Fall Foliage with IRS!

Heyyyyy y'all!

I'm bringing you some fall inspiration over on the Ink Road blog today.

I created these pages to finish up my 2016 October Daily & they were SO FUN!


You can check out all the details on how I created my wreath and custom OD day tags on the Ink Road Stamps blog.


All of the IRS stamps are so versatile. They work great on traditional scrapbook pages and pocket pages.


I hope this is getting you in the mood for some fall scrapping! Go check out more on the blog at the Ink Road!

All the feels with IRS stamps!

Happy Fri-yay, buds!

I'm over on the Ink Road blog with some amazing fellow Design Team members today for our Feature Friday. We are highlighting different ways to use the Compliments - Volume 1 stamp set. I created a scrapbook page.


Go check out my teammates' projects and see how versatile this stamp set is!

I also used the new Full Circle set from IRS for my background. I knew I wanted a subtle background, so I opted to DIY with a tone on tone look using two stamps from Full Circle, and O from the Open Alpha set and a small circles from Full Circle.


I used papers from Authentique's Darling Boy collection for the rest of the page.


 I stamped my sentiments and embossed in orange atop a smokey gray (I mean, yeh, GBO). I really am loving brights on dark backgrounds lately!


I used tiny foam dots to pop up my coordinating sequins. I also used some orange wool twine to add interest at the top of the page.


Those little perfect baby expressions are literally giving me all the feels. It's too much. These are some of Heath's 9 month photos and he is about to be 5?! Sigh. A baby no more. I can't handle it!


I had so much fun creating this boyish page for The Ink Road. Go get ya some stamps!

Home Wrecker - a Stuck?! sketch

Heyyyy!

I'm bringing a page today that I created with this month's Stuck?! sketch while I was at the Scrap Gals retreat last weekend!


Here's the original sketch:


Here's some details:


I altered this little tag because it was in the shape of home plate! That victory face is too much!



I love getting title ideas from Pinterest. My favorite way to find them is to search for "toddler tshirts"! I know that's strange, but I've found the best ideas from the snarky kids tshirts ideas there.


Used some washi and a sticker to bring the red to the top and tie it throughout the page.

PS - the Retreat was a BLAST! I got 7 or 8 layouts done & made some great scrappy friends!

Thanks for looking!

More Than Tacos - that's a lot!

Hey Friends!

I'm up on the Ink Road blog sharing a fun scrapbook layout today from our Mexico trip this summer.


I created green banners to bring the green out of the triangle paper, and stamped on pink, yellow and white strips to bring the colors down the black and white page.


I had this super fun series of jumping photos of my boy in front of a pyramid at the Chacchoben ruins in Mexico, and it was too hard to pick just one!


What better way to use the llama and cactus paper trends than with a Mexican travel themed page?!


Fun fun! Check out more details on the Ink Road blog & leave some love!
