Up Coming Class at The Paper Pickle

Just thought I would share with you the next layout for the upcoming class at the Paper Pickle on April 29. There is lots of fussy cutting so be prepared to have those scissors sharpened and ready to go.

Hope to see you there.



Here are some close ups....

April Reveals for Scrapbook Dreamer

I can not believe it is April already. It is now time to get going on the yard and preparing for planting.

I have been having a blast working with the Dream Street Papers at Scrapbook Dreamer....I love the black, white and kraft colour combo. It is one of those lines that I could just use over and over again and is great for fussy cutting. For the first layout I used a photo of my son Chase. I caught him day dreaming outside. Along with fussy cutting all the flowers I also used a Sizzix die cutter to make the larger flower.

Here are a few close ups...



And here is another layout using some more of this fabulous line with a phot of my dear sweet, little Josh.


The torn flowers were inspired by Gabrielle Pollacco. She is a totally amazing artist.

And I completed one more layout for Scrapbook Dreamer using the Paper Loft Line. I love the earth tones in this paper. I took some pictures of Chase and Josh taking a walk in the field by the bridge. It seemed to be the perfect photos for this line.

Thanks so much for viewing.

A Little More March Maddness

I have just completed 2 more layouts for our March Reveal at Scrapbook Dreamer. The first layout was created with Bo Bunny Snowy Serenade. What an astounding line. The papers are glittered and offers so much texture and I love the colours they offer. The Kaiser Craft Wooden Snowflakes add the perfect texture to any layout.

The next one is using more Scribble Scrabble Paper. This line has to be one of my favourites. I find there is endless inspiration. I am sure you will see a few more layouts using Scribble Scrabble. I also used Prima and Petaloo Flowers....the colours seem to match perfectly with this paper.

Thanks so much for looking.

Dirty Little Wish

After dealing with sick kids for the weekend, a house that is in total disarray because of painting and nothing but running around ..... I decided yesterday I was going to sit back and scrap for a bit. I found this magnificient sketch from Liz Qualman at My Creative Scrapbook. I have been holding on to these photos from Logan since the summer ( what a dirty little monster he was that day...lol) and thought they would be perfect for this sketch....I was lucky enough to incorporate this sketch with a challenge at Scrapbook Dreamer.


Thanks for stopping by.

Cupid Fun

We are having such a great time with all the fabulous challenges at Scrapbook Dreamer right now for the Dreamer, Will You Be My Valentine Crop. Each week there are 4 new challenges posted...they are so inspirational.

Here are 2 layouts that I completed for the crop and also my reveal for the month using the Pink Paislee Cupid Line.

This one is of Shae and Logan having some "kissing" time at Mitchell's Bay. We had so much fun that day taking photos of the family.

This layout was of Logan when he was only a few months old...I love those eyes of his...I melt everytime.
