Go-Karting Layout

Chris has been promising the kids for a few holidays now to take them Go-Karting and finally these last school holidays we did!

 

As Mikaedy was too small to drive her own kart, she got to ride with Chris and Ben got his own kart. Well, lets just say it might be a few years until we take Ben back. Being in control of a moving object was a little daunting for him and his ride was memorable, yet slow.

 

I was on the sideline taking snaps (couldn't miss the opportunity to scrap it!).

Cheaper Than Therapy Submission # 18

For this layout I have gone with a Christmas theme. I have chosen Stampin' Up's! new Christmas DSP papers "Letters To Santa" and used the new Stockings Punch to create a border of stockings hanging from the mantle. So cute and this punch is so versatile, wait til I show you the hobby horse birthday card I have made with it as well (cased from Gemma Graham). This punch and the co-ordinating stamp set will be available to purchase in Stampin' Up's! Summer Mini Catalogue, being released on the 1st December 2011.

Anyway, back to this week's submission, here is a reminder of the layout:

And here is my layout, I turned it into a double page as 4 photos just don't cut it for Christmas day!

Hope you like it:

Ok, couldn't help but add my cute birthday card. I have used the stocking punch and the Christmas DSP, so this makes even the Chrissy paper just as versatile as the punch. I've just spotted another cute card using the punch, I might just have to have a play with that one too. (Have I made you realise how 'necessary' this punch is yet? lol)

Cheaper Than Therapy Challenge # 8

Here is this week's submission for Challenge # 8. I have used Stampin' Up's Love Letters DSP, along with Riding Hood Red and Basic Black cardstock. It will look great with black and white photos. The ladies are doing this layout in this Thursday's day workshop and next fortnight's night workshop. Their wedding and baby photos are going to look great on this layout. I have done the same layout in Pacific Point and Real Red with Celebrations DSP, which will look super cute with pre-school or kindy photos. I just love how different papers completely change the look and theme, yet it's still the exact same layout.

Cheaper Than Therapy # 4 Submission

I thought I would struggle using Stampin' Up's Silhouette Sentiments stamp set on a scrapbook layout, but in the end, it was really easy. I must admit, I did take inspiration from a scrapbook pagemap from Becky Flek for this one, so that did help. Here it is:

Adele & Rach, what was your inspiration?
