These two also feature the latest goodies from Scrappy Chic, namely the Celebrate collection from Authentique. Here, I'm celebrating a new Design Team year -- check it:
Aw, ain't we cute? I wanted to use a PageMaps sketch that's kinda been stuck in my head (it's one from January if you'd like to go hunting), and I also wanted to break out a bit of stash in addition to my new goodies. In this case, I went with some tiny clothespins from Canvas Corp. that had been sitting in a jar since I won them a year ago or more -- oops!
(other supplies: May Arts twine, AC Thickers, tiny attacher)
I think this picture is hilarious. From what I can tell from my first time meeting these ladies, this is a pretty good representation of their personalities :) Looking forward to checking out their creations all year long.Since I had a good mess going already, I thought I'd whip up a second quick layout:
Different, no? Very manly. Aside from the background, I used mostly scraps to document my husband's favorite watch. An odd subject, maybe, but he really loves this watch, and I really love this picture. (I also love the potty people paper, by the way -- reminds me of a certain stamping pal of mine). Also, if I may get design-y for a minute, I like the way the strong diagonal line in the photo leads the eye to both the journaling in the top corner and the buttons in the bottom. Meant to do that. Yep.

I even used my twine scraps to thread those buttons. Not easy -- that May Arts twine is thick! Pretty, though.Anyway, that's it for my DT creations this month -- next month we'll pick up speed, since CHA goodies are pouring into the store now. (Don't forget: you can keep tabs on what's coming in on the store blog here.) I grabbed some fun Dear Lizzy papers and stamps the other day, and I can't wait to break 'em out.
After the dang essays. Blergh.
Have a lovely evening!

Essay grading -- boo! These layouts, yay! Potty paper people -- HA!
I can't fully express how much i LOOOOOVE that top layout! I mean they are both awesome but the pics hanging off the line with the close pins, and the dots.....incredible!!
Grading essays, yuck. Plow through those babies and get back to scrapping! Love the clothes line and the shot of your husband's watch.
You equate potty people with me? LOL My eyes went to them right away. I can't help but love these layouts with their fabulous patterns and colours. Also, great photos, fun thickers and mini clothespins make these totally awesome!
