A "Project" Card Box-The Paper Bakery

This little goodie was up over on The Paper Bakery blog yesterday.  I am hoping that it will give me the jump start that I need to get caught up on my Project 12 album.  This is sized for 3 x 4 cards.  I think I am going to precut some cute ones on my Cameo to have them on hand.  This is a great place to store them, so I can just grab this and start looking thru.  I am also going to put in random extras that I have left over out of embellishment packs to get them used up also!

Just a picture of the top of the cards.  There are tabbed file cards to separate your cards out. 

And this is pretty easy to put together also.  Which I LOVE!  I have had a few "altered" cut out files that I could not figure out for the life of me!

Hope you have a wonderful day.  I am definitely ready for the weekend!

Photographer @ Work-Playing with a Large Photo

So, a couple of weeks ago we went and got our pictures taken.  Our photographer, April, was nice enough to let me take behind the scenes pictures.

As soon as I look at this one, I knew I wanted it to be BIG on the layout.  And the black and white just gave it a feel that I loved.

And I am in love with this collection from Webster's Pages.  I love the fresh, fun  vibe of it.  And I hardly used any paper at all!    

Supplies:  Pattern Paper-Webster's Pages (Composition and Color/Sweet Notes); Memo/Camera/Banner/Letter Stickers-Webster's Pages (Composition and Color); Washi Tape-Webster's Pages (Composition and Color); Cardstock-WorldWin Paper; Letters-American Crafts Thickers; Grey Letter Stickers-Jillibean Soup; Adhesives-Scotch ATG, Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I am going to admit that the word "photographer" took me forever to get just the way I wanted it!

This layout all started because of this tag!  Oh and maybe that camera paper!

Tomorrow I will have a fun little project for The Paper Bakery, so stop back by!

Twinkies @ Work for The Paper Bakery

Sharing a layout I did with the May kit from The Paper Bakery.  There are so many fun papers in the collection it was hard to decide what I wanted to cut and what not to cut!  Since Amy and I were both wearing pink, I though the layout deserved the fun doily paper as the background!

We took this one day when we were out delivering meals.  Amy (the intern) is now officially done with her internship and I miss her bunches.  So happy that she is graduating and knows what she wants to do!

The Puppy in the Corner-Gossamer Blue April #4

Back today to share my 4th Gossamer Blue layout for April here on the blog.  I pretty much destroyed the kit and there isn't much left of it!

This look, this sweet look, is what made me fall in love with Sheldon.  I took this picture not too long after we got to the puppy party.  And he stayed in this spot for most of the time, just sleeping!  I went over and woke him up to play with him.

I got a little tired of using the frames, so I just cut one of them up.  There are 12 in the pack, which is nice, but I was done with them!

Just a close up of the journaling and the title work.  I made the speech bubble work!

I have to admit, I have really been scrapping some random pictures that I have found.  Most of them I already had printed out a long time ago. 

Well, that's all for today!  Hope you like baby Sheldon's picture!

Sheldon is Growing Up-A Paper Bakery Project

I forgot that I had not shared this layout with The Paper Bakery April kit-Lemonade Stand yet!  I used the digital files in the kit to create my background for the layout.  I just resized in Photoshop Elements and then printed out on 8.5 x 11 sheet of cardstock!  Love this background and thought it was perfect for these pictures that show how Sheldon has changed!

I love that pink geotag flair!  It is from the "Oh Happy Day" set!

I didn't realize it, but I have used this "moments" die cut twice now on two different layouts!  This flair is from the "Elle's Studio Mash-Up" set.

So remember, you can use those digital printables for a fun and unique background.  Plus you get more mileage out of them that way!  Have a great day!

This is Me Gossamer Blue #3

Just a quick update today.  I am hitting the bed early, but I wanted to get this post scheduled.  This is my third layout with my Gossamer Blue kit from April.  I went with the greens and yellows in the kit.

I don't rock a hat often, but one snowy Friday I decided to wear one to work.  I had to take a selfie, because it was snowing and I had a hat on!  (I won't mention how many times I took this!)
