This is Love

Hey there! Today, I am sharing a layout that I did a few weeks ago using mostly my Felicity Jane kits. For those of you who are not familiar with Felicity Jane, it is a kit club with almost all exclusive goodies. One of the great things about the kits is that much of the stuff coordinates from month to month. You also get a stamp set each month and they are really cute stamps.

So, my layout today was inspired by one of Ashley Horton's layouts. Click here to see her layout. I used the "All Tied Up" file from her shop on Etsy to do the letters. I ungrouped the letters and removed the inside of the letters so that I had just the outline left. I then cut it out on my Silhouette. I love the way the big letters look!! Here is a picture of my finished layout.

New Process Video

Hey everyone! Just wanted to pop in really quick and let you know that I uploaded a new process video for the layout that I shared last week. This one was for the "I Am" challenge over at Felicity Jane. If you like it, be sure to give me a thumbs up and leave a comment. Thanks! Have a happy scrappy day!

Felicity Jane "I Am" Challenge

Hey there! I'm back again today to share a layout that I made for the Felicity Jane "I Am" challenge. If you are not familiar with Felicity Jane, make sure to go here and check out their kits. Almost everything in the kits are exclusive items. While you are there, you can go to the blog and read about the "I Am" challenge. You do not have to be a kit subscriber to participate.

So, for my layout I started out with a cut file from The Cut Shoppe. I used the All Heart Remix cut file. I cut it out of white cardstock at about 11 x 11. I then traced around the inside of the hearts on my patterned paper and then cut all of the hearts out. Cutting out the hearts and getting them adhered to the cut file took the most time, but I absolutely love the results! I glued the inside section of the hearts down on my background cardstock and popped up the outer hearts to give some dimension and make it stand out more. Then, I matted my photo and got everything stuck down on my page. I was struggling trying to find the right letters to use for "Lucky" when I remembered that I had some Amy Tangerine word Thickers. I took the word "Lucky" and sprayed it with Gold Heidi Swapp color shine mist. I then glued that down using hot glue. I used a stamp in the kit to stamp the "I AM" on a tag which was also in the kit. I must say that I am so pleased with how this layout turned out! Here is a photo of my completed layout.

And, here are some close up pictures of my layout.

Don't you just love that gold flair button? There were three gold flair buttons in the June kit!! Swoon!! Well, thanks for stopping by today. I hope to have the process video for this layout uploaded in the next few days. Have a happy scrappy day!

National Donut Day

When I received my May Felicity Jane kit, I wasn't quite sure what to do with the donut paper and flair badge that I found in the kit. I was thinking that I would probably not ever use it. Well, I was so wrong! My oldest daughter and I decided to try a local donut shop on National Donut Day. OMG!! It was incredible! The donuts were fresh as can be! I mean, seriously, they were still warm! We got to pick our toppings which was pretty cool. I chose a vanilla iced with sprinkles and a chocolate drizzle. My daughter chose a glazed with bacon pieces. So delicious! So, I had to create a layout from that day!

All of my papers are from the Felicity Jane May kit. I mixed up fonts on the title using one font from the May kit and another from the February kit. And, how 'bout that cute donut flair!! The "O" in donut was the perfect place for me to put it! Here are some more detailed pictures.

I also have a process video if you would like to watch how I put this one together.



Thanks for visiting today and have a great weekend!

A Christmas Layout

Yes, I know it's February!  But, since my last post featured a Thanksgiving layout, I thought that I would post a Christmas layout today.  I still have one Christmas layout in process and many more to do.  I just needed a break from all the Christmas hoopla, and I wanted to start using my first Hip Kit.

So, this layout features my youngest daughter once again.  She has this habit of obsessing over a certain stuffed animal for a period of time, and then she moves on to another one.  She was obsessing over this little stuffed dog from the Santa Buddies movie during this time period, so I snapped some pictures of her one night at bedtime.  She has moved on to another stuffed animal now, but at least I got her love of "Fluffy" captured!

I used a combination of products on this layout from my Felicity Jane kits and Bella Blvd.  I really like how it turned out!

I hope you all are having a great week, and I'll be back soon to share more scrappy goodness!

Twofie?

So, lately the rage is people taking selfies.  I had never taken selfies before, but my oldest daughter was home with me one day over the summer and I was desperately trying to keep her entertained and work.  I suggested we take some goofy selfies together.  We snapped away, and actually did get some pretty silly selfies.  As we were going through them, my daughter says, "Since there are two of us in the picture, doesn't that make it a twofie?"  The girl cracks me up, but I guess she does have a good point!  So, here is a layout with some of our twofie pictures that I made with the October 2014 Felicity Jane kit.  It's my first layout using a grid design and I really like it!  I will definitely be doing more of these grid layouts in the future!  Have a great day, and thanks for looking!
