Scrappy: La Campiña

This is a layout that I created for the Scrap Our Stash May Challenge to scrap outside your box. I distressed and inked which always makes me nervous. Also, I used a ton of layering, but kept my simple style at the same time. I also dug the punch out of the bottom of my scrap bag for this layout- I love punches and they way other people use them- but I really struggle to make it work for me.

This picture was taken while in Bolivia. We went to a fabulous restaurant called La Campiña which also had a Zoological park on site. They had tons of exotic birds and several alpaca. The garden here was amazing as well!

My favorite-minus the chicken wire.

Scrappy: Home

Tomorrow I leave for a two-week trip to Bolivia. While I'm gone I'm going to miss Mothers Day, my Mamaw's birthday, my brother's graduation, and other beautiful moments. I know that I'm going to make wonderful memories while I'm traveling, but I hate that I'll miss so much time with my family.

Here is a layout about my home with my Mamaw, Papaw, and Miss Kitty. After graduating from college, I moved in with my grandparents. I love them dearly for all that they have done for me and I'm so thankful that I have them in my life!

I may be updating from the road, but I can't promise anything. I debated scheduling posts about some layouts I have created, but I decided to just take 2 weeks off.

See you in two weeks!

So Very Lucky

We had a Secret Sister Swap over at The Nook! I love shopping for others and getting a mystery package! My did I get spoiled this time! I love Basic Grey, and something about this line really speaks to me. I'm in love!!

Thank you so much whoever you are!!! You are the best secret sister!

I created this layout based on August Sketch #7 by Allison Cope at So Sketchy! I used Basic Grey paper, bling, brads, and rub ons. The so lucky tag is from ormolu which came in my prize package from So Sketchy's June contest! Love the tags! I also created hidden journaling that is tucked behind the picture. When you pull the butterfly out, you can read the journaling!!!
