The Dress, The Shoes, The Mum & A Winner

Monday, October 14, 2013


Friday brought back fun memories for me. I was helping Rachel get ready for Homecoming. I started to think about the time when I found the perfect dress. And let's not forget about the homecoming mum. We all wore them to school on game day. Fun times for sure!!!

I took Rachel down to the lake for a homecoming photo shoot. She started to get so tired of me taking shots of her. (LOL) She should be used to it by now. After all, her mother is a scrapper right? 

I did get some great pictures and wanted to use one on a page. Then came the task of looking for a sketch to use. I love to use sketches when I design a layout. 

I found a fun one from Creative Scrappers!


And I have a new FAVE paper line. Have you seen Allison Kreft's - Recorded collection? The colors and the embellies are fabulous. I will be using this one a lot.

Here are some close-up shots of my page!



I did add a few pieces from My Mind's Eye too. The stitched banner (above) and stitched element (below) are from MME's Cut & Paste collection. They are made of felt too. It adds a bit of fun texture to the page. 


And now for the Two Peas giveaway winner. Thank you to everyone that entered. Rachel picked the winner from a bowl this time around. She did have her eyes closed. (No peeking!!!!)

Congrats go to... 


Woo Hoo Kim Heggins! 

Please send me an email so that I can get your gift certificate info to you.
