Right on Top

Hello everyone! Hope your weekend is going well :)
    This picture is from our vacation to France 2 years ago. We made it to the top of the Eiffel Tower! This is the view from the 2nd floor. Honestly, the 2nd floor was better for pictures than the very top. There are still so many pictures from that trip that I want to scrapbook! I really had  fun with this LO. I used mists on the background, strips and the doily. The banner is hand cut triangles on some twine.Very simple LO, really. The journaling is kind of faint but that was the plan.

Details:
Papers: Antiquities by GCD Studios.
Alpha stickers: For the Record collection by Echo Park.
Mists: Maya Road -Metallic Latte & Creme Metallic; Tattered Angels- Candy Apple .
Stamp by TCP Studios and doily from my stash. 
     The alpha stickers are from this cool shop I just found called My Scraps and More, they also have a blog. I hope you check them out. I really like the customer service :)
But before you go...

Let me tell you:
     I'm very excited that my 'Sweet Little Baby' layout was chosen as the 'Friday Favorite' over at the Crafter's Companion USA challenge blog. Check them out as well and enter the February challenge for a chance at winning 3 of these beautiful stamps and the CD:

Strawberry Kisses EZMount Stamp Bundle - Receive all 12 Stamp Sets and the Papercrafting CD-ROM Free!
Hope you find some time to craft this weekend!

    Congratulations on the Sweet Little Baby Layout! Well done you!
    Love your Paris one and it looks as if you two had a great time over there.
    Just back from CA and once again I regret not having got in touch with you, we could maybe have met up. I go down to LA on the train each time we go and make it to Olvera Street and Chinatown.

    Hugs, Neet xx

I'm so excited about this blog hop! I've loved Faber-Castel products for a long time and it was so much fun to combine them with my favorite DCWV textures. There’s some great prizes too- Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft and DCWV will be giving away $75 in product at the end of the hop.  To win, follow the list below and leave a comment .  The hop will end at 5PM EST on Friday, March 28 th .  The winner will be announced on Monday, March 31 st on each of the company’s blogs.    I really wanted a special page for these pictures. They give me a very HAPPY feeling  and I love the sun rays coming through the trees. I wanted to mimic that in the background paper. I thought the woven craft cardstock was a great background because its a little less stark than white for these pictures.   I wanted the journaling to be more private so I made it a pull tab behind this cut out tag from the Bohemian Sunrise stack.    ...

Christmas with Clear Scraps & DCWV

Welcome to Day 2 of the DCWV and Clear Scraps blog hop! You should have come from Britt's blog: http://pinkpapercrowns.blogspot.com Thanks for making it this far!  On to the project... I might have a LO or 2 about Christmas....Why? I just never get around to making more of them! The Holidays are usually too crazy and then I get into doing LOs of just ever day stuff or travel pics... and the holidays just get forgotten.  This year, I'm ready! I'll have the album pre-made, I just have to stick on the pictures and add some journaling! I used this 8x8 tabbed acrylic album from Clearscraps to create a Christmas mini that is ready to go.  The papers are Christmas Memories with a little bit of the Christmas and winter Diecut stack, the Christmas basics 6x6 & the Burlap stack. I love clear albums because I like to see the layers through the clear pages.    I folded the 12x12 papers in half and cut them to create pockets for ...
