Creative Musings: June 2011

http://creative-castangs.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Welcome to my creative blog. I hope to post (with some regularity) some creative ideas for scrapbooks including templates, sketches, and maybe even a freebie or two as I expand my digital experience. Saturday, June 25, 2011. So Much to Do. It figures. I'm totally inspired and I have so much work to do that I likely won't be able to scrap until we are off to our vacation. We leave in roughly 36 hours. Yipes! Anyway, I did get a scrappy moment the other day so I'd like to share some layouts. A variation of...

A plain composition notebook (available at Target, Walmart, and office supply stores). They do come with college-ruled paper, wide-ruled, hand-writing/picture paper (if you are doing one for a child I’d recommend this type! Patterned paper (you may want a few different sheets).

Baby Blocks Tutorial | Me+2

https://meplus2.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/baby-blocks-tutorial

Just another WordPress.com site. I’ve been busy working on a project for my cousin’s baby shower. My mom’s side of the family is uber-creative and they are always game for a little arts and crafts. On Sunday I am co-hosting a shower and decided we needed something a little, well, different for her shower as there will be ladies from age 7 to 77. For the craft, I whipped up some alphabet blocks that will be decorated by guests at the party. Here are the directions:. Acrylic paint with a foam brush. First,...

Here is the sketch for some inspiration. And here are a few projects I made using the sketch. Http:/ www.lovejoypaper.com. Http:/...

Just another WordPress.com site. Archive April, 2011. In 2008 I took Stacy Julian’s Library of Memories class at (then) Big Picture Scrapbooking. Each year, I was lucky enough to return to take it for free as an alumni. That privilege was only for 3 years. Luckily for me, Stacy has revamped the LOM approach and created a new class at Big Picture Classes called “ Finding Photo Freedom. I got the chance to meet Stacy at a scrapbooking weekend a few years ago and she was so inspiring! I hope you have enjoye...

The Scrap Drawer: May 2012

http://scrapdrawer.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

May 31, 2012. It Down To The Wire. It makes me laugh to post this layout now. I did this layout awhile ago and I just read my journaling again. Man was I naive. Optimistic but naive. Rollout day and I did managed to rollout as planned but it was only after putting over 160 hrs of overtime! Sometime I laugh at my rosey outlook, as I always have it, because I always seem to get burned by it. I guess that is why favorite saying is ". If at first you don't succeed, don't be surprised. May 30, 2012. Between w...

Positively Passionate About...: February 2012

http://positivelypassionateabout.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Sunday, February 26, 2012. Look how tall he was at 8 months! Keep in mind that my husband is 6'4". This is my take on a the most recent Creating Keepsakes sketch posted on their submissions page. The photos are a little faded but they went well with the Paradise collection by Little Yellow bicycle. Used a skewer as the post for the banner and some of those adorable tiny clothespins. Martha Stewart border punch. Love the bright pink! The punched pink circles really make the letters stand out. I just reali...
