My Coffee Cup

I was able to get another layout done today. In a scrapping group I'm in, we were challenged to scrap something we love...something we could actually hold in our hands. I instantly thought of my favorite coffee cup! Here's how the page looks...

My sweet friend Cathy sent this cup to me last year for my birthday and I really do love it. It's the perfect size, beautiful in color, has a wonderful Scripture on it, and it makes me think of our amazing friendship every time I use it. What's not to love, right? ;)

For the layout, I kept it simple. I used K&Company papers for this one...their Wild Saffron paper pad. I cut a half circle to do the journaling on and a mat for the photo, and then inked them both. For the picture, I lightly sanded the edges and inked them. I laid everything out and then after I wrote in the journaling, I decided to add a small picture of Cathy that I had. I think it fits perfectly and I love the finished look...

I Love You Baby

I did a layout today that I'd like to share with you...and it actually has me on it! ;) I scrap so many pages of the girls that sometimes I forget about Mark and myself, lol...

My wonderful friend Peggy recently joined the design team for Song Bird Scraps and they just posted their first challenge, so I decided to do a layout for it. Here's what I came up with...



The colors I used are somewhat brighter than what I normally choose to work with but I'm really loving how this looks!! All of the papers are from the Basic Grey Urban Prairie collection and they just match each other perfectly, don't they? ;)

Putting this one together was very simple. I did some cutting, sanding, inking and painting, and then put everything in place where I wanted it. I'm very happy with my results!
