Wanderful Layout #1

It's almost time for August, which means it's almost time for "Wanderful"- our August class theme! This paper collection from Close To My Heart is... well... WANDERFUL! (hehe)

Wanderful layout #1 is based upon a sketch challenge I entered at "Let's Scrap Challenge Blog"! My interpretation of the sketch is a scatter of photos, hand stamped journaling elements, arrow washi tape, and airplanes. I always feel the need to add in in just a couple more photo wells! (Sorry this layout is not filled with my photos yet, but I am waiting on the prints to arrive. It will be a page about my husband's trip out to Colorado to visit family!)

You can play along with the sketch challenges at let's scrap twice a month. Check in on the 1st and the 15th. It is a great way to hit the ground running when you work on your scrapbooking. You sit down to work with a pattern already decided!

Absolutely LOVE this arrow washi tape! It adds the perfect detail and is super quick and easy! It makes a layout look finished, much the way making a bed makes a bedroom appear more put together instantly.

I loved this sentiment above! "It feels good to be lost in the right direction". Adorable!

Life Is GOOD!

This week's challenge over at the Heart 2 Heart Challenge blog is "Life is Good". I was sorting through some photos and wonder what pictures I might use for this challenge... I stopped at this stack because as I was looking through the pictures I got a feeling inside that "Life IS good!". It felt like the right fit!

Life is good, and the paper I used is "Wanderful"! :) I love that there is PURPLE in it!

What better day to feel that "Life is GOOD", then on your Birthday!?

I hope you like my entry for my position on Team Slate of the Design Team. I encourage you to look through your photos and scrapbook the stack that speaks to you and gives you that feeling that "Life is Good". There is time to play along until the end of the month. I hope to see your take on the challenge in the entries!

Happy Crafting!

Life is a Beach!

Life is a Beach! I am beyond excited to submit my FIRST project created for my FIRST time ever serving on a Design Team. I am a member of Team Slate at the Heart 2 Heart Challenge Blog! This has been an item on my Bucket List for a couple of years now. It feels so good to be taking part in this adventure.

Learn more about how you can join in on the Challenge: Life is a Beach! Plus, get inspired by what the Design Team has come up with!

 

Summer is in full swing and it's the perfect time to set aside the chance to go play and enjoy the beautiful weather! It was a rainy day that I took the chance to escape to my craft room and create this layout for some of my FAVORITE Beach photos!

For my layout I followed along with a Sketch Challenge from Let's Scrap, 7-1-15! I hope you like my take on it.

I created my 2 page layout using the paper pack, "Brushed", from Close To My Heart. I loved how the pages matched my daughter's swim suit, plus the Sticker Complements made the perfect Title- "Sassitude"!

The other stickers from the Complements sheet coordinated nicely with some of the embellishment opportunities on the sketch!

Visit the other Team Members from the "Team Slate" Design Team and check out what may inspire you to create your "Life Is A Beach" project! Don't forget to link your creation up to the challenge!

Thanks for stopping in to see what I've been creating!

Life is a Picnic!

Life is... a lot of things! This week I call it a "Picnic"! Do you have any adorable photos that deserve a title like this?!

I created this title accent with the July 2015 Stamp Of The Month- "Life is Wonderful".

This theme is a challenge over at the Heart 2 Heart Blog! You have the month of July to play along with how the phrase "Life is a Picnic" fits your crafting goals. Check it out and join in the fun!

Brushed papers from Close To My Heart are the prefect complement to my Picnic photos! Green lawn with a touch of pink and yellow.

The above journaling blocks and "Joy captured" accent are stamps from the Brushed Workshop On The Go Kit! The metal accent flowers were part of the kit too, but can be purchased separately now that the kit is retired and out of stock! Get your brushed paper pack while supplies last!

Happy Crafting! HeatherJane
