Sharing another layout today. This one of my children. They are so silly and happy-go-lucky. I love that about them. I thought it was a fitting title for this layout. Forever Young by Bob Dylan. Every time I hear this song I think of them. They are growing up to be amazing people.

Here are a few close up of all the little details.

Thanks for stopping by I hope you create a project using a song title or lyric. If you do please lpost your project here in the comments I would love to see it.

Today is the 3rd day my kids are at Meg-Con. So in honor of this comic book, sifi, cartoons convention I am sharing a layout I created of my eldest daughter Kaitlyn. Si you can see she loves Doctor Who.

I handstitched the heart. Yes, the doctor has two.

Weeping Angel. Don't BLINK!

I got this as a digital and use it and my own papers to finish it up. Thanks for looking.

So in honor of Mega-Con being this weekend here in Florida. I wanted to share this layout of my daughter Kaitlyn and family friend Comic Book Artist Mike Wagganer - creator of Deep Space Tragedy.  They are always silly when they get together. Love them both.

Lots of layers and bits for this one. Fun glittery Thickers in a bold color. Sub-title in Simple Stories Snap letter stickers. Some washi tape in superhero actin words.  Little  touches of enamel dots & wood veneers Older paper line. Hey - got to use it up right!. 😄💟

I created this layout of our sweet boy Rukkus. He was about 9 weeks old in this picture. My hubby Fran adopted him from the animal shelter. We all fell in love with Rukkus, He made it real easy to fall in love with him. He was such a lovable Pitt bull. 

Ok, so now let me tell you about the layout. I did some roller stamping & splatter, stamped some words and rub-ons for  my background.Then cut staggering lengths & widths of pattern paper and layered them. I even used my broader  punch on one. I used some washi tape (checkerboard & Hearts). Added some enamel dots, wood veneers and cork embellishments. The banner is a Heidi Swapp color-able paper. I used Thickers and a pre-made topper for the title.

Thanks for stopping by my blog if you have any questions or comments please feel free to add it to the comment section.

Sharing a shaker card I created using Stampin' Up stamp set Bunch of Blossoms. As well as a Scraptastic Stamp Set.

I started by stamping and embossing the blossoms with white embossing powder. Then I colored with with Tim Holtz Distress Markers. The little jar I stamped on a transparency with Staz-on Gold ink. 

I cut the flowers and jar. Layered then and created my shaker card. I add a bit of Zig Wink of Stella on the flowers. I stamped the sentiment and embossed it with gold embossing powder. I also add some itty bitty star sequins on the side of the jar just above the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by. If you create a shaker card please link me to your project.

Today, I am sharing a mermaid card. It seems that everywhere you look these day you can find a mermaid. I thought they where hard to find - you needed to be at sea for many days. lol

So, here is a little about my mermaid. I used a Recollections stamp by Michaels. I colored her with Copic Markers, I then added highlights with a  white Gelly Roll pen. Then I added some twinkle with a Zig Wink of Stella pen in Clear Glitter. For the background I use Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads  and the stencil that cam with the stamp set.

I then stamped the fish, star fish, sand dollars, coral and seashell with various distress inks and Stampin' Up ink. I use Stampin' Up Dapper Denim ink for the sentiment and tiny bubbles.

Finished it off with some Zig Wink of Stella and tiny star sequins.

Thanks for stopping by. If you create a mermaid project of your won leave me a link I would love to see it.
