Here are the rest of my projects from the August kits at the scrap-room. I just love all the bold colors,the wooden buttons, the full sheet of stickers, the cute animal embellishments, and lots more...so much fun I tell you!

August Sneek

It's Sneak Peek week over at the scrap-room. You won't be disapointed with this month's kit, it is AWESOME! Here's my take using MME's Hattie. We just got back from vacationing with my parents and sister, isn't my nephew the cutest little thing with his big ole grin?




The wooden buttons are the perfect embellishment. So fun!



Check back next week for the full reveal!

July Reveal

I've had the worst time with blogger lately. I can write posts but can't publish them on my computer at home. Anyone know what settings I need to change on my computer? Well, a little late but here are my new layouts from the scrap-room July kits. The most awesome picks from Pink Paislee, Lily Bee, Fancy Pants, and WRMK. Take a look!

And here's an article on The Scrap-room's Blog about my "Squirt Me" layout.






I did an Up Close and Personal write up for this layout here.















Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Easter Layouts

More April layouts to share. Sometimes when I create a layout, I end up with a page that just doesn't look how I want it to. Like this one. I wanted to use more than one photo but the ones in the top left corner were not my favorites. And I really love the rub-ons but my handwriting was horrible and the flowers were not mixing well. So I moved things around and ended with this.

One of my favorite projects this month was the altered wooden photo frame. This was the before:

And this was the result after sprucing it up with some yummy TSR Basic Grey Goodness. I love damask prints and the aqua color is so pretty, now it's permanently sitting in our family room to enjoy. The butterfly cut outs are from the embellishment add-on kit, you don't want to miss out, one of my favorites..really! The doily flowers were hand stamped.

Out of my stash were the rubons, bling, button, and 2 aqua flowers.

Just Lovely

Hello, here's some details about my "Just Lovely" layout. I used the scrap-room's April Stamp to create the layered flower next to my title spot. I just love the doily shapes. And I used these Copics to color in the chipboard letters Bare Maya Road chipboard letters (thanks Kim!) Makenzie loves to wear Aoi Dai on Chinese New Years Day. Actually, she would be fine wearing it everyday. She's looking too grown up for me.


My second layout using the My Minds Eye line. I love the colors.


And a simple card.


Hope you have a great Friday!
