Amazing

It has been a long time since I have posted. Feels good to come back and share some projects. Today I am sharing a layout created for Creative Embellishments and was inspired from Stuck?! Sketches. 

The Creative Embellishments challenge was to be inspired by something from this image and the layout was to be in black and white ( a little color was permitted) 

I was inspired by Stuck?! Sketch by Laura. 

I was inspired by the butterflies I have been holding onto these CE beautiful butterflies for some time. I also used one of my favorite corner pieces. They say there are no mistakes in scrapbooking just creative explorations. I was going to use this picture in color and the rest of the layout in black and white with two pink flowers. Well things got messy and inked up the color photo so layered it with a black and white photo. And because my son an I were playing with gelato's add a little color. But I couldn't help it because I tucked in some CE butterfly buttons in my layout next to the flowers. Close up pictures below. 

Thank you for stopping by!

The Original

Today I am sharing a layout I created of my Dad. 

He suddenly passed away in March. 

I miss him so very much. Life is just not the same without him. 
He was the Dad that always brought me to school on the first day every year. 
He would come home with flowers for us girls just because. 
He was the first phone call of the day on my birthday. 
He was the Dad that taught me how to change a tire, filter, break light and the list goes on. He was the Dad who rocked out with me to Metallica on the drive to school. 
He introduced me to the love of coffee and James Bond movies. He even gained weight with me while pregnant for my first child. He was the true epitome of a family man. It was an honor to be one of "Lloyd's girls". He is the original man. Miss you. 

So today I am sharing a layout I created about him. 

I was inspired by Laura's August sketch from Stuck?! Sketches. 

I used the Photo Play - This Guy - Element 12x12 Stickers sheet!

I love the Prima - Mini Stars Finnabair Mechanicals Metal Embellishments. 

Have a great day!

Hello friends, 

It has been sometime since I have been able to get crafty!!! 

Finally I carved some time for myself! 

I was inspired to create this layer based on the Prima BAP Challenge. I used Prima Salvage District Paper. Yummy Prima Flowers, Color Bloom Sprays, and my two favorite Prima Dies! 

I created this cool splatter effect with my Palette Mixed Media Watercolor Brush Pens! 

Love the clusters and clusters of flowers! 

Blossom

Today I am sharing a layout created with Kaisercraft - Fairy Dust collection. 

Love this paper collection. 

I also popped in some hidden journalling. 

I love all the butterflies and layers of this layout. 

Limited kits will be available next week :) 

Thank you for looking!

Here & Now

Hello! 

Today I am sharing a quick tutorial on how I created my Here & Now layout using papers from the BoBunny - Sleigh Ride collection. 

My amazing photographer Barb Weir Photography captured this really cute picture of my son. This picture captures his personality. 

He was doing his "cool kid model pose" as he calls it. 

My Layout was based on the Creative Scrapbooker Sketchy Challenge. 

Here is the sketch my layout is based on! Kelly Klapstein

I cut one 6x12 pieces from the BoBunny - Sleigh Ride - Tradition 12x12 Paper

and a 6x12 inch piece from the BoBunny - Sleigh Ride - Logs 12x12 Paper

One 1x12 inch piece of white card stock along with a 4x6 piece of white card stock for my photo mat. I adhered these two a 12x12 piece of pattern paper. 

My goal was to have a little light color peeking around the edges as I distressed all three pieces. 

I then cut some stickers in half from the fabulous BoBunny - Sleigh Ride - Combo 12x12 Sticker Sheet  and adhered it behind my picture. 

I wanted a "wood" feel layout and cut out some of my branches and adhered them to the bottom left corner of my layout.

I then layered my snowflake die cuts with stickers again taken from the combo sheet. A few close up shots.
