No Thank You!

I got my new kit from Memory Works on Monday, and was so inspired! It's filled with fabulous goodies from Collage Press, and the birthday theme was perfect for both Venice's & Scott's recent birthdays. Since I'm waiting on my Snapfish order for Scott's birthday pics, I decided to use these ones of Venice's first taste of birthday cake. A friend challenged me to start with the white cardstock background (which you may have noticed I almost never do!), and I LOVE the way it came out! After I had everything almost done, I was insipred to add the border and glitter gems on the bottom by a page in the July SBE by Lea Lawson, and I think it completes it perfectly. Love my scrappy mags!

No, Thank You!
Supplies: Cardstock- Bazzill; Patterned Paper- Collage Press; Alphas- American Crafts (brown), Pink Paislee (orange); Felt border - Queen & Co; Pen- Martha Stewart; Glitter gems- ?.

CY Sketch #54- Capture Everyday

Here's my first sketch assignment from Creatively Yours (which has MOVED, by the way! Go see the new site & update your bookmarks)! I used this awesome sketch from Noella and this great new Scenic Route line I got in my Memory Works kit this month to scrap these pics of Sierra at the park. I love how bright and vibrant this is! Head over to CY and check out all the other great pages from the rest of the team, then try it out for yourself! I'd love to see your take on it!

Here's a layout I did back in February with my November MemoryWorks kit and forgot to post. Sierra loves to come with me to get her nails done, so I got some pics!

Friend Wormy

Here is a layout I got done this weekend for the Spring into Summer crop at Scrapperie.com. This sketch is by the fabulous Jana Eubank, and I found these pictures from way back before we had Venice that were just perfect. Sierra is such a girly-girl that it was a very big thing for her to get over it and actually pick up this worm. Then she lovingly named it her 'friend wormy,' right before she put it on the hook and said goodbye. It was definitely a moment to remember...

Most of this page was done with the February Memory Works kit, although I did add a few things on my own.

Love Layout

We took these pictures of me holding Venice last month, and they came out so perfectly! I've been wanting to scrap them so bad, and my new January Express Kit from Memory Works was perfect for it! I love the way these colors look together, which is no huge suprise since I pretty much LOVE every Fancy Pants line. This is their new release, Artic Chill.

Love
