SOS# 10

I did a few more pages this weekend inspired by the Scrap Our Stash birthday challenges. This one is for SOS#10 -balloons.

I used Simple Stories Cheese papers and stickers to whip up this LO of Main Street DisneyLand.

SOS # 6

Whoops I got wayyy behind on these challenges. I went to the scrap book expo in Anaheim last week. I did a lot of pages but none for the challenges. Then I came home and have been a card-making fool!

This LO incorporates some of my Expo purchases and SOS# 6 which was use to use mist on a LO. Honestly-I am not a huge fan of mist. I have about 5 of them- they tend to clump up and jam the nozzle- then I end up just sprinkling it out by hand!
I used some brown Tattered angels on the background page and gold on the big flower.
I used some of my new Heartfelt Creations for the paper and the flower elements.
I also used a Spellbinders die set for the accent pieces, SU! leaf sizzlet, and Martha Stewart butterfly and fern punch.

Heartfelt Creations

I succombed and finally took a Heartfelt Creations class at the Expo last week. I have always been entranced by their pretty pretty cards and boy did I fall in love with them even more after the class!
 I was lucky enough to win a posy patch stamp set in class. I got the coordinating set of dies and paper pack and have been merrily making flowers ever since.
I see a lot of creative options ahead of me utilizing my Cricut Lacy Labels and Damask dies with these pretty posies.

SOS 5

The fifth challenge @ Scrap our Stash was to incorporate a banner  onto our lay out.

I immediately thought of this Recollections re-branded stack of Dear Lizzy Neopolitan collection. It had the papers, stickers, and a threaded punch out banner to use!

I just added a Petaloo floral and some chipboard letters that I painted silver.

The fourth challenge at Scrap Our Stash was to use a bow on a lay out.

For this one I really foraged in my stash and found a couple of old DCWV stacks that had to be at least 3 years old!

The pix aren't quite as old- just from Easter last year.

SOS 3

The third challenge from Scrap our Stash was to scrap something with sparkle.

Look at the date on this LO- yes they are pix from 3 YEARS ago!!!
I cannot tell you how good it felt to finally get them scrapped and put away in an album.
The papers and embelluies were all cut from a DCWV Christmas paper stack that I got for cheap cheap cheaps after Christmas at Joanns this year.
The "20" and "10" I cut from the advent page sheet to use as my title of the year.
The red glitter tape I bought last month at Michaels in the after Valentine's Day 80% off bin.

SOS 2

oops I got a little bit behind but never fear I will catch up!
Here is the second challenge from Scrap our Stash- this one was to use a doily on a lay out. I love it- because I love doilies!

I had gotten this great paper set for only $8 at Tuesday Morning . It is by We R Memory Keepers and included the patterned paper, solid card stock, stickers, die cuts and a cropper hopper to keep it all in.

I wasn't too sure about this LO as it doesn't have a title and contemplated putting one vertically down the center but then I felt that would be too crowded so I left it out.
