November Stick it Down Single Page Challenge: Hey Crafty Girl

 This month I used the paper line Hey Crafty Girl from Simple Stories and a photo of me in my beloved craft area. I used the sketch to inspire me to create 5 clusters using the papers and embellishments, along with a few punches for the win. It was a fun layout and really did a great job describing me.

 

 

October Stick it Down Single Page Challenge: Momma Love

 Last year mom visited us and I was crafting away so I thought she could use a break from her knitting to paint some wooden tags for me. I think she rather enjoyed herself <3

Paper line and embellishments used were Simple Stories Vintage Weathered Garden Collection. A star stencil from my stash and some distress oxides inks. Of course a little stitching found its way in.

 

 

 

Autumn Splendor Projects: Simple Stories

I love Fall. The color pallet,  the sunny yet slightly cooler temperatures and the beautiful paper that is created! 

Simple Stories for the win with Autumn Splendor paper collection. 

Used every last bit!

First up a single page layout featuring our family. With almost 3 years since being together my only birthday wish was to have new family photos. 👪 

Next up is a very adorable mini album. It measures 31/4 x 6.5 and will hold around 35 3x4 photos! To much to photograph so I'll record a short video soon. Watch for that! VIDEO HERE 

Last but not least some cards with matching envelopes. I started using the left over paper to make matching envelopes because why not have beautiful mail!! Have several already spoken for those upcoming September celebrations but there will be several left over which can be purchased at Grannys Antiques and gifts in Antigonish

June Stick it Down Single Page Challenge: Flock of Geese

 

This lay-out I found very challenging! And I do like a challenge!! Doing the geometric shapes was difficult for me. It's the one shape I do not have in my stash of dies so free styled it all the way!

 We live in rural Nova Scotia and although I am 100% basis, it is the most glorious country in all of Canada! Often we see wild life on a regular base and you can't get more Canadian in Canada Geese :) 

This ma and pa goose, decided to use a swampy area near our home to lay their eggs, hatch them and raise all three of their beautiful babies. They came in April and stayed until the fall. We got to see these wee ones develop and grow as the days went by. Photo's are not great quality as Papa Goose's spot was always at the back of the lone where he would quickly warn you not to get close.

Paper line from Simple Stories Vintage Great Escape made the perfect back drop. Embellishments from same line, as well as a little stitching.
