We had a Masquerade Ball - and it was AMAZING! I think everyone dance a little bit - and there was a lot of fun and laughter and we got to really enjoy our time together! I'm using a lot of Creative Memories product these days. My friend used her Silhouette to cut out the shoes in the first layout.

Life has been so exciting and such a blessing! We have been "in the works" on so many changes in our lives! Ayla turned 13 - yes, that's big! The boys are busy, busy boys. James has been going through many changes in his work responsibilities. And life is good.

My take on the kit:
All Daisy D's stash. Many of these are half pieces/scraps.
Die Cuts, tags, some chipboard, and flowers, all Daisy D's.
Oh, and one more sheet of paper I threw in for the "pinwheel" look in the embellies.

The class is with Creative Passion and is teaching Smash Book ideas. Previously, we had to get our supplies together and I made this book.
We have a binding machine, so I put some scrappy paper, envies, folders, paper bags, and some page protectors together to make something "unique" for myself.

These are the final three LOs I finished with April's Counterfeit Kit. I put them together last weekend, but haven't posted because all three of them felt "not quite finished." I think the fact that I used a lot of rub-ons, (even for the titles of two of them) made it feel that way. I am more of a lumpy scrapper, and these felt . . . flat? Anyway, I decided they are as Ryannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04976776803455274535noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344757470687414432.post-86605343376927872552012-04-15T16:34:00.004-07:002012-04-15T16:53:03.182-07:00NSD - April 14, 2012Yesterday was the day my local CM consultant celebrated NSD.

Sort of. It uses all elements from my kit I put together, but when I added cardstock, it was a new piece I got at the crop I went to yesterday, so it kinda felt like I was cheating! LOL! Anyway, at least that new piece didn't sit in my stash, and it didn't cost anything - free gift for going! ;) Oh, and the ribbon was added to my kit at the end, as well Ryannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04976776803455274535noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344757470687414432.post-56312650714923523942012-04-15T16:03:00.003-07:002012-04-15T16:21:43.411-07:00Okay, I got some scrapping done yesterday!

I got a few LOs finished. Not as many as I'd hoped. I think if I'd just stuck to the Counterfeit Kit I put together, I would have gotten more done, but I had a page kit that was a challenge, and 20 other challenges to do, so the Counterfeit Kit ended up sitting most of the weekend. :( That's okay, I still managed to get a ton of stuff done and used up from my Ryannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04976776803455274535noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344757470687414432.post-23431039084670721542012-03-11T18:26:00.003-07:002012-03-11T18:29:24.712-07:00First March CK LOHere is the first LO I've done with my Counterfeit Kit.

They used this kit for their lift. Here is my take on the kit. I put together a much smaller kit this month than I did last month. I used some old Chatterbox, Shabby Princess, Scrapperdashery, DejaViews, and a few other pieces I don't know the names from. I had a few "aged" looking pieces, plus, I had several frames, words, phrases, and worn or Ryannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04976776803455274535noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344757470687414432.post-51967976832338852612012-02-23T16:05:00.009-08:002012-02-23T19:19:34.633-08:00LO Share and Counterfeit KitGot some stuff done over the "Sister's Birthday Party Weekend Crop."
