Always take time . . .

In one of my Kits from Scrapbook Heaven came the paper from Bella Blvd - Flirty - Bits a Bella , which had this saying on it "Always take time to play every single day!"  I knew I had to use that saying on a layout of my oldest son and Izzy.  She adores him, will do anything he asks, and he is her favorite person. 

To start with I made my own white acrylic paint mist - a little bit of white acrylic paint and water added to a small spray bottle.  I sprayed this onto the Kraft paper and used my heat gun to speed up the drying process.  I have the cutting directions listed below.


I made my own filmstrip in Adobe Photoshop, inserted and sized my pictures and printed them out on 8 1/2x11 photo paper after changing them to black and white.


I made the same layout for my album but I used alphabet stickers for the saying.  My Kraft journal strip cut at 1 1/2x 12

Thanks for stopping by.

We have been having a hot, wet and very humid summer. The dragon fly is one of the biggest I've seen.

Anniversary

We went on a trip to the North Shore for our 26th Anniversary. Stayed at Cove Point and watched the Lighthouse being lit for the 100 year Anniversary. Then we played tourist as we have not been up to that area.

June


Here is the June template. My irises are all done blooming. I had transplanted some of the iris last year so they did not bloom, but they made up for it this year.

I'm having to fill this little bird feeder 2 - 3 times a week. We actually have 4 others in the yard, but we also have some mighty hungry birds.

St Patrick's Day

I caught Izzy taking a nap and getting some rays today. She doesn't normally jump up here, but maybe it was because it's St. Patrick's Day and she's making sure she had some green.

Christmas Cactus blooming in March.

Here is the March Template. My Christmas Cactus is in full bloom again. It normally blooms 3 to 4 times a year. Last summer I moved it outside to wash the leaves, the wind came up and blew it over. I now have three plants from my original plant. The picture is from the middle sized plant.

February....

is almost over and I have not been very good at blogging this month. I have the February template to share with you at both the 12x12 and 8x8 size. Izzy is not wanting to take a bath. She is really good though, no biting or growling, she just doesn't like to get wet.

January...

is almost gone and February is on it's way. I had a wonderful time with our family at the end of December and with my younger Sister during January. Now it's time to get back on track. I have a digital template for the months and some of the holidays. The border is done in black but can be changed to any color for your color scheme.


I did my page at 12x12. Click here for the 12x12 template.
