Eeeek! Pumpkin - Aria

This is one of my granddaughters. She loves a book called Aaaarrgghh, Spider! by Lydia Monks, so I used a play on that book for the title. I used old chipboard 3s for this title along with some letter stickers. My goal is to not buy any scrap supplies this year unless they come from yard sales. I need to get my stash back under control.


I used stickers and chipboard from several different companies. I never remember the companies, but if they work together, I use them together. I melted beads in the oven for the enamel like dots. I also used some old spiderweb ribbon on this.

The background paper was from a yard sale, and I love the spiders on it.

 I found an old brad spider to add to the title.

I used two sheets of paper and scraps on this layout.

First Day 10th Grade - Matthew

In photographing this layout, I realized the rubons failed, so I'll fix that before I put it in an album. I also see some letter stickers that need a bit more glue.

The title is foam letters.

 All of the rubons were falling off, so they will be replaced. The star is stamped and cut out as is "study time".

I put large white letter stickers on top of the white paper and lightly chalked the ones that say what I wanted. I am trying hard to use up old stash. I used stamps, bad rubons, and other bits and pieces on this layout.

Four sheets of paper were used in the construction of this layout.

The Healing Field - Matthew

I started with white cardstock and chalked the background using a mask. 


All the tags on this layout are from clothing items. There are so many things in our environment that go great on a scrap page. My kids save their tags for me.

 The title was made with stickers and my Cricut.

 Another clothing tag with parts covered.

 This is a transparent Polo tag. I used nail polish remover to take off their logo and leave the flag.

I used one sheet of 12X12 paper and scraps on this one.

Believe - Aliese Christmas 2007

This is my granddaughter Aliese. 


 The tree is from a gift tag.

The title is a mirror word that I got from Hobby Lobby along with the mirror stars at their Christmas clearance a couple of years ago.

Easter 2013 - Kayana

This page is for Kayana. The paper came from a kit that I picked up from a yard sale. This is Kayana, her mom, and her cousins along with Aunt Angie and Uncle Matt.

 The chipboard came from Caitie's stash as she isn't planning on scrapping anymore. The title is glittered thickers, but the 'e' is made from g with their tails cut off and laid on their sides. I ran out of es. I used some photo tabs for the arrows.
 The next two pictures have sticker tags from an Easter set of stickers and the chipboard is once again from Caitie's stash.

I used 1 12x12 sheet and 2 8x11 sheets for this layout along with a few scraps.

Easter 2013 - Callie

This layout is for Callie. I found paper that matched her dress.


The title is made from white glitter thickers, but I used chalk to make them match the layout. The flowers are a Martha Stewart punch. I cut them out and backed them with scraps from my scrap stash. I added a button to finish it off. The chipboard under them came from Caitie's stash. I sanded it and added ink to make it match. If you don't have what you need, make what you have work.
 I used some old Easter/ Spring stickers on this.
 More daisies to match Callie's dress from a Martha Stewart punch.
I used three full sheets of paper on this and some scraps.

Egg Hunt 2013 - Aliese

This layout was made for Aliese. I used product that I got from a yard sale. The background paper came from Cayli and Brandon.
 The title is old glitter stickers with glitter that stays on.

The ghost flowers came from a kit I picked up at a yard sale. I added pieces cut from a flannel border and some brads to the centers.

I used two sheets of paper on this along with some scraps.
