Feb creativity

Thought I'd share more of my work. Or should I say play. LOL These three layouts I created during a day crop in Feb. I was only able to attend because I have a great husband and wonderful friends - they loaded and unloaded my car for me. Yep - this crop was after the skiing oops.

This layout is from the pig roast we hosted after we returned from our big RV/motorcycle vacation last year. Pig roasts remind me of Hawaiian luaus (even tho I've never been to one), so I chose this cool colorful paper that reminds me of a lei. The flowers and the circles on the orange borders are all glitter - appropriate for a party!

I got some new toys in 2008, so I thought I'd scrap the major ones. The first was my leap into the modern musical age - an mp3 player. I loved and still do love my little iriver clix. It's the tiniest little thing, with a big beautiful colorful screen. But it's only a 4 gb, so I ran out of space really quickly, and hated unloading some tunes so I could load others. ARGH! So Greg bought me a fab ipod for Christmas '08 that has a 120 gb - which I'll NEVER be able to fill with just music. Anyway.... I bought a new car shortly before our ill-fated motorcycle trip. And I absolutely LOVE my little Honda Civic. She handles oh so well, and fits into just about any parking spot. And most importantly, she fits me like a glove... as if she were tailored for petite folks. Then last but certainly not least - my cricut, a die cut system. It rocks. Not only can I use it for scrapbooking, I can use it for "practical" purposes, such as the directional sign I made for our pig roast - with our names in nice big bold letters.

This is a quick and relatively simple layout I did for one of our annual U.P. ski trips. The snowflakes on the bottom are from a precut glittered sheet of paper, I merely cut around the snowflakes to create a somewhat even border. I think my fave thing about this LO is the way I used epoxy (thick and shiny) stickers to create a border around the photos. :)
