Colleen's Wedding

Tyler was the ring bearer for Colleen's wedding. I was excited to use some girly bo bunny pattern paper for once. I usally try to sneek in some flowers, glitter, or anything else girly once in a while on my boy pages. I figured a wedding would the perfect occasion for it. Thanks for looking:)

4th of July 2009

I like this simple layout for these pictures. I created the star border using creative memories star border punch. I punch the white paper and added a blue strip on the back to show through. The 4th of July title I created with the cricut. The flag is just a piece of pattern paper cut in half to use on both sides. Thanks for looking.

I just love Bo Bunny products. I created this down by the water page using bo bunny popsicle line. I think it came out cute.

Skiing

This is Tyler's second year skiing, but last year he didnt't like it. This years he is doing really well and went on the little chairlift for the first time. I'm so proud of him, he is growing up so fast. The solid cs is stampin up. The pattern paper is just something I pick up at the Scrapbook store. I was inspired by another sketch from my sketch book. Oh and the title is made with my cricut.

Fishing Derby

Here is another layout I did at the retreat. One that was inspried by a sketch from my sketch book. I will post some more info about that book soon. All the solid cs is SU and I used some fish pattern background paper as well. I used my cricut for the title and the su scallop punch for the border.

Thanks for looking;)

Easter

This is one of my layouts I did at the Scrapbook Nook Retreat in Putney, VT. I arived Thur. March 5th at 2:00pm and didn't leave untill Sun. at 3:00pm. It was so much fun and I didn't want to go home. This was my second retreat at the Putney Inn and the food is great too.

I was inspired by a sketch in the Creating Keepsakes April 2009 issue. I thought to sketch reminded me of an egg carton so it would be perfect for easter. I used the a retired hostess simply scrappin kit and some leftover cm stickers. I wished I had dressed Lucas in more pastel colors, but I can do that this year.

Happy Scrapping.
