Roxie Layout fun

This is a fun layout with bling and the set of 10 pocket.   On the back of that cheetah paper is ZEBRA print! The pleated ribbon is a great embellishment too!                                           

Here is just another fun layout we made at Detroit Regionals using the new products from the Close to my Heart recent catalog!   It worked great for these photos of Gracie showing us how to work the Wii when they lived in Defiance!    Now she is a Dance Revalution girl...no wonder at 5 she already has years of practice!                              

Napoleon Football is over for the year!

 Football has been part of our schedule since school ended last spring!   For the first day of school no fancy new clothes, just the shirt that proudly showed how Derek spent his summer.  Next was parent's night for both the team meal and game night.  After last night's play-off game, the season is over and basketball begins!  

Another paper that is being discontinued...get it while you can!

Girly paper with glittered chipboard and Cricut Art Philosophy flowers and mats...Stamped stitching...just need more pictures! 

Time is running out to get the Lucky paper pack!  I have used it for football, camping, and masculine cards!   Let me know if you want to order before the end of the year....

Here is just one of the layouts we made at Detroit Regionals!   It uses the Sonoma paper pack and the new MilePost shapes!  It features hidden journalling, just right for keeping the message private for my hubby!   It was fun to revisit 1997 when these pictures were taken!

This layout is with Wings paper, using a spritzer, reinker and water, a color was sprayed onto the paper and allowed to dry.  Next, a puddle pad was made with re-inker to stamp bird and butterfly.  Layer your papers, and add pictures and journalling.   Use waxy flax antenaes and pop dots to raise those cut out items.
