My Girl

Posted on by

Today is release day for the fabulous new digikit My Girl by Amy’s Designs. Amy designed it with the color scheme and elements of her daughter’s bedroom in mind.

It is perfect for those girly layouts. I’m sure you could use it for layouts that aren’t too girly, but the rest of the creative team had girl on the brain too. You can see their layouts here.

I have two layouts that use it. One I shared Monday.

Too Cute Layout

The second layout also uses one of the photos from Janette’s newborn photo shoot. This was my favorite from the shoot with Kristie Woodworth Photography. We ordered an 11×14 print of it. I think I will use the layout for the cover page of Janette’s scrapbook album.

Love, Love Me Do

I have a layout to share today that I am really really pleased with how it turned out. It uses 5 of the photos from Janette’s newborn photo shoot by Kristie Woodworth Photography. I was beyond pleased with how the photo shoot went, so if you’re in the Austin area and looking for a photographer, I totally recommend Kristie.

Happy Birthday Pawpaw

Posted on by

Yesterday, was James’ grandfather’s 90th birthday. I hope I live that long. I wanted to make him a special card that had 90 on it somewhere. I used the January Sketch for You to Try. I was very inspired by this card using the sketch.

Pawpaw's 90th Birthday Card

Stamps: The Cat’s Pajamas Smells Like Cake, You Say It’s Your Birthday
Cardstock: Stampin’ Up Whisper White, Old Olive, Sahara Sand, Basic Black
Designer Paper: Stampin’ Up Sweet Pea
Ink: Stazon Jet Black
Embellishments: twine; Stampin’ Up button
Tools: Stampin’ Up scallop trim border punch, small oval punch; Spellbinders small and classic circle nesties

I actually made this card yesterday when I went stamping at my friend Lori’s, so it won’t arrive in Pawpaw’s mailbox until at least tomorrow. This means it will be late, but we’ll just say I’m prolonging his celebration.

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous day!

P52 – Weeks 1, 2 and 3

Posted on by

This year I decided that I would do a P52. Basically, this means I will take at least one photo every day of the year and I will make a weekly scrapbook layout with 7 photos for that week and journal the everyday moments. I have been steadily working on it, but I haven’t shared any of it yet. I thought I would do that today. Don’t forget you can click on the images to view bigger.

Cover

This first layout will be the cover when I have all the layouts printed in a bound book at the end of the year. The inspiration for the blocked look and title came from this post by Wishing Well Creations. The poem by William Arthur Ward I included is the January Quote Challenge at Scrapbookbytes.com.
