Memories

Here is another layout I made of the store opening. I started with scrap fits challenge of use a pattern paper background. I did not even touch card stock for this on. If you have been paying attention you can see that I have been leaving the journaling tags blank. I want the store manager to write in her thoughts. So far she has been thrilled with the first few pages I finished. With inventory this week I hope I can get a least a little bit of scrapping in.

Details:
Patterned Paper: Totally boy stack
Flowers: Recollections
Card stock die cut embellishments: from the pack at Michaels in with family stickers.

Fun and Games

This week at SOUS the the die cut challenge is put me in couch. It gave me the perfect idea for one of the new store layouts. There was a wheel you would spin to win prizes and even an expression 2. They also had craft areas. I scrap lifted a layout that I have loved for a long time I just dont know who made it or where is it from, but I saved it to my computer and I smile every time I see it.

Details:
Everything is old stash. I know at least some of it is from the Simply Delightful stack. Most of the other paper is from my scrap pile.
Twine: stampin up
Tickets: That is a stamp I got on clearance from Hobby Lobby forever ago.

This layout also Qualifies for:
Scrap Fit: twine
Paper Crafting Journey: anything goes

Celebrations

I am stepping out of my safety spot on this layout. I am pretty happy with how it turned out. The cake is to celebrate the new store opening and the store managers birthday. I again got the sketch from Sketch Savvy. I love her stuff. To make it more interesting I found a challenge that you have to use stuff from your stash that is at least 2 years old. It was listed on Disney Scrappers. Even though I didn't scrap Disney I still used the challenge.

Details:
Paper: DCWV Cotton Bloom Stack
Letters: came from a  scrapbook accessory kit I got at Tuesday Morning about 3 years ago
Chip Board Flowers and Circles: I also got them in a glitter and foil embellishment kit from Tuesday Morning about 3-4 years ago.

This layout qualifies for:
Polka Doodles: Flowers

End of summer

The challenge this week at Lasting Memories layout challenges is summers end. This year my summer has ended with the opening of a new store in Charlotte. I was able to get my hands on some pictures of the store before the product was brought in. It will NEVER be this neat and tidy again. I was able to use a sketch from Sketch Savvy. If you have never been there you should definitely check it out. One of my go to sites when I hit a wall.

This layout also qualifies for:
Clear It Out Challenges: inspiration (create a project based on something that inspires you-a card, a person, a place, anything)- My inspiration was work (I work at Michael's, how can I not be inspired?)
ColourQ: Crumb Cake, Basic Grey, Bermuda Bay, Gumball Green, White

1st mixed media layout

After going to the CKC scrapbook convention last weekend, I have been inspired to try a mixed media layout. I really like how it came out. However, not exactly a layout I can use for my boys ;)

Details:
The paper is by K & Company
everything else I either made or it was in my scrap bins so I dont really know who or what it is.

This layout qualifies for:
Craft Punk: Flowers
Frosted Design: Ribbon (Layout has lace, flowers cut from ribbon and a flower made from ribbon)
Ruby's Rainbow Challenges: use butterflies

I spy

I have been on the Disney Scrappers site alot lately. This month I was able to join in on one of the sketches.

Disney Scrap-A-Thon

I didn't fall off the planet or crawl under a rock....I have been scrapping a bunch of Disney stuff. I wanted to show what I done....

These are just a few that I have made. It is kind of nice to just scrap for yourself every now and then :)
