A Valentine Layout To Share...

Happy Sunday!  Today I am sharing a layout I created just because I wanted to create.  This layout was a labour of love of my husband and I.  He is so good to me and I haven't met anyone as patient and as supportive as he is.  He works very hard and he totally supports my scrapbooking addiction.  I don't want to get too mushy, but he is my rock and I created this layout for him.

The Good Life
Fancy Pants Designs "The Good Life" Collection
American Crafts Cardstock
American Crafts Flair Adhesive Badges
Tim Holtz Distress Inks (Festive Berries, Black Soot, Mustard Seed)
Wood Rubber Stamps (Hampton Arts)
Adhesive (3L Adhesives, Scotch)
Corrugated White Flute Tiles (Canvas Corp)
Circle Punch (Marvy Uchida)
Pen (Marvy Uchida)
Silhouette Cameo
 

Close ups of the hearts I stamped with distress inks and cut out of white card stock and outlined with a pen

I used my Silhouette Cameo to create a heart background and patiently used my small circle punch to cut out different patterned papers and adhered them to the underside of the background.  I then outlined them with a black pen 

I used a white corrugated photo mat to give some dimension

I used some mini letter stickers and a diecut for the title

I cut out the bicycle and used some flair buttons from American Crafts

The collection I used was Fancy Pants "The Good Life" Collection.  I love the pops of red, black, yellow and pale blue against the white background.  I thought it would make it not so girly for a Valentine's Day layout.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Sunday and do something that you love to do today.

Scrap It With A Song - Rumour Has It

The Rock Chicks are at it again scrapping and dancing to "Rumour Has It" by Adele.

 Don't you just love Adele?  I always love to scrap to her music and was so excited to create a layout.

Rumour Has It...You Take The Cake

This was a fun layout to create of my youngest son and I thought it would be perfect for Valentine's Day.  I used my stamps and paint dabbers to stamp the edge of the white card stock and then machine stitched along the inside edge of the stamped dots.  I also used my music stamp to give it a musical feel to the page.  Again I used my black paint dabber to stamp the music notes.  If you notice the loopy felt flower and the grey and pink rose, I created those myself.  Lastly, I layered some stickers and die cuts with dimensional adhesive squares to give it some dimension.  I used a banner diecut and some sticker die cuts from Bo Bunny Love Letters Collection.  

I hope you are inspired to play along!  Thanks to the fabulous DT member Dana Tatar, there is a great prize for you this month too!  Add your project created for this or any of our January songs for your chance to win 12 spools of colored twine from American Crafts!

Let's Capture These Sketches - Sketch #153

It's Friday!!!! That means it's our reveal over at Let's Capture These Sketches.  This layout has a lot of meaning to me.  When my husband and I were dating, we stopped at this same place in Banff National Park to take a photo of the mountains that we both love so much.  To make a long story short, this is about ten years after the first photo was taken.  We have changed a bit with a little more weight and gray hairs, but hey, isn't that what growing old together is all about?

Together We Live, Laugh, Play

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the piecharts and stars and sprinkled some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists randomly on the layout.  The papers are some scraps I had of Simple Stories "Summer Fresh" Collection.  I am loving Simple Stories at the moment!

Thanks for popping by and please check out what the sweet gals at Let's Capture These Sketches did and also see the sketch that inspired us.

Have a great Friday!
