Inspired By

Hey everybody!
Hope you all had a great Sunday. It was non-stop busy around here! We are beginning our master bath (total gut & remodel) in the morning, so today was spent clearing the room out & getting ready for our contractor to show up bright & early. I will post before & after pictures when it's done. And I hope it's a quick project!! I do not like sharing a bathroom with the kids!

I want to quickly share a layout that I did for my challenge over on the forums at Memorable Seasons. It is to take inspiration from this picture & create a layout or card:

  Here is my layout:

I took my inspiration from the texture in the picture. I used burlap, sequins, a flocked number & twine. I love the pink woodgrain paper from Fancy Pants & the blue chevron paper almost matches the fabric on her pillow exactly!
I would love it if you had the chance to play along! Link up over on the forum  for a chance to win a gift certificate to Memorable Seasons.

I also have forgotten to share pics of the kids from Halloween! Leah was a pirate & Ty was the grim reaper:

    

They both had a great time, but Ty, as usual, tuckered out before anyone & wanted to head home. So Drew took him home about 30 minutes before everyone else was done!

And one last layout before I hit the sack for the night: 

 This layout was made using Elle's Studio papers & tags.

The photo is from Tyler's 2nd birthday! (He will be 7 in January!!)

Thanks for dropping by!

Stay scrappy : )
