Fantastic!!

 Nothing better than spending a very late evening at Disney to see the castle lit up so magnificently!!


LOTS of goodies from the stash:
doily
misting spray spatters
sequins
buttons
brads
a puffy shaker Mickey head
and some Mickey gold pieces

I used some brads in the centers of my flowers for challenge #689 - from Lasting Memories Stick two or more items together by using fasteners: brads, ribbon, twine, staples, etc.

While I had every intention to use many more items, the page started to look too busy, so I gave up.
Which means, I just may have to try again!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Merry Christmas!

 I know, it's February, but I also know that not many of us are caught up on our Christmas pictures...lol.

Here is a two page layout I made using a lot of pictures:


The tags were a box I found at Hobby Lobby a few years ago.
The title and the trees are sticker sets that have been around waaaaay too long.

I decided on this theme for challenge #687 from Lasting Memories.
We had to use the complementary colors from this chart:


Red and green were the perfect match.

And I now have all the Grinch pics done!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

My work day is over and I am sooo glad to be home!

Here is a card and a layout that I made for this holiday and for the challenge from Lasting Memories - to create both using the same products:



I started out using lots of Bo Bunny stuff from a reallllly old collection.

While I had everything out on my desk, I put together this card:

I hope you all have a fun and loving day!!

Gardens

 I looked at what was left of our 2022 Disney vacation pictures and decided I need to either work on them and get them done, or purge some of them.  I decided to do both.


I used an older collection I bought on clearance at Hobby Lobby quite a few years ago.
I added some washi tape - that was swallowed by the embellishments...lol.
And I used some twine for the banner.

This week's challenge from Lasting Memories #686 was to use this sketch:


With the added twist to add washi tape to your page.
That's another thing I need to either use or purge.

I also used this page for the new Tic Tac Toe challenge from Scrapping with Stacy:


I went straight across the top:
1 word title
washi tape
banner


And I got more Disney pictures scrapped!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Happiness is...

Skipping around all over the place and since I had my Valentine's stuff all over my desk, I pulled these fun pictures from the box:



I used the sketch from Lasting Memories#685 challenge, with the added challenge to use some hearts.



Lots of random stuff from the stash - the stickers, the alphas, the Mickey heads, Nuvo Drops and some ric rac.

Love You Forever

 Mid-week working!

I don't usually work on Valentine's Day pages but these pictures of my daughter in this gorgeous red dress at a dance with her boyfriend inspired me to use some stash I had.



I was also inspired to use challenge #684 from Lasting Memories which offered a new sketch and an added challenge to use some tags.


I made my tags from the patterned paper and added ribbon, twine and buttons.
The flowers are layered with buttons and twine.

And I bashed some stash!

Thanks for stopping by!

BUSTED!

 It is currently -11 degrees outside!!  Needless to say, I will be hiding inside the warm house and working on some pages.   No reason or sale can entice me to leave my little bubble!

I started out by working on this page of my naughty kitties:



I just got this kit from Simple Stories delivered the other day.
I love all the bright colors.

All of the fun patterned papers were perfect (purrfect) for this week's sketch challenge at Lasting Memories with the added challenge of using 4 or more patterned papers:


Amazingly, Penny stayed off of my desk and let me finish this page without adding fur to my adhesive.
