Northwoods Rocking Chair

The papers are from Sun Kiss by Prima.

Boy, oh boy, I love Northwoods stamps. I do wish they had a better marketing strategy! I colored the Spring Porch Rocker with Loew-Cornell pencils and outlined with a Micron pen.

Papa

I still love creating kits at home. I probably have about 8 going right now! This kit features We R Memory Keepers. It also includes bits from Basic Grey, Authentique, Fancy Pants, and more.

See that delicious polka dot paper from Chic Tags? I'm obsessed with it. This whole layout started with that piece of paper (or super thick cardstock, really). Then, I followed this sketch from Citrus Twist. I rarely start with a photo or theme in mind. I prefer to just play with patterns, colors, and textures first.

It's raining bits! The pieces are from Fancy Pants, Recollections, and K & Company. The lined beige paper is also from Chic Tags.

The journaling tag is from All Star by Echo Park. The sticker tab is from FarmHouse and "Papa" is from my Dymo. "Love you so much" is a stamp from Pink Paislee.

This sticker is why the layout ended up being about Papa. It matches so I slapped on! It's from MME and the banner is Basic Grey.

let's hit the road

This pile of papers was just sitting in my craft room floor waiting to be moved to the trash. It was such a pretty pile! I ended up piling it on my desk and making a layout from all those reject pieces. I think the papers are a mix of MME and Teresa Collins. The journaling card is from October Afternoon. The Kraft die cut is from Cricut. "Shine" is Heidi Swapp.
