Flower Love

Boy # 2 loves to pick me flowers.  When I would drop him off at daycare he always picked my these "flowers".

I used ScrapbookSteals MidWeekMojo sketch Tulip # 6 and the Echo Park Happy Go Lucky collection. This layout was also created for the Scrap Our Stash June Stash Challenge # 27 "B.R.A.D.S.".

I've used Sketches in Thyme sketch # 148 and the May stash challenge # 26 from Scrap our Stash to create this layout of boys # 1 and 2 being silly. I used Fancy Pants "Be Different" collection.

My Lucky Charms

Hello there,

I have another challenge mash-up layout for you.  I combined ScrapbookSteals Midweek Mojo Daisy # 8 sketch with the Scrap Our Stash Challenge # 15 - Monochromatic Layout. I modified the sketch to accommodate 2 pictures and went all out on the green it keep it monochromatic. 

The sketch:

For the Scrap Our Stash Challenge, we also had to use 5 different embellishments.  I used green washi, 3 3-D clover stickers, 2 green arrow brads, 4 green sequins,  and 3 green buttons.

Sunset @ The Beach

One of the many the perks of living close to the beach is that we can just get in the car and go.  Every once in a while we like to take a spontaneous trip to watch the sunset.  My boys absolutely love the beach and we love to watch them enjoy themselves.  

I used ScrapbookSteals Daisy #5 sketch along with the Scrap Our Stash Challenge # 14.

 

For the Scrap Our Stash Challenge we had use something old, something new, something blue, and something fussy cut.

Something old : I used my I-Rock to adhere the white gems that I've had in my stash for a couple of years now.

Something new : I purchased some Heidi Swap Blue Ghost Letters a couple of months ago, that I finally was able to use.

Something blue : I used multiple blue items: paper, washi tape, and the @ sign in my title.

Something fussy cut : I cut out a large cloud shape in the yellow chevron paper using my Kiwi Lane Designs template.

....at the Beach

With the beginning of the month comes many new challenges on some of me favorite scrappy blogs.

For this picture of my boys at the beach I've decided to use The Paper Bakery May Sketch Challenge # 1.

 

I will be entering this layout in the following challenges as well:

SWAT Drill # 7 :  Tic Tac Toe - I used row 1 down; 3 buttons, stitching, and 3 different manufactures (Fancy Pants Park Bench and The Good Life, My Minds Eye Indie Chic, and Teresa Collins Carolina Breeze)

Scrap Your Story Challenge # 10 : Favorites

Red Carpet Studio # 35 : Black Swan - create a layout using black as the prominent color!

2 Broke Girls Cupcake Special # 3 : Photo inspiration - I've pulled the yellow/gold and turquoise  colors

Scrap Our Stash Challenge # 3 : Pattern Paper Party - 3 different manufactures (Fancy Pants Park Bench and The Good Life, My Minds Eye Indie Chic, and Teresa Collins Carolina Breeze) and a rubon (at the Beach)

Yummy!

This months Scrap Our Stash Challenge was to use one polka dot paper, one striped paper, and one bird, butterfly, or bee. The dot and striped paper would be easy for me to work in a layout of my boys, a bird or butterfly not so much. So I thought that here's a good chance to use my little stash of girly supplies and do a page of myself. :)  I used just a few pages of my 6x6 MME Dolled Up and a wood vaner little birdie I picked up from my local box store.
