Many years ago, my sister (-in-law), Judy, Retired2stamp, invited me to a Stampin' Up Party. I was drawn to the 6X6 recipe card swap our local group was doing and had wanted to scrapbook too. I wasn't really interested in card making because I had witnessed my brother (in-law) Ed fold up a handmade card and put it in his pocket. I almost fainted and I didn't even make the card. But after a few parties, I was hooked and now make more cards than I had ever thought I would. My most recent passions are ATCs, tags & altered art. As you look through my blog I hope you can see how I've grown in my crafting ability!

1St Solo Road Trip

Here's another 12x12 layout I did for our Wednesday Scraplift Challenge in our Splitcoaststampers Scrapbook Group. For Aug 11th we were to scraplift Christy S so I decided to use her Pirate Party layout.

I wanted to use some type of travel DSP & of course I didn't have anything with cars or a generic map.  I finally settled on SU I Am Me DSP which has suitcases so it worked.  Christy S. used a lot of different colored mats so I was lucky there are a lot of colors in this DSP.  The base is SU Going Gray & the photos are matted in SU Real Red, So Saffron & Pool Party.  I used a couple of embellishments from Jolee's Road Trip pack.


The 2nd page used the same SU Going Gray base & coordinating DSP from SU I Am Me DSP.  The first line of the title is Sticko Alpha Large Foam Black Letters & Jenni Bowlin Vintage Shadow Sticker Letters.  The remainder of the title is from Jolee's Road Trip.  There was a catus for the "I" in Trip so I replaced it with the keys that were in the pack.  I think it worked out pretty well!





Here's what the 2 pages look like together!  I'm pretty happy that it didn't take me long to put this together!  Thanks Christy S. for a beautiful layout to scraplift!  TFL!
