Weekly Chronicles - the Lost Weeks - 11 and 12

Oooops, just discovered I failed to upload my Weekly Chronicles for Weeks 11 and 12. Layout templates are from Becky Higgins Project Life digi templates from Jessica Sprague and placed on digi papers from Club Scrap. Journaling cards are both snagged from freebie sites on the internet. Thanks to those generous scrappers. Thanks to you for looking.

Week 13 - Weekly Chronicles

Whew! Another week under our belts. We didn't really do any spring cleaning per se but since January 1, we have had a Wednesday ritual of working on purging our overstuffed four drawer file cabinet. We review paperwork for about an hour and then DH spends another bit of time SHREDDING it all. So that photo is depicted on my page. Also, though it is hardly a Yearly ritual, on Saturday this week, DH decided I should learn to check my own fluid levels so that is the POTD for that day. Layout created with Becky Higgins Project Life digi templates from Jessica Sprague and placed on digi papers from Club Scrap Sprinkles kit. Thanks for looking.

Happy Birthday to my April Fool

A version of a stairstep card created for my birthday girl for her 24th birthday. Card base is on Club Scrap's Blackberry from Written Word. Panels are blue from Solstice. Main image is a cut and print from Echo Park through Silhouette. Other stamped images include a balloon from the Dollar bin at Michaels and images from Club Scrap's kits Time & Space and Weather. Sentiments computer generated. The focal point was printed five times and glued together to make a pop up feature. Happy Birthday, Sweetie!

Murphys

Just noticed I haven't posted anything since St. Paddy's Day. Doesn't mean I haven't been doing anything but, wow, with the final weeks of PSL, it was all I could do to get things completed and uploaded to Club Scrap. Anyway, this layout was created for a challenge over at PaperArtistsOnline for a layout using three shades of green. This one uses all Club Scrap materials from the Celtic kit (which is actually Asian Artisan and Evergreen) with some mats from Dream in Color. The borders are punched with the Martha Stewart Garden Gate punch. The shamrock doily is from Michael's (courtesy of my little Sis) and the journal tag is from a Smash pad. Covers a day trip up to the gold rush town of Murphys which celebrates all things Irish. Used another one of the Double Take sketches from my Big Picture Class.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

I realize my greeting is a little late today but better late than never. Card made with all Club Scrap supplies with the exception of stamps from Stampin' Up. Hope you had a lucky day!

PSL Continues

This week for PSL, our projects must include Club Scrap stickers from their kits. I struggle with this one every time as I'm not a huge fan of stickers. However, I did find a couple of layouts which could accomodate the challenge so I post them here for your viewing pleasure. All supplies are Club Scrap.

This first one illustrates photos taken of a freshly groomed Denni in May of 2005. Stickers on both sides are from Collections, as is the tag. The blue base is from Framed. Blue mats from Concrete Jungle. Orange chevrons from Tilescapes cut with punch and outlined with black pen. Base page sprayed with Vivid Yellow Memories Mist for texture. DOES ANYONE OUT THERE have as much trouble with those mists as I do? Oh, I'd like to throw them all in the trash except I love the colors so much. They are a lesson in frustration. I had to switch tops for another color to get this one to work.

This second layout covers more photos to my visit to my brother's beautiful home. The stickers on both sides are from Pure & Simple. Layout on Lotus Pond base with purple from Sonoma and green strips from Painted Desert embossed with Tim Holtz folder and inked with Forest Moss Distress Ink. All other edges inked with Seedless Preserve Distress Ink. Stickles on lilies though the photo doesn't really reveal it. Twine from stash and handwritten journal strips on right. The Sketch from Big Picture Double Take class.
