Bo Bunny word book

Well here it is. A Bo Bunny Baby word book. This is a class. It will be on Saturday, April 24th. The best thing about this class is that Lynette has allowed us to book the class room for just about the whole day. Class will start at 10 am and go until 3 pm with a lunch break from noon to 1 pm. That's awesome because we will be able to create our embellishments in the morning, break for lunch and then come back and finish the rest of the word book. For this class we will be using all My Little Yellow Bicycle. You will be able to create a boy or girl version of this book, so be sure to specify when you register. The embellishments are stamped and then we will use Glossy Accents, Flock, Flower Soft, and Embossing Powder. If you have never tried any of these products you will surely want to sign up for this class and try out something new. This class is $40.00 for members and $45.00 for non members.

Another Valentine's Day Layout

This is another Valentine's layout. The scallop heart shape is a pocket to store all of Hailey's special Valentine cards. All the paper and embellishments are from My Little Bicycle.

Which by the way is the featured company of the month at Unforgettable Memories. Stop by and check out all the My Little Bicycle on sale at the store.

Happy Belated Valentine's Day

Here is the Valentine's Day layout I just finished for Adalyn's scrapbook. I used sewed on a red scalloped heart from Bazzil. I cut a heart using my Cricut and sewed on it as well. All the paper and embellishments are from My Minds Eye. I used my new Tim Holts paper shredder or distresser on all the edges. Distressing adds texture and definition to the edges of the papers.

Many of you have asked me how I keep up and get all my pictures scrapbooked having two little girls. Well this is my secret. First of all, Adalyn sleeps from 1 pm - 4 pm in the afternoon. I use this time to get my layouts done. While I am working on a layout Hailey is usually right beside me. She has her own kit with glue, scissors, ink, and stickers. We share the paper trimmer, border punches as well as her new favourite tool; the distresser. As I cut my paper I pass over the scraps to her. I also let her choose a few embellishments, ribbon or whatever she needs. I also give her duplicates or extra pictures to use. It is a great way for us to spend time together. I get my stuff done. She improves cutting, glueing, writing and best of all creative expression. She also learns confidence, independence and to share her side of the story. She gets to choose the titles of her layouts. Most of the time I write down her journaling as she tells it.


I am afraid she might appreaciate her layouts more than mine when she is older!

One piece of paper and some scraps

I completed this layout with just one sheet of paper and a strip of scrap paper. I also used a snowflake rub on, spiral journal page, bling and some sticker letters. This Fancy Pants snowflake paper is so pretty and goes great with any wintery photos. If you "need" this paper hurry down to Unforgettable Memories. There is only a few sheets left!

It's OK to scraplift

Last Friday I got together with some fellow paper crafters for a night of scrapbooking. When I go away to a crop night I like to leave prepared. I try to have my sketch, pictures, paper, and embellishments all ready to go so I can get down to business and not have to fret too much!

This is a layout from the January edition of Canadian Scrapbooker. I loved all the white around the outside edges

This is my version of the layout in the magazine. Remember a sketch or layout is often just a starting point. It may be all you need to get started. Look for some inspiration and get those photos scrapbooked!

Don't be afraid to mix lines. The paper on this layout is Bo Bunny. The embellishments are from the new Basic Grey Origins line. I don't do one pagers very often but sometimes there is no choice. I love this picture of Hailey and it will go at the beginning of her 4 year book.
