Caroline's First July 4th

I'll take another pic tomorrow so ignore the fuzziness. I just knew I could get a July 4th layout out of this Commit2Paper kit! Just added some bling and stickles for the "fireworks" and sparkly bottom strip. Kit comes with some great cb pieces which I left out of the kit photo, oops. Took the rectangle, inked it up and using Dooblebug mini rubons put her name. Simple but I rather like it!

New layout with Feb C2P

This was FUN!!!

The "K" is grungeboard run thru the cuttlebug script pattern, then inked with brown and copper. Metal alpha brads for the "ris" for Kris' name.

I will have to rephotograph this tomorrow in the daylight so you can see the metal strips spell out "and her gentlemen". I printed that out on paper, flipped it and the metal over to emboss it into the metal strips. Cut those from some sheets Vivian sent me ages ago. Smeared a little timber brown Stazon over it, attach with brads. I'll let Kris put the boys name in the journal bottom left, cause I can't tell the twins apart!!!

Sorry for the pic but couldn't wait to post this.

AND most importantly, this is my take on Barbara Faulk's sketch which is this month's challenge so get busy and let us see your take on this sketch. A prize is in store!!!

This is the redo of the photo. Much better, you can actually read the metal strips now.

Just love all those little bare tootsies!!!

Commit2Paper Feb09 Kit!!!

This is completely different than anything we had before. Look closely at the six sheets along the top, they have shaped edges! That is front and back views, these are Prima papers. Love these, you can do Valentine's, a masculine Valentine (how many times do you get to do that) or vintagy layouts. I can see school layouts and with the red white and blue cardstock I can see some Fourth of July, Memorial Day!

Lots of ideas for these, infact I am working on a layout of my niece and her boys and I'm having to do TWO of it cause she is coming to visit tomorrow and I know one will leave with her! Plus I have a 12x12 frame to put it in. Back later with a pic of that. Meanwhile, drool at this:

ATC Fun



Ohhhh hope the girls in the swap don't see these!! LOL, yeah right.

I used FOUR different stickles, two mica paints, one regular glitter (seems so old school after stickles) and three Post Inksentials. Oh and the black lines are ep.

These were FUN!!!! Thinking of covering delicate areas with glossy accents for protection.

On with the show....

Now that it's over, maybe we can get back to business. Shut all the Bush Bashers up, what will they complain about now? Oh that's right! Biddy Pelosi wants to convict him! Sure, as long as we round up everyone who voted with him.

Oh and round up all the ones responsible for the sub prime fall out and try them too.

Oh wait, that would be the same ones who want to try Bush!!!!!

Funny how things comes round and round.

Let it be, get on with it and SHUT the F up!!!
