Layout Sharing

We go on a lot of little adventures, my sweetie and I.  Last weekend we took a little hike in Onondaga State Park.  I took a lot of photos of the fall foiliage and created a one page layout.  I used the Sugar Hill Paper Line from Farm House Paper Company and Spellbinder Die S4-368 Hexagons. 

A new class . . .

I usually do not schedule classes in December, everyone is so busy and it's hard to fit a class into our already busy calendar.  This year I decided to add a Christmas themed layout to my Preserving the Past series.   Hope you like it!

Great papers from Kaiser craft, Tim Holtz stamps and doiley die from Lifestyle crafts. 

Wednesday, December 12 @ 6pm

Please bring a brown ink ( I used Archival Sepia), ruler, foam squares or tape and your basics to this class.  You will receive a complete set of letter stickers so you can personalize you layout with any date/name/etc.  Limited number of seats available for this class.  Call For Keep Sake @ 314-487-8131

Dear Blog:

Oh how I have neglected you!  I didn't mean to, I swear it's all Pinterest's fault!  I spend waaaaaaaay to much time on Pinterest but it's very educational.  I learn so about cleaning, cooking and crafting, if only I got busy doing some of those things, right? 

Today I have a layout to share . . . new My Little Yellow Bicycle.

We took a beautiful fall hike @ Rockwoods Reservation last week!  The colors were spectacular in the woods!  So glad we made time for this!
