Scrapbook Heaven Day 3

It's Day 3 of my scrapping adventures. I really did have a fun time using lots of my stash and hope you all have enjoyed seeing my layouts.

Well, today I have two fun pages to share. First, is a layout about DONUTS! It was so funny, I got a catalog in the mail and it had these cute donuts all over the cover. I mentioned it to my hubby how I wanted some. Then the next morning when I got up there they were!!!! Yes, I am so spoiled! LOL!

I cut the donuts off of the catalog and used them as a centerpiece.

Yes, they were yummy!!!

I liked adding my printed journaling too.

Finally, we went to an event at Macy's in celebration of Black History Month and fashion. So this layout is dedicated to that night. I really enjoyed listening to the legendary fashion model Beverly Johnson ( red dress) and former editor of Essence magazine and fashion expert Constance White ( in black pants).


I made the background. I cut out images from magazines, added a sheet of vellum and that was it. Easy!



These ladies were amazing! The host, Beverly Johnson & Constance White.


 
Thanks for stopping by for my 3 days of heaven! Hope you have a super weekend!

  3. The donuts look wonderful. Isn't it wonderful to have a husband who spoils you!

    What an awesome opportunity to commemorate Black History Month with such beautiful sisters.

Soul Sistah Painting

I love trying new things in art. It is like an adventure and a hearty challenge. So after I saw this picture of the soul singer Ledisi, I just had to try it. Love the dark eye shadow and the head tilted. So dramatic! When I first tried adding the blue eye shadow to my painting it looked cool to me. But when I had my hubby look at it he nicely told me the blue I did made her eyes look hollow! LOL! So I went back and added a lighter blue and that did it! So here are some pictures showing the progression of my version of Ledisi. Thanks for stopping by! Have a super day.

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and a cousin. It was so great to have m

Under the Trees (updated)

Last Sunday, my husband and I went to one of our local parks. It was a nice, sunny and warm afternoon but the breeze was just heavenly. We found a shady spot full of all types of trees and laid out and just relaxed. So here is a layout I did from that lazy Sunday. I scrap lifted this idea from Latrice Murphy's layout in the August 2014 issue of Paper Craft & Scrapbooking magazine on page 59. I saw the online copy and when I saw her layout, it went in my memory to try at some point. A great way to use up all those scraps I had sitting around, too. I love the wood grain paper paired with all the bright patterned paper.  We laughed as I took the "selfie" of us laying around. I splattered white gesso paint around. This little leather sticker was a fun touch. Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day! 7/25/14 After looking at this layout this morning I decided to add some gold glitter paper banners to really finish it off. Now I feel sati
