Wedding Layouts

***This layout was published in the June issue of Scrapbook News and Review Magazine***


After 12 and a half years of wedded bliss I am finally getting around to scrapping the event! This week's challenge at Cuttlebug Challenges is 'Photo Inspired' so I thought this layout would be fitting. Just got myself a Cricut so this is the first thing I've used it on (the date). I also embossed the photo corners and the music tag in the song collage piece.

Here is my supply list:

Tea Dye and Old Paper Distress Inkpads

photo corner embossing folder by Provo Craft

musical note embossing folder by Provo Craft

copper fibers

cream, black and olive cs

epoxy tag sticker cut to shape of bottle

clock stamps

deckle edged scissors

old music score

old dictionary text

Black, White and RED w/Butterflies and Blossoms

This was such a fun card to make. I made at my friend Sheryl's house today. Probably drove her crazy cuz I wasn't prepared w/all the embellishments, etc so she/we kept having to go up to her craft room (a.k.a. The Candy Store for any crafter) for each thing I needed! Finally got it done---just in time for my friend Namita's bday manana ;)

I am submitting it to these 3 challenges:

Sunday Stampers: theme---RED

Sir Stampalot Challenge: Butterflies and Blossoms

Here is my supply list:

One card, two challenges.........

Was in a time crunch so had to make this in a jiffy. Went with the CAS style (thanks June). I am entering this in The Cuttlebug Challenges challenge for a child bday card this week. This is a card for my son's friend who is turning 10. At that age they don't want anything cutesy anymore. Went with masculine colors and twine for a boyish look. My son seemed to like it so guess I did okay.

Also, this is for Allsorts Challenge blog. They are turning '1' and are having a great blog hop with lots of yummy blog candy up for grabs. You should go check it out!
