July reveal for The Scrapping Spot!

Hi All!! It's finally time to reveal the goods that I've been playing with!! It's the July kit from The Scrapping Spot which is filled with all of the summery goodness from Bo Bunny Barefoot and Bliss!!! This line is perfect for scrapping all of your summer pictures about being at the beach, at the lake, at the pool, or your kids enjoying popsicles!!!



Doesn't this look like a huge pile of summery goodness?!?!?! Other than the colors, I LOVE that this kit has some 12x12 papers and some 6x6 papers!! NEVER seen a kit with both! I also love the little bottle of glitter, the sampling of journal pieces and shapes, the glittery flower shapes, and the bling!! What girl doesn't love her bling?!?!

So here is what I created with all this yumminess!!

Cosmo Cricket - summer playdate fun

Another sketch challenge for me.....this time it's Cosmo Cricket!!! They posted this wonderful sketch by Yukari.




I am a HUGE fan of CC's so I have quite a few of their collections and I decided to mix a few for my layout. I used Delovely, Togetherness, Girl Friday, and Garden Variety (journal box). I chose to go with blue, red, and yellow for my color palette which in my opinion is a "can't go wrong" palette!! I decided to turn the sketch on it's right side so that the layered strips are vertical and used 2 horizontal pictures to replace the bottom photo. I also added some stitching to my cloud and some pearl dots to frame it all in.

Here is my sweet baby girl and pictures from our playdate at the pool last year. The kids always have so much fun playing together and adding water to the mix only adds to the FUN!!

Since I had some beautiful Bo Bunny papers in my possession and ready to be scrapped with I decided to take the Bo Bunny sketch challenge! And yes....everything I used is from my first DT kit (July's) from The Scrapping Spot which I am just over the moon about!!The pier paper from "Barefoot and Bliss" just begged to be scrapped and I had the PERFECT picture of my son and nieces & nephews on a pier! Love it when a layout just falls into place perfectly!! So with all that said, here is the wonderful sketch by Frances Sylvia:



And here is my layout which I pretty much stayed close to the sketch:

I'm designing for The Scrapping Spot!!

I am so happy to say that I made the design team over at The Scrapping Spot! It's been a while since I've designed for someone so I am a happy camper again! The girls on the message board are a hoot and I have many laughs the short time that I've been there. Love 'em already!! I have already gotten my July kit and have had fun making layouts as this is a fabulous kit!! It's the brand new Bo Bunny Barefoot and Bliss mixed with some summerific embellishments!! Here's ya a little sneak peak:



So if you're liking what you see....go check them out!!

Remember this day!!

Found this sketch by Liz C. over at Sweet Peach Crop so I had to have a go at it! Glad I did because I am very tickled with the results!!





So proud of my big guy....he finally learned to ride his bike this year! It took a lot of coaxing from Mom and Dad but finally he hopped on and took off after a few tries. We did experience some bumps and bruises but I think he's glad he did it!

Papers are all October Afternoon. Main papers are the new 5 and Dime and I mixed in some Schoolhouse.

Thanks for stopping by!!! :)
