Scrap Our Stash - Dots and Stripes


Good morning!  It's time to reveal my (late) layout for the Dots and Stripes challenge at Scrap Our Stash.

I worked with lots of older stash from K&Company for my page.  :)


I mixed quite a few different patterned papers and added some polka dot ribbons.
For an added twist to the challenge, we could add butterflies, birds or bees.
With this collection, I found a bird and a few butterflies.

I cannot wait for Spring!!

Stop by the Scrap Our Stash blog and see what the SOS DT designed for this challenge.
And if you play along, you will have a chance to win an awesome prize pack!

Don't forget to leave some love along the way!

Have a great day!!

Dots, Stripes and Friends

Hi there!  It feels like it's been forever since I last  posted a page!
Now that Spring is here, the kids are busy with sports and outings and I barely have a minute to myself.

I did want to share a page I did for the DT Reveal at Scrap Our Stash. 
The challenge was to use dots and stripes...and for an added bonus, add some butterflies, birds or bees.

Here is my page:


I pulled out an older collection from K&Company.
For the stripes, I used patterned paper.
My dots were on the pretty ribbons.
And with this collection, I was able to add butterflies and a bird!
The bird was a surprise find!

I hope you stop by the Scrap Our Stash blog and see how the DT use this challenge.
So many stripes and dots and so much inspiration!

Have a great day!!!

Scrap Our Stash - Mixed Alphas and a Sketch

Good morning!  I'm here with my take on the new challenge at Scrap Our Stash

We were challenged to use Mixed Alphas for our titles on our projects.

And there is also a sketch to go with this challenge.

Here is the sketch:


And here is what I came up with:


I use some old alpha stickers for the first part of my title.
For the rest of the title, I used DIY Thickers.  I was able to verrryyy carefully add 2 different colors of glitter to my letters. 
I dug WAY deep into the stash for these papers from DCWV.  The accordian flowers are from K&Company..no idea how long they have been around, but so glad I finally used them. 

Check out what the SOS DT created with the sketch. 
There is lots of inspiration on using mixed alphas!
Be sure to stop by!

Have a great day!

ALL BOY

LOVE the March 15th Challenge from About a Boy!
The challenge was to use your scraps. ...and I have LOTS of them.  I guess you can say I am a bit of a scrap hoarder.  I'm always so sure that I will eventually need that one little piece of paper.

Here is what I put together using bits and pieces of a mini kit from Echo Park:


I also fussy cut the arrows from some scraps.
The stars are felt pieces from the stash.

Here is the sketch from Creative Scrappers that I used:


Getting dark...time to figure out what's for dinner!

Have a great evening!!!

Ready for BASEBALL!

I am a HUGE baseball fan and I am so anxious to get this season started!!

GO WHITE SOX!!!

Here is page to get me started:


This was inspired by the challenge at About A Boy.
We were to use some of our stash that is at least a year old.
Not a problem!
I have had tons of stuff sitting around forever.
I was able to use a cluster of baseball stickers, some felt stars and some star ribbon.
The baseball print paper is from Fancy Pants.
The title is a chipboard piece from Want2Scrap.  
I used a white paint dauber and outlined the whole piece in red marker.

Counting down the days till baseball!!

Have a great day!!!
