I got a bunch done at this fall retreat. It's just what I needed to jumpstart the creative flow again. I plan on getting back to regular creating and posting now that the cross country season is coming to a close. One more meet this Sunday.
Here's the start of my 2021 album
Birthday layout of yours truly. Combo of dessert and b-day run
First hike of the year with my adventure partner 'Jodie" at Horse Rock Ridge
Followed by the February hike at Whiteaker Creek. I used CM winter wonderland collection
I tried to pick out mostly Creative memories papers and collections as I was at my CM advisors retreat
Almost used up all of this kit too. I picked it for the embellishments, that went with the dog photos
For this one I went with the pink fresh " office hours" kit but used a CM template
More CM papers for this super-fast layout mixed with embellishments from my stash
I created this base during an online crop last spring with CM sisters ( Melisa Ulman) winter frolic paper. It was perfect for my photos of my orienteering adventure with my PDX girlfriend Tami
Nothing like some spring colors to document as spring run with my girl
Fresh Fusion CM papers to capture our Spring break photos at the coast
CM Little lamb papers which are meant to be used as baby pages had the right color combos for this sweet Easter layout. I also used my CM heart punch to create the eggs with a little trimming with my scissors. Now that the kids are older we've moved away from egg hunts and baskets in favor of just plain candy in a bowl
A few of the sunrise photos to compliment so photos of the Beacon Rock sunrise hike that I did with Crystal and Tami. I have a two page spread that I shared earlier for a Lasting Memories GDT layout
I did break out some mixed media a the retreat as well. The ladies got a good clucking when I went back to my room to use the hairdryer on the page to get the white paint to dry faster. Also used some Shimerz mist and paints along with a mix of embellishment leftovers from multiple kits
Covid birthday with one friend. Video games, candy, and cake.
May hiking adventure was a short 3/4 mile hike into meditation Springs ( Hot Springs). Not sure how much of the forest is left in the area after this summer firers
End of the year spirit week. Western wear with Tiff the Flamingo Rider. I work with some amazing people
Some pictures of my third scrap space in the house. Last January I moved into my eldest daughter's room after she left for advanced training at job corp. When we moved in 7 years ago I shared space in the den with my husband but his scout gear has slowly overtaken the space. Now I'm set up in the front entry nook. Small but adequate
I'm not really a fan of Vickie Bouton's bohemian style but the embellishments were a perfect pairing with my June hike of the Fitton Green/ Mt. Baldy hike with Jodie. We saw this iridescent bluebird on the fence, A rubber boa on the trail, and a geocache surrounded by poison oak. I created the large 5x7 photo by overlapping and trimming two 4x6 photos of the scenery from the top.
Documented my summer school job
Finished off the retreat by having this layout cut and ready for assembly at home.
I've always struggled with mixed font titles but love how this one turned out.
