You & Me - American Crafts April Gallery Layout

Hi everyone,
Good afternoon!  Wow, the month of April sure flew by fast.  I can't believe it is going to be May this week.  I have a layout to share with you today for the American Crafts April gallery.

The first layout that I made for the gallery is of my two adorable nieces.  Sophia is 5 and baby Olivia is 8 weeks.  They make the perfect subjects to scrap!


You and Me Layout

To create my layout, I started by cutting a 12x12 background with my Silhouette Cameo, then I used it as a mask to spray mist the background.  I also cut a few additional pieces (the same size as the drops in the mask) out of Amy Tangerine Plus One paper, and used a sewing machine to sew them down.

 I used a mix of Amy Tangerine Plus One, Cut and Paste, Dear Lizzy 5th & Frolic, SC Printshop, SC Lemon Lush and Crate Paper Oh Darling on my layout.  I love being able to mix and match the lines that AC and their sub companies make.

Thanks for stopping by today!  I will be back tomorrow with another new layout :)  Have a good one!

Teamwork

Hi everyone,
Wow, hard to believe that it is Wednesday already. Where has my week gone?
I have been spending quite a bit of time at the gym lately. Ever since we got a family membership over the summer it has been my obsession.

I have also been very busy with Cheer and Football. I am the team manager of Kalee's cheer team so I spend a lot of time there. Both teams won their games last weekend and we had a big celebration. I love when that happens.

I had some time to play with the Studio Calico Central High kit this week and had lots of misting fun!

and a funny for you today...
Matt decided to wear his football helmet on the drive to school today, because he says that Mom is a crazy driver.

There may be a little truth to that, but I love this kid. He cracks me up everyday!

Enjoy this moment & remember

Hiya friends,

Happy Wednesday. Hope that your week is treating you well. I got the kids off to school and now I am enjoying a nice cup of coffee. I have a layout that I would like to share today using the new Heyday collection from Studio Calico and some SC stamps. I love how it came out!

Enjoy this moment & remember layout:

I really wanted to purchase the sunburst and plano circle as a mask but they were sold out at SC, so I purchased them both as stamps. I sprayed them with Mister Huey's spray mist and then stamped them on my layout. I especially love the look stamped on canvas. So cool!

supplies:
pattern papers: Studio Calico - Hey day collection
die cuts: Studio Calico - Hey day collection
stamps: starburst background stamp, plano stamp (Studio calico)
mask: ampersand (Studio Calico)
spray mists: Mister Huey's (Studio Calico)
