A Night to Remember...

Have you checked out the new BoBunny line "Enchanted" and the accessories?? OMG! So beautiful. The minute I saw it, I knew what pictures I was using....Vegas baby! These pictures remind me of the fabulous time I had in Las Vegas with my sister-in-law and great friend. My favourite memories were dressing up and going out for amazing suppers (I don't get to dress up to much these days with a 2 year old..) and NOTHING says Vegas though.....than celebrating your great time on a roof top bar that overlooks the strip. A moment that I will never forget for the rest of my life :) The elegant black and white BoBunny paper line was perfect to capture our amazing night out.
In my layout I used the big flower I just learned in my last class and also created a shasta daisy using the Tim Holtz "tattored florals".....my absolute favourite die cut!! The paper layering (3 main pages) I saw on a layout at Urban. I used to layer my pages ALL the time when I first started scrapbooking a while back (when layering was very popular) and I thought I would try it again. I also added some dangling pearls from Tim Holtz as well....a perfect touch. I am actually very pleased with how this layout turned out. While photographing this layout though, I realized it is very hard to photograph black :(

Viva Las Vegas

I recently got a cricket and needless to say I am addicted. I have found you can add so much more detail and touches with it to your creations. I created this spread "Viva Las Vegas" a couple of days ago only having the pictures for a couple of years now. In Las Vegas we dined at the United States first three star restaurant "Joel Robuchon". The colours in the restaurant were the most beautiful pinks that my eyes have seen. Given this, I found the perfect pink paper to scrap with: My Minds Eye - Lost & Found (Madison Avenue "Girlfriends"). The glimmer on the pages added the perfect speck of detail that I was looking for and the roses are made out of dictionary paper that matches nicely  with the writing that is on page two.



 I learned to make these roses from classes I have been taking with Roxanne Olsen through the Urban Scrapbook Store (check out her work through my page Urban Scrapbook Classes) . I have actually learned to make many, many different kinds of paper and cloth flowers (many, many are not exaggerations). You will most likely see them through my spreads. From Roxanne, I have learned that scrapbooking possibilities are endless.
