Natural Beauty

My daughter sure loves to pose for gorgeous pictures!

Here she is at the sunflower farm with some props:

It took me a bit to find just the right color scheme I wanted to use.

One can only use so much yellow on sunflower pages...lol.

I used this beautiful sketch from the Scrappy Friends challenge with Rochelle  Spears:

I love all the bunches of flowers.

Perfect for my pictures.

Thanks for stopping by!

 

Devilish

 Good morning!  It's a brisk Fall day today and before we head out for a birthday party, I'm working on a few Halloween pages from last years' pics.

My daughter was having fun using the filters on her phone and took this adorably devilish picture.

I played with the Scrappy Friends challenge and used Stacy's Tic Tac Toe board:

I went across the bottom and used flowers, a banner and some brads.

Happy to use up more of the felt web that has been taking up space forever...lol.

Thanks for stopping by!!

EEKK!!!

Yes, we love to drive our kitties crazy by making them wear funny costumes and accessories for photo ops...lol.

Here my son finally got the witches hat to stay on Gus Gus long enough for a cute couple of photos.

I think finally realized he was not going to give up until we got a good pic...lol

Poor Gus Gus...

I added some sparkly pumpkins from the stash for challenge #725 from Lasting Memories.

Gotta love using up more old stash!

Thanks for stopping by!!

 

Charm and Beauty

I have to say, going to see the sunflower farm has become an annual favorite of mine.

The blooms are just so gorgeous!

And there are so many of them, it's absolutely amazing to see.

Here I used many scraps cut into different sizes for the challenge #724 at Lasting Memories:

using ascending sizes of paper strips or shapes OR create a colorful ombre design to symbolize the growth. 

I added lots of sunflowers for dimension and a bunch of Nuvo drops too.

Thanks for stopping by!!

 

October 31st

Good morning!  Here is a fun page I did with a few different pictures of my daughter when she was experimenting with makeup techniques:

This was inspired by challenge #723 at Lasting Memories - to use something in your stash that is more than 2 years old.

I have had this die cut background piece for a LOT longer than that!

So happy to be inspired to finally use it!

Thanks for stopping by!!

 

 Happy Halloween!!  I was locked out of my blog for the last 2 weeks so I am trying to catch up on my posting with my new layouts.

Here is my page for challenge #722 from Lasting Memories:  to use 50% orange and a round element:

I dug through the stash to use up some scraps, die cut some leaves and added a doily.  The stickers are all new from Hobby Lobby.

The photo is of my beautiful granddaughter.  She is so cute!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

You bring the sunshine...

 Good morning!  It's going to be a very productive day today around the house, so I needed to get at least one page done before I started my projects:

I was inspired by this page by challenge # 719 at Lasting Memories:

These pictures are from this year's trip to the Sunflower Farm.

I love all the fun photo ops all over the area.

I used a mixed of papers, I die cut my circle and used a stencil and stencil butters to decorate it, and some flowers and ephemera from the stash.

Thanks for stopping by!!!
