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 :)
Love these Jenn, especially the Lincoln Gardens one! Felicity is a great kit...I still have some to use. I like simple, clean lines as well....sometimes less is more. Your pumkin is really cute! The Stardust layout is really cute too....and yes, I am a paper hoarder. We should start a support group! lol
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed these, they are great! I looooove stardust, only have scraps of that one left. Felicity is harder for me, I've only used a bit, but I've used the stamp set a lot recently. Love what you did with the alphas, and your pumpkin is so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI tried to log into Chapter Geek, but I'm not having any luck. What are you reading lately? Oh, and please bug Tina to post some pics of her store, I would LOVE to see it!
