This Never Happens

Happy Saturday, friends!  I hope you're enjoying a relaxing day today.  Missy here to share a layout I made using the Sweet Girl collection from Echo Park.  These colors and patterns are right up my alley!  I just adore bright colors, and this collection doesn't disappoint.

I've been printing a lot of my photos lately in black and white.  I especially love how the colors pop right next to them.  It also helps if your photos have a lot of busy colors going on that don't really go together.  Plus, you can use any color scheme if the photos are neutral like this.

If you like this collection, you can buy it HERE!

I combined a die-cut title word with the alpha stickers in the collection.

I cut all those hearts on my Cameo, and then I backed them with patterned paper.

Lots of layers and mist splatters...my favorite!

Thanks for visiting us at My Scraps, and have a GREAT weekend!

Missy :)

The Future's So Bright....

You 80's music fans probably know the rest of that phrase....  :)

I combined some of the latest Fancy Pants lines including Trendsetter and Parkbench, as well as a few bits from Echo Park All About A Boy.

I used today's sketch on the My Scraps & More Sketch blog, but changed it up a bit!

A few of the stickers on here are from some old things I had in my stash.  I have been trying to including something from my stash on every page.

I layered some stickers, die cut papers, and buttons with a bit of twine, paint, and stitching thrown in.

Hope you have a bright weekend!

Boy Cards

How many of you are like me and when you have a card challenge you tend to go the feminine route?  It is so easy to make pretty girly cards.  Well the problem with that is I have 2 boys and 4 nephews, in other words lots of boy birthday parties.

I have actually resorted to buying a few cards lately because I had no boy cards in my stash and no time to make them.  I took my oldest shopping the other day and told him to pick out a card for his friend and his response was "can't you make one, these are all babyish".  How could I say no to him choosing one of my cards over a store bought.  I went ahead and made one and decided it was time to start making some boy cards to have in my stash.  I created three cards using Echo Parks All About a Boy collection.

A Little Swagger!

Hello and happy Wednesday!
Lisa here to share a layout using the Fancy Pants Swagger Collection. This is such a fun line!
I used an older photo of my husband on vacation in Mexico:

 

I love the hat:

 

and the staches are so fun, I just had to add one under my button:

 

I added a lot of distressing, ink and stitching on this layout to make it more masculine :)

 

hope you have a wonderful day!

Cherish and Everyday Cute

Hello and good morning...

I am OVER the moon when Tammi mentioned that she was going to be caring some of the Elle's Studio products in the store, and was super excited to see the Serendipity collection. I have been a HUGE fan of Elle's products for a looong time, and was even more excited when they started releasing paper.

Here is a layout the I created using the Serendipity line:

I esp loved how the paper actually had the CHERISH word on it, which helped make my title work easy for me. The Flowers paper had the number strips on the bottom of the page, which I used to make a list of things that I cherish about my lil one.

Next up, is a layout that I used the collection on:

I decided to go with a "grid" look and add a bit of lots of the papers to the layout.
I fussy cut out the leaves from the Cherish paper and added them throughout.

Make sure to head over to the My Scraps & More store to see how wonderful the Serendipity line is.

have a wonderful day,

Wendi
