The Grand Canyon

Hey everyone! I hope you are doing well. 
 For this layout I started with a background paper from Heidi Swapp's new collection Hello Today. Then I added white paint to the background. Papers from Allison Kreft were used for layering. The die cuts are from DCWV Vintage Collector ephemera pack. I found it at Michael's craft store and I am in love, I might have to get another pack! I used black thickers for the title. :) Let me know if you have any questions.

Fun Day


With all the colors and layers on this layout I think it definitely shows that we did have a fun day! I am so happy with the way it turned out. 


I used a lot of embellishments on this layout. Heidi Swapp chipboard stickers, and clear pop pieces, Studio Calico wood veneers, tags, star sequins, enamel dots, and washi tape.  


The little feather is a mist able from Studio Calico. I sprayed it with Heidi Swapp color shine in Navy. 


The green pocket is K&Company smash book pocket. 


The stamps are from Heidi Swapp and I used her new ink pads! I love her new ink pads that you can find at Michael's Craft Store. 


Thank you for stopping by!! 
I hope you enjoy the process video below! :)

Christmas Eve


This is one of my favorite pictures from Christmas. I just love the party popper crowns we were wearing! So I knew I just had to do something with this picture! :) 



A mix of papers made it on this layout. Papers from Heidi Swapp, Recollections, & Allison Kerft. The news paper print is by Tim Holtz. 


The word "today" is a silhouette cut. 


I painted the silhouette cut with pink paint so it would match the background. 


I used black sparkly Thickers for the year. :) I love Thickers! I used enamel dots, sequins, and can you believe I only used one wood veneer on this layout! 



Thanks for stopping by!!! I hope you enjoy the video! :)

Christmas Layout


Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good Christmas!!
 I created this layout of me and my husband in front of our Christmas tree. I love how colorful this layout is. 
I used mostly scrap papers, so I am not sure what collections they are all from. I just loved the way they all looked together. :)


I used wood veneer arrows to focus on the picture.  


The word "smile" was cut from my new silhouette cameo. My husband gave me one for Christmas! I was so excited!! :) 


These star sequins are so cute, I just had to add them to my page! 


Enamel dots, are becoming one of my favorite embellishments. 


I used Tim Holtz tissue wrap behind all the patterned papers, I love the look it gives. 



Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy the video!! :)

Another Layout


Hey Everyone!! :) This picture has been sitting on my desk for what seems like forever. It was taken back in October while we were at the renaissance festival (one of my favorite places). I printed it out and then did not know what I wanted to create with it. Finally I decided to try and come up with something. I just love how it turned out. :) Most products I used were by Heidi Swapp. I guess you could say I am a bit obsessed with her products. Only the tissue wrap and sequin stars were not by Heidi Swapp. I started with a stencil and sprayed the background, and then traced around the stencil. Then I started layering tons of Heidi Swapp papers from different collections. I used epiphany crafts round 25 tool, a sticker that says the word "beautiful", a rub on that says "togetherness", and clear pop letters from Heidi Swapp.
I hope you like what I came up with! Thanks for stopping by!! :)

Hello Sweet Kitty


Surprise! I have created another layout!! :) I have been loving creating layouts so much lately. But not to worry, with December coming up, I am going to be making my first December Daily this year!! So anyways on to the layout... This one is of my aunt and uncle's cat and me. I think he is the cutest cat ever!! All of the paper I used is from Heidi Swapp, most of it is from the mixed company paper pad. I did use one paper from her serendipity paper pad also. I used her banner delights and a few color magic pieces. :) I love color magic! I did some misting and splattering on the back ground with color shine sprays. The colors I used were mustard, coral, and citron. I used the epiphany crafts round 25 tool for the little embellishment next to the large "hello" circle. That tool is one of my favorites!! :) The last few things used on this layout are 3 gold foam stars, Tim Holtz tissue wrap, and a shipping tag for hidden journaling. I love using hidden journaling. I hope that you like what I have created! There is a start to finish video down below! Thanks for stopping by. :)
