Lancaster September layouts





Here are the September layouts. The first one is with the new Perfect Day paper pack. It's Imagine Monologue and calls for two 6x4 photos, one 4x6 photo and two 3.5x3.5 photos. BUT, there were a few more pictures of Bryce and Leo playing so I made expandable (inspired by the ever talented Nona Davenport) photo mats to get more pictures on the layout. (The 4x6 mat on the right page is expandable also).
The second page is my example of the Random Stamping we are going to be doing in honor of National Stamping Day. For those of you that don't want blue, orange, yellow, and green circles, I'll have 2 other examples for you to choose from. I just haven't taken pictures of them yet. Because we'll be making our background paper, please bring your trimmer to the club meeting.
Supplies used Layout 1: Perfect Day paper pack, September Word puzzle, coco grosgrain ribbon, clear buttons, colonial white bigger brads. Ink: Tulip, Juniper
Supplies used Layout 2: white daisy card stock, Friendship Word Puzzle, Serendipity, Angel Whispers, Star Struck stamp sets. Inks: Sunny Yellow, Orange, Topiary, and Dutch Blue

I love this layout!!!!!!


After blog-hopping one day on a fellow CTMH sister's blog (Yvonne's blog), I came across A Page 4 All Seasons. I immediately fell in love with Shyloh and her company. Shyloh and her team have predesigned (and precut) layouts that you can purchase, using the latest and greatest products from a variety of different companies.
I know, it's shocking that I'm not a CTMH "purist." ha ha ha. Anyhoo, I saw this layout and thought of my favorite wedding picture and how wonderful it would go in it, so I ordered it. AND, I wound up subscribing to one of her autoships. For the very reasonable price of $25 per month, I get not 1, not 2, but 3 two-page layouts shipped to me. No going to the store, no thinking about what to do. Basically, I get to be like all my club members and have the work done for me. And, you know what??? I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
I'm sure you all are asking why I'm advertising for someone else, but I think there's room for everyone. Shyloh's having a contest right now. Anyone who posts on their blog about her company is entered into a drawing. AND, people that get comments get 2 entries into the contest. I'd love to win some more of her great layouts so, comment away. (Maybe I'll post more if you do!)

The second Lancaster page


For once, I wasn't the one behind the camera, amazing! Anyway, the second August layout is with Let's Get Together (one of my personal favorite paper packs) and are Reflections layouts. The left side calls for one 5x7 and two 4x6 photos. The right side can be turned any way you want. I have two 6x4 photos and one 3.5x5 photo.
