Party Layout

                                                                             

                                   REQUIRED STARS EMBELLISHMENTS







 Loved playing with this month's sketch but it has been reworked over so many times!! I hope you love it as much as I do!! Many papers, stickers, and ephemera from: Crate Paper, Echo Park Let's Party and We R Memory Keepers. The stars were from Webster's pages from over a decade ago! So glad it is all being used and came out so nice.

Photoplay Belle Fleur Sketch Layout "Love"

     

Stacy's Scrappy Friends Reveal: Scrap with Stacy Tic Tac Toe-Used a Doily, brads and paper clip. And just to add more, (Brads, Sticker flower, a staple) for the diagonal as well. Love this to encourage me to use fun layering on my layout and use up some of my supplies. Had so much fun with it!! 



 Here is my layout for the challenges for February 2023 and loved these challenges to get me to be creative after not doing any layouts since December!!! So these are pics of a Cricut Meet up here in Orlando, FL from many years ago and so enjoyed how well it came out using the sketch!!! The papers are Photoplay Belle Fleur "Hello Gorgeous". Real easy to make, I cut the 12x12 into 6x6 and then turned to B side for the lower paper, and cut off 1/4" which I used at the upper left corner on the tag that I stapled ribbon using the Tim Holtz stapler, and added the paperclip. Added a doily under the same side as represented for the cardstock under the 2 focal pieces as in the sketch. The title is made with the Mega Love die from Altenew <here> using Bazzill cardstock in Piglet, one of my all time favorite colored cardstocks!! The frames are from an old company called Fawn and used them for our pictures. Really loved the sketch with actual real wooden frames just like the sketch!! Added the Sticker flower and 3 brads from my OLD Basic Grey stash!!! Ribbon was from my mega stash of ribbons!! I will never use it all up going at this rate!! If I keep everything, do I really think I will use it ALL??? LOL!! Spent hours organizing my stash and it paid off with all of my "finds" this weekend too!! Always buying and not using enough!!

Photoplay Land of the Free Layout

 





  Using Photoplay's Land Of the Free collection, I made this layout for the Memorial Day celebration in the Florida Keys. The stickers were popped up and the right page was put on the diagonal. Hope you enjoy it!

Pinkfresh Studio Birthday Wishes Shaker Card

                                   

I just love the whimsical feel of these rainbow colored balloons! Am playing along with the Pinkfresh Studio January Challenge for the June 2022 Rainbow theme.  Reminds me of happy birthday parties and fun times!! I used the newest Pinkfresh Studio Celebrate Washi Tape,  PF Celebrate Washi Stamp set,  PF Essentials: Inverted Stitched Scallop Circle Die, Ranger Gold Embossing Powder, MISTI, Embossing Heat Gun and various shaker bits and sequins of gold and rainbow colors. 

I found myself desperate to get all of these popular supplies when they were sold out on their site! I was so happy when I found them on Simon Says Stamp!! YAY!! The washi is so beautiful and I can't wait to try more!
