Today, I cranked out a layout for my daughter's elementary school album. My goal is to finish this album before she graduates high school, so I am running out of time! Anyway, I have most of her 2nd grade photos scrapped, so just three more years to go. This layout was for her school portrait, which for some reason I skipped over when I was scrapping the rest of second grade. No big title and no journaling, since all the information will be on the facing page with her class photo.
Recipe:
Color Kaleidoscope & Vicki Boutin Mixed Media papers (American Crafts)
Burgundy floral paper (from my stash, source unknown)
Black cardstock
Lagoon, Ruby & Blush ink
Chocolate ribbon
Staple
Magnolia - Sundance Imagine rub-ons (MME)
School Is Cool Ephemera Icons (Bella Blvd)
Beetle Black & Bon Bon Heart Assortment puffy stickers (Doodlebug)
Gift Tag Thinlits (Sizzix)
Cricut Artbooking cartridge: camera
Pattern: TN Time Sketch #9 with Lisa and Lori (originally for a traveler's notebook, but worked well for a 12x12 layout as well)
Challenges: Cut It Up Challenges #341 - must use a die-cut and embellishments (mine are the puffy hearts); Paper Rocks Scissors #9 - used scissors to trim the ribbon plus fussy cut the background paper for the die-cut camera; NBUS #79 - my never before used schtuff is the Sizzix tag die that was a prize that I finally managed to use; Neglected Stuff - mine is the burgundy floral paper that's been sitting in my stash since 2006 and the two rub-on flowers that are probably the same age as the paper; Love Those Pretty Papers - anything goes with lots of pretty patterned papers.
