Scrapping my Heritage!

When I received my kit from Memorable Seasons this past month I received the beautiful papers from Cosmo Cricket Tea for Two.  When I saw the yellow paper with the rosebuds I instantly thought of a dress my mom once wore for a prom and then I saw some pictures of my mom as a little girl with my grandparents dressed for church.  I don't usually scrap older pictures - I have enough pictures to keep me forever in the day to day, but I'm glad I did!

Materials Used:  Cosmo Cricket, Prima, Maya Rd, Mustard Moon, burlap, muslin

The journaling reads:  We might not dress up with hats and flower for church anymore, but I am so thankful for the instillng of the desire to give our best to God.  To always set apart a special day to seek after the Lord and to give our lives to the call God has placed on each of us.

Materials Used:  Cosmo Cricket, My Minds Eye, Donna Downey, Martha Stewart, October Afternoon, Prima

I actually worked on both of these layouts at the same time because I was trying to "steal" a piece of the yellow flower paper for this layout also.  Somehow, the two ended up having the same design and so I thought I'd share a sketch with you.

Thanks for stopping by!

Creating...

from the heart.  I love when I just see a picture and paper and know that they have to go together!  That is what happened with this one.  I had my Feb Burlap & Buttercups kit sitting out and loved the chevron paper and the pinkish paper and then I was flipping through my pictures and saw this and then it became this!

Materials Used:  Crate Paper, October Afternoon, Tattered Angels, The Twinery

I just received my DT kit from Memorable Seasons that included some Cosmo Cricket, again flipping through my pictures that still needed to be scrapped and I hit some pictures from my little boys baby dedication that just screamed for some blue, yellow and wood...

Materials Used:  Martha Stewart, Cosmo Cricket, Jillibean Soup, Jenni Bowlin, October Afternoon, Crate Paper, gesso

And then I set them both up to admire and realized that they were the same design!  So I created this sketch to share with you because obviously it is working for me right now!  LOL

Here is the sketch I created:

If you happen to create something using my sketch please stop by and let me know I'd love to see it!
