Coffee

 Hello!

It's the first of the month and that means there's a new challenge up at Creative Embellishments!

I used chipboard and flair from Creative Embellishments along with papers from Pebbles and Simple Stories for this coffee page:

I added watercolor to my background using the pacaging technique. Then I added the green paper from Pebbles and machine stitched. I added the word coffee which I colored using an old October Afternoon mist. I colored the coffee beans with a Lindy's mist. I fussy cut the word "enjoy" from one of the Simple Stories papers and added a Simple Stories tag as well:

I colored the grinder with the Lindy's mist and the cup and saucer with the October Afternoon mist. I fussy cut the coffee from my photo and popped it up on craft foam:

I added some white Sculpted Stickers from Paper House along with a Coffee Flair, tangled thread and fussy cut flowers:

I also added strips of paper (map) to the left side of my layout. Not sure if you noticed... I didn't have the map paper in 12' so I used my 6x6 paper pad and tore strips. I used my circle punch and punched the words, added a fussy cut camera and flowers. I also tucked in a scalloped circle coffee cup:

Here is the mood board this month. The challenge also is to add a map or globe:

I had a blast creating this travel page and hope you will play along with us this month!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Taco Johns

 Hey there!

I played along with a sketch at Sketch-N-Scrap and used Pebbles for this layout of Sierra:

I layered up some of the patterned papers and then added my photos on top along with a few stickers:

I have been saving this taco and the taco truck for quite some time since I couldn't find these pics. I am happy I finally found them because they are perfect for those stickers:

I added some doilies and a few more stickers:

Here's the sketch:

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

I Love Coffee!

Hello!
I am back to share another layout with you. Anyone a coffee drinker out there? If so, you can relate to my coffee page. I used some fun Creative Embellishment chipboard and flair and combined it with Pebbles Girl Squad collection:

 

I started with a few  strips of paper, some torn and a border. I added some machine stitching and spatters. I used the I Love Coffee piece for my title. I sprayed it with with Lindy's mist and tucked in a fussy cut coffee cup from one of the papers:

 

 I added a fussy cut flower and a Heart sprayed with the same mist to the bottom of my page:

 

I fussy cut a few more coffee cups and flowers. I added the phrase die cut and a Coffee Flair:

 

 I tucked in the coffee cup from the Coffee Set and colored it with a few different mists. I added more fussy cut flowers and a tab:

 
  This was such a fun layout to create! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Thank You

Hello friends!
Although school is closed due to COVID 19, we are serving sack lunches and breakfasts in a drive thru setting at school. Local cranberry companies donated Craisins and a variety of juice for us to use in these. I created this thank you card to send to them:

I used a sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap along with Pebbles Family Ties collection for this card.

Here is the sketch:

Thanks for haring your time with me!

Thinking Of You

Hey friends!
I am on spring break this week and with all that is going on in the world with COVID 19, scrapping takes my mind off of it. It's my little get away from it.
I played along with a card sketch at Sketch-N-Scrap and came up with this card:

I used Pebbles Family Ties for this card.

Here's the sketch:

Hope you are staying safe and have a great day!

Coffee

Hey there!
I am back to share another Creative Embellishment layout with you. If you know me, you know I love my coffee in the morning. I not only love it, but need it. LOL! I used Pebbles Girl Squad and Studio Calico (Teal striped paper) for this layout. I heat embossed in black the Coffee A Hug In A Mug phrase and used it for the title on my layout:

 

I used the coffee cup from the Coffee Set and sprayed it with Heidi Swapp Tea Color Shine. I used the Scribble Heart Stencil to add some texture paste on white cardstock. I let it dry and then added some Lindy's mist. I fussy cut 3 of them out and added one to the coffee cup:

 

The scalloped circle is also from the Coffee Set and colored with the same Color Shine:

 
I added layers of patterned papers, torn edges and machine stitching to my page:

 
I added some Coffee Flair with tangled thread under them:

 
I love creating memories about the everyday life, do you? Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!

#Happy

Hey friends!

I used foam Thickers for my title:

I layered in a few more stickers and diecuts to the right of the photo:

Here's the other circle, along with some pennants and more stickers:

Soul Sisters

Hey there!
I have a layout up on the ScraPerfect Blog today and wanted to share it here as well.
I am sharing an easy way to add twine to your project. The easiest way I have found is using ScraPerfect's Best Glue Ever along with the No-Clog Writing Cap.
I used Pebbles Girls Squad for this layout of Sierra and a few friends.
Here is my layout:

Lay your twine where you want it on your layout. Put the No Clog Writing Cap that is attached to the bottle of the Best Glue Ever on the layout where you want to adhere the twine. Add a small thin dot of glue. 

Place the twine on top. Easy Peasy!

The glue dries clear so you won't notice it if you add too much. But remember, a little bit goes along way. Here are a few close ups:

I also used the Best Glue Ever to adhere my embellies on this page.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your day with us!

Fremont Street

Hey there!
Happy Saturday!
Popping in real quick to share a page I created for a lift challenge at Paper Issues. I used Pebbles Girl Squad and the teal paper is from Amy Tan On A Whim for this fun page:

I backed this cute frame with one of the papers from the collection and fussy cut some flowers:

These diecuts were perfect of this page about my friends and I in Vegas:

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Thank You Card

Hey there!

Hope you had a great Memorial Day! It was kind of low key here- just working around the house and lots of yard work. I did manage to get some early morning scrapping in yesterday.

Hello!

Hey there!
It's the first Monday of the month, that means a new challenge is up over at Cards In Envy!
Here's the challenge for the next 2 weeks:
Simple cards only. Think one layer, stamped on card base etc. Perhaps a card you can make in 10 minutes or less?? Any Occasion.

This card does have a few layers and some stitching, but it took me under 10 minutes to make!
