More scrapbooking today!
I took the "official" (ha!) pictures, so I have them, which is the best part, haha! This was the last dance from my daughter's time in high school, so I included all the candid selfies (friends!) she got while on the date too.

A Valentines Page
Today I have a scrapbook page for you.
This one used up some "mistakes" I made back in January for THIS card. I even state in the post that I tried three times, haha! I kept those mistakes and then die cut a bunch of hearts out for my page today.

Happy Daisies!
Today I have two cards that are almost identical, other than color combinations. And that the top daisy is different.... In both cases I used Blending Brushes to add the third color to the background of the card.
Altho I'm too late, I still used this sketch from Just Add Ink, and then this card uses the color challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments:
Ink: Petal Pink, Pretty Peacock, Garden Green
Ink: Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly, Balmy Blue

Something x6
First I made this fun kid card using the color combo from The Paper Players. Well, almost... I swapped out Lost Lagoon for Bermuda Bay because my display board was wiped completely clean with the new catalog, and this card is going on the board- so that's how I kept it all 'current'.
Stamps: Simply Said
Ink: Copper Clay, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wheat
Paper: Cajun Craze & Very Vanilla card stocks
Accessories: Layers of Beauty dies, Stampin Sponges (retired), big shot (retired)

Butterfly Birthday
I told you I needed birthday cards right now, haha, because here's another one for the SUO Challenge! This time I used the great sketch from Inspire.Create.Challenges and dug into the WABAC for a whole lotta retired supplies. One ink and the card stock is all that's current. But I needed some soft blues and a pretty butterfly, and this worked great.
Paper: Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Every Day Enchantment DP (retired)

Bonus Flowers, round 3
Here is the final (for now anyway) of these flowered cards. This is actually what I envisioned as soon as I saw the big daisies. I used the Blending Brushes for the colored strip and then just stamped it right on top! Quick, easy, and pretty!
And because I like how it turned out, I'm going to put it in with the current SUO Challenge to make birthday cards!
Supplies:
Stamps: March 2024 Paper Pumpkin extra stamps, Beside Me
Ink: Boho Blue, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow
Paper: Misty Moonlight & Basic White card stocks
Accessories: Tinsel Gems 3-Pack, Blending Brushes

Bonus Flowers, round 1
March is Paper Pumpkin's anniversary month, so to celebrate, I think they have sent out a bonus stamp set, in addition to a monthly subscription, every single year! I really liked the flowers included this round and I really wanted to play with them, once I finally got some crafting time. That means I have a few posts with the same happy flowers coming up!
This first one uses the latest from Freshly Made Sketches, as well as the latest from Color Throwdown. It also works great for the SUO Challenges, and I am in need of some birthday cards!
I had originally made it a single layer card, but decided it really needed more than that, so I trimmed it down and placed it on a Melon Mambo card base.

4th of July!
I love doing this because how else can I fit this many photos on a single layout?? That, and I only had to design it once, print it four times and now everyone has our 4th of July! I added a typed up square of journaling to the bottom right corner.

Dance Recital!
Today I'm going to share a scrapbook layout that is an interesting kind of hybrid project. Since this was for dance, I knew I wanted a glimmery kind of purple for the background, but I didn't have anything that was right. I knew I had "Glimmer Paper" in MDS... so I changed the Gold Glimmer paper to Elegant Eggplant and then I just printed those two sheets, hahaha!! Then I glued the photos and the circles down and I always tape the ribbon. So the layout was made traditionally, on Digital paper I digitally altered, ha!
Paper: Basic Black card stock, Gold Glimmer paper recolored to Elegant Eggplant in MDS (retired!)
