Sisterly Love layout

Here is a layout I made of my daughter's Heather and Kristy.

We were going for a walk along the pipeline at camp, when Heather and Kristy grasped each other's hands.
And I actually had my iPhone with me, so snapped a photo :)
Kristy showed me how to add text to my photos on Phonto…isn't this photo adorable :)

I used some of the left over papers from one of my Crop and Create kits to make this layout.
I love this Butterfly paper, so so pretty and I just gushed over it matted with the brown card stock.

I added this tag to this tiny kraft bag, that I inked up.
I added some wabi tape to the bottom…..perfect match to this butterfly paper.
Don't you just love when that happens :)
I double punched the "Love" in powder blue and one in black to look like a shadow.

Because we were heading out on a walk, I added this sentiment from one of the papers from this kit.
I happen to have this stamped compass piece with me. I must have made it for a different project, but never used it…again love when this happens :)

Here is the second page to this layout.
I had shared it "Here" in this post.
Not as matchy matchy as my other 2 page spreads, but love how they look together :)

Onto My Day:
Ashley and I went for a shorter walk tonight…but we still got one in :)
Here was the sky near the end of our walk.
I thought for sure it was going to rain..but it hasn't yet.

Kristy made supper tonight.
Something new…and it was delicious.
It had hamburger, cheese, salsa, tomato soup and lots of taco chip….yummy.

Kristy also just called me into her room where she had a stash of Dad's oatmeal ring cookies.
She had two left and gave me one….boy, I love that girl :)
I'll start the healthy eating tomorrow?

I hope you all had a very creative day today :)

Happy is This Way

A layout of my girls :)

I made this layout when I was on my Creative Getaway with Debbie :)
This is the second page to a 2 page layout I did.

I have been trying to use up my kits before the Crop & Create event this month.
I told myself, I can't purchase anymore kits from the event, until I have completed all of the ones I had purchased from the last 2 years.
Honestly though…I was just saying that, as we all know I would purchase them, even if I didn't use them all, lol.

I have to say I have been doing really well.
This page was made with leftovers from one of the kits :)
I sure know how to squeeze a lot of extra layouts out of these kits I tell ya.

Onto My Day:
I had great plans of cleaning up the house and working on my journal.
I tidied the dining room, and then chatted on the phone most of the day, lol.
Heather and I picked Kristy up from work, then went to Ashley's for our nightly walk.
Actually just Ashley and I went for the walk.
Because I have to wear open toe shoes, because of my boo boo, my other foot was sore from wearing flip flops.
I have a blister on my good foot and in between my toe.
Later on, Kristy and I went for a walk to grab a couple of groceries.
Heather said she would pick us up, if me feet hurt….but I made it the whole way there and back :)

I hope you all had a very Creative Day today :)

Beautiful Photo Shoot Layout

Sharing another layout today.
I have to say, this one may be my simplest layout I have ever done.
But, I wanted to keep the focus of this layout on these beautiful photos of my gorgeous daughters
Here are both pages together.

This is the first page of my 2 page layout.
Even though these photos were taken in the Spring, I used Autumn coloured papers.
The reason being, the photos pop off of these colours.
The second reason, nothing has bloomed yet, so it looks more like fall then spring.

When my daughters did this photo shoot a few years ago, I didn't see all of the photos, only the one they gave me for Mother's Day.
I think that they all turned out beautifully.

This is the second page to my 2 page layout.
This is the photo that my daughter's gave me for Mother's day, they enlarged it to a 18x24 print.

It is a simple layout.
I mat my photos and added some o-ordinating paper that I cut into strips.
Lastly I added some pretty dimensional stickers to the corners.
I am sure these layouts still took me a few hours to put together though ;)












I did a quick video on this layout.

I hope you all had a very Creative Tuesday :)
