Paper Issues | Halloween Theme

Hello Friends!

The Theme this week at Paper Issues is - Halloween Hootenanny! I will be the first one to admit that I might have 2 pages with a Halloween theme in all my albums. It's just not something hubby and i " celebrate " and since we work shift work - we usually end up working for those that have children.

This is a layout i created in 2011.. !! yup, so many moons ago but it's still relevant to our theme this week. It's a photo of my niece Megan ( age 4 ) and she totally loved her little witch outfit.

The papers used to create this was an older collection from Bella Blvd called Too Cute to Spook! 

You can purchase the latest Bella Blvd Collection here at Paper Issues -- Remember you can save 20% Off by using my name KRISTINE as a coupon code!

She is ... 10 | Layout

Do you ever try and create something totally out of your comfort zone? Ever get bored with your pages or maybe that's just your " Style". Well sometimes when i'm creating I feel like i'm stuck. I love most of my pages but often wish I could do a little bit more. This layout is kind of a .... I'm gonna do something different layout.

I was playing with a little Bella Blvd and wanted to add something different to my page. Stop the layering, and maybe do... something with a diecut background.
Well, this is it!

I'm not crazy about it, but i don't dislike it. It's different, and i'll leave it at that!

She is ... 10

what do you do when you want to create something " different" a sketch? a challenge? a scraplift? Please share!

Thanks for visiting today ;-)

She's Lovely | Layout

Hello Friends,

I've had a great deal of fun the past 2 saturdays - scrapbooking with some friends and catching up. It was much needed time away!

Today, i'm sharing a page I created using Fancy Pants - Trendsetter. I love the mint green and navy blue in this collection. This picture of my niece was perfect for it!
Sometimes I struggle for titles on my pages, lately I'm not stressing about it too much - if i can't find one i'll put it aside and come to it at a later time. This is one of those pages. I was finished last Saturday but waited a week before I finished it with a title.

She's lovely, she's growing up, and she's so spoiled rotten!

Thanks for peeking today!

Blessed | Layout

I can honestly say that when Bella Blvd arrived at my door step in a lovely pizza box I was THRILLED! This Snapshot collection is fabulous and I've already created 4-5 layouts with this collection. I Can't Stop!

The Every Day Snapshots | Layout

Another Layout to show you today! I've been to 2 crops in the last 2 weeks and the first crop i was able to finish 4 pages, which was a big deal for me ...

The crop was organized by Let's Capture Our Memories and - The Every Day Snapshots - was created in less than 1 hour for the hour challenge. So much fun! I love those challenges cause i don't have time to think about it.

Again for this layout I used my favorite collection - Snapshots from Bella Blvd. You can also purchase this collection at Let's Capture Our Memories. I think all papers and a collection pack are still in stock! HURRY!

Have a great week!
