Good morning everybody!! TODAY is a GOOD day!! It's MY LAST DAY of work & I'll be off w/my beautiful boys for the summer!! whoohooo! Can I just say that "I LOVE MY JOB & MY LIFE"! One of the best parts about my life it is that I can share "My Creative Time" with ALL of YOU! I am REALLY excited about today's project! Our theme this month was "Family" which I think is THE MOST IMPORTANT part of all of our lives! No matter what happens in life, FAMILY will ALWAYS be there for you, "No Matter What!" I chose to do a "Simple" but "Cute" 8x8 layout that I designed using "My Best Friend" Gypsy! She really put this project together VERY WELL!;) Everything I used is from one of my Favorite carts which is "Don Juan" & the hats are from "Paper Dolls"! I really wanted to use the baseball caps for all of us since we all LOVE baseball! I was bummed because I couldn't find that picture I was looking for of the four of us @ my boys baseball game! So I had to use a different picture, which actually came out pretty good! I was SOO EXCITED to use My Pink Stamper's "Family & Friends" set! WHAT A GREAT stamp set! EVERY stamp in this set is PERFECT to go along with MANY, if not ALL of your projects! AND, of course, I use my favorite "Everyday Character Faces" for my little hands! I hope you enjoy my video explaining how this was made!
This was NOT the picture I wanted to use, but I couldn't find my baseball picture of the 4 of us:( So I had no choice but to use this one! I think it still looks cute!;) As you can see, I added some stickles to the title & used my black marker to doodle around the hands!
Well, THank You SOOO MUCH for visiting my blog! I REALLY LOVE reading all the SWEET comments ALL of you have been leaving me! I have some fun stuff coming up, so prepare yourselves!;) lol....
Have a WONDERFUL THURSDAY & we'll see you back here again tomorrow for a "My Pink Stamper" challenge! This is one you DON'T want to miss!
P.S. Don't forget to check out the rest of the "Pink Designers" blogs to see what they created & don't forget to leave them some love;)
THANKS AGAIN EVERYBODY!;)

Enjoy your holidays and your family time.

Emma! I love it! What happened to your awesome notebook?? I think I am going to use mine for the exact same thing you use yours for. I just use random notebooks right now and have no order. LOL! Who would have thought!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for being one of My Pink Designers. You girls are so talented!!
such a lovely family...and project great job dear friend!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I like all the doodling you have done on this layout.
ReplyDeleteEmma, Your page is tooooooo cute! I just love it! - disneygirl
ReplyDeleteAnother video filled with good ideas and helpful hints. One thing I would find most helpful is if you could show how you cut from your gypsy design. I know there is the time element to consider, but even cutting part would be a good thing for me.
ReplyDeleteEmma this is really cute and I think the picture you used is perfect.
ReplyDeleteEmma, this is a great layout. I just love it when you do layouts!! But, I have to say that your cards are very inspiring. I really appreciate all the videos that you make, I always learn something from them. But, most importantly, they inspire to break out and use my gypsy!! I can't wait to see what you have in store for us this summer. I hope you enjoy you time with your family. Thanks again, Dallas
ReplyDeleteSo cute....I'm not a scrapbooker, but this could convert me!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE those face stamps, they have such great expressions. Thanks Emma the page is beautiful! Love, Cathryn
ReplyDeleteOh, I do agree family is the best. You sure captured it in this layout. How fun!
ReplyDeleteTcbbgibson@gmail.com
Love the family. Cute, cute, cute, cute. I must buy that Peachy Keen stamp set. Your cards are adorable, will be an everyday watcher.
