Scrappy Goodness

Again, it's been awhile. We have made some progess on our home projects front. The carpet is out of the pool room. We still need to tear out the closet, then we can get the beautiful wood floor refinished. New light is up in the entryway and most of the trim has had the paint scrapped off the edge of it and is restained to match the rest of the wood. We start shingling in 2 days.

Now on to the scrappy goodness!

I did this multi-photo lo about Amy's wedding shower last year. I based it off a Studio Calico sketch and I love how it turned out.

This lo was also done based on a Studio Calico sketch. It uses the Singin' in the Rain kit and I love the bright colors paired with grey. I've been gravitating a lot towards grey lately. LOVE!

Again, this was based off a sketch for National Scrapbook Day over at Studio Calico. See the grey again? I told you I have a thing for it! And those grey buttons in the top left hand corner? Love more! And I did some hand stiching around the bottom patterned paper. I entered this into a few contests at SC for NSD and I won one! I am getting a great prize of lovely My Mind's Eye scrap goodies!

I broke out the misting for this LO about Amy's wedding. I love how the butterflies turned out. The banner at the top is embossed with Zing! I love embossing now that I have the proper tools (wink at Michelle who got me none-embossing powder one year and I kept burning the paper!) I also embossed, misted and stamped the office tag on the right.

I had to document Max's super fluffy hair. It was so cute and now it's gone :( And I finally got a chance to use the fab chipboard that was in a SC kit way back either last spring or summer. I used it as a mask for misting on the left there. And I broke out my typewriter for this!


This LO took me FOREVER to put together. All those little squares and trying to figure out what to put in each one that corresponded to what we did on that particular day. But I LOVE how it turned out! Now if I could just finish the whole trip (I'm so close!)

*** Out for Pub!

And I love this pic of our family at Amy's Wedding. I love how the bright pink color of our dresses allows for such bright colors in the lo! Grey... again! And more embossing. I lifted a fellow Studio Calico member for a 'lift the person above' challenge. I need to participate in one more often, as this is what happens when I do!
