Valentine's Day Remembered

What a blessing it is to celebrate Valentine's Day with my Sweet Heart. Each year it's different for me and I don't take for granted what I have shared.

So here's created a layout using SEI papers and embellishments.

The picture above does not do it justice. The paper has gold foil hearts and the hearts are made of velum. I also used on the top right CTMH heart puffies.

I just love this darling page. There is plenty of room for pictures and journaling. It kind of reminds me that nothing can contain my love for you.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy 40th Birthday!

So I turned the Big 40 last month and can honestly say I had a blast. I even took sometime to do my favorite thing, Scrapbooking!!!  I went to Splitcoast Stampers and looked for a fun challenge and came across this sketch.

I used this sketch and adopted it to later fill with my 40th birthday pictures.

 As you can see below I modified the sketch by changing the top left photo mat.

Below the top right photo mat is larger and I only included two photo mats on the right. This would allow me to place regular 4"x 5" photos without cropping.

The papers that I used were from my old stash purchased as a Hot Buy and is made by American Crafts (2012). I just love when I rediscover what I have already purchased. The papers are so lovely and vibrant. For embellishment I used Me & My Big Ideas Mambi Birthday Stickers.  All papers and embellishments can be found at Michael's Arts & Craft Store.

Thanks for checking out this blog out. Can't wait to show you next week my Valentine's layout.

Happy Crafting!
