This Life Noted

Hey everyone! Today I am sharing a This Life Noted page using the August This Life Noted kit!!
I love the bright colors and little embellishments in this kit... and the stamps!!

mar PL 1


mar PL 2
Can you believe I'm all the way back in March still!? I cut the top part off another TLN card to add a blank spot for a title, added a wood veneer piece, some sequins and circled the month!

mar PL 3
I took the "Remember This" from a 3x4 card and glued on the cute flair badge!

mar PL 4
I used the camera stamp that comes in the kit to make my own 3x4 cards that match, used my typewriter to add the names to the photos and another wood veneer piece!

mar PL 5
Used one of the cut-aparts and more cute sequins!

mar PL 6
The little frame in the back is from the stamp set and I cut the arrows from a 3x4 card, used some more tiny wood veneer pieces and called it done!!
...........
Never mind... not done! A couple days later I decided to add a little insert, so here it is!!
Bowling Insert 1
Here is the front and back sides of the 4x12 insert!
And a couple close ups.
Bowling insert 2 Bowling insert 3 bowling insert 4
Okay, now I can call it done :)

Click

Hello hello there!
Today I am sharing a pretty simple layout made using the Classy Girl kit and add on from 
Click 1
I knew I wanted to keep it simple, like I always do for the most part, but I wanted the page to pop out a little more so I added this pretty paper to the background and stitched along the edges. The triangles are cut from a patterned paper and I added a couple sequins for added embellishment!

Click 3
Loving the stickers that came in these kits!

Click 2
A simple title and called it finished!!

Don't forget to go check out the Scraptastic blog to see what everyone else is making with their kits!!

Oh So Lovely

Hi again! Back with another Scraptastic layout and a video this time! Woohoo!
Even though the adorable "Classy Girl" kit is oh so girly, I wanted to challenge myself and make a boyish layout using these kits. 

Here is what I came up with!
Oh So Lovely 1
This blue watercolor background is awesome! I love the ombre effect!

Oh So Lovely 2
I went ahead and inked up the diecut that came in the kit, perfect for a small titled and lucky me I had an ink color that matched!

Oh So Lovely 3
I know floral isn't manly but I couldn't pass these up. They matched to well to not use! I love those cork arrows and the sequins too! 

Here is the scrapbooking process for this layout!

Cousins

Back again to share a layout using the August Scraptastic kits, Classy Girl plus add-on!
I love how girly this kit is, (they have a boy option also), and how everything goes together so well!!
Here is the second layout I made with these kits!

Cousins 1
Another girly one! I used the other half of the giant flower sticker and another flair badge for a "light" pop of color. I added this page to one of the patterned papers to give a nice boarder, (cut the middle out of course so I can use it for another project), and stitched along the edges. 

Cousins 2
Still loving these Thickers and the light pink sequins that came in the kit!


Cousins 3
These gold glittered arrow stickers are just way to cute!

Cousins 4
That wraps up the second layout using the August Scraptastic "Classy Girl" kits! Come back for more!!
Thanks for stopping by! Have a lovely day!

Layout :: Hey

Hello everyone! Today I have a layout to share with you that is made with about 99.9% Crate Paper products! The Crate Paper blog recently had a challenge using polka dots which I thought would be fun. Although I didn't win or make it into the runner up section I still had fun with the challenge and got to use up some old papers I've been hoarding :)

IMG_5971-001
I used new and old Crate Paper products and love that their collections all go together! The only non Crate Paper items are the little pearls and the thread of course.

IMG_5912-001
Love those little bows and the cut apart sheets are awesome! So many pieces to use!!

IMG_5935-001

IMG_5932-001
So that wraps up my polka dot layout! 
Hope you have a great day and thank you for stopping by!!

Double Spread :: Go See Do + 2 videos

Sharing another 12x12 and Project Life style page with you today!
For these pages I used the Studio Calico June kit, Roundabout.
Totally love this kit! (I think I say I love everything lol!) When I viewed it online I didn't think it was all that great but the photo doesn't do justice! This kit is perfect for travel pages and the chipboard set that comes in the kit is totally awesome!
I haven't worked on my album from my Washington trip in a while and this kit got me going again!
Here is the 12x12 page!

IMG_5616-001
So colorful and so fun!

IMG_5625-001

IMG_5634-001

IMG_5631-001

IMG_5640-001
I've had this flair badge sitting with these pictures, and when I saw the Go. See. Do. chipboard piece, I just knew it was meant to be! I stuck the ticket from the ride in a little Whisker Graphics bag :)

Here is the process video!


And onto the Project Life style page!


IMG_5655-001
I kept this super simple but still love the way it turned out!

IMG_5670-001

IMG_5667-001
The cork cameras didn't come in the kit but they are made by Studio Calico and super awesome!

IMG_5673-001

Onto the process video!



Hope you enjoyed a second double page post!!
Again... I apologize for the lighting in the videos!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Double Spread :: Lynx Lake + 2 Videos!!

Today I have a 12x12 and a divided page to share with you! These pages will lay side by side in my 2013 album. I thought of splitting this post up but the video quality isn't the best this time around so I'll just go ahead and post them together.
I moved my scrapbooking supplies into a different room and forgot to change the exposure on my camera so the lighting looks super bright :( I apologize and hope you still enjoy the videos!
Let's take a look at the photos first!

IMG_5685-001
This layout went in a totally different direction then I was planning, but I love the way it turned out!

IMG_5691-001
I've been hoarding these papers and forced myself to use them! I stitched around the papers by doing one small section, cutting it off, and doing another small section that way I get the thread hanging from multiple parts of the page instead of just one spot if I were to stitch all the way around without stopping. 

IMG_5694-001
I've had pieces of a really old Pink Paislee rubon set just sitting in my supplies for years now. I didn't use them all up on this page but I'm glad I put some of it to use. I like the texture it gives to the page!

IMG_5703-001
Love these Tim Holtz word stickers!!

Here is the process video :)



Here is the right side to this layout.. Project Life style!

IMG_5715-001
Love the way this turned out too!!

IMG_5721-001

IMG_5727-001
(I've seriously had this Crate Paper brad for like ever...my favorite!)

And there is the process video :)

Did you make it all the way through this post!? It was long but I hope you enjoyed it anyway!! 
I have another two parter coming up soon. Unfortunately those videos were filmed the same day and have high exposure also. So mad about it, but it's ok.. these things happen sometimes. 
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!
