1960's ATCs

Well, this is the latest ATC group I have joined! Looking forward to receiving these!!! Fun to do and fun to say it is before my time! But alas, not much before!

I added a little tutorial here. This is what you will need:


I made a peace sign stamp using an exacto knife, champagne cork, and stazon.
Draw the symbol with a sharpie, and then cut out using an exacto knife.
Use stazon(or whatever you choose) to create your stamped image!

Sophomore Year!

This picture cracked me up! I found this vintage card that had a wooly lamb on it...I thought it would be perfect. Not because it is adorable, but because our hair looks VERY similar!!! Hahaha I have been enjoying scrapping my high school photos! Tomorrow, I will work on my Freshman picture.
You will notice in the first picture I did not spell sophomore correctly...second photo has that fixed!






I used more of the Crop Suey Kit O'er the Rainbow PP. Vintage buttons, mini cards, page from an old dick and jane reader, Prima say it with crystals, onion bag, thickers, mini alpha MM.

Junior Year

This was a fun layout. I couldn't even begin to remember anything from this year...other than a sweet friend of mine who turned around in English class and asked me on the first day of school, "What happened to you over the summer....did you get hit with the beautiful stick or what?" I never forgot that...his name was Duke Moulthrop. We were just very good friends. Who wouldn't want a friend like that? hahaha







I used Basic Grey Sultry, Hambly overlay, cut out BG Sultry flowers from PP, sass turtle with hot pink stickles, random buttons, fibers, brads, butterflies from Camilles Crop Suey Kit, thread, mm mini alphas, thickers vintage playing card, random ribbon, aqua stickles, cotton candy stickles

Senior Year

This layout was so much fun to create! I am still working with Bree's "O'er the Rainbow" kit! There are so many pp and embellies in this! The thickers, buttons, ribbon, felt beaver(which someone made for me in high school over 20 years ago!) are all mine. The rest of everything is from the kit! I am telling you Shop Crop Suey kits are loaded!
With my 20 year high school reunion looming in the summer of 09, I am forced to reminisce of the "good ol' days!" Gosh, as i look back, if I knew then what I know now!!! I am looking forward to the big reunion next summer!

It's all fun and games until....

Totally loving Bree's "O'er the Rainbow" Premier Kit at Shop Crop Suey!!
I have created a total of 3 layouts, a mini album, an altered 3 tier photo frame and I still have tons of product left! It is such a great value for the price! The latest kits are even cuter than the premier!!!
In this layout, I highlighted some sweet photos of baby Jay as he belly laughed for the first time...and then it happened...like clockwork...and I just so happened to catch it on film! You couldn't photoshop it better than this!!! I pop dotted the main photo to make it appear 3D and draw the focus out to the main photo!

Letering was not part of the kit, nor the onion bag under the photo.

WOWZERS!!

You will see that I used two different Glitz PP. I loved these papers and this photo and papers just coincidentally were made for one another!!! I used Glossy accents on each of the small colored dots and on the circles I had cut from another Glitz PP. I pop dotted and made the small circles 3D. Fun easy page to complete that needs absolutely no other words than the one featured in the Title. As always click on photo to get good detail.


I loved this shot of my baby at 4 months old! How about those eyes? I have more shots of him with eyes wide open like that than I can even count! Thanks fo looking and as always your comments mean so much to me!

So U Think U Can...Walk Challenge

A new challenge is up over at The Story Matters! I love this challenge sight and have been enjoying the challenges!
This photo was taken the day Jay got his first pair of shoes at Stride Rite. He was so adorable that day! He was not so sure about shoes. He has been walking since he was 9 1/2 months and cruising around with ease! But the shoes, it was like a dog with shoes on when they walk and shake each paw...so funny!
