Much Ado About Nothing: My Mind's Eye Paper

Sunday, July 22, 2012

Good morning and here's to hoping you have a beautiful Sunday!~

Today I have a very vintage "distressed" layout to share.

This is a layout I created using the "Nostalgic Summer"

I love these photos of Gage's team winning the Gold Championship

and really wanted to scrapbook it as a vintage style page.

This might be his last year playing and I wanted to remember every moment.

So I really took some extra time, I stitched each page around the edges.

Then before I layered them I used my Distrezz-It-All to "rough" them up.

It's a fun little machine, I LOVE it! :)

I cannot wait to use it on chipboard.

This kit was more than amazing! :) It was like making a little quilt.

I love the colors and it's perfect for that vintage vibe.

I also made a quick video on using the Distrezz-It-All, pretty handy dandy.

Anyways, it was a great memory and I canmot wait to get the rest

of these photos scrapbooked...you know after I get done sewing, being a baseball

mom, getting the kids back in school, school shopping, cooking, baking...etc...LOL

I imagine it will take me a year easy~

Have a beautiful day my friends,

I am off for a special evening, will tell you all about it tomorrow~

Good morning my crafty friends,

I had so much fun breaking into this layout! LOL I took some

iPhone photos of my hair in rollers on the way to school last week.

I had never done that before so I needed photos.

I printed them up and cut out holes in the cool paper from

I laid the photos behind the page instead of on top!! It was so fun!

I totally felt so artsy and kept it very whimsical.

I titled it "Ok Mom" because I told the boys "Hey I am taking you

to school in my rollers ok??" they just said OK MOM! LOL

I guess once your mom has pink hair the rollers don't really matter anymore.

This was a super fun kit to play with, I made the acrylic

butterfly window hanger and this layout so far.

I just love scrapping those everyday moments.

OH hey don't forget to sign up for the giveaway I posted

on Monday!!!

Happy Thursday my friends~
