My sweet girls...

I did a quick page today about my sweeties having some play time at the park. I really like how it turned out! I'm loving these bright, cheery colors...


Supplies: K&Company Paper Pad - Greenhouse, Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Peeled Paint & Worn Lipstick, Ranger Ink Blending Tool, Basic Grey Chipboard Letters - Block, Fiskars Border Punch - Threading Water, Colorbox Chalk Ink Queue - Primary

I hope you're having an amazing day!

Some Scripture pages...

I'm working on a 6x6 Scripture album for my wonderful mom-in-law, Arlene. I got 8 layouts made yesterday, and then today I put them back-to-back on some chipboard to make 4 complete pages of the album. I punched some holes into each page and used metal rings for the closures so she can easily add more pages later on. I really like it so far! :)
















I won't post each individual supply list since there are so many of these, so I'll just tell you that most of the papers are from K&Company's "Life's Journey" paper pad and I used ALOT of Tim Holtz distress inks. I even tried out a couple of his masks too...fun stuff! Thanks for looking...

Some layouts to share...

I did a couple of pages for Emily today and I'm really happy with how they both turned out! I did some stitching on each one and I really think it adds that little something...

Supplies: We R Memory Keepers Paper Pad - Nonsense; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Tea Dye; Doodlebug Loopy Lou Cardstock Stickers - Bon Bon; American Crafts Buttons; Making Memories Buttons; Scenic Route Heart Chipboard Shapes (used as templates), DMC Floss, Sandpaper

Supplies: K&Company Paper Pad - Wild Raspberry; Bazzill Scalloped Cardstock (used as a template); Colorbox Ink; Making Memories Button; EK Success Sticko Sticker; Prima Flowers; DMC Floss

Thanks for looking! I hope you all have an amazing and blessed weekend... :)

Just a note - I've decided to start adding my supply lists to the layouts/cards I post. There have been way too many times I've seen a project somewhere and wanted to know what products were used and couldn't find out. It's very frustrating! So just in case there are any of you out there wondering what I've used on something, now you'll know. ;)

She makes my heart happy... :)

I did this layout of Emily today and I adore how it turned out! I took this picture of her a couple of months ago and absolutely love how joyful she looks in it...

*Based on sketch #24 at 52 Sketches...52 Weeks

I've been wanting to scrap this for a while now but couldn't seem to find any papers I really liked to go with it. I think these were definitely a great choice though. ;)

Cute...and she knows it, lol...

I did this layout of Emily this morning and I think it turned out adorable!!

*Based on sketch #23 at 52 Sketches...52 Weeks

The look on her face is priceless...like she knows what a little cutie she is. Well, I guess she should since we tell her that all the time, lol. ;)

I used some papers from the We R Memory Keepers paper pad called Nonsense. I just love how bright and colorful they are! Perfect for summertime...

Another card batch...

These are from last week, but I realized I never shared them so I will now! Thanks for looking...

Yum - Madison's 1st shake!

Well, of course Madison has shared shakes with other people, but this was the first time she ever had her very own and let me tell you, the girl finished it in no time flat! Too cute...

*Based on sketch #2 at 52 Sketches...52 Weeks

These are the kinds of things I want to start scrapping more...the little things that you might forget later on, you know? ;)

2 of a kind...

I got this super cute picture of my sweeties watching some TV together last month and I scrapped it today...



The papers are soooooo beautiful (K&Company's Wild Raspberry line) and matched the colors in the picture really well, I think. I also did some stitching and painting with matching colors, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. How could I not be with those beauties on the page?? ;)

Scripture Challenge - Time & Truth

I did my latest Scripture challenge layouts last night so I wanted to share them with you. I really love how they both turned out...

For the word Time, I used a very common verse, but one that should be remembered DAILY. God's timing is perfect...always. His plan for all of our lives is constant -- there are no mishaps in His eyes. If we believe that, we'll have no trouble trusting Him with everything...



For Truth, I actually found a verse I hadn't read before, but I really love what it says. "...all His work is done in truth." How awesome is that?! We can count on God for anything and everything and He will be there, on our side, showing us the right way to live our lives, in truth, without fear or doubt. That's a pretty amazing feeling...



I hope one of these might bless you today...I know they have me! :)
