Just Be Layout

Hope your week has been good. I had some computer problems and so glad to be back online. It is so amazing hooked we are to technology.  I did good after a few days of no computer but if I have to good any long, boy that would of been tough!!! LOL!

Well, I still have the scrapping bug.  This layout was inspired by the "Scrap Your Stash" challenge over at Two Peas.  The challenge was to use envelopes on a page. I had a ball finally using these envelopes I had sitting forever.  The bad news was because my computer wasn't working, I missed the deadline to submit this but maybe next time.

"Just Be" is my personal theme and wanted to make an inspiration page to encourage me.  I journaled in all the white envelopes inspirational thoughts for me. Yes, and these pics are of me. So cool for me to see me at two different time periods and how far I have grown. Oh, I need to hang this up so I can see it everyday.

Take a look!

Used Echo Park patterned paper, Crazy 8 circle punch, American Girls flowers, bling, Me & My Big Ideas envelopes, vellum envelope, and black heat embossed chipboard letters.

I just loved using these bright and happy flowers and colors.

These letters were brown but I added black glitter embossing powder, heat and that was it. So pretty!





Hope you enjoyed this very personal layout. Thanks Two Peas for the challenge.

    Very pretty and "airy". I like the envelopes holding pics, but I might still put one outside.

    I love this layout! I like the idea of scrapbooks as personal, visual journals, and this just fits the bill. Kudos.

Our Romantic Anniversary Dinner

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been great.  Today I wanted  to share some of our wedding anniversary pictures with you.  Last Sunday, my hubby arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at the very place where we had our wedding reception.  I was so excited when I found out that they set up a table for us to have the whole banquet room to ourselves.  How great was that??? The restaurant is right on the bay and has the most spectacular  views.  So when we arrived they had a table set up for us right by the windows so we could get an even better view.  They had the rest of the room set up for an event but I still could remember how it looked the night of our wedding with the lights and the dance floor.  Plus the left side of the room is nothing but windows so you can see more of this secluded bay. So as we dined we watched the sunset and it was so fabulous.  Even at night all the lights from the surroundin...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS.  I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps  Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child.   I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!

Cupcakes Anyone?

Happy Fall! Last Summer I took a cupcake decorating class at Michael's and I loved it. It was really great to learn the basics. This was all new to me and I was excited to try it out.  All Summer I wanted to make more but the weather got too hot to bake so I had to wait. Finally we had a break with some cooler temps and I was able to get back to these yummy treats.   I made two of my favorite colors: happy sunny yellow and hot pink. Oh, and they tasted good too.        Have you tried cupcake or cake decorating before? Isn't it like art? Maybe that is why I love it. Now I can't wait to make some more. Thanks for stopping by!
