I'm finding myself a little behind on scrapbook layouts this month.  I made up a fall scrapbook layout, I'll just have to add my pictures later, I just couldn't seem to get any printed out this week. We're using the Sweater Weather Designer Series Paper for this project.  I especially like some of the plaids in this set of paper. I've kept the layout fairly simple and added in pieces of white copy paper where my pictures will be placed . . . once I've printed them.  It's hard to see in the picture, but the leaves are all embossed with differing embossing folders to give a little Continue reading

Today I want to share the third scrapbook layout we will be making in Scrap Club this month. I love Chocolate Chip, Whisper White and Marina Mist together.  They look great, don't they? It's a pretty simple layout, one that will work for many occasions.  We're using some retired Designer Series Paper, you'd never know it was a Christmas design would you? I look forward to creating with the Scrap Club members on October 21!  We're going to have a great time! Thank you for coming by to visit today.  I can't wait to stamp with a great group of ladies in Baldwin, MD today! Continue reading

The second scrapbook layout has been designed for October's Scrap Club! I pulled out pictures of San Diego's Balboa Park for this layout.  Such a lovely park, we could have spent so much more time there!  The plants are gogeous and the buildings are magnificent! I pulled out some retired Comfort Cafe Designer Series Paper for this layout as well as some doilies and Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon which seemed to go perfectly with the look I was trying to achieve. I added in a postcard on this page and then cut small pictures from another postcard which I sprinkled around the Continue reading

It's hard to believe I'm actually a little bit ahead for Scrap Club . . . well, one layout ahead anyway!  I guess that's what happens when you have pictures you're excited to scrapbook! When we visited the beach, while in San Diego, I stopped at one point and just started clicking pictures of my husband as he approached the water.  (He didn't realize what I was doing, which of course makes the effect so much better.)  I've been anxious to pull out those pictures and figure out a layout on which to use them! I love how they turned out!  I need to take pictures like this more Continue reading

I've certainly been jumping around with my scrapbook pages this month!  From Ocean City to Shrewsbury and now on to Disney.  It looks like we get around more than I might think! I've finally gotten around to documenting the fun Date Night we had in Disney when we went courtesy of Stampin' Up!  They took us to the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular.  I shared the story here on my blog after we went on our trip in spring 2012. I saw a sketch for this layout and had a desire to use black, white and grays, but I have to admit, I had a hard time deciding which pictures to use on the Continue reading

Now that my third child has entered kindergarten, I figured it's time to get the scrapbook pages done from the second child's kindergarten graduation . . . I'm a little behind on this one . . . but the inspiration finally hit for this page so I took it and went with it.  I wanted the colors of White, blue and silver since those are the school colors. I used some current and retired pieces of Designer Series Paper and ribbon along with a beautiful Silver Glimmer Paper.  I wish the pictures showed the real glimmer! Maybe I'd better start thinking about the next Kindergarten Continue reading

I'm trying to get a head start on the Scrapbook Layouts we will be making this month is Scrap Club.  I'm sure my club members won't mind! I pulled out the Wetlands stamp set which I just recently purchased.  I can't wait to use it on some more project in the future.  I've seen such fun things done with! It's a fairly simple layout.  I stamped the wetland grasses across the bottom and I could resist adding the goose to the Deco Label.  The Whisper White cardstock is embossed with the Woodgrain embossing folder.  Cute and simple. The colors I used are Pistachio Pudding, Soft Sky Continue reading

Here is our third Scrap Club layout for this month.  I saw a page someone else made with the hexagon punch and decided to give it a try myself. Continue reading

I love the look of this banner on the wooden background!  It has struck my fancy! Continue reading

Here's another scrapbook layout we are making in Scrap Club this month.  These pictures were taken at my parent's home when we visited earlier this month. It's simple but colorful.  I like the way the pictures are cut to size to fit perfectly together on the left!  I always love when the pictures fit together, I don't like them to look like they're slapped on a page helter skelter. Continue reading

We're holding our Scrapbooking Club a little later this month due to vacations.  July is certainly a busy month for everyone! Continue reading
