Hello everyone!  … I’m still going with my layout-a-day for Lent project… three more to do and the project is done!! I thought I’d share todays layout, I used one of CZ Design’s layouts on top of a 12×12 base and Little Feet Digital Designs  Aure il ague Oregon kit….so glad I remembered it had a stick!! Have a great evening everyone!

Memory Keeping:: Layout Share – Not Enough Caffeine

Gasp!

I know, two posts in less than a month…alert the media.  Today, I wanted to share another digital layout I did last week, this one featuring two of my favorite people.

So I’m the Creative Team Leader for LFDD, and when Janet told me she was working on a Coffee themed kit, my first thought was…oh man, I don’t drink coffee, how am I going to use her kit?!  Never fear, I always come up with something, and I have a few more ideas up my sleeve…  I can’t believe this photo is only 3 years ago, the girls have changed so much in three years!!  This my friends is why I’m a memory keeper, to capture these little moments that will not come this way again.

Kit:  “Coffee Shoppe” from  Little Feet Digital Designs.    My dear friend and partner in crime, Janet has designed the cutest coffee themed kit!

Template from Masterful Scrapbooking Design class:  Single & Pretty (and if you don’t know MSD, get over there pronto!  worth every penny and loads of great stuff!!!) .

Thanks for stopping by… More goodies in the works.

 

Memory Keeping:: Layout Share – Love, Oregon

No, I have not fallen off of the face of the earth

No, I have not fallen in a 7 foot high snow bank (although, you never know around here!)

Yes, we seemed to have survived the record-breaking snowfall here in Boston (and if I never hear the phrase “historic snowfall” again it will be too soon)

Yes, I’ve been making lots of things…lots of memory keeping, sewing, projects, a little knitting, a little cooking

No I have not been diligent about blogging about it.

So there you have it.

I am challenging myself to make a scrapbook layout a day during all 50 days of Lent (more on that in another post) so far so good!  I wanted to start sharing my layouts so here goes… I realized when I saw Janet’s kit “Aure il aug a Oregon” that I have only made one page about my trips to Oregon.  I have a separate  mini-album about my 3 retreat experiences but nothing to share in the main memory keeping albums, so let’s fix that shall we?  On my last trip to Gearhart, we did a little touring on the way back to Portland and our flight home.  I am so glad that we didn’t give in to inertia and just go straight to PDX but took the detour and went to see Multnomah Falls.  Oh my word, stunning, and beautiful and really an easy walk to the main viewing platform.   Little Feet Digital Designs kit was perfect with all the beautifully aged papers (my favorite kind) and natural elements and, hello…that journal card?  swoon!   Can’t wait to make some more pages about my west coast adventures.

Memory Keeping:: Layout Shares

Hi all!  Well, as you can imagine with the holiday craziness, there has not been a lot of memory keeping or stitching going on around here…although there has been a fair bit of knitting(!) I wanted to share one of my latest pages.  These photos are from the photo scanning project I’ve been working on.  I’m scanning hundreds of slides from our “family archives” and I have to say, I’m very impressed with the quality of the resulting images. I have been trying to work out how to handle these images and I think since they are already in digital format, I will most likely use them for digital pages rather than printing them out and scrapbooking with paper supplies, we’ll see.

Well, this may be the last trick or treat… not sure but boy do they still like collecting candy!  For this I used Little Feet Digital Designs new kit “Hocus Pocus”.  There are so many fun elements in this kit, and I completely took to the glitter.  I overlaid the glitter spider web element on top of the spiderweb paper and voila…doubly creepy!
