Neon Man Card - Scrap the Boys

Hey friends!

Today I'm bringing you a card I did using the mood board at Scrap the Boys. My son also wanted to create a card using the mood board! He kept gasping and giggling as he was creating it, enjoying how it was coming out. It was adorable!

We didn't have exactly the right colors for the mood board in paper, so we inked ups some white cardstock, and it worked perfectly!

We were definitely inspired by the leaves and the bright blues and green. The tropical feel was great too.

Heath loved creating the die cuts with my Big Shot.

I'm putting sequins on a card, I don't care who ya are.

I think I will definnitely be using this color pallette again for a scrapbook page - I love it!

A Nature pocket page

Sorry I haven't posted in a week - doesn't mean I haven't crafted!

The Design Team season is upon us, and I'm very carefully and strategically ensuring I am creating for or curating the best possible resume for each team to which I'm applying and juggling their due dates!

Today's page I created for the current Feed Your Craft DT call. I used flair & stamps with existing pocket pages, and created a few of my own.

I really love how the colors turned out, considering I used items from 3 or 4 different collections/companies!

This page documents a walk I took in January when I was off work for MLK day. I had to use this funny quote I saw the other day because it is so true - we basically had no winter at all.

I really love this little triangle, or as I like to think of it - Mountain, card! Unfortunately I don't know if I got it at the Studio Calico sale or if it is Hip Kit Club. I'm thinking the latter.

I used flair from My Mind's Eye - I'm loving that muted red/maroon color lately. I hope this coffee photo is highlight, and I think the eye is drawn there first, as it's my favorite.

This was a super fun page to create mixing all these colors together & keeping it light and bright to accent the crazy colorful winter we're having.

Keep your fingers crossed for me that it may be good enough for the FYC DT!

Thanks for looking!

Work it - some March 2016 Pocket Pages

I really worked towards my 2017 scrappy goal this weekend & completed a few pocket pages (my nemesis). I actually enjoyed it too. I guess I just need to complain enough about them, and inspiration will strike!

I am working my way through March of last year. (I also just decided I am going to print the whole year to display in pockets in my album, and scrap as I can, because who knows when I will actually be able to finish scrapping the entire year? It's already January 2017! But I'"m trying to take less photos this year, so we won't run into this problem again!)

I used some stamps and embossing on this 3x4 card. Easter is definitely a time you can get away with using pink on pages of boys!

Some more stamp embossing here too - I got a lot of random Easter stamps in the big box of stamps I acquired back in the fall.

The little frame from an old Studio Calico kit said 24/7 so I had to cover that up because it didn't make much sense to me!

All the random little phone photos of my Lachlan look great in B&W, so here we are.

I had a mini photo shoot with my boys on St. Patrick's day & you know I gotta scrap all the cutesy little photos.

This was a companion pocket page to a full layout I shared a while back here.

My Nana passed later that day, so I did a page with the last words she said to me. It was perfect for these photos I took that day.

I was happy about the amount of pages I completed this weekend! I'm in a scrappy groove & I'm ready to keep it going!

Thanks for looking!
