CR84FN67 Color Challenge!

This is a new Color Challenge that I stumbled upon on Pinterest, after my friend Casandra pinned it. I LOVE Purple! This color challenge was an absolute must for pages I needed to make for my Wedding Album!


Plum, Gold, and Tan. Here is the 2 page layout I created based on this! You can play along at the Spark Your Creative Spirit CR84FN Challenge Blog too!


I used Bamboo (Tan) bases. I built on them with Smokey Plum and Gypsy Purple card stock. I added purple Ribbon and ties. My Gold is large shimmer brads that anchor the ribbon ties.


I thought this color scheme was the perfect fit for these pages I wanted to make about my Husband's grandparents who were all able to attend our Wedding! I used the little cricut cut shapes as journaling areas to put thier names and the number of years they were married. We are so glad they could all be at our special day!

What special pages have you made for your own Wedding Album?

Happy Birthday Dad!

It is always fun to make Brithday cards for my Dad because it usually means breaking out my robot stamp sets since he is a Robot enthusiast. But this year I was excited to be a little less predictable! Thank you to the "Scholastic" kit from Close to my Heart I was armed with the perfect paper! I used the papers with the old wooden letterpress alphabet and book spine collection. My Dad has an appreciation for old letter press style and also is a collector of books- has an extensive personal library.

Moonlight Scrapbook Bonus Extra Layout

Have you gotten your Halloween photos printed? I'm wanting to get mine printed and in my albums before my camera fills up with Holiday Photos! This is an extra layout I created with the scraps left over after I designed 4 layouts using the Moonlight Workshop on the Go Kit from Close to my Heart.


I used the Moonlight Compliments Dimensional Elements as chipboard accents. I really like the title, "A Haunted Halloween".


I combined what I had left of my Haunted Assortment gems with the banner pieces from the Complements. They look great together!


What do you think?

Okay, now that I have Halloween out of my system... standby for Thanksgiving and Christmas ideas!
