Look how they've grown

With a new month, the new galleries at Elle's Studio and Write Click Scrapbook are up. Be sure to go check them out and get inspired!

Here's maybe my favorite page I made this month:


I took this photo right after my boys bought mammoth pumpkins. (FTR, never again. Too hard to carve! Mighty impressive to trick or treaters, though.) I intended to scrap the pumpkins, but I had a moment when I saw this photo once printed: look how big the boys are! Young men, not boys. It makes me a bit verklemmt to look at this photo. So that's what I scrapped about.


I used the Elle's Studio tags for this page. LOVED how well the circles fit into the Studio Calico circle wood veneer. Serendipity.


 Look! A ribbon! Confessions: I hate buying premade ribbons, but I like making them. Go figure.


A technique I like: sprinkle a bit of one color of embossing powder--just a bit--tap it off, then pour the main color. Tap off, emboss, and enjoy the two-tone.

I'll share the rest of the pages I made for the galleries in the next few days. Now I'm off to grade more papers...

they are getting so big! I remember when you used to bring them in Scrapbooks Too back in the day. I may have missed it but what is the background cardstock you used on this page. I might have to get some!!
