Layouts from our November Meeting!!!

I am so excited to finally show the world all the amazing layouts created by our group!!! Our meeting in November was amazing.....we ate frosted sugar cookies in the shape of leaves, April provided a totally fun make & take, and we shared our creative ideas and projects.....here they are:

*April*

April always uses the cutest photos of her kids.....and likes lots of color.....her layouts always look like lots of FUN!!!

*Bonnie*
I love how Bonnie used an opaque white pen to make all the doodles on this page.....just adds so much, don't you think?


*Melanie*
Melanie always finds the most creative ways to use the elements in our kits.....the ribbon, paper mache, and embroidery thread look amazing together......and I love that she used the background paper as the base for her layout instead of cutting out all the little monsters!!!


*Jane*
Jane always finds a way to make her pages more mixed media than just paper.....she painted on canvas, and painted on the photo, for her first layout. For the second, she used a piece of fabric for the background.....doesn't is just add really great depth and texture!!!



*Carrie*
These layouts have woodgrain paper for their backgrounds.....it is not a wood table, I promise. They are simple, but have a couple cool elements.....I added some sewing to the plaid paper with white thread for texture, and splattered some navy blue ink just to mix it up ;)




Hope you feel inspired.....have fun creating!!!

Layout Exchange

September Layouts

A layout for ME!

At our last meeting, Carrie made me this wonderful layout...
I sent her a picture of my sister and I that I love. She and I, during one of her summer visits, we went to Point Loma to see the waves wash against the cliffs.
As always, Carrie made me this AMAZING layout! It's simple, yet beautifully detailed. She layered all these ribbons and lace.
Thank you Carrie, I love it!

A Layout for Jane...

This is Carrie, and I am so happy that our group finally has a blog! Currently we are in the midst of a layout swap....so, this sweet girlie, Jane, emailed me some adorable pics of her daughter's dog, Django....here is the layout I made for her:







It was totally fun to do the paint splattering, and was impressed that my sewing machine went through the Fancy Pants Acrylic Page I took from one of their mini books! The background paper is also Fancy Pants, and the text is Prima. Thanks for looking :)
