Documenting Theme Park Fun

Image
I'm working on documenting our trip to a couple amusement parks.  This one is for Knott's. It was early December so although the decorations were up, my layouts won't be Christmas themed. However, I did use Christmas stacks for this layout. I used the DCWV Elegant Holiday and All About Christmas stacks.  Feel free to mix and match your  paper stacks! I think I have the most fun using more than one stack in each layout.  Both of these stacks include patterns that are not necessarily Christmas or Holiday themed, so you can use them all year round.  This layout is not particularly Christmas-themed. Although the theme park was decorated for the holidays, I only included one Christmas themed paper. I tucked the journaling in the pocket along with the map to make sure I include all the details I want to remember.  Ready to get busy crafting? Hope you have a wonderful weekend :)

Painted Backgrounds: Big Yay!

Last year, I got to go to CHA for the first time.  One of the days, I brought my little one. You know, gotta get them started early ;)  I still haven't published this layout I made last year soon after the show.  The big 'Yay' puffy sticker from freckled fawn was just perfect for this layout. This is seriously the feeling I had being able to go to the show.  This background is one that I created one night when I mass produced backgrounds using DCWV Embossed Bright and Whimsical Fun stacks along with a variety of Martha Stewart paint.  I'm so bummed that I won't be there this year but looking forward to all the new stuff! 

January 2017 Stack-a-holic challenge

The January challenge is here! It's a sketch challenge this time.  Here's my take on the challenge:  This photo was taken on  a day where I was taking a photo of my daughter with a fire truck. She gets excited and says 'help,' I say yes, the fire fighters are going to help.  The fireman walked by and gave her a sticker, so she's making a super excited silly face.  I hope you get to play with us this month.  Come to the DCWV Blog   and take a look at the card sketch as well as the inspiring projects by my design team sisters!  Happy New Year!
