Layout (FINALLY!)

Hello,

I have a layout to share today...I made this when I was at Scrapfest and am finally getting around to sharing it with you!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE how it turned out!!!  This required some serious effort for me...I had a hard time mixing patterns and adding stamping, but I am really happy with the end results!!  Hope you enjoy!

The majority of the papers I used are from the Bella Blvd Tail Waggers & Cat Naps Collection (SO CUTE!!!), along with a few papers I had in my collection.
Letter Stickers are Sassafrass, MME Lush, and Cosmo Cricket Tiny Type
Stamps are by Autumn Leaves

Please leave a comment.  I love to hear from you!!

Scapfest Oshawa This Weekend!

I spent my weekend at a local scrapping event, (Scrapfest) shopping and cropping! Wanted to share a few pictures from my time there.


Each table had a pumpkin to decorate for a contest.  This is our tables pumpkin.  We won first place!

Each member of our table received this awesome prize!

This is the second place pumpkin.  Don't they make a cute pair!

These are some of the projects I got done over the weekend.

Hope you had a fun weekend as well!

Scrapfest

Hello!

I spent this past weekend in Kitchener, Ontario participating is SCRAPFEST! It was two full days of scrapbooking fun! I was not NEARLY as productive as I thought I would be, but I had a great time. On Friday I arrived later than the start - I had to work until about 2 and then drive about an hour to get to Kitchener, but I met my tablemates, and they were a HOOT! Some very fun ladies who I hopeto see at the next Scrapfest event in October. We scrapped on Friday until 12pm - which required uncalled for amounts of Peanut M&M's to be eaten (they were delicious)! Saturday started at 9am, and I had two classes this day.

The first was a 'Not Your Ordinary Paper Bag Album' class with Kelly Panaci. It was a good class, but I had a hard time focussing due to the earlyness of the day, the lateness of the previous night, and the lack of extra caffeine to get me going in the morning.

The second class was 'Technique Tags and Portfolio' (I think) with Vicki Boutin. I learned SO MUCH in this class, and promptly left the class at the end and headed straight to the marketplace to purchase some of the supplies we had used in that class (Ranger Distress Inks mostly).

Speaking of the Marketplace. DANGEROUS. I spent uknown amounts of money in that place. I don't want to calculate the actual total. It is too frightening. I bought a lot of fun kits for some no-thinking required scrapbooking...I am hoping this will help me get some of my overdue stuff done! And I bought paper. Ooodles of paper. I loooooooove paper. It makes me SO HAPPY! I also bought a LOT of thickers alpha sets. My table mates were in hysterics by the end of Friday evening becasue it seemed that every time I went over to the marketplace (which was often) I came back with some new alpha sets. They were very pretty. And hard to resist. :)

Here are a few of the layouts I worked on this weekend. The last one is not finished yet. I have several other half-finished projects as well, but will post those (and this last one probably) when they are done.

Hope all is well with everyone!
