Try this Tuesday

I love adding my "grands" art work to my layouts!!! It breaks up the photos and saves a piece of their original work because so much of it hits the trash!!! I hope you give this a try and save a piece of original art work of your kids or grands!! They will love it when they grow up!!! I have shown a couple of ways you can include it -so give it a try!! Thanks for stopping by!!!

I almost forgot about this being Tuesday! Ugh!! Have you ever taken one die cut paper , cut it in half ( right down the middle) and use it for two layouts. I love how the die cut paper adds character to the layout-so I do this often.
I have even used two different die cut papers, cut them in half and use each half on one layout-really different and interesting look!!! Get you some die cut papers and experiment with them-I know you will begin to love using them. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Summer time.....


Summer is here!!!!! These were done with "Free Spirit" by Little Yellow Bicycle. I love the bright colors and the 70's feel!!! Almost brings tears to my eyes-I was a 70's kid in high school!!! You can find this and many more, actually much more at Craft Crossing in Gonzales. Pam has the "coolest" stuff in town-all kinds of crafty goodies. Check out my class on June 26th @ 2:00. We will be doing a layout using Jenni Bowlin and a bonus project!!! I will put up pictures in the next couple of days!! Have a good one and do something "crafty".

From this-
to this!!!

From this-


to this!!! Take a layout that you have done and add some more "stuff" to it. In both of my examples I like the ones that have more on them than less. I know it is a personal preference but "try it"!!!! You can even do the reverse -instead of adding take off and see how you like it. Some fun things to do - always training your EYE for the best you have to offer! Thanks for stopping by!!!
