Mommy and Me Making Memories Ella Layout





                                 Becky Fleck Sketch #368 from A Cherry on Top I used Making Memories Ella Collection: Animal Crackers Border & tag stickers; Die Cut Flowers Paper; Glitter Dot Paper and a matching cardstock; Teresa Collins Chic Bebe Girl Long Tags paper; Ranger Distress Oxide Picked Raspberry ink and blending tool for the edges of the papers and stickers. The Mommy and Me bling title as well as the cardstocks were all in my stash and do not have companies. The flowers are baby headbands that I like the colors of and purchased, cutting the elastics off. 
The Photos are of my daughter and I dressed as we were leaving the hospital after her birth, July 1995. And then, this last Christmas 2023, of us together. Wow! Beautiful memories!! Love her forever!!

Photoplay Hello Lovely double page Friends Layout




 

After attending the fabulous Stampfest Winter Convention in Clearwater, FL, I made sure to come home and make a layout of all of my friends I met up with. Using Photoplay Hello Lovely, and my Cricut Explore with the Wanderings cartridge and another one. I fussy cut from the Banner Day sheet, and used 2 sheets of the Lovely Floral for the bg of both sides. I cut the Fabulous cream with green dots down and place on top of the bg leaving 1/2" around outer edge. The So Sweet paper was used to cut on the Cricut for Friends. And the back side of Lovely for the flourish. Typed my journaling and printed and added it to the page. Hope you enjoy it!! I had fun and wanted to make sure to keep these memories!! What a fun time!

Road Trip layout


 

Using my stash: Sassafrass Secret Garden 12x12 pattern paper to play with this sketch. I liked the Bazzill Bling cardstock Sparkle color. The non-shiny side was used to mat the photos. The coffee cups and coffee scene are from Echo Park Paper Coffee and friends which fit this shop we had gone to perfectly. My circle die was used to die cut a piece and the tag and label for the date are both from a stash, and happy to finely use all of this!!

Word Art Wednesday Janary 31


 It's been an honor to be Word Art Wednesday Blog Guest Designer for December and January 2024 and this is my last post for this year! Thank you Karen and the other talented designers for having me! Details for the card: Using the Altenew Japanese Camellia Layering Die Set, Altenew Luxurious Motifs, and the lace die, with my Spellbinders Platinum 6, I die cut all of these layers out. On the embossed pink cardstock I rubbed white ink on top to add depth. I used pink Altenew inks for shading.

    And this week's Word Art Wednesday Challenge #623-624 scripture is wonderful. You can use it but is not required.

 This week's prize is from Top Flight Stamps for $25
