My Life is a Zoo! Lickety Split CKC goody bag


I created this layout pretty much per instructions.  I thought it was super cute.  I received one page at the Friday night crop of CKC Cincinnati and the second in the CK goody bag! So glad because I had to have both!  It was too cute and I had a lot of pictures from our trip to the Louisville Zoo.

 
I love the giraffe diecut!

Creative Memories Divine Layout

 

I used the Creative Memories Divine Power Palette.  I used a sizzix border diecut to create the music border.  The notes were cuttlebug diecuts.  I layered grey embossed CM cardstock and black CM cardstock.  The title is CM sophisticate letters in black.  I used some Divine epoxy stickers
 
 
I used the CM custom cutting system to create the black shape behind the photos.

I used CM Divine paper ribbon and more sophisticate letters.

Creative Memories Holidazzle Christmas Layout

 
 

Two page spread using Creative Memories Holidazzle Paper Pack which is no longer available.
 
Running out of letters...I used the "outline" of the letters backed with some of the Holidazzle papers.





I love that we call Briana "B", it saves a lot of a's and i's!

Creative Memories Primary Playground Layout

I chose the old Creative Memories Primary papers because the bright bold colors looked perfect with the bright bold colors of the playground equipment.

I used a tone on one sheet for page two and used some scraps to punch circles and outline them like the print of page one.

Nancy O'Dell Hummingbird Layout

This is the paper layout in my traditional album of a visit with Logan's great grandmother, Mickey.  I used the Creative Memories Nancy O'Dell Hummingbird kit and matching paper ribbons.  I layered the ribbons and went across the top of both pages.  I fussy cut the picture of her owl keyholder and popped it up with pop dots.  I chalked the paper flowers and leaves.
 
 
Before  I made it chronologically to the above layout, I created this digital one and framed it as a gift for Mickey.  The digital journaling looks so good.  I need to incorporate more into my traditional layouts.

Creative Memories Border Maker challenge with Cinderella Birthday Party

 
I challenged myself to use as many border maker cartridges as I could on this page.  I managed three.  I used the banner, scallop and twinkle.  I used the old Creative Memories Princess Kit.  I don't have a girl of my own, so I don't often get a use for princesses.  Her birthday was Cinderella so I finally have a chance to use the Princess pack.  The papers I used for the scallop and twinkle borders have magic wands and twinkles on them but are very subtle.  I made the banner out of white cardstock and cut them into pieces and chalked the edges with lavendar.

I used the "punchies" adhered with CM precision point adhesive.
 
 
 
 
 
 
The twinkle border was very princess.

Primary Christmas Layout with Creative Memories Border Maker-trees

Close up of the tree border made with the Creative Memories Border Maker system.  I layered with white behind to make the trees "pop".

I used a partial sheet of Primary red tone on tone paper to create a wavy section to mimic the design on page two.  I tucked the border along the bottom into the side border on page one.  Again, this was a very quick simple layout but not "plain" just easy.
