Masking using my Glue Glider refill!

I have been wanting this stamp from Close To My Heart for a while.

So, When my son had grabbed a Glue Glider Refill  I finished using and ended up dropping it. I got to see the insides! I had a challenge that was in my to do list using masking on your Layout. The light bulb lit up!

I only masked twice. So, it was going to be trail and error. Plus, I only currently own two mists. Yeah, I wrote currently own! Anyway, my first attempt was using my Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Chalkboard in Hot Chocolate. Here is what I got:

I wasn't sure what pictures I was using yet and was thinking about something with my son. It was OK, but I wanted more definition. So, my next attempt was using Maya Mist - Antique Bronze metallic and I changed a few of the pieces from my Glue Glider too! Here is the results:

I also have a bunch of Alpha Stickers my Scrappy Friend gave me. So, I stuck them on a piece of plastic wrapping I had and misted them too! I found the papers wanted to use from my Memorable Seasons kit. Here is my final project:

If It's Groovy: SUGAR COOKIE: Jen T

Check out my Scrappy Friends layout! I love it! I am thinking Becky/Luke with Oreos...

If It's Groovy: SUGAR COOKIE: Jen T: "Jen T appropriately named her layout I Heart My Family. What a great looking family she has too! Let's take a look at how pretty they look o..."

Finally some scrap time and Challenges

So, I have to complete two Challenges:
First, by tonight Jen T's Throwdown Challenge
For this weeks throwdown challenge my main ingredient is USING ALL PATTERNED PAPERS FOR THE PAGE INCLUDING MATTING. my special seasonings are going to be using a PINCH OF STITCHING AND A DASH OF SPARKLE OR BLING somewhere on your page.
I couldn't get Jen's SAMPLE layout to post right. Here is Mine:

Needs a little something more, but it is not coming to me right now. What to add?

Second, tomorrow the Happy Hour Sketch Challenge #1
not sure of the completed details, but got this to go on for now. And now a hint about this week's sketch: You will want to have two 4x6 photos ready, preferably vertical, however, you could flip the sketch to use the horizontal if you wanted. And you already should know that it needs to be "love" themed....either your paper, the photos or something you can add to the page. You are going to LOVE this sketch!!!

Both are through Memorable Seasons.
 Will post what I come up with soon!

If It's Groovy: Do You See a Little Trend?

If It's Groovy: Do You See a Little Trend?: "Have you noticed the little trend that I first spotted once I saw this really precious layout shown today by Jen T? It's there! Look closel..."

What an awesome Scrappy Friend I have!

My Scrappy Friend told me about an awesome deal she got and happen to be heading out to the store again. Since I was home with the kiddos and no truck. She called me and picked up these:

They all came to $80......I am so excited to play a few of these have been on my wishlist for a while. Plus, That fact that I had no chance of getting these if it wasn't for my Scrappy Friend..... (Snow, No truck and kiddos.) THANK YOU!
