July Layouts

I can't believe July is almost over, it seems like it just started yesterday. I have my July quilt cut out, but not a single block sewn on it. Hopefully I will get some done this week. I won't finish it but hopefully I will at least start it. Sharla is doing better, but still in a wheelchair, so my days are much busier than normal. Luckily I did get some layouts done to show you. First up is one using July Templatetopia by North Meets South Studios. I love those templates they just make everything easier. I also used Heart of a Friend Bundle by Trixie Scraps Designs. The photos are Tina and Ariella at her birthday party.

Up next is one I made using Love in the Garden pieces. If you love gnomes you will definitely want to get this kit. It is just so so so cute!!!! The photo is Callie and her "Beau".

Next up is a layout I did for a challenge on Trixie Scraps' Blog. It was a word challenge and the word was "Hot". I used King of the Pride for this one, because I thought the colors really worked with the word. I love the rich colors!!! The photos are Callie and Cole on Jockey Ridge.

And last but not least is the a layout I made using Got Glasses pieces. I love the colors on this one, and such wonderful elements. The glasses are just beyond cute!!!! The photo is Sharla, not really wanting me to take her picture, but alas I won that one..hehehe.

Ok that is it for how, but make sure you pick up some of these kits, they will be wonderful additions to your stash!!!!

Wrapping Up June

I can't believe that June is almost over.  Since I spent a lot of it visiting Sharla in the hospital, I got very little done.  But I did manage to get a few pages completed.  Also for those family and friends that follow this blog Sharla is doing great!!!! She started back to work this week part time and will go full time mid next week.  She was ready, sitting home all day isn't fun when you can't do much. We took mom's electric wheelchair to her office to use, so she can stay off of her foot as much as possible.

My first page to show you is one I made with It's His Birthday Value Bundle by Trixie Scraps Designs.  I love the mix of colors and elements.  I used photos of Cole being silly stringed on his birthday. That was one tradition that was missed this year because Sharla went into the hospital on his birthday.

The next layout using Spring Fling Value Bundle by Trixie Scraps Designs.  I love the soft colors of this one not to mention the wonderful flowers.  I used picture of Ariella from her birthday party.  I didn't get many photos of her smiling (I think was was a little overwhelmed). She is definitely a cutie when she does smile.

And my last layout uses Vacation Bible School by North Meets South Studios (aka Trixie Scraps Designs and Designs by Connie Prince). This kit is such fun, the colors are bright and cheerful and the elements are perfect for your VBS photos.  I used some of Cole from a couple of years ago when he was part of the VBS team acting out stories for the kids.

Ok that wraps it up for today, make sure you head over to Trixie Scraps Designs and pick up these wonderful kits soon!!!!

Busy June

I had planned a busy June, but it was going to be doing things like scrapping and quilting, not sitting in a hospital room, but plans change.  For those of you who are friends and family that follow this blog, Sharla is doing much much better and we hope to have her home soon.  But in the mean time I have gotten a little scrapping done and today I'm going to show you what I've done.

First up using June Templatetopia by North Meets South Studios and Rescue Me by Trixie Scraps Designs is my Tucker misses his Shar Shar page.  And he really does miss her!  I love the big photo templates, and this set is really wonderful.

Next up is a layout I did using Trixie Scraps Designs' Gotta Get It pieces called King of the Pride. Now talk about fun, I love these pieces.  The colors are rich and deep and she did a wonderful job with the elements.  I used some photos we took at Arbuckle Wilderness a couple of years ago.

And last for today is a layout I made using Bratitude pieces by Trixie Scraps Designs. This is a great kit to scrap those bratty kid pics and so much more.  I love the papers in this one, they are simply awesome!!!!  I used a photo of a brat I know, Angela.  Ohhhh ok she really isn't that much of a brat, but she has her moments.

I would suggest you head out and pick up the kits for your stash soon!!!!  They are all wonderful and I know you will be able to do lots with them!!!!!
