"SSSD" Challenge #1: IT MUST BE HALLOWEEN!

Hi Sparkling Scrappers!

So excited for Halloween, more photos and MORE SCRAPBOOKING! This is my Halloween Fun page, for the Scrappin with Sharon and Smokey Blog Halloween contest. 


I had so much fun with this layout, because it wasn't just orange and black, I loved the bright lime and deep purple too! The picture backings were a GREAT find from Target. However, my favorite part of the page has to be the title. I traced letters from a fun font on google and then cut them out in orange fiber paper. I used some distress ink on the edges and then took a lighter to burn the edges and some shapes into the sides!

Thanks for Looking and make sure to follow Scrappin with Sharon and Smokey Blog!!!

Romantic in Wien!

Hi Sparkling Scrappers!
Another page from the EuroTrip scrapbook! Wien, which is how the Austrian's say Vienna, is one of the most picturesque places I have ever been.




I wanted to make the page really romantic just like Vienna, so I thought this paper did the trick!

Thanks for Looking!!!

Picture Perfect in Prague!

Hello Sparkling Scrappers,


This is one of my EuroTrip pages. I made this page for Prague or as they say there, PRAHA! But, what is even more exciting is that I think my photography is getting better! 





Prague was a really beautiful place and so antique looking! For this page I was able to play with the title, because I had the wonderful pictures of all the different ways to say "PRAGUE." I also used metal picture corners!

Thanks for Looking!!!!!

New Love!

Hello Sparkling Scrappers!


This is my New Love card, designed for the "Truly Madly Crafty Challenges!"
Follow them here, Truly Madly Crafty Challenges!





As you can tell, I used a purple monochromatic scheme. I added my favorite sparkly ribbon in the background on both the title and the flowers, along with the lace doily. The flowers are handmade, although really hard to see, because of the poor photo quality. I colored them in on cardstock and used clear embossing to thicken them up! I hope to eventually post a video about them!

Thanks for Looking!!!

Dublin Castle!

Good Morning Sparkling Scrappers!
This is actually one of the newest pages I have made. Unfortunately, the camera makes it look a little yellow, when it isn't.


This page is pretty straight forward. The background paper is lime green and white (difficult to see), but it definitely made the whole page pop. I contrasted the green elements with the red rose paper at the top, which I felt made it a little romantic! Finally, the red glittered chipboard letters... SPARKLE!
Thanks for looking!!!

Ciao Bella!

Ciao Sparkling Scrappers!
Here is another page from my EuroTrip Scrapbook. I loved Venice, Italy and couldn't wait to scrap about it!


One of my favorite parts about this page, is the paper! It is so European and PERFECT for Venice, beautiful, delicate, and full of culture. I cut the gondola out of the photo and attached it to the bottom of the page like we were riding on the page. I also backed the photos in black, so that they didn't get lost in the background!
Thanks for Looking!
