the little moments.

This page was SO fun to make! My mom had these photos that were taken inside at a fish store so they weren't the best quality. I edited them as best I could and then I found this cut file in my stash. It could not be more perfect for this page! 

I backed my fish with Craft Consortium 6x6 papers, popped some up with foam adhesive, and I LOVE how it turned out. This is easily one of my favorite layouts in a LONG time. Thanks for looking!

 Hi friends! Today I'm sharing a page using the June Stick it Down sketch. Not gonna lie, the triangle design was throwing me off.

I found this cut file from Cut to You and used it as inspiration. The background is a pre-made mixed media paper from Vicky Boutin. With the busy background, I didn't need embellishing, but I do still need to add my journaling. Thanks for looking!

magical memories to last a lifetime.

This Jillibean Soup kraft patterned paper is SO old. Serious stash busting here. I mixed it with some (new) 49 and Market and then just some random embellishments from my stash. This page was inspired by the Paper Issues "Most Popular" challenge this month, which is to scrap the favorite family member. It's my nephew, hands down! Thanks for looking:)
 

sweet sunny days [Challenge YOUrself 102].

 June Challenge YOUrself mood board challenge, coming in hot! Of course I grabbed some vacation photos. Those are my favorite to scrap. These pictures are from Mexico in 2019. We had some great drinks while sitting poolside for several days and doing nothing else.

I started with a Vicki Boutin mixed media background and just added a bunch of stuff from my stash. I love pages like that! Thanks for looking :)

look.

I ordered some of the new 49 and Market line and have been wanting to play with it. For this page, I used one of the mixed media rub ons as a starting point for my page. Then I used the words + chipboard hearts to embellish around my photo. 

 I'm playing along with a Scraplift Sunday challenge at Paper Issues.

Hello again! Today I have a layout I made just for fun. I got some of the new 49 and Market collection and it's really so pretty. This paper I used as my background today, I felt would be the hardest for me to use. Just because of the design. It's not really my style. So I challenged myself to use it first and to do so, I changed my photos to sepia.

From there, I found my title word and a Paper Issues cut file with clouds. I used the Lovely Day sequin mix from Spiegelmom Scraps + popped up some of my embellishments with foam adhesive. Thanks for looking!

everyday moments.

 This page was based on a May sketch from Paper Issues.

It's kind of a mish-mash of a PearTree cut file + some mixed media + fussy cut clouds from a patterned paper in my stash. Thanks for looking!

I heart... [Challenge YOUrself 101].

  

Another month, another challenge! So many possibilities with this one!

You guys already know what I love! I used a Paige Evans cut file for this one and backed it using up some scraps from my stash. I kept the embellishments pretty slim because I am loving this cut file. Thanks for looking!

First Easter.

 This page is an April scraplift challenge at Paper Issues.

Thanks for looking!

1 month.

 Here's another one for an April Paper Issues challenge about dreams or sleeping. I have a cute photo of my nephew sleeping - because that's about all he does right now!

Mom Moments.

 Sharing a layout I made for one of the April challenges at Paper Issues. The challenge was to create a project about BABIES. So I grabbed a photo of my new baby nephew!

This is a free cutfile from Paper Issues + the rest is from Elle's Studio. Thanks for looking!

Congrats.

I like to include invitations on my wedding pages when I can. The invite includes all the details of the day so all you have left to do is embellish! Super easy!

 All of my die cuts are from The Avenue collection by Jen Hatfield. I've been trying to use these up for ages!

Simply Lovely.

 This page is for the final challenge at My Little Scrapbook Store's online crop. It ends today! I completed four layouts. This is my new nephew, Grayson!

This challenge was to use a cut file and I found this one in my stash from The Cut Shoppe. Thanks for looking!

L O V E [Challenge YOUrself 100].

Time for a new theme at Challenge YOUrself! This is our 100th challenge and we are using all the stars to celebrate.

My cut file is from Paper Issues and it was the star of the show. These photos aren't too great, but this was only the third time we had gotten to see our nephew at this point because of Covid (and they live three hours away).

Thanks for looking!

Wild Card Saturday.

Where my Bengals fans at? We paid a ridiculous amount of money for first row seats behind the Bengals bench for the Wild Card game against the Raiders. It. Was. Amazing.

This is another page for the My Little Scrapbook Store crop going on now. This challenge was to do a layout about sports. Thanks for looking!
