Bridesmaids

This is a layout of the Bridesmaids from the wedding except of course my great nephew, lol. I did this page using the same sketch which of course I didn't realize that I should have mirrored the background papers from the layout of my daughter-in-law walking down the aisle with her Dad, since these pages are going to be beside each other in the album. Oh well, not about to tear it all apart now, lol. Here's the finished layout.

Thanks for stopping by and I'd love to hear your comments!
 

Daddy's Girl

Here we are with another layout from the Wedding photos. This is a photo of my daughter-in-law walking down the aisle with her Dad. I was looking for a different title for the page other than the usual "Walking Down the Aisle" thing and I came across this one "I'll Always Be Daddy's Girl". It reminded be of my Dad, he always called me his baby girl. He introduced me to everyone as his baby girl, right up to the day he died. That's why I thought this title would be perfect, even after we marry, our Dads will be one of the most important and loved men in our lives.

For this layout I used a sketch by Kelly Holifield which I turned on it's side. Here is the sketch:

 For the layout I used the Kaisercraft "High Tea" paper collection. The pink flowers were from my stash and were just a plain white color. I sprayed them with some Lindy's Stamp Gang "Cotton Candy" pink. I also added the small deep red and white rosebuds from my stash. The title I cut out on my Cricut machine.  Here's the finished layout.

Swirlydoos Sketch Challenge

I've been in a bit of a scrap layout funk lately so I decided to enter the Swirlydoos sketch challenge this month. Here is the sketch from Swirlydoos.

My take on the sketch was pretty simple. I used this photo taken of me when my girlfriend and I had gone on a little mini vacation down island to Victoria, BC back in September 2014. I've had the photo sitting in my "to scrap" basket for ages. I found some fencing in my stash and then used my honeycomb die to cut out my chippies which I painted to match my flowers. I added a doily behind the photo as well as part of a doily on the top left of the layout under the flowers. I also added some flower sticker die cuts just above and behind the fencing. To finish the layout off I added some small pearl flourishes and added some stamping around the layout. Here's the finished layout, thanks for stopping by.

 

Grad Formal

My granddaughter graduated this past June so of course I had to scrap this photo of her in her formal dress for the Grad Dance...what happened to that sweet little girl, she's all grown up now! I feel so old, lol.

I cut different sized rectangles and banners from the Kaisercraft "High Tea" paper collection. I used the "High Tea Afternoon Tea" paper for my background paper. I distressed and inked all of the papers. I made the pink flowers using my Heartfelt dies. I added a couple of tears in the paper with some flowers popping out. To finish off the layout I did some white paint drips & splats all over the layout, although they're kind of hard to see in the photo. For my chippie I covered it with white paint then sprayed it with some pink glimmer mist. Here's the finished layout, thanks for stopping by!

 

Wedding Dress

Well I'm back to doing another wedding layout, this time to show off the wedding dress, which was just beautiful! For this layout I used Kaisercraft's "High Tea" collection. I used the "High Tea Tea Time" paper for my background paper. I cut 4 different sized papers from the collection to layer under the photos as shown. I took a duplicate piece of the "High Tea Tea Time" paper and fussy cut out the doily and roses from the bottom left corner of the paper and used some foam dots to pop it up over the same corner of the background paper. The top right side of this background paper has a piece of another doily  on the paper so I cut a piece of another doily and placed it over the doily on the paper and added a pink flower folded in half and  added two small roses on top of that. I added a few more roses and flowers to the layout along with my title and called it done. Here's the finished layout, I'd love to hear your comments and thanks for stopping by!

Mini Album #3

I've been busy making another Mini Album. I had this beautiful Prima paper pad collection called "Zella Teal" that I just love. I was poking around the internet and came across this tutorial on You Tube by Rosa Kelly for Country Craft Creations and she had used the "Zella Teal" papers for the album. I loved the album with these papers so of course I had to lift it! Here is my lift of the album, below the photos I've added a video tour of the album and as usual I would love to hear your comments on my project!

Here is the video tour of the album.
