Welcome to my blog here at sesilcratin.com

I am so excited to share with you my layout I created using a full sheet of 8.5x11 sheet of paper and the Memories Collection from Teresa Collins Designs.

It has been a while since I have been able to craft. I recently moved my family to a new home and we are still just settling in.  So with out further ado here is the layout I created for the Blog Hop.

I loved the way the embossed base gave the exact embellishment to my layout.  I love texture and layers on my layouts.

Here is a process video of how I created this layout.  It took me 1.5 hours to complete the layout with sewing and assembling the project.

Enjoy!

Playing Catch Up - Spring Break

Wow... So much has been going on here in my little world.  I basically was on a three week spring break.  I was joking with Robert saying.... this is my birthday week so I might as well make it a four week spring break.

Because I have been so busy the last couple of weeks I will be playing catch up on some videos and creating some layouts just for me.  No assignments, no deadlines just for me.

However, I found a layout I created that I have not shared yet:

 





 

The Walk:

This is a layout that I created on things that I saw on my morning walk to get the kids from school.  I love the contrast of the colors in the photos and I wanted the photos to speak for themselves.  I kept the layout simple.  I love the way the simplicity of the layout just speaks for itself.   As you know I tend to go overboard with the embellishments but this time I was able to edit my work.

Okay. I will have more to share after this weekend.  Can not wait to share.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Coffee time.

Okay. I have a love of coffee and for a challenge I was to scrapbook about something easily taken for granted. COFFEE.

Here is a process video of my creation.

I have to laugh every time I do a process video.  My head gets in the way.

 

Supplies Used:

Studio Calico Project life journaling card - Block Party 

SN@P! Journaling cards

Stampin' Up! Naturals White Cardstock 

My Minds Eye Sweetest Thing "perfect" Best Paper

 

Thanks for stopping by. Till next time Happy Scraping.
