Zoe Layout

August is here and with it the end of summer, end of an Idea Book and the beginning of something new :)

I created these layouts combining the two (end and beginning).  Using the brand new Zoe paper pack and accessories (LOVE THEM!) available this month and the Wanderful Picture My Life Cards retiring at the end of August.

What do I love best about these pages?  The photos of course!  My kids, my family, my love.  I started with a sketch from Scrapbook Generation and then tweaked it to create my own pages.  I really like doing that. Starting with a foundation and then getting creative.  Sometimes that creativity takes on such a new level that the original can hardly be found :)  That is ideal!

   I am really loving (LOVING) the colors of this new paper pack!  So many options for uses.  I created these pages using beach themed photos but I have baby photos I plan to use with the left over pattern paper and journal cards.  

If you are local to me I will be offering this as a class soon so be watching for the dates.  I had our local coffee shop contact me asking if I wanted to host a class there :)  YAY!  So if you love paper crafting and you love coffee we are going to combine the two and have a blast!

One last photo - the right page of the above layout incorporates one of my favorite must haves - Flip Flaps.  Here is a photo of the flip flap opened.

Have a blessed day and enjoy your August!!

Seaside Scrapbook Layout

Its been too long since I've last posted.  However, I have a good reason and here he is . . .

While this time around (number four) I'm lacking sleep much longer this surprise child has been such a blessing.  I used the Seaside Paper Pack and Picture My Life (think Project Life) cards to create this page.  I'm loving how easily (and quickly) my pages are coming together with these cards!  Instant titles and journal spots plus with a little creativity I'm able to create custom embellishments!  Love it!!

This compass was cut from a PML card, the "Happiness" was cut out of a zip strip and the journal card is from the Seaside PML card pack.

Even though I haven't been online as much I've still been creating.  I'm hoping to share some of my recent projects with you in the coming weeks.  Thanks for stopping by!  It's good to be back :)
