Christmas Card Photo Shoot LO

Hey there friends! Just wanted to share a layout I completed with the Christmas Card photo shoot pictures.Materials used: Echo Park-Everybody Loves Christmas. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Echo Park’s Paper collections. They are so bright and whimsical with lots of color and cute stickers.

 

Look at the little penguin, ain’t he keeeeyooooot!?

This LO was fun to create, I haven’t done a 2-pager in a LONG time! But I really wanted to include a lot of the pictures.

This page has a bunch of embellishments: Pom Poms, a real candycane, border punching, bows, sticker accents, felt hearts. and pearls.

The journaling was done on my computer using Word.

Here is the photo I would’ve chosen.

Thank for looking and I hope your inspired to create! Happy Scrapping!

Something to scrap about!

If you’ve been reading my blog you know my Mommy was here over the holidays! It’s almost become tradition that she’s here (wherever that may be: Alaska, Texas, Maryland) with us for either Christmas or New Years. This time she bought with her some pretty scrap papers she found at TJ Maxx. I think she picked up mostly because it had a lot of pink which is her favorite color. But it just happened to work out perfectly for a photo of her I’d planned to scrap. Papers used were:Fiskers Cloud 9 Design circa 2007. Love the gray and pink shades. I enhanced the flowers and paper with Stickles and Glossy Accents. I used DCWV The mini scalloped textured cardstock stack. And of course my new favorite embellishment, swirly pearls!

Here is a close up of the embellishments. I haven’t written in the journaling yet, I have to figure out how to shorten what I want to say. I love those word stickers that came with the kit. This page came together super quick because it was a kit and everything coordinated!

Here is a LO of my beautiful daughters last year at Christmas time. I used My Minds Eye Wonderful Winter Glittered Christmas Papers. I finally dusted off my Cricut and used her to cut out the snowflakes.

Here in the close up you can kind of see the stickles I added to the snowflakes to give them sparkle! Looking at these photo’s and looking at them now. The Pookie Doo has grown taller, thinner (her squishiness is fading) and too smart for her own good. The Munchkin has also grown taller, wiser and more confident. Watching them grow is so bittersweet.

Thanks for Looking!

I went on head and got her one.....

A cellphone! I got my 10 year old a cellphone a couple of weeks ago. She's been asking and trying to give me reasons as to why she would need one since she was about 8. Last year her school put her and her sister on the wrong bus (long story) but I nor they had any clue where my children were for about 45 minutes! If she'd had a cellphone then she coulda called. Well I got an offer in the mail thru my wireless service to get a free phone, free shipping, free activation. So I thought let's get her a phone. Her reaction when she recieved it was hilarious...she shouted, she danced, she hugged, she kissed, she lost her breath, etc. Ofcourse I had my camera handy to capture the joy.

Used My Minds Eye- So Sophie

FINALLY!!

You know what , I haven't scrapped in a coon's age (heard that on tv-lol). Well it's seemed like forever! School started, girlscouts kicked up again, soccer, dance....and that leaves VERY little time for scrappin'. Not to mention, being exhausted I had no motivation to scrap or inspiration until I was cleaning and organizing my area and I came across my Echo Park Sweet Summertime collection. Now when this line was released I drooled over it. I thought it was such a horrible crime to leave such pretty pretty paper uncut or glued! So yesterday night I got crackin' and let me tell you it felt goooooooood! FINALLY I  got a LO done! Here's what I came up with. Using picutres of my silly girls the morning of Erynn's 6th Bday.

I've been seeing these cute banners on tons of LOs since earlier this year and I've been anxious to do my own. Also those paper curls add such a cute element to the page. The quote I used is, "literal". Before Erynn came along Ryene would beg and pleade for a baby sister, well she got her wish but sometimes as lil sisters do, Erynn can be a lil pesky and when Ryene comes to complain I reminder she asked for her! Erynn always co-signs my statement.
