Vancouver View

This sure has been a scrappy weekend for me! I made a few more los today for a some different challenges, but I've missed my daylight time frame to take pictures (nighttime picture-page taking just doesn't always come out great!), so I'll have to share them tomorrow. This is a lo I made Friday night following this month's sketch on Inspired Blueprints (#43). I flipped the sketch for the second page in order to stretch it to a 2 page lo. These photos are from Prospect Point in Stanley Park, where there is a gorgeous view of the mountains surrounding Vancouver. I used one of my all time favorite scrapping lines, "Early Bird" by Cosmo Cricket. I mixed in some Little Yellow Bicycle paper as well (the patterned yellow), and combined some flowers and twine with the Early Bird chipboard. The title letters are both new letter stickers and chipboard letter stickers from Cosmo Cricket. My Mom used this sketch for some Halloween photos, and she used the Making Memories word fetti stickers to add captions to her photos. I loved the idea, so I copied it, using the "Great Escape" word fetti line for my photos.

Some Early Bird!!

These are 2 lo's I made today, both using a "Color Me Miki" kit from last June, which featured paper and chipboard by Cosmo Cricket's Early Bird line. The first lo is from the latest sketch on Inspired Blueprints (40). These are more pictures from Key West, this time at Ernest Hemingway's house. We didn't go in and tour, but got some nice shots of his home from the outside.

My second lo also uses the kit and Early Bird. These are photos from the Key West lighthouse, which is across the street from Ernest Hemingway's house. My Mom came up with the cute title, and I loved it!

Inspired Blueprint LOs

These are some los I made following 2 sketches from Inspired Blueprints for this month. The first lo uses photos from the Sussex County fair from last summer. I used pp by Nikki Sivilas Scrapbooker called "My Sweet Cherry Pie". Honestly, I'm not too crazy about it, so feel lucky I actually shared it...lol.

The second one I like much better! (I made this last night, and the other one tonight, sometimes your mojo just doesn't work some nights!). This uses photos from 4th of July. I loved the large star in the background and it was just perfect for the 4th of July. I used pp by Basic Grey (Boxer) and Melissa Frances (Little Guy). The little ticket is from the Melissa Frances Patriotic Ticket Book. The bingo card is by Jenni Bowlin, as is the journaling sticker. I cut the star and the banner from the Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge. For the banner, I actually cut out diamonds and then cut them in half.
