Aurora Layout 3

This layout was based on another CTMH consultants layout (Kelly Baxter-Fitzgerald). It is the 3rd layout using the CMTH Aurora paper packet and Aurora coordinating cardstock.  I did also add 2 pieces of Eggplant cardstock for the base pages.

 It is hard to see that there are 3 photo mats on each page in Sapphire.  I have popped the middle 4 x 6 photo mat just a bit so that the 2 side pictures can slide easily underneath the middle picture.

A journal spot cut with a die on hand is in the upper right hand corner.

Aurora Layout 4

This is the 4th and final layout from the CTMH Aurora paper packet and Aurora coordinating cardstock.  

On this layout the base pages are different colors as that is what I had left, so the one on the left is Sapphire and the one on the right is Sage.  My color in the photo is not great (sorry).  The photo mats are Charcoal. I also added a small Peacock accent strip. There is still some paper left, enough to make a card or add embellishments when pictures are added.  The title I made with my Cameo.

This is the second layout from the Aurora paper packet and Aurora coordinating cardstock packet.

 For this layout I used the Sage cardstock for the base pages.  The photo mats are Peacock. 

Two different sets of zip strips were used as well.

The journal spot was cut from dies I had on hand.  I will add embellishments once I add pictures.  The title I created with my Cameo.

The first of 4 layouts using the Close to My Heart Aurora paper packet and the Aurora coordinating cardstock packet.  

 I used the Charcoal cardstock for the base pages and Sapphire for photo mats.  I added some silver glitter trim from CTMH that I had on hand.  The journal mat was cut with the CTMH stitched square frames. I will add embellishments when I add the picutres.

Balloon-New-Mexico-Beginning-of-book

This is the beginning page for the start of my Scrapbook. I had all these balloon dies and they are on topic with the International Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque New Mexico.  A bit busy and crazy but that is kinda like me.  The Fiesta is crazy fun and there so many balloons that you have to be there to really understand the feeling.

These are the first pages in my vacation scrapbook.  I will most likely now do some normal pages, the below were all made with Mosaic Moments dies.

Blue Skies Layout 6

On this layout I have used printed paper for the base pages. This is the sixth layout from the Blue Skies paper packet and coordinating cardstock.

 I only had little pieces of other paper left from the paper packet, so I cut those into strips and used 3 different zip strips on this page.  Even with just a few different stips of paper you can add some excitement to your pages.  The journal spots were cut with a dies on Daisy White.

Yesterday and Today Layout 2

This was made with the Yesterday and Today paper packet from Close to My Heart and additional cardstock in coordinating colors.

The journal spots were cut with dies on hand and so was the lace border.  On this layout I edged everything in Espresso as I wanted a distressed look for this layout.

French Vanilla, Espresso and Toffee cardstock were added to the paper packet for this layout.

Blue Skies Layout 4

Here is the fourth layout from the Blue Skies paper packet and coordinating cardstock. This is a very simple and quick layout.  

Lagoon cardstock was added for photo mats and a Daisy White journal spot cut with a die. Pictures can also be added to the lagoon print or die cut or title.  As always I embellish when I put the pictures on the layout.

Blue Skies Layout 3

This is the third layout I made from the Blue Skies paper packet and coordinating cardstock.  So far I have made six and I may try and make one more.

I added some Sapphire and Daisy White cardstock for this page.  The photo mats and journal mat were cut with some dies I had on hand. You can even add 2 more pictures on the yellow print for a total of 6 pictures instead of 4 on this layout.
When a layout is simple I like to change it up and use dies to cut the photo mats.  The title was made with my Silhouette Cameo.

Close up of title and journal spot.

Blue Skies Layout 2

This is the second layout from the Blue Skies paper packet and coordinating cardstock. For the green base cardstock I have cut out the center so that I can use this paper in another layout as well.  This is great way to save fun cardstock when you are only showing the edges.

I added Canary and Daisy White cardstock to this layout. 

The journal spot was cut with a Spellbinder die and embossed. 

The title was made with my Cameo using the Harry Potter font.

Happy Times Layout 01

The below layout was created using the triangle one page layout that CTMH designed for Mother's day.  I have changed it up and added a second page as I prefer 2 page layouts.  I only do one page layouts for a beginning and end of a book. These triangle layouts seem to be all the rage right now and I really like them as well.  Something a bit different from the normal. 

I am using the old Happy Times paper packet, Daisy White, Canary and Mint cardstock.

  I do still need to add a journal spot and embellishments, however, I will do that once I add pictures.
