You Scream! I Scream! We ALL Scream for Ice Cream!

So....I think I went all out this year for my daughter's eighth birthday. We wanted to have an ice cream social so why not do it right. I made the invites, the dress to wear and all the decorations, even a little photo booth from her craft table. I took Chinese lanterns and turned them into giant ice cream cones. The kids had a blast making magnetic trays, pencil/note holders and eating all the ice cream they could stomach! Here's a few of photo's from the event.

PageMaps RW Laser Cuts Chipboard Contest

Ahhhh.....another PageMap challenge. I am so addicted to these challenges now. But, this time no running out and spending a million dollars to complete the challenge. This time I added a little bit to the challenge for myself....NO SHOPPING! Oh no...what did I commit myself to? With the added stress of not being able to buy new stuff for this one.....off to my mini scrapbook store also know as "my closet" to round up some supplies to get this done, all the while remembering there was a color challenge too! YIKES! I once had a vision to complete a mini album that doubled as a cookbook for my 21 year old. Of course when I had the vision (I don't want to say how long ago it was...) I bought all the essentials, but never completed the project (go figure?). What a better time than the present to use those supplies. So, with this layout I used the Nana's Kitchen w/ Glitter stack by DCWV to get me started. I also wanted to use these pictures of my little one holding a slice...

As promised!

Wow...two posts in one day!!! I was so excited about the sketch I turned right around and got busy. So...as promised, here is the layout that I made from the sketch that I created earlier today. The products I used were from the 35mm Studio Calico Monthly Kit. I love the hexagon stamp. I'd been looking for one for months so when I saw the one in their kit, I had to get the whole thing. I hope you liked this sketch and layout....there will be more to come! I'd love to see what you come up with from my sketch. Add a comment to this post with a link to what you've created!

Page Maps Contest

I love Page Maps and I can't wait for Becky's email every month letting me know that the new maps are READY!!!! When I saw the challenge for this month I was so excited. First...a new MAP! and second...the PRIZE! Webster's Pages! I LOVE WP's ! Here's is my version of Becky's sketch ....hope you all enjoy it! Life can't get any easier when you've got such great subjects to photograph and Becky coming up with the maps each month! (thanks Beck!) On this layout I used October Afternoon papers and note cards. And, who doesn't love a Prima Flower or two...or three ...or four....! I use a lot of Tim Holtz products (including Grunge Board - this stuff is awesome!) in my work and love using the Distress Inks everywhere! I used the blending tool to add color to the pedals of the flower and a slightly wet paint brush and more distress ink to add color to the center of the Prima flower. I plan to put this layout in a shadow box and hang it on the wall. When...
