I'm back with another challenge I'm hosting on the My Scraps and More forum. Be sure to hop over this weekend and join in on the fun! You'll have a full week to complete all the challenges and there are 18 in all so plenty to get you inspired!!
I love Disney and I love the Disneybounding pins your can find on Pinterest. They're full of great outfits you can wear inspired by Disney characters. This one really stood out to me and I thought it would be fun to use to inspire a layout.
I used the Pink Paislee Atlas collection and this fabulous chevron multi colored stripe. I thought it was a great paper to represent the stripes in Bert's outfit and bow.
Here's a look at the process

This weekend I'm hosting 3 challenges on the My Scraps and More forum for our Pinspirational Crop. I'd love to have you come over and play along with us. There's going to be lots of fun and prizes!!
Here's a look at the mood board I created to inspire you and me to create a layout.
And here's the layout I created.
I used the gorgeous Life is Beautiful collection from Cocoa Vanilla Designs. I just love all the sweet soft colors and they were perfect for my photos of my surprise Birthday lunch at Via Napoli's in the Epcot World Showcase.

Hello peeps! I'm back today with another layout using the new Sangria collection. I was inspired by a layout in the new Idea Book. I framed a piece of Colonial White cardstock with Eggplant cardstock and then used my stitching guide to stitch around the edges. It's a great effect!!
3x3 squares evenly spaced makes for a striking background and with the new complements it's a quick task to add embellishments.
Today I have a great layout inspired by a sketch at Scrap much. I created it using the new Cocoa Vanilla Life is Beautiful line from My Scraps and More. It's gorgeous!! I added some watercolor to the wood veneer to add a bit of color to the layout and love how it looks. I'm going to have to remember to do it more often. The large doily behind was a great base for all the beautiful embellishments in this collection.
Sometimes layouts just don't go as planned and sometimes you try to stretch and do new things that just don't work out. That's when you start again and go back to what you know and love. I started this layout 3 times before I was happy with it. I wanted it to be something I loved as much as the photo of my son with his black eye. LOL
Come along as I share my struggles and the final outcome
Looking to do a really quick double page layout? If you're short on time but want to scrap then grab a sketch and the Sangria collection and follow along with me.
I had these photos from my hubby's high school reunion I really wanted to get scrapped so I found a fabulous sketch then pulled my Sangria paper, complements, and assortments and I had them scrapped in no time.
Using 6x6 pads is a great way to get a sampling of all the paper in a collection as well as I love the smaller prints so you can really use a lot of different patterns on a page.
Hello!! Today I have a video to share along with several artists from the Crafty Maven Getaway Youtube channel. We have a Tag Hop going on where we will be answering 13 questions about our scrappy selves so you can get to know us a little better.

6. What’s your favourite day on Crafty Maven?
7. What scrappy supply are you obsessed with (ex. Thickers)
8. What element do you just have to add to every page to consider it done (ex. Enamel dots)

10. What is that one embellishment that took you forever to use? (Maybe show how you finally used it)
