Button layout

Over at the Red Carpet Studio they're having a "use a button" challenge, like usual I'm entering the contest the last day,
I created another page for my sisters wedding memory book, using lots of memorabilia, the flowers are actual decorations from the wedding, I also used an actual wedding reception program.
The background papers are odd ones I've collected over the years, but the base paper is from a K & Company collection, the stickers are also from the collection, the bling and buttons come from my stash, the journal stamps is an Autumn Leaves, and the little Precious Moments establishment I created from clip art that I collected and printed, My sister loves Precious Moments and I've been trying to add a little element to each of the pages.

You & Me layout

I found a new challenge over at the My Creative Time blog, http://www.creativetimeforme.com/
I'm a big fan of this blog, I love her work and her dies are just fab.
anyway the challenge was to use some memento on your project.
For my layout I used 3 mementos: the 2 little cards with poems and the necklace. The layout is an additon to the scrapbook i'm making my sister of her wedding, her hubby gave her those 2 little cards during the time they were going out, and the necklace I gave her once as a special sister gift, after her marriage she gave me these 3 items to fit into her album,
Other products used: Printed papers, cardstock, Cuddlebug dies-Hearts, Cricut cartridges-Sweethearts (You & Me phrase), Sentimentals cart (together forever phrase) & Life's a party cart (wedding rings).

Spotlighted!!!!

I was spotlighted over at the FCCB, http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.ca/2013/03/happy-first-sunday-of-march-today-we.html I'm so excited this is the first time ever!

This is a layout I made for my Nieces 1st year scrapbook, I keep meaning to post it, This is the first time I've scrapbooked about my daddy since he's been gone, I still can't believe he's not here anymore and it's been over a year.
I'm finally done with my little niece Christiana's scrapbook, this was the final page. Who could ever have dreamed when I started the book 3 years ago I would be scrapbooking such a page at the end?
Another layout I always wanted to share, I so love my "baby steps' cartridge.
