Many of the DT members at Paper Issues have created layouts with this sketch and they are all ridiculously inspiring.  I love seeing so many different takes on such a unique sketch!

Here’s mine:

I used a combination of the Collecting Moments and Happy Go Lucky collections from Fancy Pants Designs to scrap my little apple dumpling.  :-D

The deadline is November 30th so you still have time to enter to win that kickin’ prize! 

A Hybrid Halloween

Halloween is my favorite holiday and I like any excuse to dress up my little cuties in costumes or other holiday appropriate clothes.  Naturally Lily needed a spooky little shirt this year!

 
 
I mean, really.  There’s no way you can resist that face!

AND I whipped up this hybrid frame from another digi file that I printed directly onto muslin. 

 

You can see step by step instructions on how to make both of these projects on the Pink Paislee blog!

Have a Happy Halloween!

Breaking all the Project Life Rules

My latest assignment for Fancy Pants Designs was not only a two –pager (which I struggle with) but a Project Life spread.  Now, I fully appreciate the gorgeous things I see coming out of Project Life.  But it’s just not for me and I had never even attempted it.  It’s tough for a gal who loves layers!

So what was I to do?  I pretty much just found a way to break the “rules” and make it my own.

I didn’t even use divided page protectors on this ::gasp::!

You can read all about how I adapted Project Life to fit my scrapping style and see the details of my page at the Fancy Pants Designs blog!
