Welcome to today's post which is another layout share. Today I have created a layout using a sketch from Jeanette R. Lynton's Magic book. Since I wanted the focus to be on the photo I chose black and white patterns in the DSP and splashes of red since Michael is wearing a red plaid shirt. I had just what I needed in the way of lettering with the Seasonal Snapshot 2015 Project Life Accessory Pack since I wanted to place the title on black card stock but didn't want to heat emboss. The Chipboard pieces are from 2 different MAMBI Chips packs and they were just what was needed as accents. Take a look at the layout below and let me know what you think. . Close up of some of the elements. . Here's the sketch I used as my jumping off point. . . Additional supplies used: ATG tape runner, MAMBI Chips, mambiSTICKS stickers.

Hello and welcome to the post for today featuring the Echo Park Wintertime collection. I loved everything about this collection and it fit so well with the photos of my son playing in the first snow of the season. It wasn't a lot of snow but it was enough for him to enjoy himself. The Wintertime Collection has such beautiful papers in it and the only embellishments I added from my stash were some Cherry Red and Snowflake Rhinestones by Queen&company, a die cut word (Stampin' Up) (snow) out of fun foam and some foam tape on the photo to the left of the layout to pop it up a little for dimension. I stamped two phrases, in Memento Tuxedo black ink, from a Becky Higgins rotary stamp and I'm just going to write the date on the back of the layout with the journaling. Take a look below at what I created and let me know what you think. . Some close-ups of the elements on the layout . I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for ...

Hello and TGIF. I have a simple layout to share with you today using the Yesterday collection by Lori Whitlock/Carta Bella. I also sprinkled the corners with some Heidi Swapp Color Shine (Gold) and used the stars from the Heidi Swapp Project Life Foil Kit.

Michael actually stayed still while being held by someone other than Mommy or Daddy. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. . Take a look at the gold splatters .
