<br />
I had so much fun creating this layout!!!!!!!!! And of all the layouts I made recently, this one is my favourite! When I saw this paper range, I immediately fell in love with it, and I knew I wanted to create a fun layout! So I printed some pictures with our little one playing with a phone. But in the end, I decided against using those pictures and rather using some of my all time favourite pictures that were taken of my and Jonathan - the colours in the pictures were a perfect match for the collection. <br />
<br />
My inspiration for the layout came from a class taught by a dear friend of my, <a href="http://jowilnanolte.blogspot.com/">Jowilna Nolte</a>, where she used a lot of small blocks. So opted for the bigger blocks, and a patchwork feel to the layout. <br />
<br />

A lot of Elle's Studio's products can be used for Project Life layouts. But today I wanted to showcase their Project Life products on a double layout. I loved the paper with the bricks on, so I used that as the main pattern paper on the layout and I cut a strip from the journal paper to include on the left hand side of the layout. There were 3 journal blocks on this sheet of paper - on the first journal block I included the date of the photos; on the second journal block I used a Kaisercraft rub-on which reads <em>"LIFE is not MEASURED by the number of breaths we take but by the number of MOMENTS that take our breath away."</em></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TCLNilN6N8M/U3mzjl_nf-I/AAAAAAAAD-U/8wGWFQ5dmX4/s1600/IMG_8117+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TCLNilN6N8M/U3mzjl_nf-I/AAAAAAAAD-U/8wGWFQ5dmX4/s1600/IMG_8117+(2).JPG" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
On the third journal block I included another quote which I got from one of the tags in the Cameroon collection which reads <em>"37% Awesome + 12% Smiles + 25% Imagination + 20% Adventure + 6% Dirt = 100% Boy"</em>. The stars at the bottom of the layout I cut from one of the tabbed tags. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3gki1_txQEc/U3mznU6g1GI/AAAAAAAAD-c/qTpnf9ThugQ/s1600/IMG_8119+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3gki1_txQEc/U3mznU6g1GI/AAAAAAAAD-c/qTpnf9ThugQ/s1600/IMG_8119+(2).JPG" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The flags and embellishments that I used on the bottom right hand corner of the layout I cut from off-cuts of paper; tabbed tags; frames; and strips from the bottom of the 12x12 papers. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-o6wqL2JD9IA/U3mzq0WZGQI/AAAAAAAAD-k/gF-E0TTizSY/s1600/IMG_8120+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-o6wqL2JD9IA/U3mzq0WZGQI/AAAAAAAAD-k/gF-E0TTizSY/s1600/IMG_8120+(2).JPG" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For the saying next to the main photo on the layout I used <span class="a-size-large" id="productTitle">Chitchat Word Stickers by Tim Holtz and <span class="irc_su" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">Simple Stories Snap Life Typeset Alphabet. The saying reads as follows: <em>"if there is a tomorrow when we are not together there is something you much always remember - even if we are apart I will always be with you."</em></span></span></div>

I had so much fun making this layout and using this sketch! Half of the reason is this awesome picture that I just LOVE of our son taken at the beach during our December holiday! This was our first day on the beach with him and he really had an awesome time! I also just love the various combinations of blue in this picture - the sky, the tent behind him and of course his swimming costume!!!!</div>

The order half of the reason I had so much fun making this layout is of course the paper! I just loved using the Beach Boardwalk from Carta Bella!!!!!!!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I did not want to include a whole lot of embellishments as I wanted to keep the picture as the focal point of the layout! I added some brads that I had in my stash, some hand stitching and some stickers from the Beach Boardwalk collection. </div>

Dig deep and pull out those collections that are 3 years or older; if you're newer to scrapbooking and don't have paper older than 3 years just use your oldest paper. We'd also love to see you use some of those older products that are possibly not so "in" at the moment e.g. rub ons, eyelets, staples, etc. Get creative, have fun, and use up some of your stash!</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #222222;">I have a layout that I created using a sketch from Let's Get Sketchy designed by Laura Whitaker.</span><br />

Here is my take on the sketch! I LOVED this picture of our little one, that was taken at his cousin's first birthday party, earlier this year. <br />

All of the paper in this layout are pieces of scrap paper that I had leftover from a Jenni Bowlin class I did. The amazing thing is, that I did this class back in 2008............</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are some close-up pictures.........</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The circle in the top left hand corner of the layout, with the photo on, I decorated with a journal card from October Afternoon, a sticker from Teresa Collins with a quote that reads: "<em>Today you are you, that's truer that true. There is no one alive who is you-er than you - by Dr Seuss"</em>. I also added a brad that I had in my stash and the black star is from my Tim Holtz plastic stickers. I finished the circle off with some hand stitching around the edge. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The circle in the bottom right hand corner, I only decorated with paper and embellishments. The journal block with the "G" on is from the Jenni Bowlin collection, along with the "GROW", which is the top portion of a bingo card. I also added another word that started with a "G", i.e. good times, which is also a Tim Holtz plastic sticker. I added another brad from my stash, hand stitching around the edge of the circle and the scallop sticker from Teresa Collins. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I loved these pictures of Jonathan, they were taken on a Saturday afternoon after we all went grocery shopping. The special thing about these pictures is that was the day be bought him his first rugby ball! A very proud moment in every dad's life if they have a son! I captured these pictures in the kitchen while he was trying to play with the ball and at the same time crawl towards me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I printed the pictures almost immediately after taking them, as I was extremely keen to make a fun layout. But I battled for days to get the right paper. Finally I found these old papers at the bottom of my paper rack. The layout came together quickly (once I had the paper), then it was time for embellishments - this took another few days. Due to the fact that the papers were so busy and I did not want to distract from the photos, I really battled to find something that worked for me. </div>

I made some flags with washi tape, which I adhered with some staples and added some buttons and bling. I also painted chipboard cogs black and added some Kaisercraft rubons. </div>

Hello ladies, today I want to share a layout with you that I made using the Simply Sweet kit from <a href="http://frosteddesigns.blogspot.com/">Frosted Designs</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My mom is a teacher and years ago when I was about three, the students from the Home Economics class needed to make dresses for little girls. Well I was one of those, they made me this lovely pink, white and blue dress and in the end we even had a mini fashion show. There were two pictures taken at the event, the picture in this layout is one of them. I have always been a very shy little girl and love to keep to myself, especially in a big crowd. As you can see in this photo, I was waiting patiently for my turn :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I saw the Dreamy collection from Heidi Swapp in the Simply Sweet kit, I just knew it was the perfect match in terms of colour for this picture. I used both sides of the Life is Beautiful paper as well as the back of the Ticket to Ride and Dreamy Dots papers for the small flags. The hearts and title I got from the Dreamy word stickers. To finish the layout off I added hand stitching at the top, as well as some brads, buttons and bling I had in my stash. I also included some stamping at the bottom of the photo. </div>

Today I want to share with you a double page a made with pictures taken at Jonathan's newborn photoshoot. He was only 6 days old in these photos. The pictures I used on this page are some of my favourites from that day. I just love the blue blanket and the white and red hats really looked stunning with the blue. <br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used the Homespun collection from Simple Stories for this page. I loved the colours in the range and just love how the papers complement the pictures. Here are some pictures of the detail. </div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For all the pockets I used papers from the Homespun collection. I included stickers and chipboard elements on the cards as embellishments. I also used some photo-overlays to add some dimension to the photos and the one card I used Tim Holtz distress stains to decorate the white cardstock. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is really an awesome range from Simple Stories and once again so versatile! </div>

Here is my take on this sketch. The picture in the layout is one of me and my father that was taken about a year ago. And of course I have printed it a while back (to use on another layout).........</div>

I must confess, I received this collection a while back, but I could not find the right pictures (nor the inspiration) to use the paper. And then finally I came across pictures we took of Jonathan at 4 months and they were PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
How beautiful is this kit?!?!?! The combination of patterns and colours make this kit very versatile... great for virtually any theme or project you are working on. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Let me tell you a little bit about the kits at Frosted Designs. <strong>Our kits are designed to allow everyone a chance to add a little mixed media to whatever project you are working on!</strong> I personally, like to try a new product that I wouldn't necessarily pick up in a store or feel like I wouldn't know how to begin to use. Each month we add one of these products to the kits to allow you the chance to play with different inks, mists, paints, etc. This month our mixed media item in the main kit is the Tattered Angels Glimmer Glase in Paradise Pink. And because we know that you might not know what to do with that product, there will be tutorials throughout the month to show you how to put that item to use!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our kits are broken down into 3 parts. We allow you to <strong>CUSTOMIZE</strong> your kit by selecting <strong>2 of the 3 options</strong> that work best for you style of creating. Everyone who orders a kit gets what is in the <strong>MAIN KIT</strong>. You then get to choose between the <strong>CLEAN FUN OPTION</strong> and the <strong>MESSY FUN OPTION</strong> to complete your kit. These are not add-ons, you get to customize at no extra cost. The <strong>CLEAN FUN OPTION</strong> is for those of you who like to scrapbook and make cards. It usually includes more paper and a few more embellishments. The <strong>MESSY FUN OPTION</strong> includes a stencil or stamp along with some other fun "messy" items! This option is great for those of you who like to do off the page projects, art journaling and other projects along those lines. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Love both options?!?!? Well you can have both for just $7.50..... (about R100 excl. postage and depending on the exchange rate).</div>

<br />
May is one of our family's busiest month. It is my birthday, my mom's birthday as well as Mother's day :-) So lots of parties and photo opportunities :-) <br />
<br />
So without further chatting and beating around the bush. I am here today to share with you a layout I made with the sketch at <a href="http://letsscrap.ning.com/">Let's Scrap</a> this week. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used a stitching template and added some hand-stitching to the left hand side of the layout. The rosettes I made using the Tim Holtz die and my cuttlebug. Finally to finish of the layout, I included some flags on the far right of the layout and some die-cuts which I cut from the papers. </div>

It is a range I bought right after Jonathan was born, but never found the right photo to use with it. So when I found this picture of him that we took at 6 weeks of him, I knew this was the right collection. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used the rosettes, stars and date die cut from the Crate collection and clustered them all together at the bottom right hand corner of the photo. I added the ruler to the cluser, as well as a felt heart and some buttons and bling. I also added a stitch to the heart. </div>

Due to the fact that the papers were so busy, I did not want to embellish a lot and therefore only include the journaling card (bottom left hand corner of the layout), calendar sticker as well as some doily stickers (top right hand corner) and then then title at the bottom of the layout, where I used a combination of fonts. </div>

So, dear Mr Tim Holtz (huge fan over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) was in South Africa during March and I was lucky enough to be able to attend his class....... One of the awesome things he bought us and that we worked with was his brand new 1" distressing ink pads, and oh my word, they are stunning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So what did I do when I got home, you guessed it, used the mini distressing ink pads!!!!!!!!!!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I covered cardstock with old book paper, and did some stencil work with Tim Holtz distress ink on it. Once this was done, I included some chipboard elements, a rub-on and some die-cuts I had lying around. </div>

For this card, I cut a piece from the Echo Park Fall collections, added some die-cuts and stitching. </div>
