Classes

I am staging all of my December Daily products so I can get rolling with documenting something everyday for the month.   I did it last year and was completely overwhelmed.  I was not organized at all and am determined not to let that happen this year.  Although we are 3 days into December, I can catch up.  I work better when organized.  Later I will share photos of my organized mess.  Should those two words really be together?   BTW, Dickie has returned to our home and I can tell that this year he will continue to be up to no good.  Here are a few picks of the mischievous fella!  Wake ups are much better since he arrived except we can't do anything until we find him first!

Anyway, I had forgotten to share with you a picture of the class I will be teaching locally.  I am in LOVE with the kraft look but think for my DD I will go with more white and silver.  Maybe a touch of blue and pink.  Hmmmmm, I don't know.  I love this years Christmas line by October Afternoon and the one by Webster Pages.  Totally different looks, wonder if I can pull off blending the two together!

Bubba has recently been repeating, (and I mean REPEATING!) "How much wood can a woodchuck chuck....." So I have that tune in my head but with different words, "How much flair can you fit on a page...." Get the idea?  With Halloween fast approaching, I needed to do something with last years photos.  I have included 5 flair on this 12x12 layout!  With repetition being the key word around here lately, I decided to repeat flair going down my page, creating a straight line.  There is never too much flair!

If you look closely at this page, it rather quite simple.  I layered three papers for my base and let the paper design do most of the work.  A couple random strips of paper, a few cut circle from the paper, a tag, washi tape, a title, cute photo and flair.  Lots of it!  I had several other photos that I wanted to use as well so I decided to accompany this layout with a Project Life page.  My first ever completed Project Life!

With using an assortment of photos, there is not much room for embellishing.  So, I kept this side simple as well.  This Teresa Collins line was a perfect pairing for my spooky pictures.  

Here is what this double page will look like displayed in my album.  I hope that you are inspired to dig out some creepy photos and create something spook-tacular with flair!

Below is a list of flair I used in this layout.

I Love Arrows Flair

Minimal 1 Flair

cause i feel like it

Hmmmm, seems like that is a common phrase that spews out of my sons mouth lately.  Is it the age?  Hormones?  Sassiness?  Like I have said before, he is just like his daddy.  Because it can't be me!  He just looks so handsome in these photos.  Don't ya think?  He wanted to dress up for school, cause he felt like i t!  

Here is another layout create with the monthly club kit from Ink About It.  The line is Teresa Collins - Stationary Noted.  I used the papers, journaling card paper, die cut accessories, decorative buttons, chipboard, enamel dots and banner all from the same line.  I chose a stripped paper for the border, and make it a little chunkier than normal.  This red strip complimented the jacket.  I tucked a pocket behind the right photo to add my journaling.  I used my Cameo Silhouette again for the heart bubble and the arrows.  The black and white stripped paper is from October Afternoon.  The little journaling cards would be just perfect for Project Life but I layered with them.  I love the owl - makes the whole thing look "Smart!"

Thanks for stopping in.
