Beach Layout

Today I decided that the best way to end my creative block is to just sit down with a piece of white card stock and start sticking things down. I chose the Fancy Pants Trendsetter line for most of the papers and embellishments. I also used some Silhouette cuts and watercolor paints and Thickers for the title.
Please excuse the poorly lit iPhone-ography. I am rarely home when there is good natural light around to photograph my projects.

I love this photo of my daughter at the beach with her go-to peace sign and duck lips pose.

Thanks for stopping by!

Cheer Frames

I picked up these cute little frames at the Dollar Store to put in some goody bags for my daughters cheer squad. Of corse they weren't our team colors so I am having to do a little adjusting. The megaphones were originally red and I needed them to be yellow. I painted the pom poms a more royal blue and added some glitter. I still need to add some lettering to the megaphone. I'm not certain yet what. Maybe the year or team name and each girls name.  Decisions, decisions.  Gotta get them finished up this week for their last game next Monday.
Thanks for stopping by!

Sweet!

I started this layout with white card stock and my watercolor paints. I created an hombre effect from the center out. I also added some black spatter with the watercolors. I am loving the watercolor look right now.

I have this milkglass bowl on my desk that hold all the little leftover bits that are left after a project. I grabbed my bowl and started digging for embellishments for the page. I love red with turquoise so I pulled out anything I could find that was red. I used some Thickers to spell out "Sweet" and added a little journaling and called it complete.

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Class Project

I stopped by and picked up the supplies for my November 16th class for Scrapbooker's Emporium yesterday and all I can say is CUTE!!! The Heidi Swapp Memory Files are awesome and all of the embellishments are so fun! I got started on the front cover adding in some gold Heidi Swapp Colorshine Mist which is beautiful.

Stay tuned to Scrapbookersemporium.com for more class info and how to sign up. Thanks for stopping by!

Right Now

My life right now is consumed by a craft room update, cheerleading and softball and an overwhelming urge to create something, anything but then not knowing what it is...frustrating. I browse through amazing creations online and I can feel the creativity flowing in my head but then I can't seem to actually create anything. I am hoping that the new arrangement in my craft room will inspire me to get back into the process. What are you working on right now???

Vacation Jar

I completed my vacation memory jar. I used some sand from the beach along with a few of my beach finds and our family beach photo. The jar is from Walmart. I love to have things around that remind me of the fun times we have together as a family. Thanks for stopping by!
