May Layouts--Footloose

Here are the first two layouts for my May Scrapbook Club.  I will post the third layout and cards this weekend.  We are using Footloose papers and accessories.  I love these papers!  They are perfect for beach or summer photos.  I used the photos from our spring break trip to California for these two layouts.

April Scrapbook Club--Pemberly

I LOVE the Pemberly papers.  Such beautiful colors and classy designs.  For all the layouts I used Bitty Opaques, Colonial White Designer brads, and Bouquet Assortment buttons.  

Layout #1 LOVE

I snapped the photo of my grandparents when we went to lunch on the pier last month.  It was a perfect moment, and I was happy I captured the shot.  After 61 years, they are still so in love :)  I combined it with photos of them with me and the boys.  I want to go back and create another one of them through the years, but I need time to pull out the photos.

Layout #2 Rodney & Dianne

I didn't get to the journaling yet, but these are photos I took at the wedding we attended last month.  Mike was best Man.  They asked us not to take photos during the wedding, so I didn't get very many of the wedding party.

Layout #3 All Dressed Up

More photos from the wedding.  I took lots of pictures of my boys all dressed up, and they matched these papers perfectly.  I might re-do the title on this one later.  I stamped the first letters crooked, so I tried to purposely stamp the rest at a slant, but I'm not sure I like it.  

In this one, I stamped vellum flowers using the coordinating Card Word Puzzle set.  I love the look of the flowers on the vellum.

A close up of the layered Vellum rose. I cut out several layers of roses to create a 3-D look.

Remember, club meets this Thursday at 6:30 and Saturday at 10:00.  

Wicked and Mischief

I got my CTMH order filled with all the new goodies, and I've been having loads of fun playing!  One of the Workshop on the Go kits I bought was Mischief.  I love that these papers can be used for Halloween, fall, or masculine cards.


The bonus project in the kit was a Halloween banner.  I used the basic layers, but changed up the embellishments, and added images from the Stamp of the Month.  I also used the new Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge for the letters.  I guess it looks pretty darn good because when Mike got home, he looked at it funny and wondered why I was already out buying Halloween decorations.  He was relieved when I said I made it :)

 A few close up shots.

This is the first layout in the workshop.  The only unscrapped Halloween photos I have are red and blue and didn't look right, so I'll save it for this year's Halloween pics.  I didn't finish the other layout yet.

A card I made with the new August Stamp of the Month.  I am loving the new SOTM program.  Now when you spend $50, you get the stamp for $5.  As an added bonus this month, you also get the Typeset Alphabet set FREE!  I love the witch in this set.  I can see her with sparkly red shoes or purple and green tights.  Too fun!  I also love that you can use the sayings for multiple types of cards--"hats off to you and  put your best foot forward."  

April Scrapbook Club

This month my scrapbook club will be working with the the Miracle Workshop on the Go. The layout and cards are from the instructions in the kit. I've had these pictures since last summer, and I was happy to finally get them scrapped. I love the pinwheel stamp set!

I'll be making more this week. If you want to get your own kit, which includes papers, stamps, embellishments, and instructions, click here.

Olivia WOTG Cards

Last night, while watching Boise State play New Mexico, I put together the Workshop on the Go cards from the Olivia kit. I love fall colors and patterns, so I knew I was going to love this set of papers and stamps. The cards are beautiful, and I'm hoping to put the layouts together today. I have fall pictures from two years ago that have just been waiting for the perfect papers.

If you are interested in getting your hands on this workshop, visit my site: www.moments2treasure.myctmh.com to order. The workshop kits are great because they come with the all papers, stamps, and embellishments you need. It also comes with a full color instruction booklet and cutting guide for one layout and six cards. Online you can find instructions for another layout and six cards. All this for just $29.95.

I am in the process of organizing a hostess club for these workshops. If you are interested, let me know :)

I'm hoping to be back tonight with my challenge card for Heart 2 Heart. In the meantime, the kids and I are going to drag out all the fall and Halloween decorations--woohoo! My favorite time of the year!
