Jumping on the circles bandwagon

and doing it with a lift from Adele from Inky Quill.

My mojo needed a jump start and the best way I find to do that

is to do a lift that is usually not my style.

So I took a bunch of random papers and punched all kinds of different sized circles

out of and used every single one on a 8.5x11 page.

Which I have to admit was fun.

 Using the package technique with some mists I gooped it everywhere

along with some mist splatters.

 And those little flowers I had FORever and used every single

one of those too.

The titles were fussy cut from PL cards (except for the circle)

and I also had a diamond cut out that just didn't work out.

I have no idea about the triangle banner but I love it.

I really like how it turned out - its pretty and fun

at the same time.

A mix of Studio Calico, Basic Grey, WRMK, Heidi Swapp mists more or less.

Road Trip album - Set up complete

I stopped dithering about and

 decided to trim all the papers, add the pocket cards

and complete the pages and inserts

now all I need are photos, embellishments and journaling.

I think that'll take some of the guesswork

and angst out.

Plus the supplies to take on the road to complete it will be different

and not as overwhelming.

Also if there's a scrapbook shop along the way.

WIN!!!

I used the ENTIRE Tim Holtz rubon sheet.

It was annoying to rub.

Some ledger paper for journaling-mostly so I can

remember stuff to journal - as we go.

 LOTS to fill - 

This is a hodge-podge of We are Memory Keepers (Thanks Holli)

Studio Calico, Paper Issues, Basic Grey and Fancy Pants.

5th Kit from the Crop that was done at home

and Prior to leaving for NH.

Just been hanging around and doing Halloween

so I figured I'd post this.

I did sortof use some of this stuff.

 I whacked this down to 8x8 and for some

reason I punched shapes out of the paper and did

so where I had a slight chunk taken out of a corner as

it wasn't a total 8x8.

Shocking I know.

 I pieced the corner together with a coordinating sheet

 of paper and then used a creative cafe round stamp

and a flair button with some washi to highlight it.

 I used a couple more creative cafe stamps to stamp

around the page - I love that look.

Found a vellum feather that worked and used

the Basic Grey washi strips and chipboard embellies as well to ground

and accent the photo.

The clusters turned out to be really fun - using WRMK puffy dots and 

geo tags - The frame is from Paper Issues and of

course the date stamp is from Shimelle that I really need to 

learn how to work.
