Beautiful Sunny Day

Happy Sunday,

Today I am sharing a double page layout I did of some pictures I took in VT while on a little scrapbook getaway. My friend and I took a drive hoping to get some really good foliage pictures. Our pictures came out great but the foliage was just starting to change so we did not get it at peak. I still think the scenery is beautiful. This layout was done just using some papers from my stash and a few embellishments. I cut some of the pictures down and set them on top of other pictures. I had ten photos I wanted to fit on this two page layout and that was the best way I found to do it.

Everything Mary

Happy Sunday,

This week I had to share my new journal bag by Everything Mary. I can't believe after trying several different bags I finally found one that holds all my journaling supplies and is super easy to access the supples.

There are several styles of bags and are very reasonably priced. Wish I knew of this line before I purchased all of my other bags. I got mine from Amazon.

Lobster Bake


Happy Sunday,

Today I have another layout to share. This was our annual lobster bake. The crowd was a bit smaller this year but we had a great time anyway. The lobsters and steaks were delicious. I made cooler corn on the cob, baked potatoes, cole slaw, and I cheated with the clam chowder. I picked the clam chowder up at Stew Leonard's put it in the crock pot and everyone thought I made it. I did tell them where I got it. All their soups and chili's are very good. To end the meal we had apple pie with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Later that night we sat by the fire and had a few hot dogs. What a fire without hotdogs???? Our last guests left around 11:30pm. It was starting to get pretty chilly even with the fire going.

For this page I just lined the base paper with 4 6x6 patterned paper on an angle matted my photos and put them down. I had a lot of photos to fit on these two pages. I did some journaling on a journal card, and made the sign for the fire, The camp fire was made by cutting 3 identical cut out in the 3 colors and then off set them and pulled some of the flames forward to mix them up. I cut the logs out of patterned paper that was wood boards, glued them to the back and front of the flames. Then I added a bit of yellow around the edges of the flames to deepen the color just a bit. Filled in the empty space with washi tape. It's the washi with all different cameras. You can't really tell from the picture.

Blocks

Happy Sunday,

Today I'm sharing another layout of my granddaughter Brooklyn. I purchased two sets of building blocks one for her and one for my husband so they can each have a car that they build. Grandpa was working outside in the garage so Brooklyn had both cars she was building.

Again, I am using up my old paper stash. I punched some circles out with a paper punch in two sizes and then added the sticker letters that had circled layers.  It's titled "My Blocks", I'm not sure if you can see it in the picture.
