Good Times

Posted on August 9, 2015 by Jennifer

It’s Gotta Grab It time at Gotta Pixel.

2015-08-09_GGI_08

Word Art World put together a really awesome contribution this month. It can be used for a variety of photo subjects. Good Times is available as five separate pieces for $1 each or you can buy all five for $5.

I decided to scrap two pages from our recent Alaskan cruise vacation. These two pages are from the first day of our vacation in Vancouver.

Journaling reads: After Jessica and Janette went to bed, I went on a walk around our hotel with Sarah. Rylan, who took a super late nap, and Cameron joined us. We went to a nearby pharmacy for me to pick up an item I forgot to pack. Then we wandered around looking for a snack for Cameron. I, of course, snapped a few pics while on our walk. The store with our last name warranted a pic, as well as the views across the harbor.

Journaling reads: Cameron really wanted to use the escalator, so when we arrived back at the hotel, he went down the stairs to the food court level and came back up the escalator.

At the Stroke of Midnight & Start Your Engines

Posted on August 6, 2015 by Jennifer

Cinderella is a tale of magic and wish fulfillment, stitched together from equal parts hard work and happily ever after. At the Stroke of Midnight captures the diverse color palettes of the ball and her day-to-day life and is versatile enough to add a little magic to your memories. This kit is packed full of sparkle, patterned papers, and Cinderella’s classic shade of blue, dropping hints of the story like her lost glass slipper. In addition to thematic elements, this kit is a treasure trove of flowers, ribbons, and bows—perfect for everyday scrapbook pages too. At The Stroke of Midnight comes with two different alphas to mix-and-match and make all your wishes come true.  This kit comes with TWO extra packs – glitters and a set of damask papers! PLUS an extra alpha!

Purchase this during it’s first week of release for 1/2 off.

 Then I used the more colorful aspects of the kit to scrap a page about meeting Drizella, one of Cinderella’s wicked stepsisters, last summer at Disney World. I need to do a coordinating page for meeting Anastasia, the other stepsister.

I have one layout using Start Your Engines. It’s from the Alaskan cruise we just returned from last week. There is an area of the Disney Wonder, the ship we cruised on, that is called the Route 66 entertainment district.

On the Boardwalk

Posted on July 20, 2015 by Jennifer

The July SNP store collab is really fun this month. On the Boardwalk has a great color scheme that would be perfect for patriotic layouts, but it is wide enough to be used for a variety of layouts. I love the quantity of floral elements in it, plus the themed elements are really lively. Check out that neat patio chair.

I decided to scrap photos from a birthday party at Kiddie Acres. I got on a roll and scrapped five pages to cover the event.

Journaling reads: January 11, 2014 Harper invited Jessica to her 4th birthday party. It was held at Kiddie Acres, a neat amusement park in north Austin geared to children 10 and younger. Initially, Jessica wasn’t too sure about some of the rides, but seeing her friends enjoy the rides prompted her to give them a try. Jessica and Janette’s first ride was the miniature train. James rode with them while I snapped photos. It wasn’t long before they rode just about every ride, except the pony ride. The weather ended up being really nice and it was a beautiful time celebrating Harper’s birthday.

Journaling reads: Each guest was given their very own unicorn horn as a party favor. Jessica loved it and wore it quite a bit during the party. You could tell that Lena, Harper’s mom, put a lot of effort into making them.2015-07-20_LO_Kiddie-Acres-3

I mad a layout of some photos with friends. Journaling reads: It is always nice to get away from those little people who seem to constantly need us and just relax and eat a meal without interuptions. It is even better when it is a meal with friends, good conversation and much laughter. March 10, 2015: MOPS Dinner Night at Casa Arandinas
