Try it Thursday at Sweet Peach

Good Thursday morning!! I had a wonderful vacation last week but glad to be getting back into the routine of everyday life. How about you? Anything new going on?

This week over at Sweet Peach I'm challenging you to USE SCRAPS!! You can not have a piece bigger than 7x7 and 1 x 12 inch strips are ok too. The only piece that can be big it the background. So let's get to work using those scraps to make room for new stuff!!

Here is my layout using the Aug. Juicy kit:

This is a close up of the Prima accents:

I used the Elle's Studio tag as my title:

Burlap & Buttercups August Kit Reveal

I was away on vacation so I'm just now getting to post these. Here are my layouts using the gorgeous August kit from Burlap & Buttercups! I just love the colors and the all the cute little bit and pieces that are included! You will have fun with this kit!

Get Picky Sketch

I just found this sketch site called Get Picky. And this months sponsor is Purple Pumpkin so really wanted play. I used a Midnight Rooster June kit.
This is my son who is in love with candy! Everytime we go to the post office or bank his first words are "Can I have lollipop?"

Closeups: Look at those cute little buttons. How perfect are those for this layout?! (they came in the kit ;) )

Pretty Little Studio Sketch

Hello! It's almost Friday and I can't wait! We are leaving for vacation for a week! So I wanted to get some challenge posted that I have been working. I did the sketch challenge over at Pretty Little Studio. I won a couple of weeks ago and used my GC to buy some of the new Antique collection. Let me tell you it is such a pretty line! I bought the paper pack, buttons, and tags.

Here is my layout and below is a little step by step.

Here is a close up:



First I made a grid on the back of my paper:


Then I used the all over border punch:


Then I cut out the little squares that came on the "demo" sheet:


Thanks for looking!

Sassafras Challenge Week

Hello! I have had a fun week working on the Sassafras challenges! They posted a challenge everyday this week (except Monday)! I don't have a lot of Sassafras since my LSS doesn't sell their lines so I had to use what I had gotten in my kits. So you'll notice I have mixed a lot of their lines together. And I think they mix well.

First challenge was a journaling challenge from Megan. I took this opportunity to use the interview I did with my son back in June for his 5th Birthday.



Second Challenges was from Marcy and she want you to use your alphas some other way then in a title. I choose to use my l and i's and make them look like stitching. And also the little strip on the side; I used the o's to make a border.


Third Challenge was from Kimberly. And it was to do a layout about a "family tradition". I choose to do a layout about going to the lake we go to every year.


And the forth challenge is from Michelle and she issued a color challenge. The bottom middle photo reminded me of this picture I had of the boys running and the colors were so fun!
