Scrappy Bowl Challenge #3 from Kathryn on Life on the Scrap Beach

Challenge #3-- protective layers.  I used many layers of paper (an older BoBunny collection that I only had one full page of and a lot of scraps.  I kept them because I loved the colors and patterns of the collection), stickers, journaling tags, flowers and more fussy cut paper.  I really like this layout and especially the subjects of the photo!   So cute! 

Stay tuned for challenge #4.........

Scrappy Bowl Challenge #2 from Kathryn at Life on the Scrap Beach

Here is my entry for challenge #2.   Using superbowl team colors- Red, White and Blue.   Lucky for me, I had not done fourth of July pics yet (in fact, I've been so busy doing mini's, I haven't done many 12x12 layouts at all).   Here is my entry:

The paper is from BoBunny and I included a pull out journaling folio at the top (so it is still accessible with a page cover) which describes our fireworks experience as a family!

Stay tuned for #3......

Scrappy Bowl Challenges from Kathryn at Life on the Scrap Beach

My first entry.  Number one had to involve a grid.   I used grid paper for my journaling and also a decorative piece of paper for some added interest which also has a very small grid on it.    I am catching up on the year 2004.   It seems I only scrapped a few photos from that year, yet I have TONS of super cute ones!  More to come.......

Mini-mini album

A few Valentines Projects

I was able to make a few Valentines projects over the last week or so.  I even did a video.... Let's see if it is in fact as simple to upload as pushing a button.   So far I have not had much luck.  Fear not though, I have not given up!   Hope you enjoy the projects!   Oh, I did mention in the video, or at least start to, the paper I used for the mini-mini album but then I got distracted.... I used Yours Truly by Echo Park and the pattern is called "stack the deck" and can be found on Laura Dennison from Following the Paper Trail's website.  I love the pattern and talk more about in the video that I am struggling to upload.  Arg!   (a link to her site is in the column to the right). 

My son's goal for ME for 2012

Ready for this......  my nine year old says by 2013 I need 100 followers!   WOW!   I will need everyone's help with this!   Ambitious guy isn't he? 

Hugs

Happy New Year!

Happy 2012 everyone!
I'm starting with my first post of the year as promised!   I have the project I created with the left over game pieces/coaster squares from my previous project.  I will include the main products I used, but it is not complete as I used a hodge podge of stuff from my stash!  I made a wall hanging of my favorite subject- My son!

 Five of the nine squares are interactive.   Pictures in the clips can be switched out whenever the mood strikes, the number for his age is attached with hook and loop tape to be changed each year, and the little pieces of paper in "He says" and "Simple pleasures" can be swapped out as well.   A page can be created with the prior slips and photos.

This idea is in the Spring/Summer 2012 CTMH catalog (p 97- come to my open house to get your catalog or email me)!

Sample of products used:
CTMH My Creations Memory Game (used 9 left over game pieces/coasters from another project) Z1614    9.95
Several CTMH stamp sets, ink, embossing powder (ink and powder in chocolate color)
BoBunny Timepiece paper
Embellishments were from a variety of sources (list available upon request)

Wishing everyone a very happy new year filled with fun and love!
