Second month with the JBS girls!
I used the back of the Collage Press shaped paper as a mask, and then later used it in another layout. Believe it or not, I’ve welcomed embellishments into my life. Although, I am in amazement at what other scrapbookers can do with them. I consider myself quite the embellishment rookie.
I’m not quite sure how you feel about close ups. Do you think them? Or are they an unnecessary waste of blog space?
Well, in any case, I’ll add a couple. :)
I used some gess, stitching, and hand cutting for this one. I think it makes for a funky yet sweet layout of my little cousin, Jo. The title was made out of a vintage flashcard that came in the kit.












Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing.
i am so proud. the stitching about made me pass. out. i am such a sucker for any kind of sewing on pages!
and all of the orange you have been using has been intriguing to me.
it’s kinda like that feeling you can’t wear certain colors…i feel like i can’t scrap certain colors!
weird,eh?
question…
do you photograph or scan most of your LOs?
inquiring minds want to know ;)
Mandi, I hate to gush like a silly goose, but these are some of my favorite layouts you’ve ever done :) They all make me smile :)
Um, that camera layout is probably my favorite layout in a long, long time of anyone I’ve seen in a long, long time. The colors, the hand cut font, the simplicity…all perfect.
Great job on all of them but that one was exceptional!!!
Great job!!
i so love your style of scrapping. it’s so unique and refreshing!
gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.

Your pages here make my heart go pitter-pat. They are inspiring and if you uploaded them to SIS I think I would Catwalk every one of them! =)
Seriously.
I happen to like the detail shots too. Especially when they are of your amazing details. Love!

Your are rocking those kits girl!! :-) I’m in scrappy heaven looking at your stuff!
Adorable!! I especially like the bobby pinks one – so clean yet so personal. That’s impressive!
i love the hand cut title on “camera shy” and the title on “home sweet home”… and pretty much everything you ever do! i’m so excited that you are scrapping more! i’m pretty sure you’re one of my favorite scrapbookers, if not *the number one* favorite. so needless to say, your work inspires me.
