Come Join Shimelle For A Tremendously Fabulous Weekend!



If you haven't heard yet, Shimelle Laine is hosting an online scrapbook weekend event on her blog! Over the three days from April 13-15, she will have tutorials, challenges, guest bloggers and prizes!It is being hosted on her blog here and it's FREE! If you can't join in over those weekend dates, the prize-winning opportunities will be open until April 23. I love Shimelle. She is always such "brilliant fun" and so inspiring. I'm going to join in, and I hope you will too!  

I've been keeping busy with a layout a day while working through my Big Picture Classes workshop "28 Sketches". Here are a couple more layouts to share:

 Products Used: Patterned Paper: Bella Blvd. (Estate Sale), Pebbles (Twitterpad Collection-Love ya), My Mind's Eye (Simply Delightful), Making Memories (Big Dot/Poolside Paperie) - Stars: Ki Memories (Puffies-Star White) - Small Letter Stickers: Cosmo Cricket (Tiny Type) & old Frances Meyer - Chipboard Word Stickers: Cloud 9 Designs (Baby Girl-Photo Banner II), Die Cut Machine: Craft Robo.


Digital Supplies: Tab: Corren Silke – Tot Tab 2 - Journal Card: Karen Grunberg -  Hearts: Summer Driggs (Freedom Ain’t Free-Light Red Star).

I tucked the journaling card underneath the layers of the matted photo. My oldest granddaughters baby layouts are mostly in the 8 1/2 X 11 format, so I stayed with that size. This is what I use to scrap all the time in my early years. Now I have a harder time using that size for some reason. Less space I guess with this format seems to stifle my creativity a bit.



Products Used: Cardstock: The Paper Co. - Patterned Paper: Dream Street Papers (Enchanted-Once Upon A Time) - Paint: Apple Barrel (Kelly Green) - Title Letter Stickers: Making Memories (Boho Chic-Velvet Alphas-Meadow) - Distress Inks: Tim Holtz Distress Ink & Colorbox (Midnight Black) - Grunge Board Flourishes: Tim Holtz Idea-ology - Washi Tape: Hambly - Foam Squares: Therm-O-Web - Fiber: Unknown. 

For this layout, I made a little envelope to tuck my three journaling cards into. I realize as I post this, that I will probably add some lettering to the envelope flap to let the reader know the journaling is in the envelope. 

Hope you all have a great weekend. Happy Scrapping!
