Layouts: Wind Turbines

Scrapping with Liz has a new set of templates available at Scrap Orchard. These are geared toward the double page layouts. I love these Double Album IV Templates!

Layouts: Calendar Templates

Scrapping with Liz teamed up with Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs to create calendar templates for 2013. The bundle includes 8.5x11 templates, 5x7 mini calendar templates, 8.5x11 calendar grids and 12x12 templates.

I decided to do a 12x12 for a couple of months of pictures that I have taken in the past during those months. After doing just 2, I knew I wanted to do a layout for each month! And, I found a nice 12x12 frame that I can display the monthly layout in during 2013.

Best of all, I've got all of them done!

Layouts: Iron Scrapper 2012 Templates

During the month of July, ScrapOrchard has a contest called "Iron Scrapper". It is 4 weeks of challenges and special weekly kits can be purchased to use in the challenges. ScrappingWithLiz provided a template each week and 3 of the 4 weeks I used the SWL template. SWL now has the Iron Scrapper templates for sale in her shop for purchase.

Here are my layouts using the templates.

Week 1: It's Bunny Time!



Week 3: Paige



Week 4: Water's Great

Layouts: "W" and "A"

I feel in love with SWL's "ABC Templates" and decided I need to do an ABC book about my hometown, Wapakoneta, Ohio.

The first layout is "W"apakoneta Waterpark using Dream Big Design's kit Splash Zone.



The next layout is "A"rmstrong Air & Space Museum using the Scrap Orchard July Mega, "Country Folk".

Layout: Havanese

ScrappingWithLiz has a new template set in her store at ScrapOrchard called "ABC Templates". I did this layout using "Oh My Dog" by mLe Card. I really love that kit!!!

Layout: P-Patches

ScrappingWithLiz has several different alphabet templates available in her store at ScrapOrchard. I used her Cut Out Alpha Templates for this layout. Kit is Oh My Dog by mLe Card.

Layout: Blown Away

Pictures are hot off the press!

Template is from Scrapping With Liz's "Zine Style Templates" available at Scrap Orchard. Used a kit from Meredith Cardall called "Adventures in Yard Work", also available at Scrap Orchard.

Layout: Bathroom Remodel

I have finally finished fixing up the bathroom. Started last July with having new tile installed and having the shower door removed. Over Memorial Day weekend, I painted it. No more orange flowers on the wall! New curtains and shower curtain finish it off.

I documented the process with pictures and scrapped them. I used an older template by Scrapping With Liz from her Double Templates II collection. Be sure to check the collection out! It is available at Scrap Orchard.

Layout: Punta Morena

Artgal Style's newest kit, "You Are", is now available at PlainDigitalWrapper. Be sure to check it out!

Layout: Cozumel Bar Hop

Scrapping With Liz has a brand new template set out this week that is so versatile and great for multi-photo scrappers. Perpetual Calendar Templates are now available at Scrap Orchard.

This is what I did with them.

Layout: Suez Canal

I am so lucky these days!

My favorite template designer has added a few members to her creative team to help her promote some of her older templates she is updating and putting into her store. She has asked me to be one of those members!

So I am now an official member of the Creative Team for Scrapping With Liz. Liz has a store at Scrap Orchard filled with template goodies. And, for my SBC+ scrapping friends, she includes .page files in her downloads.

My first official layout for her used her Double Templates.







The kit I used is by Chelle's Creations, "Anchors Aweigh" also available at Scrap Orchard.

Layout: It's A Boy Thing

Artgal Style's newest release "Boys Rule" is now available at PlainDigitalWrapper. I borrowed this picture of my cousin's precious grandsons to highlight this adorable boy kit!

I also used a template from the Fairly Simple Template package by ScrappingWithLiz. You can pick the templates up at ScrapOrchard.

Layout: Girl Friends

I took a short leave from my CT duties but am now back at it!

This layout uses Artgal Style's kit, "Girls Rule" now available at PDW.



The Ohio template is by ScrappingWithLiz available at ScrapOrchard.

Layout: Spring

What Spring Brings is a colorful kit by Artgal Style now available at PDW. Spring has arrived early in Ohio. The Bleeding Hearts are already blooming!

Layout: What Spring Brings

We've had an early spring this year with the weird weather we had this winter. The 80 degree weather in mid-March had all the early spring flowers blooming. My bleeding hearts are in full bloom right now, oh about a month early!

Artgal Style's latest kit, "What Spring Brings" is the perfect complement for this picture.

Layout: Bee 2000

Doodly Doo is the newest kit by Artgal Style available at PDW. I saw the bee in the kit and just knew what picture I had to scrap!

Layout: Mothers

The latest release by Artgal Style at PlainDigitalWrapper is "My Shabby Garden". It was a wonderful kit to use for this picture of my mom, her mom and me taken a LONG time ago!

Layouts: Centennial School

Artgal Style has released a previous kit with some new items this week at PlainDigitalWrapper. It is called "Artist in the House" and was absolutely perfect for these pictures.

Layouts: Birthday Party

Artgal Style has released a mini kit this week called "Birthday Party" available at PlainDigitalWrapper. I've been scanning old pictures and found some pictures from one of my birthday parties!

I love the final layouts!!

Layout: Heidi & Friend

Artgal Style released a kit called "A Formal Affair" last week at PlainDigitalWrapper. It is basically a black/white kit with hints of color. I found some great black and white pictures to use with it.

And, I'm proud to say that this layout was chosen for "Gallery Stand Out" at PDW this past week and was eligible for "Layout of the Week". I'm just honored to be a GSO.... never been selected before!
