Can you stand to see more?

Two more layouts. I have to give myself a small pat on the back. So far I'm staying on top of my pictures.
The colors in this layout were inspired by a room I saw in Martha Stewart's Living magazine. I loved how they looked together. I think if I were to go back and redo this page I would put all three pictures across the top. I used mostly AC cardstock, AC details, AC fabric thickers and Basic Gray pattern paper.

This was a different layout for me. I like the circles and played it up a bit by using the ribbon bunching technique around the edge of the big circle. You can't see in the picture but I sprayed Glimmer Mist around the big circle. Everything is American Crafts other then the star punch that comes from Fiskars.

More Layout Fun!

I've been working on a family album. A lot of my inspiration has come from KP. I've said it before I think she rocks! Hope your creative juices start pumping.

The two camping layouts I used Cosmo Cricket's Earth Love line. The colors worked perfect for that rustic outdoors feel. I also used masking tape to add little bits of detail. Of course American Crafts product is used through out mostly in ribbon.


Richard designed the Heat Wave line with our friend Nichole at AC. I love the bright colors and fun summer feel. It worked out perfect for my Fourth of July pages. My husband is amazing!


These last two layouts are for my Sketchbook class. I love the color palettes on both layouts and really just had fun. So now that you have seen my latest get to work on yours. As always Brecreative!

Sketchbook Class Layouts

I took Kelly Purkey's  Sketchbook class and loved it. She mentioned doing another and if you like to scrapbook and want tons of ideas you should totally take it. Here are three of my layouts. 
I still have more to do so stay tuned in!




I used a mixture of American Crafts and Basic Grey products.

Spring Quilt

When you have a baby you get these tiny little receiving blankets that come in a pack of 4 or five. They are really cute, but as I mentioned tiny. Adelaide got some and we never used them when she was small enough. I loved the colors and patterns and thought "Hey those would make a cute quilt!" So a quilt I made and it turned out better then I thought it would. You all know that I'm not a quilter, but I really enjoyed this project and now Adelaide has a super cute Spring quilt.

I will hopefully be posting more scrapbook pages soon. I've been working on Adelaide's book and I'm in a great online class given by Kelly Purkey. She rocks so you should check her blog out. 
Happy creativity to all!

I've been making some fun neck scarves for Patina. I love how soft and comfy they are not to mention warm. Make sure you drop by and check things out.











Baby Book Layouts

I'm slowly putting together my little lady's baby book. Below are two pages that I put together the other day. The first one has a photo of her little feet. I love baby feet and pictures of them (not sure why). I wanted to keep it basic, clean and simple. I used cardstock, pattern paper to border the picture, made the ruffles out of a lace paper punch, fabric thickers and simple ribbon with a little bow.



In this layout I used cute pattern paper from Pebbles. It was so easy to keep this layout simple because of  the paper. I just cut around the big flowers and used them to secure the picture.
The adorable sticker says it all!
