You Keep Me Anchored 12x12 layout

 

 

For this 12x12 layout I used the Prima Seashore collection including the papers, ATC pads in sizes 3x4 and 4x6, flowers, leaves, chipboard pieces, tags, and paperclip. I've also used Prima Color Bloom sprays in Soft Teal, Antique Gold, and Precious Stone.

 

I distressed all the papers and inked all the edges with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I layered my papers, cheese cloth, and a piece of corrugated cardboard for my photo.

 

 

 

For the background I used modeling paste and Tim Holtz Burlap stencil and then spayed with Soft Teal and Precious Stone.  Once dried I stamped the background with stamps from the Seashore collection. 

 

 

The chipboard pieces are from Creative Embellishments.  I used the Chicken Wire Panel and the anchor from the Nautical 6 piece set. I sprayed them with Antique Gold.

 

I mixed in some small Wild Orchid Crafts open roses with the Prima flowers and layered them on and around the Chipboard embellishments.

School Rocks~Back to School Layout

It's that time of year again and all my little ones are in school! It's a little bitter sweet having all three kids in school! I suspect I'll enjoy a little peace and quite but then again I'm really going to miss having them all around!  I guess it'll leave me with more time to scrapbook!  I think it's only fitting that I start with all the back to school pictures! 

 

 

I've created this 12x12 layout using paper from the Simple Stories Smarty Pants collection.

 

I used the "Back to School Pencils 2014" from Scrappydew Creations.  This boy and pencil car is 3 1/2" tall.  I ran the pencil part through my cuttlebug and inked all the edges in chestnut brown ink.  I used my embossing folder from Paper Studio that is a notebook paper design.  I should also mention that this files comes with a little girl and a title.  I decided not to use the title because I felt like my layout was getting a little busy. 

Gone In 10 Minutes Layout

What an adorable way to document your child learning to ride their bike! I wanted a way to show the action of my son learning to ride his bike without training wheels and I think this layout did the trick!

 

To create this layout I used "My First Bike" from Scrappydew Creations and the film strip and chevron is from the silhouette store 4 Borders #24503. I used the negative space for the chevron.

 

The photo mats fit a 4x6 and 3x4 photos. The film strip fits 4 photos measuring 2.4 x 1.6.

The background papers measure 12x12, 11.5 x 11.5, and 11x11.

Journaling was printed on the 11x11 background.

 

The boy on his bike measures 4.9"

 

I created the title using the Airstrike font from Dafont.com. I used an extra wheel from the bike and sized it to fit the title.  I then created 2 offsets and added doodling to finish it off.

 

Additional products used: Echo Park We Are Family By Lori Whitlock and homemade enamel dots.
