Easter - Paper Issues

 So I had another FB LIVE just the past Monday night.  

You can go HERE if you are interested in watching it on replay.  

I used American Crafts Buenos Dias and a FREE cut file - Easter Chicks.

Happy Camper - Paper Issues

 You guys, my title may be happy camper but I gotta tell you he was NOT!

We dropped him off at a Boy Scout Camp for the week.  Randy went and met him 1/2 way through but he still hated it.  Hated it cause he always wants his dad to go to.  I bet later in life he will have fond memories and say it was a good time.  I hope.  

Over at Paper Issues, there is a Camp Crop going on.  It doesn't have to be about camping but I saw this Happy Camper FREE cut file and had to use it.  So this layout is more about the art and the love of crafting than the itty bitty sized photo that I shrunk to fit in the door! 

I did a FB Live video to create this bad Larry.  You can find it HERE. Along with the Free file, I used Simple Stories Vintage Great Escape.  For the love of mushrooms, I just can't get enough.  I have more ephemera and sticker but have run out of paper!  Who would have thought mushrooms would be all the rage?  

Baseball - Paper Issues

 Nothing worse than having an entire post written and then its gone!

So today I am sharing a layout I created for the Paper Issues Camp Crop that is from Aug 14-16th.    There is loads of inspiration, challenges and prize to be had.  I am playing along with the Star Gazer Challenge.  Each challenge you play along with, you earn a badge.  Just like summer camp or Girl Scouts! 

I used Carta Bella Baseball and used a piece of flair from A Flair for Buttons.  The cut file is FREE from the Paper Issues store and called USA Star.   

Paradise - Paper Issues

 Hey friends.  I've been out kissing dolphins.  

Not really.  This was last year.  But I was kissing dolphins, seals and seal lions.  I had a ball.  Probably more fun than my fam cause I love animals so much.  I think Roman has my animal loving heart too.  He is super kind.  Anywho, I am here to share a layout for Paper Issues - Free File Feature.  For this feature, a few of us used the same cut file - Geometric Hexagon.  ALL of the cut files over at Paper Issues are FREE!  Download them all if you want.  May take a minute or two but I highly recommend it.

Here is what I created.  I used Bella Blvd Island Escape and a few other things too.

I used the Geometric Cut File as is.  I used the center of the hexagon as a template to cut my photo so it would be in the same shape for the center of the layout.  I cut triangles from random papers in the collection. 

Here is my layout and under that is the cut file!
