I'm sure this photo will make it onto a layout someday. A regular Thursday morning tradition.
Watching and waving as the street sweeper goes by.
Have an amazing day!

{aloha}
I came across this old photo a few weeks ago, circa 1977. You can tell it's the 70's, I'm wearing a rainbow shirt, carrying a leather purse that had flowers painted on (remember those?) and was growing out my Farrah Fawcett hairstyle.
It's not the best picture, but still a memory of a vacation I want to remember.
I used my Silhoutte for the islands and aloha, along with the May kit from the Paper Bakery. I also added some sequins, my new fave thing to use to a layout ;)
That's it for today, aloha.

{it's finally Friday!]
I have a new layout up on the Pretty Little Studio blog today!
Although I’m pretty sure this wasn’t an owls nest that we found on vacation, the cute owl flash card from the new Nature Walk collection was the perfect embellishment for my layout!
I added a bit of twine as a reminder of the little pieces of string the sweet birds had woven into the nest and a few flair buttons too!
Thanks so much for stopping by today, it's finally Friday and I couldn't be happier!

{While in New York...}
It's been almost 10 years since my last trip to New York. Somehow I never made a layout with pics of one of my favorite little places to shop.
The Ink Pad is one of those stores I could spend hours looking in. It's a paper crafter's paradise.
I used the May kit from the Paper Bakery which includes the cute DIY Shop ephemera pack from Crate Paper. Could the map and corner store piece be any more perfect! I also used one of the photo overlays as an embellishment. I think they look cool layered in among everything, not just as a photo overlay.
Thanks so much for stopping by today, I always appreciate the visit!

{Glitz Roadshow & a Sketch}
Here's a new layout I made with the "Glitz Roadshow" kit from the Paper Bakery along with the newest sketch challenge. Don't you just *love* the sweet Maggie Holmes camera paper :)
And here's the sketch I used for my inspiration.
And here's the sketch I used for my inspiration.
I used the Crate Paper photo
overlays to represent the squares behind the photo, then added bits and
pieces here and there for some layering.
There is still plenty of time to enter the sketch challenge, I'd love to see what you come up with!
As always, thanks for stopping by!

{I heart U}
Here's a layout I made for the Pretty Little Studio blog for this weeks "Out of the Box" challenge. This is the image I was given for inspiration:
Right away I noticed how the letters are in alphabetical order, but yet still have a randomly placed look to them. Here's what I came up with for my version:
I copied the look by using my Silhouette machine to cut out each letter, then backed the negative cut with the chevron paper.
I also added a heart to the alphabet, and backed it with coordinating
cardstock. A simple frame of two more pieces of cardstock completed the layout.
There's a story that goes with the layout, but since I write like a 3rd grade school girl with big loopy letters ;) it would never fit, so I've written it on the back.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

{cards and a NSD winner!}
I have 2 cards made with the May scrapbook kit from the Paper Bakery to share with you today. First up, I found this idea on Pinterest and thought it was sooo cute!
Thanks for sharing your ideas- some great inspiration!
"you can always count on me to be right here"
I used the number line cut file from the May kit and did
a little creative erasing with my Silhouette, changing it into two lines of
numbers and replacing the zero with the geotag
flair.
And then a card for everyday. Don't you just love the mustache flair!
And now the fun part! The winner of my National Scrapbook Day drawing is...
