HaPpY Anniversay {HANG} IN THERE - #338 little red wagon

Hi there!!

Today is Hubby and I 

ANNIVERSARY

I made him this card:

(he IS the best hubby AVAR!)

I created using Bella BLVD Candid Cards, and layered  cardstock.

Stampin'up heart enamel dots

I love how it turned out!!

Inside text reads:

{HANG} IN THERE
WE GOT THIS

We had a lot happen this past year and survived it all,

even major house renos!!

(They started November 2015 and are COMPLETED - for now!)

I was inspired by: little red wagon #338 - TEXT ME!

I used my text inside my card

REALLY {{MUSTACHE}} & SCRAP - ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday - April 15th

HI there!

I am sharing my latest

ScrapMuch?

Sketch-y Friday

REVEAL

REALLY "MUSTACHE" & SCRAP

April 1st, I was truly BLESSED to sneak away for 3 full days of scrapping 

for the ScrapMuch? Spring Retreat at the beautiful Elm Hurst Inn

with my girls Ronna and Mom.
"this one's for the Girls!"

This page is screaming how silly we are and how much FUN

is to be had.

[ a little info to share, in order to make this weekend happen,

we were preparing for some major renos to be

completed while I was away,

my little would attempt his first solo, 2 night sleep away

and Easter Monday our basement flooded :(

needless to say, I forgot to sleep on Thursday

night but accomplished EVERYTHING!!]

Here are some close ups:

 I chose this Echo Park patterned paper (obviously!)

played with some acrylic paint and texture paste with

my Tim Holtz stencil.

My title is a smash up of: Fancy Pants mini-alphas, Mustache (I wore), 

Calico wooden veneer (altered) and Amy Tangerine Thickers (altered)

 I mixed in a film strip with a polaroid sleeve adding a stencil and acrylic paint,

Maya Roads metal mustache tied with red twine.

The addition of my mustache clip tops off this fun page!!

I tinted my kraft paper ric rac and tucked it behind my photos

and added Calico wooden veneer GO SEE DO

I had so much fun both creating this page and

spending an entire weekend scrapping.

Here is Laura's sketch:

Fuse Tool

Hi there!

Apparently, I live in a bubble and a little behind in the "NEW"

of  the scrapbooking world.

This weekend, I am retreating...

(Definition:  3 day full days of scrapbooking with a full ScrapMuch? store on hand at 

Elm Hurst Spa and Resort)

Elaine demonstrated the The Fuse Tool

SQUEAL!

I love , Love 

love it!
I could wait to start creating...

Here are a few cards I made:

 I up-cycled a large baggie and divided it into 3

sections.

The bottom was a Project Life card I added some corner 

sequins and inked the edges.

The middle section I added some sequins - wish I had added a bit more

The top portion I altered another project life card with gold.  

This is now the front of my card

- some lucky person will be receiving

Next, I did  a small card of thanks,

while I am away we are having some renos done to our house and 

I sent my little off to my friends house.

Bottom section is patterned paper cut to size (fitting into a small plastic baggie),

added a cut file arrow adorned with a heart enamel dot.

fused it

Middle section is red glitter and sequins

fused it

Top section, is a silhouette cut file "thanks"

I have to thank her for taking my little all weekend.

Truth is, I didn't get much done, other then fusing EVERYTHING I could

get my hands on. hahaha!!

I can't wait to keep creating with this tool.

Thank you for stopping by

SQUEAL - Looks good RIGHT?!

First Haircut - ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday

Hi there!

It's the first Friday of April

and I am packed and on the road for a

scrappy Retreat weekend

at the Elm Hurst Inn
- no joke!!

Today is a double page

ScrapMuch?

Reveal

First Haircut

 For Ecuadorians, it is custom to have your child's first hair 

cut at the age of 2, traditionally there is a big party and a hairdresser

guides everyone to donate and cut a lock of hair,

we opted for waiting until he was 2 and paying a professional!
(my sister cut my hair when I was little and have pictures to prove it LoL!)

My little wasn't sure if his hair would hurt being cut...hehehe

Left side

Right side

Here are some close-ups:

 

 Cut file title, adorned with his lock of hair

 Layered up loving this embelly (we love this photo of him with his tongue),
with a mixed layered cluster 

<<celebrate>> everyday moments, 

Mind Mind's Eye 2 brad, and an Evalicious capture camera

here is some layers and ink splatters to match the 

Bella Carta line.

Here is Laura's SKETCH:
