Although my wrists and hands are sore, I have been squeezing in some scrapping whenever I can - it keeps me sane you know :) First up to share is my sketch & layout for My Creative Scrapbook. Here's the sketch . . .
And here is my layout. The kit was full of gorgeous, traditional themed papers for the holidays - loved it . . .
A quick close up of this fabulous Prima holly pick found in the kit - love that vintage Santa - don't you???
Another quick close-up on the border - this is the Martha Stewart Cherish punch around the border set - awesome punch people!!!!
I also have 2 layouts for Blue Moon Scrapbooking I have not yet shared yet (shame-shame on me!!!) The first is a bit of a vintage pic - that's me at 3!!!!
A quick close-up of some Cosmo Cricket goodness here - love their elements & chipboard!!!
This is a close-up showing these fun layered snowflakes - I made one long stitch for each one to look they they were hanging :)
Here's me in all my 3 year old glory (eating snow of course!!!) - Loved the Maya Road envelope tucked over the pic here!!!
I ventured in to the 2-pager world again - trying to re-create the idea of the December Daily a bit & do weekly pages instead. This was mostly created with the adorable Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather line - loved, loved, loved playing with this!!!
A close-up on the first page . . .
And the second . . .
Here is another close-up featuring the title work - LOVE those Jilllibean alphas don't you????
Alright, since it is the wee hours of the morning I must be off. As always I still have tons more to share but I am waiting on many to be posted online . . . be sure to hop over HERE on Friday - a little birdie told me a layout I created might just be featured on this FABULOUS manufacturer's blog!!!!! Happy Friday people!!!!!

Hi Julie: How adorable is your "vintage" layout! (Btw is that what i need to start calling my 80s childhood photos! :) LOL!) Cosmo Cricket is always adorable -- love how you put your own spin on it! Merry Christmas and hope the new guy arrives early!
ReplyDeleteYou are almost there, Julie!!! You always come up with such fresh, inspiring designs. I hope that you have a very merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHere's to hoping they will move up your due date and have that little man come a couple weeks early! I pushed to have Ben's due date up 2 weeks. I only had one ultra sound at the 20 wk. The tech said he was big then and it should be bumped up two weeks. Dr. did it. He was just under 9#'s when he was born. Being I am not a big person, that was a big baby! The head OB at my clinic came in and told me he should of been a c-section delivery... very glad he wasn't!! Gosh, I felt so much better after he was born and that epidural wore off!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE your pages!! You are the queen of layering! Your pages always are so perfect!!! Such a great eye for all of those little details!! GORGEOUS!
I feel your pain! I had severe carpal tunnel with my first pregnancy and I remember the pain all too well! I am truly amazed that you are able to scrap at all with that going on. Good for you! Hang in there, girl! As you already know, it's all worth it!
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear from you! I see that is the Cherished punch I had to purchase after the first time you used it. Love the December weekly LO! As always very inspiring work!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear all is going well---well, except for the wrists and the ankles.
Great 2 page, Santa and winter layouts. Hope your wrists are feeling better. Good luck my friend.
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing- when are you going to create something that I just don't absolutely love- I am sounding like a broken record here-lol! love the layers and as usual, all elements included- I sure hope that little man gets moving on his BIG journey soon, I know you are getting tired of rubbing that belly!lol
ReplyDeletebtw-I finally created a blog, maybe you'll see something you like here someday- kathscorneroftheworld.blogspot.com
Beautiful work, Julie... your sketches are awesome! I love that 2 pager, esp. Wow! And congrats on being a Pocket Chick pick!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for the remainder of your pregnancy... not too much longer!
