Random Pages

Just a few random pages I've finished the past few months.
Social Hour Cosmo Cricket. Perfect for Magic Mike night!
Fancy Pants: This was originally a page kit but I threw caution to the wind and used a layout from CTMH instead! Crazy I know! This was me recycling years and years of Creating Keepsakes, Memory Makers, Rubber Stamper, Simple Scrpabooks magazines among other crafty publications. Dan was pissed because we had just moved all these boxes only months earlier, only to now be throwing them out. I tried to explain that i had to get rid of them in my own time, lol!
This was a kit but I'll be darned if I can remember where it came from.

scrapbook pages

Here are just a few random pages that I've finished this year.

This one is from a CKC class I took in 2011: Material Girl from CK. I normally would not do this much stitching on a page but I am glad i took the time to finish this layout.
This is one of my favorite layouts. I love the white space and the mixed font stickers. I have every intention of using this layout again.


Embellish It! 2011 Latest & Greatest with Basic Grey

These are from Basic Grey page kits. (purchased from Embellish It! of course)
The black mat on the right page is awaiting a photo that I have to get printed yet.

No explanation needed here....

Echo Park. I know this is from a 2011 class but I can't for the life of me remember which one.


These are pages I created from photos of our very first Creating Keepsakes Convention in Des Moines in 2010. The 2nd layout shows Heidi and Kelly Purkey. It was the first time we got to meet her. I took her Life's Lyrics class in 2010 (i don't quite have that mini album done, but soon i will and you'll be the first to see it!)


We had so much fun while we were in Des Moines that year. Fong's was packed so we sat at the counter by the window. Of course being with Heidi I can always look forward to making new friends. We enjoyed visiting with the guys sitting at the counter with us.

Waverly Themed Pages

These layouts are all from the Creating Keepsakes Convention in St. Louis 2011. The first two were from the "Bling It On!" class by CK. Lots of glitter and sparkle. Lots of glitter, lol!
This was from the class "Material Girl" also by CK. I think this was a Shelbi Bywater class! This is one of my favorite layouts.(in spite of all the paper flowers, lol)
This was from the Embellish It! class 2011 Latest and Greatest with Basic Grey.

Pages from Creating Keepsakes Convention | St. Louis 2012

Quick & Classy with My Mind’s Eye 2012: This class was taught by Sophia at Strictly Scrapbooking. She was a hoot! She had us all laughing from the get go and she put together some great pages with some really fun embellishments. I actually enjoyed the two types of flowers we created (i normally panic when they say we have to "make" flowers) with this kit. The crepe paper flower you can see below and there was another flower that was created with lace and a large glue dot. (That page isn't quite done yet!)


Got Your Number Album Workshop: This was a 3 hour workshop taught by Shelbi Bywater from Creating Keepsakes. Looking back i think this was my favorite class of the weekend. I am already planning other number oriented pages that will go in this album.



2012 Latest & Greatest with Basic Grey: This is a class i look forward to every year that is taught by Shelby at Embellish It! She is so much fun and she moves through the easy stuff so we are sure to have time to learn some new tricks! this is just one of the four layouts from that kit class.
I've been wanting to scrapbook these photos for a long time and while i was making copies i noticed my Grandpa's handwriting on the back of the photos. So i copied that too and incorporated it into the layout. His handwriting was always very hard to read so i plan on putting a "translation", so to speak, as a pull out tab behind the journalling. This layout originally had 4x6 photos laid across the middle of the pages with a bicycle motif on the right side. I ditched the bicycle and use a Close to My Heart alphabet set to create the title along with these great hot air balloon stamps from Stampin' Up!

Scrapbooking Off the Grid: This was another class taught by Shelbi Bywater (I'm a big Shelbi Bywater fan!)from Creating Keepsakes. I tend to be very linear in my scrapbooking so these layouts were right up my alley! And I always have fun travel pictures on hand, even if it's just "local" travel.
