Random Layouts

Sorry the lighting isn't better.  These were just some random layouts I was working on to try and finish Evan's baby book (*gasp*, it's still not done??  *sigh* no...)

Most of this paper is from October Afternoon.
I paper pieced the fire truck, so I'm feeling pretty good about that!

This is mostly just random paper from my scrap room.
I used my Daily Junque stamps, my Tim Holtz key and Tim Holtz
ruler ribbon.

Double Dutch Collection

Picnic perfect - I couldn't resist this collection from the first moment I saw it.  I love gingham.  Everything about it says summer to me :)  and sooo many colours of it - perfect!

I love these pictures of Brody & the neighbour's cat
I forgot how cute and little he was :)
I was totally pleased with how this page turned out &
can't wait to try the scalloped circles on
another page!

And for your viewing pleasure, here's a link the the latest video ;)

Jackson Lodge Garden - June's Kit

June's kit is a great mix of masculine and feminine.  It has beautiful floral patterns as well as manly stripes, circles and sparks.  Here's a peek at the layouts I made with it.

And here's the video :)

Birthday Present

Mom & I had a great long weekend this year.  My birthday usually falls somewhere around that weekend, so as a treat she booked two days & a night a the McVicar Manor Bed & Breakfast.  It's about two blocks from my house and it's gorgeous!  I think it's one of my most favourite properties in Thunder Bay.  The folks who run it set up a table in the corner tower in the living room for us to scrapbook in...  It was perfect!  Check out the pics

 So I've merged a couple pics together to show the whole building together but there's a little distortion, LOL!  Sorry...

 I made 5 layouts during our day... The creek is along the side of the property so on Saturday afternoon, we worked out in the sun porch facing the creek... So beautiful!!!

May's Missing Posts :)

So I seem to have skipped posting anything in May...  It's not that I didn't do anything, I just didn't post it.  Let me rectify that situation now!

May's kit was a beauty!  Bright, bold colours and gorgeous flowers I LOVED it!  Here's the video & my layouts...

I think it's this floral paper at the bottom that makes me love this kit so much.  I love frilly flowers :)

Curiosity Shoppe - Graphic 45

So I was browsing all the new scrapbooking products after the Winter CHA and found this great collection called Curiosity Shoppe by Graphic 45.  I was totally in love, however it didn't really say "Monthly Collection" to me...  Not everyone loves vintage as much as I do.  So, I decided to order just a minium order from the wholesaler... for me!  Here's the first page I've made with it...
