More Layouts!

This is my 2007 Christmas cards! Also, this was my first try at the trees...loved making them!
Since my daughter is obsessed with Tinkerbell...I have had this layout in my mind since the trip in November. I love remembering this moment...

Love at first Sight

I have been taking a break from NYOBC since last summer, and I had a chance to work on a few layouts for this month's book Be Mine. NYOBC is a great way to get a jump start on your creativity. After I made these three pages, I couldn't stop! I have several more scrapbook pages to show...and I am also trying to catch up to Candi and how she is sticking with the Layout A Day Challenge. Great job Candi...go over to her blog and check out all of her layouts, they are amazing.

Just a few notes: the chipboard heart on the "Love At First Sight" layout is covered with strips of ribbon. I just put some adhesive all over the heart, laid the ribbon on it, then flipped it over and trimmed off the excess. (This was an idea that I saw on my Autumn Leaves 2008 Calendar.) On the "Love Is Here" layout, I used the negative space on my letter stickers because I ran out of E's! I am always running out of letters when I try to do titles and/or journaling, so I am going to start saving the letter sticker sheet and use the negative space! (Also an idea from the Autumn Leaves 2008 Calendar) Happy Scrappping!

I've Got to Go My Own Way...

A few days ago, I was trying to get Ella out the door for a few errands. I must have said something about leaving, and she turned to me and said: "Mom, I've got to go my own way. I need to leave." If any of you are familiar with High School Musical 2, I guess Ella has been watching a little to closely the movie that Sydnee received in her Christmas stocking...
