The Wonderful West







I've been playing with some fun papers from Cosmo Cricket and Close To My Heart with a Western Feel. We've had a couple of fun excuses to use CTMH's western themed stamp sets too!
The first photo shows the inside of a fold out. It has the small flyer on the outside and the full program from the day on the inside cover that can open for reading and the map of the place. Then opposit, I have 8 smaller photos of some of the activities the family did and saw at the event. I love how it turned out. I used some of the older embllishments I had from CTMH for the first layout and brads I found at Kroger, discontinued from Making Memories on the second layout. Here, I used the Adorable stamp set from CTMH.
I also used the Sasparilla papers for a sweet layout I made of my husband and our daughters, but I'm not posting it here yet. I'm toying with the idea of getting my website up again, so will save it for there!






Hope you enjoy these as much as I do. All inks are CTMH as well as the stamps.

Graduation Darling











This is a fun graduation set I got from Clear and Simple Stamps. I used it to create some fun projects. The 12 x 12 layout, card and pencil holder are made using papers, embellishments and inks from CTMH and Stamps from Clear and Simple. The card hat keeps the center opening card together and swivels with the brad. I've been creating all weekend in the midst of our family outings and will try to post some more of these projects later!
