LM 618 - Out of your comfort zone - tools

This month at Lasting Memories, we are going out of our comfort zones.  This week, we are using tools that are collecting dust.

I decided to pull out my cricut, since I haven't used it in ages!  I found this adorable pumpkin hexagon cut file and I knew I had the perfect photo to use with it!

Supplies:

Woodgrain paper by CTMH

Patterned papers by Carta Bella

Cut file by Wild Pilot (Silhouette Design Store)

Letters by Thickers 

September Challenge YOUrself

 This month at Challenge YOUrself, we are celebrating good times!

I created a layout for our Easter Brunch 2021.  We made the announcement that we were pregnant with our first baby (that's my nephew in the picture with us).  

Supplies:

Papers by Authentique

Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher

Heart Wood Veneer by CTMH

Enamel Dots by Echo Park

September Stick it Down

Here's this month's sketch at Stick it Down: 

I created a layout with photos from my baby shower thrown by my Mom.  It was beautiful and Parisian themed.  How cute is that invitation?!?  

I have always loved Paris - I visited there when my husband and I were dating.  I even have a pink Parisian bathroom in my home.  This shower was SO me!

I am assuming the eiffel tower and name were cut with a cricut, but they were the topper on my diaper cake so I had to put them on the layout!  I also used some of the confetti from the tables on my page.

I had so many pictures that I added some into a pocket page too!

LM 615 - Out of your comfort zone

This month at Lasting Memories, we are going out of our comfort zones.  This week, we are using colors we don't like or rarely scrap with.

I chose orange, since it is not my favorite.  I decided to create a Halloween layout and I found these adorable photos of my cats, Oliver (left) and Rosie (right).  

Supplies:

I've had this paper in my stash for years (I don't know the maker - sorry!)
