Here's another layout I did Monday while scrapping with my girls! I had thrown together several "page kits" a while back for crops and such and this was one of those. The pictures are REALLY old so it felt good to get them scrapped! I used a random sketch I had printed off and the papers are Echo Par Little Boy. I also used Jillibean Soup Corrugated Stars and Bo Bunny to the Moon alpha stickers. Thanks for looking!

 This is a layout of an afternoon we spent at Schweizer Orchard a locally owned (I teach with the daughter in law) orchard near Savannah. We picked apples, played and had a lovely day! I used the Jillibean Sketch found HERE.

 I absolutely LOVE this collection! LOVE LOVE LOVE! I used a bunch of different elements from it and inked them all up! above you can see the diecuts and a label sticker some are popped up on pop dots. I love that you can get everything the paper, the stickers the die cuts for one price from Pink Whimsy! Trust me you will use every single piece of this paper and be wanting more! I know I am!

 Another cluster of embellishments!

 The title I used Jillibean soup corrugated alpahs and tiny kraft stickers.

So I was playing with my new Unity stamp To the Core that coordinates with Jillibean Soup Apple Cheddar Soup Collection from Pink Whimsy - available NOW! I wanted to make something so I thought I would try the All Things Unity for some Inspiration which sent me to etsy where I found this:

A cute little apple cozy from Natalya's Studio! But more so I liked the colors and was inspired to make something using the colors and apples! :) This is what I came up with:

 I kept it simple hoping to use it as a Make and Take at an upcoming show. I used Fine Linen CS, Apple Cheddar Soup pps, and stamped the sentiment and apple in Dark Chocolate ink. I also used some Dark Chocolate Bakers Twine. Super easy and will hopefully inspire people to want to stamp/scrap! I am trying to convince Christie, my friend and owner of Pink Whimsy to carry stamps, specifically Unity stamps that coordinate with paper lines! I have to convince her I can sell them! I don't think that's too hard but maybe it will be! So do you buy Unity stamps? For stamping for for scrapbooking?

Remember to order you can contact me, or order directly through my site and have it shipped straight to you!

 and here it is the rest of the birthday boy layout! and whaddya know, I used another Sassy Sketch! It was just perfect for lots of photos which is what I had!

I continued the spotted number strip across the back from the other page but the rest is pretty true to the sketch. These pictures are from an impromptu party we had for Blake at Andrew's parents in August two months before his actual birthday cause they weren't going to be up for his actual birthday. Here is both pages together ~ I think it works!

Lots of Jillibean soup goodness and border punches! Thanks for looking!

 Isn't this little guy from Verve just ADORABLE!!!!!!!! I used old Jillibean Soup Egg Drop soup from last Spring it is the best Easter/Spring line! I colored Mr. Duck with Copic markers and added some highlights with a white sharpie paint pen. So bright and cheery and springy! I know it's alot of patterns and I actually had a pattern where the pink cs was and thought it was too much - yes me! that's for you Natalie~! I just love all the layers and details! I used the Viva la Verve sketch!!!! So fun! I was inspired by the Colors at Off the Wall Craftiness - they just scream spring and Easter!

 This is for the March 7th Sassy Sketch - I started it and knew I was going to have to do a two pager with all the pictures I had - that and I am trying to do more 2 pagers for a certain sb store owner who I promote! ;) So I went ahead and made this page for the right side of the sketch! I really like how it turned out and I just love this Jillibean Soup spotted owl collection that I got at SCRAPBOOK CHICKS!!! It worked perfectly for this birthday layout but look closely you could so use it for many many other things!!!! TFL! STay tuned for the other half of this layout!!!!

I started this layout a while back and couldn't get it to work for the longest time!!! Finally saw this layout on my friend CHERI's blog and decided to use that sketch even though the deadline had passed for the contest - it's not always about the contests but about getting pages DONE! And once I started with that sketch it came together VERY quickly and I love it! All of the products are Jillibean Soup except the background cardstock. Most of it is from the older line Egg Drop Soup. I used a corrugated circle behind one of the stickers for some more visual interest. And used corrugated blue alphas - they are my fave alphas right now!

Here is a close up of the sticker cluster. It is also shows the papers I shaped with two different punches! I used my SU scalloped edge punch on the blue dot and my new EK success punch on the striped paper.

The original sketch is from Sassy Little Sketches.

 I know I haven't posted much, darn job keeps getting in the way of my scrappin! I have bought alot though so hopefully I will have some projects to show for it! Like today's - ALL NEW stuff! Fun! I love new stuff! As I was looking at this week's Get Your Sketch On, I saw a big picture with the three rectangles as paper behind it! 

 I had an adorable 5x7 picture of my youngest laying on my messy desk and it just happened to go perfectly with my new MME Fine and Dandy True Blue Collection that I got in the mail last week! I started pulling patterns and ended up with 5 - Natalie will have a coronary!

I used new Jillibean Soup corrugated alphas for the title and inked them a bit - hard to see in picture. I  just love these alphas! The kraft are my favorite - cause they go with everything! I also got red and blue! FUN! I inked them with Tim Holtz Wild Honey Distress ink which I think went perfectly with the colors in the MME Fine and Dandy. I just LOVE that line so perfect for boys, not too cutesy but not too girly! Just love love love it! I wanted to make a little cluster in the top right corner of the picture. First I decided it needed something along that edge and found that the ruler sticker from Crate PAper School Spirit Collection went quite nicely! Then on to the cluster. I used a polkadotted brad that came in the Coordinates Collections kit with the Crate PAper, used a Stampin Up Build a Brad by punching out a small circle from some more MME Fine and Dandy star paper and hand cut an owl and inked him up.

What do you think? I like the little grouping!

Then I wanted to add at least a bit of journaling, so I pulled out this single from Technique Tuesday. Capture the Moment, I like to capture every moment! I stamped it in Pallet Dark Chocolate and cut it out and inked it with Tim Holtz Wild Honey Distress Ink, I journaled on it with SU Marina Mist Marker - oh how I love that color! Would you like to see the end result?

Are you sure? Hee hee I am such a tease!

Ta-Da! What do you think. I like it! Thanks for looking today!
