Lauren Collage

Here is a collage I did for my cousin’s new baby. Just love using the Pink & Brown combination. I used SVG Cuts files for the butterfly, flowers and frame to the right. Frame will hold Lauren’s picture.

Used a bunch of Creative Charms embellishments on this collage. If you haven’t checked out the Creative Charms blog lately you should - some creative designers sharing their creativity!

Beach Bums Layout

I did this layout for my local scrap store, The Crop Shop, design team assignment. It uses Cosmo Cricket DeLovely line. Love the bright colors of these papers. I cut circles and used foam tape to bump them off the page a bit.




I used a sketch from a fellow Creative Charms design team member, Debbie Gaydos. Love her sketches - I pull them out everytime I do a page. Check out her sketches here on the Ally Scraps blog. Here’s a link to Debbie’s blog - she is very talented and love her style!

Anniversary Collage


I made this collage for a dear friend. She came across her Mom & Dad’s Wedding Invite from the 1950’s. It was a bit weathered so I decided to ink some of the papers in brown to match the look.

This wonderful family has 5 daughters so I did 5 pink flowers at the bottom.


I represented the grand kids on the tree.


I did the small flowers (pink for the girls) (green/blue for the boys) to represent the great grand kids. There are many more on the way so I included extras in a ziploc on the back of the shadowbox frame.

The background bracket & flowers in a row are from SVG Cuts Memory Garden & the tree is from Robins Return. Pearls are from Creative Charms.

Have a great weekend!

Another Wedding Invite Collage

I used Bo Bunny for the background of this wedding invite collage. I just love the combo of purple and green. This bride created her own invite and her coworker asked that I create this for her.

The invite was in a purple folder and the bottom horizontal strip with the “H” wrapped around the folder so I incorporated into the collage - worked perfect.


The swirly and green leaves are from SVG Cuts. Can’t remember where the bracket in the background is from - most likely SVG Cuts.

Just a few days left for the
Creative Charms Deal of the Month

Black & White Wedding Invite Collage

I am partial to black and white and I am pleased how this wedding invite collage turned out. Even my husband commented on it and he isn’t usually phased by my creations. :)

I used a great Best Creations Background paper. The brackets behind the invite are from SVG Cuts Strawberry Lane Digi Cart. The flowers for the wedding were white hydrangeas.


I used SVG Cuts Moonlight Garden Party Digi Cart to create those. Pearl accents were added to the flowers and the bracket. I used Creative Charms black gradient gems to accent along with a ribbon bow. A close up...

While you are over at the Creative Charms site check out their Deal of the Month! Projects featured on their blog.
