Discovery

Outdoor Disovery ~ All papers were from 'The Laundry Line' by My Mind's Eye, cricut carts used were Storybook and Lyrical Letters, Martha Stewart paper punch, glimmer mist and Basic Grey 'Bling It' for the rhinestones! Do you think it needs something else in the circle or should I leave it just like it is?

Grandpa and Me

As the title says, Grandpa and Me around 1981, I love this picture as its just how I think of my Grandpa everyday. Their wallpaper and the rocking chair we would always sit in! Papers used from My Minds Eye, letting cut with the Storybook cartridge and then drowned in Martha Stewart brownstone glitter! Bazzill flowers and the hearts journaling tag from a swap I was in!

Craftsman home

So here is the home we are hoping to build later this year/early next year. We are going with building since we just can't find an existing home that meets our criteria! This is a 4 bed with an upstairs bonus room (that would of course be mine for scrapping!)

We are having a heck of a time finding a development that will accept the siding as the homes exterior. We are working with our builder and realtor to find an acceptable way to do this! Maybe the front siding and the rest brick masonry?!? Most every development in Oklahoma requires and 80-85% brick exterior - UGH! That's really difficult for a girl who likes craftsman/cottage style homes! We have found a 1 Acre lot that we like....now just down to the details! Keep your fingers crossed that this will all work out for us - I'm tired of stressing!

bEAuTifUL...

This layout was done using OLD papers, ribbon (how do you like that Crystal:) LOL). The dragonflies are stamps that are cut out, sprayed with glimmer mist and glitzed up using stickles and a few pearls. The letters are chipboard also sprayed with Meadow Green glimmer mist.
Also, pic of myself as a baby...I am finding that I like doing layouts other than my pups, who knew! I will be doing some of my most favorite pictures from infancy through childhood - those that don't have journaling on the front, probably will so on the back. I hope you like this one!

Telephone - Sepia Baby

Simple layout - simple, which means it took me 2 HOURS to complete! UGH! What do you think? The phone is from "From my Kitchen" cartridge and some Fancy Pants rub-ons, Bazzill flowers and dew drops...Not what I had pictured in my head when I had this print done in sepia tones, but it will work.

Playground Fun

These pictures are of my mother and myself as a little girl. I used layering from the Laundry Line by My Mind's Eye, A Child's Year and Storybook for the flourish, thickers, and dew drops.
Maybe I'll do some brown inking around the edges as well! Hope you like it!
