SPCS - Try it Thursday

I did this LO for the SPCS Try it Thursday challenge which was to use patterned paper as your LO background. I ended up suing 4 6x6 papers and then I hand-sewed in-between them. Crazy talk for me :P

Anyway, this is the only pic I had from a rather memorable - and crappy - day a couple summers ago. So, despite the picture of my 2 friends being terrible, I decided to use it any way. The long story of my horrible day will go on a tag in the MR envelope.  I also went out of my way to use some older stash items.

Supplies: Bazzill CS, Authentique PPs, Fancy Pants Rub-ons, Marcella by Kay epoxy letters, MM glitter alphas, Prima and Artsylicious flowers, Artsylicious and Recollections buttons, MR envelope, MM journaling note, Colorbox ink, Embroidery floss

Sweet Peach Crop Shop - Try It Thursday - 3 Ribbons

This is my final carnival LO... thinking I should have done one LO and a mini-book :P  Anyway, this LO had 3 ribbons on it as per the Try It challenge at SPCS. The ribbons are from Joann's, Michael's, and unknown from scrapbook Expo. CS is from Archives; papers are EP. Buttons and flowers are Sassafras and letters are CM alpha sticker, EP stickers, and Karen foster epoxy. Also used Making memories adhesive labels

Sweet Peach Crop Shop: Try it Thursday - Quilting

I've been meaning to join in on the Try it Thursday fun over at Sweet Peach Crop shop's blog; but, I always lose track of the time. But, I finally did it this time! Now, this is not strictly quilted- there is no sewing here - not even faux. But, I think the squares of paper mixed with photos still manage that patchwork quilt look. I love all the bright and happy paper squares mixed with the fun photos which were taken at the same birthday party and playground as my LOs from last week.

Anyway, I used SEI Happy Birthday papers along with a couple of the matching die-cuts, AC Thickers, KI word tiles that have been in my stash for a looooooooong time, MM brad, eyelet outlet eyelet and Uniball Signo white gel pen as well as random CS from my stash (probably Archivers)
