our little man when he was in first grade.  I spent several days getting layouts done of all his school photos so that I could dispose of all the extras.  I do the main photo on the front traditional style and then just attach the class photo to the back since it’s always huge.

For this layout I used the very old My Minds Eye Remarkable collection. How old you may ask…well he was only two when the collection debuted.  If you can believe it you can still find a few pieces on amazon though.

Thank you for checking my layout out and for sticking with me through my creative dry spell.  I hope to be back again soon with more regular content.  I do know there will be a few videos in the upcoming weeks so be sure to stay tuned.  Until next time…stay crafty!

Santa Clause Scrapbook Layout

November 25, 2018

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – time for the annual 25 Days Of Christmas Movies Blog Hop! #ChristmasMoviesHop

We have 25 talented bloggers gathered together to share with you all the wonderful crafts and recipes you can make this Christmas season, based off of some of the most beloved holiday classic films. There are 25 films to be inspired by for your holiday season, and 25 talented bloggers to aid your inspiration! If you love Christmas movies, you have come to the right place!!

Hey Crafty Friends!  I’m very happy to be joining everyone again for another 25 Days of Christmas Movies blog.  Last year I did a mini album based on the Santa Clause 3 movie.  This year I created a Santa Clause Scrapbook Layout based on the first movie.

Need a quick and easy santa layout with room for lots of photos. Come see my Santa Clause Scrapbook Layout featuring four photos.

My original intention with this layout was to use photos of our kids breakfast with Santa outing that our school does as a fundraiser every year.  Unfortunately, this year it fell after the hop so I didn’t have any photos.  What I did instead was created the layout and made white holding places for the photos.  This is a great idea if you want to make something in advance or if you’re making an album for a gift. These photos are 4×6 and there 3×3.  I love how there are lots of photos, but still white space on the layout.  It doesn’t feel over crowded.

Santa Clause Scrapbook Layout

I think my favorite parts about this layout are the little details.  The journalling strips inked in red to match the red paper strip and the red photo mat.  The chipboard title embossed in gold.  For me it’s those little details that make a layout look cohesive.

Thank you for joining me this year for my Santa Clause Scrapbook Layout.  If you’d like to see the mini album I created last year inspired by the 3rd Santa Clause movie it can be found here. Don’t forget to meet the rest of the hosts for the hop to be inspired by food, drink and all kinds of holiday bits and bobs.

Craft Room Challenge – Reveal

February 2, 2018

Hello Crafty Friends!  I’m so glad you are joining us for the big reveal from the craft room challenge.  This is where we see all our hard work paying off. If you want to see where I started head over to week one’s post or here’s just a single picture to remind you.

The biggest difference in my space is my desk, and my new drawers from Ikea.  Replacing the old cabinets from Michael’s has made such a difference in my organization.  The old cubes just didn’t have enough space to place and see anything effectively.  As you saw in my organization post I can now readily see what I have.  It makes such a difference.

Another change I made is that I removed the VERY large white cabinet from the wall.  You can see the bottom of it in the picture above.  It was just so bulky for the wall and since it was almost empty it was wasted space.  I replaced it with a wrought iron rack from Hobby Lobby that now holds my kits.  If you’d like to see how I’m storing my kits in the rack please let me know.  I’d LOVE to share.

Now on to the big reveal picture….

A clean craft space after the hard work of the craft room challenge

It looks so much bigger without stuff all on the floor and with less on the walls.  I’m also not sure that the cabinets on the left, where my printer is, are staying. The printer would fit on the Ikea drawers so that corner may be empty at some point, but I didn’t want to get rid of them just yet. I may use them to store the items in my shop and replace the bins I currently have, but we’ll see how that works when the products all come in.

Thank you so much for joining us each week this month, and we hope that you have gotten lots of ideas and inspiration to get your craft room in order.  If there’s anything more you’d like to see close up please let me know.  Until next time….

Craft Supply Organization-Craft Room Challenge

January 24, 2018

Good day everyone and welcome to week four of the craft room challenge!  This week we were focusing on craft supply organization.  This is my favorite part of clean up. I LOVE to organize and I have several ideas to share with you that I think are just great! If you want to see where I started in this journey be sure to check out week one.

***This post may contain affiliate links.  Please see sidebar for complete disclosure***

Bling/Tools

The first thing I want to share with you is how I store my bling and most used tools.  The bling includes, enamel dots, stickles, gems, single colored brads, etc.  Each color (or color family if I don’t have many) gets their own white basket*.  The baskets come in a set of three from Dollar Tree. so it is very affordable to separate them this way. When I want a certain accent piece I can now just pull out that color basket and everything is right there.  I also placed some shelf liner* on the bottom of the drawer so nothing slides around.

The tools are the ones that I used the most – think tape runner, sticker maker and tiny attacher. This is the top drawer of my Alex cube so it’s very accessible when I’m creating and easy for clean up after.

Washi/Glitter

I store my washi tape and glitter.  The storage is VERY similar to the bling, but I use long baskets again from Dollar Tree.  I attempt to keep them color organized, but this drawer is our 22 month olds favorite to play in.  I figure if arranging washi keeps her entertained for 20 minutes it really doesn’t matter what order they are in!

The glitter is in tiny bottles also from the dollar tree. I find these are perfect for putting a spoon in to scoop glitter out and the opening is large enough that pouring back in is easy.  There’s less mess this way for me.

Store washi and glitter easily and inexpensive

Embellishments

This is one of my favorite storage tips.  I bought a bunch of 4×6 plastic photo cases off eBay (it was the cheapest place at the time) and each collection gets its own case.  If I have two collections of the same topic, and from the same company, they will go in the case together each in a zip top bag to save space.  I am still toying with how I want to label these.  I don’t really care for the post it note as it block me from seeing what’s in the case, but I don’t want a permanent level either since when a collection is done the case will be re-used.  Any tips for me?

6×6 paper pads.

I have been using this method for a long time, and it’s still working wonderfully for me.

Week Five Mission

I hope those tips gave you some ideas, and now it’s one to week five!  This week we are to clean and decorate…if that’s your thing.  Vacuum that floor – dust the shelves and hang some things up that make you happy and inspire you to create. I can’t wait to share the reveal with you!

Iron Pig – Baseball Scrapbook Layout

January 23, 2018

Welcome back craft friends as I share another scrapbook layout with you.  I created this layout as part of the scrapping party over at the Secret Not Secret Kit Club Facebook page. There was a sketch created by Eileen that we were able to interpret to our liking.

I stuck pretty close to the sketch except for my embellishments. Since I used a camping collection for this layout the embellishments didn’t match my theme so I had to make my own.  I used punches, inked the shapes and added some doodles to make them interesting. The other items are small stickers from a totally different collection that was family themed, but matched the color scheme of the papers.

I really enjoyed this sketch because it lent itself to using a 6×6 paper pad.  As with most people I have way to many, and use them way to much.  It felt good to get some of it used. I previously used this collection to make a cookout invitation that you can see here.Family Baseball Scrapbook Layout

I originally started this layout on white cardstock, and I kept looking at it and not liking how it was coming out.  Additionally, I tried outlining, more doodles, etc and nothing helped.  Once I pulled everything up and tried a black background…wow…did it look so much better.  The bright colors just popped in a way they didn’t on the white.  Don’t be afraid to try a dark background when something just doesn’t seem to be going the way you like.

Thank you for joining me today, and reading about each project I created.  I love hearing your feedback and I’d love to see any projects you create as a result.
