Brothers...

Hi Friends!  I have a layout I'm entering into the LGS Let's Get Inspired issue #5 sketch challenge.  It was so much fun getting creative with this sketch.  I used a lot of Cricut Cartridges on this layout.

For the tree I combined 2 different cartridges.  Camp out for the branch and Hoot and Holler for the leaves.

I pulled out my Creative Memories circle cutter to make all the circles.

My Precious little Grandsons.

We Are Family...

Hi Friends!  Can you believe we are over half way through the month?  This summer seems to be flying by.  I'm excited to be going on a road trip with a friend next week up to Indiana to see family & friends!  I hope to get some great pics to scrap!

Scrap Stuffz "Inspired by Challenges"



I was inspired by the color of the birds and the bottle for my color palette.  I chose to add seagulls on my layout for the birds.  The pine cone inspired me to use a tree on my layout and I chose the palm tree.  The last thing that inspired me was that it was outdoors and I chose to use an outdoor photo.

Outdoor Adventure...

Hi Friends!  Today's layout is of my husband and grandsons.  My husband rescued a turtle in the road close to home and kept it to show the kids.  They loved the experience of seeing a large turtle so close!  Of course the turtle had other ideas and didn't stick around long.
For my page today I chose to use a sketch from  Let's Capture Our Memories.  I was drawn to the sketch because you could use four or more photos on your page!  I have to admit the sketch was a little out of my comfort zone I have gotten in a habit of using one or two photos on a page.  However this time but I was inspired to give it a try and I'm so glad I did!

  For the title I chose two different fonts and welded them together in the Cricut Craft Room.

He's A Natural Putter...

Hi Friends!  I have another layout from our Putt Putt Adventure.  I chose a sketch from Sketch ~N~Scrap and used the same papers to coordinate with the other layout I had posted.  My grandson Isaiah is a natural putter!  My husband and myself were floored when he made a hole in one on the first hole!

Wet Fun!!!

Hi friends, I thought I would share a summer layout with you to warm you up!  My grandson loves anything to do with water.  I bought him a water table to splash in and of course we had to get the hose out to really get wet!
I have recently found Kiwi Lane Designs and just fell in love with their technique they call Framing which is a 4 step system: 1.Visualize 2.Cut & Trace 3.Replace 4.Cherish.  You really should hop over to their blog and see how the system works.  I originally had pinned a you tube video and noticed that they had other videos to watch.  I was hooked and watched all 6 videos multiple times.
 The sketch is a two page layout but I only did one page.  I love the results and can't wait to try another one of their sketches!

Here's my layout-

The paper pack I used had this coordinating paper and I saw splash's when I looked at it so I fussy cut all my splash's.
