October HIS Challenge

Here is my layout for the October HIS Challenge. 
Go to: www.happyinspirationalscrappin.blogspot.com to enter this months challenge.

I actually used pet paper from Bella Blvd.  I really liked the patterns on the other side.
I distressed the tags with ink and I added "cajun craze" ink from Stampin' Up! to add a vintage look to the background paper.

September HIS Challenge

I am a little behind in my posting, but here is September's HIS Challenge.
I used some old paper I had with coordinating cardstock and ribbon.  I cut the leaf our with the Cricut and distressed the edges with ink.  It is a simple layout for 1 photo.  I liked how it came out. 

August HIS Blog

I created this layout for our Happy Inspirational Scrappin' blog for the August Challenge.

the glittered butterfly embellishment was created using PK Glitz on a butterfly acetate.  We sell these products at our store, Scrapbooking's Inn located in Hellertown, PA www.scrapbookingsinnllc.com

Every month we have a scrapbooking challenge that is inspired by a quote. 

This is my layout for this challenge.  I used Cosmo Cricket paper from the store from the Odds N Ends collection.  I distressed the edges of the photo mats and tags.  This is a simple layout and I love the colors.

Father's Day

Father's Day was wonderful.  Breakfast in bed for the family not just the hubby.  He enjoyed the company.
Had some pool fun followed by dinner with the my Dad, Mom, and brother at McCoole's.  I had never been there.  I can't believe I had never been inside this beautiful historic building.  The woodwork was amazing and the art work really sent you back in time.  When I open a B&B I would want it to look very similiar to this place.  The food was amazing too.  Everyone enjoyed their meals.  It was a good time.

I gave my Dad a chipboard album for Father's Day.  He seemed to really like it.  I made it with mostly older photos of me along with a couple more current photos.  I used the Campfire Collection for October Afternoon.  I distressed the edges of the book, tags, and strips of paper to make it look vintage.
Here are some photos of it.

Surprisingly this project only took me 4 hours to do when I created it.  The first time I made one, it took me days.  I had so much fun making this for my Dad.

 

Thanks for stopping by and checking my latest creations!

Thanks for stopping by. I had wonderful time today at the Lincoln Elementary Crop Fundraiser. I created this layout for Get Your Sketch On #13 Challenge. Hope you like it. The background paper is from the Petal Pushers Collection from BoBunny. Here is a close up.

Shadow Box

I put my daughter's 1st ballet slippers and ballet recital photo in a shadow box. The shadow box came with pins which I used to pin the cardstock and slippers to the board.
