License to Chill


Well here it is going to be the first day of fall tomorrow and I'm still scrapping summer pictures. I always seem to be a season or two behind on scrapping pages. These are photos from our summer vacation in Key Largo, Florida. I used the Cosmo Cricket "Snorkel" line of paper and embellishments. It's perfect paper for the summer. I used the Stampin Up! "Just Beachy" stamp set to make the fish and station wagon with the surf board. I stamped, used colored pencils, cut out, inked and pop dotted them before adhering to the page. For the bubbles on the fish I used Cloud Nine "Rain Dots". Thanks for checking out my pages.

Life is Beautiful



Hi - I hope you are having a great day! Christine gave me this beautiful photo of my parents and I just had to scrap it. When this sketch came up on 52 Sketches 52 Weeks, I knew it was perfect for this photo. I had just received my Scarlet Lime kit for September and it had this fantastic "Vintage Ruby" exclusive Scarlet Lime paper in the kit. Since my mom sews just about anything and is a quilter, I knew this paper was perfect. This year my parents are celebrating 52 years of marriage - how exciting. I used Jenni Bowlin chipboard buttons and alpha letters, stickers and ATC trunk card by Vintage Ruby, a Melissa Frances vintage keyhole and miscellaneous ribbons from my stash. Thanks so much for checking out my layout.

Key West


This summer we went to Key West and this photo was taken while at the southernmost point in United States. We were only 90 miles from Cuba. I used the Basic Gray "Lemonade" paper set, chip stickers and element stickers. I also used a K & Co rub on. I did this sketch for Let's Scrap #120. Thanks for stopping by!

Father's Day


This year on Father's Day we went to Sil and Lori's for a barbeque. These are photos of our family. I did this layout for Color Combos Galore and used Stampin Up! paper sets "Party Night & Day", "Delicate Dots" and "Raspberry Tart". The stamp I used was the "Medallion" stamp by SU!

Key Largo


This is a Sketch Challenge I did for Jillibean Soup. The Jillibean Soup products I used were "Lentil" paper, "Soup Staples" paper and a green journaling sprout. These are photos of Rob and I while in Key Largo, Florida. We were on a glass bottom boat ride to see the coral reefs. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my blog.

Happy Birthday Andy!



We celebrated Andy's birthday this year with dinner from our favorite restaurant, Naunas. We had salad, baked ziti, chicken parmesan, and Italian bread. We all enjoyed a delicious birthday cake for dessert. For these pages I used a Fancy Pants kit called "About a Boy" by Michelle Coleman. The colors were fun and so were all the embellishments in the kit.
