Happy Thursday and Happy Independence day to all my Indian Friends. Scrapbook Challenge #6 is now live on ICR.

It is a simple sketch challenge and I love sketches and esp sketches which have 4x6 photos on them which makes the whole layout very easy to do.

Here is my layout. These are pictures of my friend's daughter and of course her friend. I just love these pictures of the girls together wearing same outfit. I remember wanting to have the same outfit as my friend's when I was a kid. :)

I used some papers from an old studio calico kit. I love the heart border punch from Fiskars. The best part of this LO for me is the Emily Merritt's new Journaling cards available on TLP called "Beautiful You". I used the Hello Beautiful Circle that I cut out from a Journaling card and the heart on the top right corner as well. I also used Emily Merritt's One Hundred Percent (the red circular tag near the heart). This is one of my most fav EM collections ever. Some SC Wooden Asterix and bird finished off my layout.

Happy Always

Hi Friends, Happy Sunday. Hoping that your week went well. We had a good weekend and I am here to share this layout that I did of my friend's daughter. This was just a impromptu picture she got on her mobile phone camera, but the emotions and the smile on her face was just priceless, so I had to create a layout with it.

I used Emily Merritt's Big Bold Letters Color to create the Title and added the always (a silhouette die cut). Of course I had to use Emily's Thumbs Way Up. Just love the sentiment that says "100%B Awesomeness". Some hodge podge of patterned papers from Stash and some chipboard buttons completed the page. Easy layout, but feels so good and happy just like the Girl.

You can stop by at The Lilypad to check out more Emily's designs. She has a new one for Summer. Watch out for a layout using those journaling cards.

Traditional - a scrapbook layout

Hi Friends, Happy Friday. I hope you are having a good day and looking forward to the weekend. I am excited on Fridays :))

I wanted to share this quick layout that I did of my friend and her daughter in Traditional Indian Outfits. I just loved these pictures and they were perfect with this Blue and Pink Polka Dot paper that I had.

I kept it simple with the colors of the papers and the photos speaking for themselves. I had to add some butterfly embellishments and I am in love with the bottle cap stickers lately. So, I had  to use this one that says Girls Rule. I also used the 100% Awesomeness label from Emily Merritt's Thumbs Way Up Collection.

Here are some closeup's,

I used Studio Calico's new 12x12 Grid Paper as my background. I am in love with these papers. They make the perfect Nuetral backgrounds. And I am totally in love with the my new Silhouette blade. It makes cutting welded letters such a joy and Making my layouts look so much nicer.
