Christmas layouts 2

While I am at CHA in Anaheim this weekend I am sharing some more Christmas layouts of the grand kids.  These are some pre Christmas pictures of the girls around the tree.  

More  pics of Kenzie and Micah 

Katie and Brittany all dressed up.  The picture on the right is the girls with Santa.  The first pic is last year and then this year.  Same Santa but much happier girls this year.  The trees are felt cut outs I got at Michaels last year in the dollar bin.

Christmas layouts and off to CHA

So excited that I will be attending the CHA  Craft and Hobby Association Conference in Anaheim this weekend.  This is my second CHA conference.  Last year was my first conference and I think I was a lot like a deer in the head lights last year with so much going on.  Hopefully next week I can share pictures and some of the new items I see.

For today I wanted to share some Christmas layouts I did of two of my Grandchildren Micah and Kenzie.  A friend of mine took these and I am so pleased with the way the pics came out.  

This layout is Kenzie performing at her preschool program.  

The first layout of Christmas at grammy and papas.  

SVG Cuts -There's No place like home

I am so excited to share this post today.  This is my wonderful friend Beth with the Christmas present I made her using a SVG cuts file and kitchen cabinet.  This was the most perfect project I could have made for Beth as this was an awesome Christmas for her and her family.  

Beth is the owner of Scrapbook Blessings where I teach classes and an amazing friend.   

 Leo Beth's husband was able to come home early from Kuwait just a few days before Christmas.  He has been on deployment for 8 months.  Beth, Santa and the local mall were able to pull off a big surprise for her three kids.  She asked them to get a picture with Santa to send to dad.  While posing dad was there "photo bombing" the pictures. Meanwhile family and friends had gathered to be in on the surprise.   Here is a collage of pics from the surprise.  I was so blessed to be a part of this and be there.  Beth was so thrilled with her sign which made me really happy.  

I am at the far left of the bottom center picture with other friends and family.  

Here is a picture of the cabinet painted with black chalboard spray paint and then the SVG file cut out of white vinyl.  

Here is a picture from SVG Cuts.  This is their first vinyl projects and I just love them.  Can't wait to make some more.

Fall layouts Day 2

Yesterday was the first day I shared Fall layouts of grandkids.  Here is some more I did  trying to make a dent on my huge stack of photos awaiting me.  Today I am back to babysitting two of my grandkids full time so my scrapbook time will be limited again.  However I will have more layouts in the next few days to share that I did the pat few weeks.

Fall layouts Day 1

I have been busy trying to get some layouts done of my grandchildren the past two weeks while I am not babysitting.  It is really hard to find much time to do my personal scrapbooking between caring for two of my grandkids everyday, teaching at the scrapbook store and doing samples for the store.  So I tried to get some layouts done.  Here is the first set of Fall layouts.  

This is Katie and Brittany dressed for Halloween

More layouts tomorrow 

Princess Mini Book

This is a princess mini book I designed for the store where I teach scrapbook classes.  The customers love Disney items so I created a "Princess"  book that could be used for Disney princess pictures or for any little girls pictures.  The album is a precut one with cut out gate front.  I painted the gate with Inka Gold on both sides.  I used a variety of princess papers and stickers.  Gems were added as well as ribbon to the side rings.

A New you mini book in a box for the new year.

I designed this book a few months ago but didn't get it posted till now.  This is a mini book in a box that I made a few months ago.  I used flowers, ribbon, mini chalkboard, and chipboard from my stash.  I designed this as  book for someone makin New Year's resolutions or needing encouragement through a trying time.   

Here is the box cover
