I'm just a simple scraper...with either to much time on my hands or not enough! Lately with 5 children...not enough! I hope you enjoy my little blog. If you do please follow along or feel free to make a comment. I love to hear other people's opinions...at least most of the time.

Camping Trip

It's been a little busy these past few weeks, so I'm a little late getting this on the blog. Cards and Layouts were done with Belle Blvd's Camped Out collection for Lila's Scrapbooking.

 Of course I had to make my own embellishments to make it a "Tracy" layout! Using the designs printed on the paper I was inspired to enlarge the flowers on card 1 and the single layout (I wrinkled the flowers on the double for more texture). I also made my own fish, hook (out of craft wire), tent and tree on the double layout. To get a color variance on the tree leaves I used a watermark pen. And, what seems to be my new favorite embellishment, a googly eye on the fish. 




Life's A Picnic!

Don’t you love it! These little ants were busy running away with your goodies when you were busy visiting with your family and friends!

Lots of little bits and pieces make this kit one of my cutest yet. Here I’ve inked the edges of the food items which give them a softer and more playful appeal. 
The eye in the front of the ant is a googly eye and the back is card stock which you'll have to draw the pupil on so I suggest using Glossy Accents which will give it a more consistent feel. Some variations you could do include using pop ups and of course glitter. 

And as always a 12”x12” uncut card stock is included so you can put your pictures on anyway you like.


Pick one up at Lila's Scrapbooking and More will supplies last!
