Gone Krazy! Layout

This past weekend, the Pride of Baltimore Chorus had their annual show.  For once I am on top of things and finished my scrapbook layout of the show.

This is just a short clip on how I put together the title for the layout.  I had filmed more, but the sound got all messed up.  Leave a comment if you have any questions about the finished layout.

Here is a trinket I made to match the project

In honor of my birthday I will also be giving away a grab bag from my stash.  Become a follower of my blog and leave a comment on this post to enter.  I will randomly draw a name next Wednesday, April 13th.

Pre-Emptive Scrapbooking

So my barbershop chorus, Rochester Rhapsody, competed at internationals this past weekend.  We came in 11th out of 25 which we are all quite proud of.  So I decided to for the first time do some pre-emptive scrapbooking.  I made a layout for the Chorus group photo we took before going out on stage.  Our performance package was a Cinderella theme so I went with blue and silver.  I don't know if I'll use glitter paper again though, the paper was so thick I went through a lot of the darn expensive paper just to get the cuts I wanted.  Anyway, hope you like the layout.

I used Diamond Stickles to outline everything.

A cute note the section leaders gave us along with the carriage charm.

Scrapbook Layouts and a Note

I am in a barbershop chorus part of Harmony Inc.  This weekend is the international competition in Providence, RI.  This means I won't have internet access from Thursday to Sunday.  Of course I will go through withdraw from email, but also from my blog as well as everyone else's that I look at everyday.  Just so people know in case it looks like I've disappeared.

Now on to the scrapbook layouts.  A couple of days ago I was on a streak and finished two scrapbook layouts for our San Francisco trip.

These pictures are from Boudin the best sour dough bakery I've ever been to.  Look at the cute little animals they make.  I decided to try grouping photos like I saw on Celebrate the Seasons on Two Peas in a Bucket.  The layout isn't exactly like any they have up, but I thought it would be interesting to try.  The bottom border is from the bag they gave me when I bought bread.  I covered the entire thing with Tea Dye Distress Ink.

This is a slightly girly page, but I like how it turned out.  I used a textured pink paper as the main page.  The strips of paper are from Magpie Club November Kit.  All of the things in it are absolutely adorable!  The accents are rub-ons are also from the kit.

I love this saying

We found this cute little playground at a park in San Francisco and decided to swing on the swings.  It was so odd, in the middle of the week there was a ton of people just outside enjoying the weather instead of being at work.  I wish that was my day everyday.

I love these butterflies.  They have music on them!

Two Peas in a Bucket - Celebrate the Seasons October

I went to Two Peas in a Bucket education section and found these brilliant ideas for scrapbook layouts.  I am still in the process of doing our trip to San Francisco and I thought this month's was a great idea.  It was using diecut frames in your layout.  We were also supposed to theme it fall or halloween, but I didn't have any of those pictures.  It is really nice to see an idea that uses so many pictures because not all of my pictures need to be showcased but I would like to include them in the album.  This is my food page.  The opposite page says "Of Course There Was Singing" so this one says "and food."  Hope you like it.

I designed the layout on my Gypsy just using the blackout rounded square from All Mixed Up.  The ribbon in the middle is to hide the fact that I have a Create and can only cut 6X12.  I thought it came out well.  Michael looks so thrilled. :)

My First Scrapbook - Disney 2007

Here is the scrapbook I put together for my Disney trip in 2007.  The layouts aren't that great, but I spent ridiculous amounts of time cutting out each little piece from the park maps and things like that.

Bought Vintage Looking Disney Scrapbook Album

All done before my Cricut, obviously.  I cut everything out with an exacto knife.  I also used the Disney scrapbook package that they sell in the parks.
