Are you going to Street Wheelers this weekend?
Are you scrapbooking?

My trip in photos (that I can not wait to scrapbook!)

I was on an Alaska cruise last week on Celebrity Cruises. It was a last minute thing for work. Not to shabby. I had a great time (even though it was my 2nd cruise to Alaska). I got to see a couple of new ports and totally fell back in love with ones I saw before.

I can not wait to scrapbook my photos! But for now, here is one from each port of call.

Vancouver (Stanley Park with the downtown in the background as we sailed by and then under the Lions Gate Bridge).

Ketchikan (a new port for me and a new fav! This was taken at Creek Street the old Red Light District now a quaint shopping area.)

Icy Straight Point (a new port for me and very outdoorsy)

Juneau (was here before but nice to see it again. This was my view during breakfast that morning)

Skagway (was here before but still a fav!)

Ice Ice and more ice!

Mendenhall Glacier outside of Juneau

Turner Glacier just before seeing Hubbard Glacier

Hubbard Glacier (look closely - the weather sucked that day!)

Watch soon for layouts!

A Year of Challenges

Here is your weekly Monday challenge. Sorry it is a bit late today - I slept in (a lot!).

Use bright and unusual colours for your holiday photos. Dont be typical (ie - red and green for Christmas, orange and black for Halloween, pink and red for Valentines day). I used lime greens, purples, oranges and love how this layout turned out! (sorry for the wonky scan, not sure what is up with that)

As another fun little challenge, use a play on words for your title...."lion" instead of "lying" - have fun with it!

Thanks for looking!

stuff I've been doing lately

Good morning! Are you tired of seeing my painted layouts yet? Well, I have another version for you.
This time a painted a column of paint, then stamped on it with black staz on with a circle stamp. I added a few Hambley rub-ons. I sewed right through the title.

Add a little masking tape and buttons. I suppose it isn't too crazy of a layout, but I like how it turned out. The cardstock is Bazzil, so it's got a bit of a pattern that showed up nicely where I stamped the circles.

Cool huh? Any questions? Have a great weekend!
