Back to School Layout

Hope your weekend is going great. I spent all day Friday and Saturday scrapping at a weekend away. It was so much fun! While I was away I scrapped the Back to School pictures. I used the We R Memory Keepers Albums Made Easy photo sleeves.

This one holds a 2 x 12" strip, 3 - 6 x 4" photos and 2 - 4 x 6" photos. I am totally loving the We R Memory Keepers 12x12 albums - I can fit alot of pages in them and you don't have to mess around with albums with screws. I am loving scrapping in this format.

I used some Trendy Twine to accent my page and I am entering this in their challenge. Challenge requires primary colors and BTS. I hand cut around the photo of my boys and they are holding little chalk boards with their grade.

I did the print and cuts on my Cameo - they are from Echo Park’s Paper and Glue digital collection. 

Hope you like my layout ....I have lots more to share with you.

Alright let’s get down to other business - I have lots to tell you about:

Mini Back Packs & a Pumpkin

Are your kids back to school? Here are some cute little mini back packs I made for back to school. 

I filled them with some jolly rancher candies. 

They are from the SVG Cuts ~ Back to the Books SVG Kit.

They are about 4" high. I used Echo Park's Paper and Glue and did some fun print and cuts.

Have you seen the latest kit from SVG Cuts? It is called Bedtime Stories SVG Kit.

 I made the pumpkin from the kit and plan on making the awesome castle.

Here is my pumpkin:

It has a little top that comes off. I used We R Memory Keepers Black Widow Papers. They are last year's papers (I'm picking up Bewitched tomorrow!)  I stitched the papers with black thread. I added some twine from Trendy Twine and flair from Paper Play Studios.

If you plan on picking up the kit ~ just click here!

Have a great week!

2nd BTS Teacher Gift

Hi there - hope your weekend is going great so far. Thought I'd share my second Back to School Teacher Gift. Just incase you missed my earlier one go check out my SVG Cuts Design Team Project here.

On this one I used the Echo Park Paper and Glue Digital Kit for the papers. I printed them out on my Epson 1430.

Love how you can play around with the size of the patterns for example I printed the green stripe at 100% then I printed the leaf for my apple at 25% - sorta made my own 12x12 and 6x6 version of the pattern. I also printed the one milk carton on blue paper - like having flexibility with a digital kit.

Here is a look at the full kit - you can grab it here.

I used my Trendy Twine to accent - even added a row of twine right above my bottom strip of letters. As I had my twine out thought that might be a great addition inside my holder - what teacher would not love getting a spool of twine?

Here is a bird's eye view. This uses the following SVG Cuts Kits:

Surf Shack SVG Kit

School Days SVG Kit

Spring Birdhouses SVG Kit

My not-so-crafty coworker saw my earlier post on FB and said - you are one of those Mom’s I used to hate when my son was in school :) - Oh well, hate me!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
