Simple Things of Life/Frosted Designs Quote Blog Hop

Frosted Designs is having another blog hop.  If you haven't stopped by do so. You have until July 31st.  For this quote challenge you must create a project using part or all of the following quote:  "It is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all." Laura Ingalls Wilder. I decided not to use the whole quote just part of it. The part that caught my attention was 'simple things of life.' It fit perfectly with the picture I used on my layout.

The products I used are Brazill, Teresa Collins, American Crafts, Studio Calico and Fancy Pants. I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!

Me and Willie/Let's Get Sketchy

It's not the real Willie Robertson from Duck Dynasty. It is just a cardboard cut out we found at Wal-Mart. Of course, I put Noah beside it and got him to pose and the whole time I am thinking this is going to be great for a scrapbook layout. Does anyone else do this? I used the sketch from Let's Get Sketchy. I used Later Sk8r from Close to my Heart.  The thickers are from American Crafts. The flair buttons are from a kit I purchased a while back. Here is the sketch and my layout.

Joy/Frosted Designs

Frosted Designs challenge is to create a project celebrating 'The Great Outdoors.' I decided to use a picture from our vacation. This was taken on our boat ride in Destin, Florida. I couldn't believe I actually got this shot of the dolphin following our boat, midair and with my iphone! I used Fancy Pants Down By the Shore collection. For the title I used Little Yellow Bicycle's canvas words. I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!

Pals for Life/Scrap Our Stash

The challenge for Scrap Our Stash is to use the sketch and to use bling.  The photos I used are of my son Noah and his friend Kaleb. They had fun swimming ALL day! The supplies I used are Doodlebug, Bazzill, and Tim Holtz. I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!
