New Layout - A Day at the Aquarium

Happy Thursday, the week is almost over - WHEW, this was a long one! I'm anxious for the weekend to begin, I've got lots of party planning to do.  I wanted to share a quick layout I finished today on the Aquarium visit we made to the Tulsa Aquarium a couple of years ago. 

For the left side of the layout I played along with Paper Issues August challenge Take 5. I used card stock, the color aqua, 3 photos, stripes, and stickers. Here is the complete Take 5 challenge list:

I used a page kit from Embellish It! and tweaked it to fit my photos. I hope you have an easy breezy Friday! Thanks for visiting! 

I'm a Winner - Over at More Than Words

Yeah!  I'm doing my happy dance. I am a Mystery Winner over at More than Words for their July Main Challenge. Here's my layout and what they said:

We don't see them often, but we adore double page spreads! This double layout from Jessica seemed to be the perfect interpretation of our challenge. What better place to DISCOVER new things than at the museum?! And Jessica was able to incorporate even more OLD STASH on her 2-pager.

Yeah, I'm super excited and will definitely be playing along again soon. Head over and check out their fun challenges!

Guest Designer for PaperGirls Challenge Blog New Layout - Enjoy

Happy Monday to all my crafty friends! I am so excited to be the Guest Designer for August at The Paper Girls Challenge blog. They have such fun monthly challenges! I hope you stop by and join the fun. 

This month I'm sharing my layout for their August challenge - "Vellum." I had to dig through my scraps to find some fun vellum to work with. I managed to include 30 pieces of vellum cuts from Close To My Heart (Calypso Complements) on this layout. I used a glittzy piece of cardstock from Bazzill as my base, Thickers alpha stickers for the year, and mini alphas from BasicGrey. I also included a couple of arrows from Paper Wizard. The vellum pieces offset the photos perfect for a bit of Summer Swimming Popsicle fun!

The sketch I used is from Rochelle Spears Scrappy Friends July sketch challenge; which is over now, but too great of a sketch not to share. I rotated the sketch and used clusters of vellum cuts in lieu of stars.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'd love you to follow me!

New Layout - Soccer

Happy Sunday! I'm NOT ready for another week and I didn't get near enough crafty time this weekend. I did finish yet another soccer layout to share. 

For the left side I played along with the Sketches in Thyme #383 sketch. Here is the fun sketch:

I also played along with Paper Issues - Hunger Games challenge. This challenge is for favorite foods and games. Soccer is the main sport in our life at the moment and seems to be our weekend calendar during the season.  

I used paper and journaling block from Scrapbook Customs, stamps from Cocoa Daisy, arrow from the Paper Studio, stickers from Heidi Swapp and Park Lane Paperie, twine from The Twinery, and ink from CTMH.

I hope you had a productive weekend and I wish you a wonderful week! Thanks for visiting!
