Head, shoulders, knees and toes

It's that time again! Time for the next prompt at Scrap that Baby! This time it's about Baby's cute body parts! I did my layout on Bekah and her sweet baby legs.




Here is a sneak peek at a layout that I did for Paper Lovelies. I was picked as Designer of the month for October!! Check back in a couple days and I will have the complete layout posted.



Don't forget to turn in your layout for the challenge at Scrap that Baby!

Save your packaging!

Scrapbook embellishes seem to come in packaging that almost rival the goodies themselves! Be sure to save your packaging because there are many creative things you can do with them...




Like this flower container from Prima. The container in it's plain form is great, but adding some flowers, ribbon and patterned paper makes it absolutely fabulous!!



I used more Fancy Pants paper in this project (love this line, can't you tell?) Isn't it amazing what you can do with an empty scrapbook container? You could fill this with candies, or jewelry...the possibilities are endless!

(Sorry I don't have a step by step tutorial for this one...I was doing this as a last minute project and didn't even think to take pictures of the process until it was too late.)

she liked butterflies

The new prompt is up at Scrap that Baby! This time, in honor of Grandparent's Day that was a few days ago, the challenge is all about baby with the grandparents.

I chose to do my layout about my great-grandma Lu Lu.




I used lots of Fancy Pants paper in this one...I love this line!!

The journaling reads:

This was my great-grandma Lu-Lu. I was only 4 in this picture, so I don't remember too many things about her. I remember she liked butterflies and cookies. She lived in the downstairs of my grandparent's home. She travelled to many different places when she was younger because she was a stewardess.
Her couch was my safe place when people were mean.
She loved me and I loved her.




I love making those paper flowers!!




I never realized just how much Bekah looks like me when I was younger...we have the same smile!




Thanks for looking, and be sure to play in the challenge at Scrap that Baby!
