Finally posting Day Crop pages

Back in September I attended a Day Crop. I got to finish up some long over due pages from my Brother and Sister-In-Laws Destination Hawaii Wedding...
I had given them the album with 12 of the 22 pages I completed back in June 2013 when we went back to visit in NJ. The pages in this post that had adjoining pages will be linked to the original posts. Click on those to check them out! If you use the "Labels" on the sidebar and Click "Wedding" it will pull up the rest!

Here is Page 8: Used the flowers from CTMH Extreme Happiness Stamp Set. Stamped and Fussy cut them.

Page 9: Toasting after the ceremony.

"Hang Ten" is page 12 was posted back in April of 2013. Click here to see!

Page 13 I used a Beach Wedding sticker from a Jolee's set to help form the stitched circle. Accented with Little Yellow Bicycle Naturals, a stamped cork piece and buttons. I left my stitching gear home so I still have to finish the circle.

Next is Page 14, which is Mother/Son page:

Stamped lines using a journal ledger stamp using White Pigment Ink on the Chocolate Cardstock. Accented with some Burlap. Also used the CTMH Extreme Happiness stamp and fussy cut the flowers.

The adjoining page Father/Son for Week #14 of the Liftateers Challenges in Jan. 2013. Click here to see! I added another photo to the page, but never took another photo of it before sending it to my Brother and Sister-In-Law!

Next is a double page LO, pages 16-17 was from a Goofy Photo Shoot on the Beach. The pictures were dark so I had a hard time trying to brightening them up while still using the same color theme.

Page 18 is another adjoining page that used more bright photos from the beach photo shoot. Click here to see the one I created back in Jan 2013.

Page 19 using the same stickers and accent pieces.

Page 20 -21: Individual Beach Shots and A Picture I need to enlarge.

Close-Up of the Fussy Cut Flowers

I still have to blow up the picture for the next page.

I wanted it to say "Always Kiss Goodnight" from the start of my creative process...Of course I couldn't find the saying at the crop and found Sweet Kisses which fit just as good! FYI: If your looking for that saying, "Always Kiss Goodnight" it is on the Wall Decals Cartridge.

I cut out the saying using the flocked paper at first but it was too busy. So I cut it out again using Kraft cardstock inked it up with Desert Sand ink, but kept the first letters in flocked.

Final Page in the album...

So happy that I am only 2 pages left to finish. Then it is on to my 3 month old nephews pages!

Liftateers - Week #12 & #14

Using the Liftateers Week #12
Here is mine, called Here comes the Bride

I am trying to keep the colors of Christine's theme and flowers through out. Used CTMH Pear, Cotton Candy, Chocolate & Cocoa inks.

Week #14

I do have another full body photo of my Dad and Brother without the hi-jinks I may add over top of the tiki hut. Since the opposite page is planned to use two photos of my Mom and Brother. No hi-jinks through it's more of a Motherly love type shot.

May add Hawaii under the word Destination and Flower

Paper Secrets SYAO Round 2 - Week #39

39th Layout Done!
I have to say if I wasn't pushed with these challenges each week. I think my vacation photos would still be sitting in a pile!
Used: some type of cork, 7 + Patterned Papers, Burlap, Rub-ons on my photos
Techniques: Machine Stitching

 Burlap, Machine Stitching and a few of those Patterned Papers

Burlap, Machine Stitching, Cork and Rub-on that did go well!

Machine Stitching, Cork, some of those 7+ Patterned Papers and a so-so Rub-on!

I  don't know if anyone else has experienced the love hate relationship with Rub-ons, but this was one of those experiences. Not sure if it was because the photos were glossy or what. All were from the same set an some came out fine while others just stunk!

The Best out of 3 rub-ons I used!

Finally, Here is my full page from our trip to Arkansas back in 2008.
