Tree Pick Up

I’m stuck inside avoiding the sun as my antibiotics make me sensitive to sunlight, so I got another layout done.  The online group I’m in was challenging to create a cut out frame to save paper.  I didn’t flip the cut out to the reverse side as I wanted to use the same print but added dimension with the grey matte.  The paper and stickers are CM but from different collections but work well together.  I added a squiggle of green glitter glue to all the trees for a little sparkle.

Spring Induction

 I just got my hands on the Pacific scenes paper from Creative Memories and put together this layout for Eric's scout album.  

I also did a little mix and matching from other collections.  The tag is from Leave Nothing Behind, and the journal box is from Happy Camper

In the cluster, the circle had a whale breaching in front of a mountain, but I covered it with the bear so that I could have just the mountains

I think I might have to grab the Mountain science too

Lasting memories- Size it up

 I'm super excited to have got another layout done this rainy afternoon.  I have finally finished my son's scout album for 2023 with this page.  I challenged myself to follow the lasting memories size it up challenge

Here are some general guidelines:

• Rectangular strips can be border punched, turned into banners or tags.

• Larger rectangles, circles or squares should be left whole.

• If you'd like to do a double page, use all of the required pieces on one page and then duplicate only those you want on the 2nd page.

• Photos may be matted with additional paper.

• Add your choice of embellishments, titles, journaling, etc.

• You can use scraps or cut pieces out of whole sheets of paper.

LM #755 - Use the following sizes of papers on your layout.

3 - 5" squares

3 - 1.5 x 5 strips

3 - 2" circles

I didn't alter any of the square or strips but did tuck two of my circles.  The Merry Christmas to hide the partial "merry" on the bottom side as it was a printed paper with the message repeated over and over.  The other circle is missing a small chunk so I stuck it under the edge of the photo to hide it.

Hope you like it and can play along with Lasting Memories too

Switzerland

 Got some rain going off and on so I decided to spend the afternoon inside.

My son's troop went to summer camp in Switzerland and I have already created several pocket pages to document the trip but I also like to have a single page for his scout year album.

I created this layout using the June 1st challenge from Sketches in Thyme and I'm also combining it with a  Creative MemoriesVIP group on FB that has us using hearts on our layout.

For the CM challenge we have to create with mostly CM materials.

I used 2020 Reflections Designer patterned paper and CM heart punch in 1.25 and 1.5 inches.

Only the grey base is not CM
