"Yummy!" scrapbook layout


These are some pictures that I have been wanting to scrapbook for some time now. I know food is not your normal topic for a layout, but they are the recipes and memories that I cherish and that is not what I wanted to be lost. So you may want to snap some pictures of your family favorites!

Here is my new album cover I made from the American Crafts album.

Young Women Book Holders

 

I have been working on some personal progress book holders for my young women group (the beehives) and have finally finished them. I found a great tutorial from Ameroonie Designs here: http://www.amerooniedesigns.blogspot.com/2012/04/personal-progress-packet-tutorial.html





 I opted to finish these packets with a flower on the front and had lots of fun watching all the different tutorials on creating fabric flowers. I made 17 of these packets, enough for each of the beehives and all the new beehives that will enter this year. The packet can hold a Personal Progress, True to the Faith and For the Strength of Youth book, and even a pen or pencil. I just love it.

 




I think these would be fun (in a little boy theme) for my little guys to have at church to hold some fun things to have at church too, but that will have to come another day. :)

4th of July Felt Wreath

This is a popular 4th of July wreath I made last year from this blog's tutorial here.

The tutorial is super easy with amazing results. Here is my finished wreath.

 In her tutorial, she used labels to the stars. I just used some scrap white paper and glued them together.

 I have a decorative glass window in my front door and needed a way to cover the back of my wreath so the green foam would not show through. I started to pin the back as the front, but my wreath would not fit in the wreath holder with that much material so instead I laid my squares flat with the wreath and pinned in place. It was much quicker to do it this way and I think it turned out nicely.

"So Adorable" layout

Okay, last post for today. You ever have those pictures that are so cute that you put off scrapbooking them because your afraid of ruining it? No....well, I do. I finally decided to get these photos done and am glad I did. I cut the title from my cricut and also some circles that I cut for the banner. The banner really was the painstaking part, but I think it turned out cute anyways.


Winter

I was flipping through some of my scrapbook magazines and found some inspiration for this winter layout. I printed my journaling on vellum and tied everything together with some stitching. The glitter embellishments I found from a Christmas card sent to me by some friends. I just love it when I reuse stuff! I'm pretty sure those came from Stampin' Up because she is a SU consultant. :) Hope you are inspired today.




"Daddy's Boys" layout

This was a simple and quick layout to put together and I always love those. The title came from my handy dandy cricut (sorry, been watching too many Blue's Clues with my kids). Hope you enjoy!
