My favorite baby layout

Basic Grey Two Scoops. Letters are from Calligraphy. Moon, giraffe and elephant are from New arrival. Stickers on the circle are from the Two Scoops collection. Animals are glittered.

Another page from the baby book

Basic Grey Two Scoops again. Prima flowers and generic ribbon. Precious is covered chipboard from Base Camp and is not glued down yet. Little One comes from New Arrival. Edges of torn paper are chalked.

Baby pages for a book for my tennis coach

this is a double page layout using Basic Grey Two Scoops Collection. corners were made with a Martha Stewart punch. Looks a little washed out. I like it much better in person.

St. Stephens Cathedral




St Stephens Cathedral in Passau, Germany was originally built in 1225 then destroyed by fire in 1662 and rebuilt in 1688. It is a barroque building which houses the largest organ outside the United States. It has 17,774 pipes and 223 registers. The photo on the upper right on the date page shows the organ. I could have stayed here taking photos forever. Such a beautiful church. Paper used is Basic Grey Ambrosia and Bazzill. Cartridges used are Blackletter and Indie Art. Embellishment is Ambrosia Chipboard.

Wikiki in Calligraphy font

I absolutely had to use the new Calligraphy cart I got for Christmas. I haven't had occassion to use it yet. I cut Waikiki at 2 1/2 inches and shadowed it with a coordinating Bazzill green. Just this little bit of green made the colors in the photos pop. So I added a little more green. The swishes were cut at 2 1/2 inches and was too big so I place it under the photo and cut another at 1 1/4 for the title. Journaling frame cut at 3 1/2 inches. I used the Basic Grey PP Euphoria and it is really PP, rather subtle too. Prima flowers and sparkles added.

Pearl Harbor in Basic Grey

In both layouts, the Granola Basic Grey paper, chip elements and coordinating buttons are used. Cricut font was Base Camp for the Pearl Harbor title and Plantin School book for the other. I used the navy motto here because it so depicts what these men exhibited during the attack. May we never forget what they and countless others have sacrificed for our freedoms. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart.

Vintage Golf Layout


I love Basic Grey. I love everything about it. It was perfect for this golf layout. The colors complemented the pictures perfectly. Only thing missing was to make it golf. Enter Wordle.com. The only thing necessary was entering golf terms. Then choosing a layout you like and colors that complement your paper.
