2015 layouts catch-up!

90th Birthday

I did not scrapbook as much in 2015 as I have in years past. But I must still catch them up. :) Unfortunately I don't know the order in which I made the pages, so I'll just have to post them.

My son's great grandmother's 90th birthday party. A spritzed doily, punches and a cricut background die-cut are features of this page.

All Boy

I actually don't like titles like this...  I personally think a girl can do exactly the same with the same toys and I don't make assumptions on what kind of toys my kid wants to play with based on gender. He likes some traditionally "girl" stuff too. This page was a pre-designed page when I got it, and I just added a few things to it like the fake "stitching".  Whenever I have a kit that comes with a title like this I've just used it. But that may change as I have so many pages with titles like this. I'm tired of them! lol

Believe in the Magic

This is a kit I purchased from Irene at Little Masterpieces. I love having kits for Yule holiday pictures. This and July 4th I tend to almost always use a kit! lol

Last of 2014

This boy

A layout with stash, I was hoping to use up everything in this line. I think I finally did.

Another friend of mine, Melissa, made this kit to sell, and I snapped one right up. I love the WRMK paper line this is from, and the kit was perfect for the memorial pictures for a friend of ours.  I found out that Melissa also put memorial pics on her example layout. Great minds.

Unique

I picked up this page kit at a scrappy garage sale for next to nothing. I used it for the last pictures left of the time period these were from and I think that finished out all the pics from that year! For such a simple layout, I like it.

Wrist

I broke my wrist the summer of 2014 at a festival. It sucked.

But you know, that's life. Might as well scrapbook it. lol
The layout is mostly a stashbuster, with a simple circle background from the cricut.

Pow wow, kit, Stampy

Pow Wow

We have an annual pow wow that attracts famous dancers and singers from all over.  I like to go watch, though I'm the only one in the family that does. I saw some amazing dancing.
The bear paw and feathers are cricut cuts.

Smiles Admitted

One of the page kits I made to sell.  I later added pictures to it!  It involved simple design, fussy cut tags along the top and cricut cut letters.

Stampy

 Kevin loved Stampylongnose on Minecraft. He asked me to try cutting our Stampy on my new cricut Explore so I did.

 It came out really well!

3 layouts

Mikey

A long time ago when Cricut would make images available for a limited time to cut free, I cut out this chili pepper garland and then saved it.  I used it on a page where we're at a mexican restaurant, celebrating with a friend. It went well with this We R Memory Keepers paper line.

Oh boy

Super simple page with stash, including a little bit of hardware from Tim Holtz.

Oh snap

Sometimes I have stuff left over after making a few layouts with a paper line, and there's too much for me to just get rid of it without some guilt. So I'll throw together a layout even if I don't have a photo for it, just like this one. Simple page, using up stash. I added a photo later.

Snap, Hoop, Judge

Snap

A quick layout thrown together with stash. Super quick and easy.  The hard part was deciding to put a selfie on it. lol

Hoop

There were hula hoops out at the children's museum and the kiddo gave it a whirl. (see what I did there)

I used a circle background from cricut, and found a cute doggie doing a hoop as well. The title letters are probably Thickers.

Judge

I was asked to judge the scrapbooking at a little county fair in a nearby town. Naturally I asked them to take pics so I could scrapbook the experience. lol  It was fun! A simple layout with stash.

Curious and Kits

Passionately Curious

Super simple page, loved the colors of this line.
Our public library has summer programs for kids, this one has to do with science. Mentos in the soda bottles. The science part was comparing the soda reactions... which soda shoots the highest geyser?  Turns out it's Root Beer. lol

This is a kit I designed for sale to friends. I don't make a lot of kits, and when I do there's usually only 5 available for purchase. This one featured colored burlap flowers and offering a custom title cut on the cricut for each buyer.

Fun on the 4th

This is a kit I purchased from Little Masterpieces by my friend Irene.
I rarely buy patriotic papers, mostly because I don't have enough photos to use up an entire line of them... it's just easier to buy a page kit and be done with it.

Catching up!

I have scrapped a lot since June of 2014 so I have a lot of catching up to do. LOL 

Birthday Bash

Shortly after making this layout, I decided to purge my paper flower stash. So this set of pages was made with the intent of using up a bunch that I had.  This is still during the time period where I was also adding a Charlene-handmade button to every page. :)

Coral Reef

Our museum had an exhibit of a community made knit/crochet coral reef. It was pretty darned amazing work. The museum tied it in with "clean waters" and the Mississippi. I used cricut cut images and title to embellish this layout.

County Fair

Not a lot special about this. I didn't feel the need to heavily embellish since the paper already came with the ferris wheel on it.
