Brush, Brush!!

I'm slowly, but surely, working my way through last years pictures, trying to get caught up in my layouts for 2011 {I said TRYING, LOL!}. 
I think if I can stay only one year behind that's pretty good, no? :)

Here is single page layout I did for my daughter's first visit to the dentist.  

I added a little bit of Stickles to the toothpaste, isn't it cute?! 

I haven't decided if I'll color the tooth's tongue.  Do they have red tongues too? :)

I left this page pretty simple because the background paper seemed to get busy after I started messing with it.  Sometimes simple is best.  It's also the first time I used my Peachy Keen Stamps.  LOVE them!  

Thanks for stoppin'!  See you tomorrow :)

DCWV Stack-a-holic Challenge

I'm so excited to be participating in my first DCWV Stack-aholic Challenge!  You can find all the details HERE.

I love this sketch!  It was really fun to re-create. 

Here is my submission:

I added some dimension to all of my flowers.  It looks so cute!  I will journal on this page, as outlined in the sketch but I like to keep that as a special private message for my family. :)

Thanks for stopping!

Christmas 2011

I know most people are putting away their Christmas craft supplies this time of year but I wanted to get my '2011 Christmas' layout done before I wrap it up for this holiday season.  We have a family Christmas album that holds just our Christmas memories so I like to scrap that year while it's still fresh in my mind.  Plus, I'm never behind for that album! :)

Here's my layout for 2011.  Sometimes I do a double and a single layout because we take SO many pictures at Christmas. But, this year I was able to really get a good group of highlight shots so a double layout worked!

Sorry about the lighting, for some reason this picture has a yellow-tint?

Here is a little closer look at each page.  I LOVE the bright colors!  The patterned paper is pretty busy so I tried to keep the page simple, but cute.

The ribbon on each photo mat is a felt-type ribbon that I found in the Christmas Clearance section for $0.59!  Love those bargains!

I also added a touch of sparkle using either Martha Stewart Glitter Glue (for the present) or DCWV Glitter paper (the white trim on the Santa hats and the ornament).

Please let me know if you'd like to know what materials I've used.  I never know if I should post them :).

Tomorrow I'll be back with a banner that any 'cheese-head' is sure to love :)
Thanks for stopping!
