Random Shots

There were so many new sights for me in Mexico! Loved it all, but took soooo many photos. The pics in the above layout were ones that aren't going to make it onto a layout of their own, but were part of our vacation experience. Great way to get them into the scrapbook anyway!

The layout below was built around the colors of the sunset and the fact that it was where we were for supper on Valentine's Day! Too easy! TFL!

A New Image

Here is a Stampavie stamp I colored with Copics. Is he not the cutest little gardener? I used this new image for a Scrapshotz Card Crew Challenge. The challenge was to use mostly white, 1 image or embellishment, and a greeting. Very simple card, but it works! I am working steadily on my Mexican album. It's probably half way to being complete. Here are the latest additions.I hope to get a couple more done this week! Thanks for looking!

Vintage Birthday Card

I made this card for a Scrapshotz card tag, and I am so in love with this classy image! I have another sheet of these little gems, and they'll be on cards near you very soon! LOL!

Thanks for stopping by!

A few fishing layouts and a card

Hi all! It's been a while since I've posted to my blog. I've been out there taking pics and living the good life. We spent almost 2 weeks at Mirond Lake and had a wonderful vacation. It feels pretty great to get back to the scrapbook room, though! Here are some fishing layouts that I've recently completed. I've a few more yet to do!

I actually took a few images and my copics with me to the lake and when it was quiet I was coloring. What a relaxing diversion! And it's so nice to have some pre-colored images on hand for those cards that you need in-a-hurry!

Dh and sil took gson #1 fishing in July! He was so excited to go, but I think the bigger boys were just as excited to take him! I was proud of them for taking the great photos that they did. Thanks, guys!

This card was made using Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.Here's my layout using one of my favorite manufacturers, American Crafts.This butterfly layout uses Doodlebug Designs paper.This card was masked with a Tim Holtz mask and inked with Ranger Distress Ink.
