LGS with Prima's Time Traveler Collection!!!!

Hey there fellow crafters!!!  School is officially out here in Florida and summer is well under way!  

I'm popping in today to share the new weekly sketch over at Let's Get Sketchy!  Here's a look:

LOVE this sketch!!!!  And, of course, I had to use the goodies from this month's "Capture the Moment" kit over at Frosted Designs! It's packed full of Prima products, including the new Time Traveler collection, as well as Cartographer, and Stationer's Desk too!  Just look at how beautiful these papers and embellies are!!!

From This Moment with Prima's Time Traveler Collection

I am truly having so much fun playing with all these Prima goodies!!!  It's like heaven over here!!!  

I started my page by building up my background with molding paste and gelatos.  

After blending the gelatos with a baby wipe, I did some random stamping using various stamps and a Faber Castell Big Brush Pen.

I found this chipboard postage stamp piece in my stash and decided to give it a treatment of Lindy's Starburst Pearls and the Perfect Pearls Spray included in this month's kit.

I gave the same treatment to one of the white Petaloo flowers, also in the FD store!

I ordered this bird cage template from the store and thought it perfect for this page!!!  I used some Walnut Stain distress ink and the liquid pearls from the kit to create this look.

The Prima trim in the kit is fabulous and goes with pretty much any style of crafting!!!  I used it to add a cute little bow around my picture!!!  I also added more flowers and wood icon pieces!

I finished the page with a chipboard title from Creative Embellishments (LOVE their chipboard!!!!).  I first sprayed it with the inks mentioned above, then heat embossed random areas with Distress Powder in black.  

This is a very special page and will definitely go in our wedding album (one of them!!!).  

Well gang...  Thanks soooo much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)

SYS Challenge #6 and SNS #30!!!

Happy Friday!!! It's yet another gloomy day here in sunshiney Florida!!! It's been raining for three days and I'm hoping it will let up sometime soon!!! Anyway, I wanted to share a few things with you that I was able to finish this week :-)

The first is this week's challenge #6 over at Scrap Your Story!!! The challenge is to create a layout with the "Spring" theme in mind.  You can use flowers, spring colors, easter, etc.   GET CREATIVE!!! Of course, I myself went with the traditional Easter photos from this year!!! These were taken at my dad's on Sunday afternoon with the girls in their ever so beautiful atire!! 

I also used Sketch #30 from Sketch N scrap, and combined this with numerous other challenges that I will list below!  So, here is the sketch to work with:

And here is my layout: I pretty much stayed true to the sketch with only a few variations! I didn't have any sunlight to photograph it so I used my DSLR camera in hopes of a better photo.  I will upload a better one when the sun comes out to play!  

Aren't these girls just precious?!?!?  Yes, that would be me with my amazing pose for the camera in the top left... I am officially a goof ball!!!  I have had sooooooo much fun playing with the Heidi Swapp "Sugar Chic" paper collection!!!!! The papers are absolutely AMAZING and one of my fav collections to work with so far!!!  I also have fun playing with canvas, which I was able to sneak in on the bottom right.  I inked it to match the colors of the page, then stamped it and added "stitching" rub-ons to the edges.  

I used various flowers, grungeboard swirls (which I embossed white and placed inside the flower cluster), Thickers, and chipboard letters which were also heat embossed to the colors I wanted.  I am very pleased with this entire layout and cannot wait to actually photograph it in the sun for a better view at the wonderful colors!!!!
