California layout - Glitz design sketch

This is another one for the Practical Scrappers online crop. It was a sketch from one of our sponsors - Glitz Design - not a big sketch girl - but I loved that this one used 8 pictures!!!

Online Crop Submission

Practical Scrappers is having an online crop this weekend hosted by Kerri. I have never done one before. Being the site owner I'm not out to win anything - but did want to contribute to the fun as I could. This layout is for the Black Friday or Bling challenge...I used stickles like crazy on this thing - all over the flourish, the journaling spot, and the flowers! The Cute title also has glitter in it. The pictures are of Lucy last fall and this fall - it's shocking how much she's grown up when you look at it this way!

Kids Workshop Cards





I led a card workshop for kids the other day - It was nice to have to think simply and just enjoy stamping a little bit. They were for kids that take piano lessons - so I included a music one.

Practical Scrappers - White Core Cardstock

The challenge this week at Practical Scrappers is to use white core or color core cardstock. I went with white core for my first project. I love this layout because I used tulle for the first time and homemade dew drops for the first time. There's something thrilling about using a new embelli for the first time!

Santa XPress

Pictures from last Christmas that I finally got inspired to scrap. I love the black background with the starry look. I used the Boutique Alphabet set from CTMH for my title.

Ribbon Project that didn't make the cut :)


I loved this idea...weaving ribbon using lots of it. But I am just not over the moon about this layout. And that's okay - we can not be thrilled about everything we do! I did use up lots of ribbon, tried a new inking approach, and got to use my Mom's lyrical letters cartridge!

Practical Scrappers Ribbon

I made this layout with an idea in my mind and it went a whole different direction. The stickers are from Hobby Lobby and Michaels. I cuttlebugged the squares in the background. The ribbons are all from Hobby Lobby too. I love this fall picture of me and kiddos...how about that for scrapping a pic that isn't even two weeks old!?!
