Well the summer has flown by and the kids went back to school today. I can't believe it. My middle son started kindergarten today. He was so adorable walking to school with his brother. I ordered the pics tonight...can't wait to scrap them! I have actually been pretty busy in my craft room lately...could be my new ctmh goodies or all the fabulous paper I have picked up at Tina's new store Scrappin Happins! I hope she posts pics for everyone soon as she really has a great space! She's been working hard and it's really paid off. Of course I don't have those layouts photographed yet so I'll share these ones for now :)
This layout was the first time I have ever embossed chipboard. I really like the effect and it tied it together. I still have stardust paper left :) I need to stop buying retired papers on clearance. Do you hoard papers? I'm really getting much better at not collecting but using!!
This was a promo last year...Felicity I think. I love fall and we always have a ton of pics! I only got 2 of these kits...that's an improvement right? LOL!
I inked and stamped our colour ready alpha's with the flourish from stamps set that came with the kit. I didn't do a whole lot with this layout in terms of embellishment. Sometimes I really like a simple clean layout. I took Tresa Black's class at convention and picked up some great tips for clustering embellishments that I can't wait to try. Might help me jazz things up a bit :)
