2009 Favorites


I am really enjoying seeing the posts of other artist's favorite layouts, so I thought I would do one of my own. I don't think I could possible pick 10 favorites for the whole year, partially because I got a new computer and don't have many of the photos handy anymore! :) But here are a few of my all-time favorites, all created in 2009.

I like this one because it is elegant and the colors are muted, which is unusual for me. It took hours of shuffling things around, but I love the end result:

This one is on the list because not only is it fun and funky, but it is my favorite boy layout of the year. Since I like lots of detail, I have a harder time with the boy-themed pages.

This one is a favorite also for several reasons. The detail, the photo, and the fact that I scrapped a baby photo of my now 4-year-old. It was fun!
This one, I just think is gorgeous. I love Prima products, and I surprised myself with how well this one came together.
This is me, fun, funky, and lots of detail.
This one was one of my earlier favorites. I created this one in March, and it was the very first time I succeeded in adding all of the detail I wanted to see in a layout.
Happy New Year!

Christmas is over...


Well, the big day is over, the lazy weekend has passed, and now it is back to work. Well, not totally for me, since I cleaned my house top to bottom yesterday and did all the laundry too! In a few hours the kiddos and I are heading to the library for a couple hours of play and fun, and then back home for an afternoon for working on my projects for the Couture Cardstock CHA booth.

Speaking of Couture Cardstock, here are a couple more projects that I did for them:

Using Vintage Christmas:


And using a Girl's Best Friend (All the papers are mirror or metallic, although it's hard to show in a photo:


Hope your Monday is wonderful!
