Playing with confetti...

Hi friends!  I have a fun layout to share today.  Lately the confetti craze has been taking over the scrapbooking world.  I recently picked up a pack of transparencies for a bargain on ebay and thought that it would be fun to make a giant slide filled with confetti. 


I cut the slide with my Silhouette cameo and then backed it with two sheets of transparency paper and sandwiched a whole lot of confetti in between and then glued the ends shut. I didn't bother to
glue the confetti in place. It moves along with the layout which I think is pretty fun.

American Crafts Guest Designer projects

Hey everyone,
I am very excited to share with you my guest designer projects that I did for American Crafts


Daddy's Best Friend Layout by Gina Lideros

Tip: It wouldn't be Father's day in our house if I didn't include our 2 legged friends. This photo is special to me because Roxy is the first dog that we adopted together
as a family and she has a special place in Daddy's heart.  When working with a large
photo I found that it is easiest to keep the embellishments simple and bringing in lots
of color from different patterns compliments a black and white photo well.

 Gone Fishing with Dad Layout by Gina Lideros







 

Tip: I cut this quotation bubble background with my Silhouette. It makes such a fun
and interesting background for a layout. They were
also super convenient for me
to journal in.

Daddy's Shoes Layout








Tip: Don't forget to look around the home to use "found items" on your layouts.
To add texture to this layout I wrapped plain white paper straws with strips
of alternating pattern papers.  I love the visual interest that it adds.

What a Guy mini album 









Tip:  I documented some of our favorite memories of my husband in this album. It will make
a great gift from the kids for Father's day.  I loved using the bright patterns from these collections to quickly put together this album.
