I surprised myself too!!
I totally haven’t done this in a loooooong time… I made 3 pages last month but none of them were blog-worthy IMHO. I just wanted to get something done and ended up with pages of nothing.
Just 2 simple pages today… I used my 2011 Pagemaps calendar, June and November’s sketches to be exact. These are the first two pages I scrapped of my dogs, simply because I had these two pictures printed out… still waiting on that HUGE order with our Disney pictures, and hopefully it’ll be here by early next week.
So here’s Peace:
I needed the title to stand out more so I ended up outlining the letters…
And here’s Star:
I originally had different PP picked out for this layout and even started cutting the cardstock when I changed my mind… I hate when that happens… but I’m so much happier with this. I wanted stars to sit at the top corner but found that I do NOT have a star punch that’s larger than about 1/2″… so I freehand drew and cut these stars out and popped them up with foam squares.
That pretty much does it for me today… I kinda stalled out at 66 cards… only 34 more to go! Hoping to make a huge dent in that number before the picture order gets here because I tend to have a one-track mind and once I start scrapping I might not want to make any more cards!!

I love your scrap layouts. WOW!!! Those pictures are fabulous! And the papers and designs of the layout show them off to perfections. I really think it’s amazing how much it adds to outline the letters on the Peace page. Such a clever idea! And stars were a must on Star’s page. 😉 Love that you handcut them, it gives them character. Perfect job!!!
Kel..those are great…..I can never get the PP to work out as nicely as you did.
great layouts and pics,loe the handcut stars and your last of the love cards post-good luck with the Twisted Tuesday DT call
