Drive by Safari - Two Page Scrapbook Layout

 During May 2020, when Covid was still pushing hard, a local organization created a drive by Safari. We grabbed the grands and took a little cruise through the parking lot at all of the farm animals, along with a few more exotic creatures.

There wasn't a lot to look at, but it was still fun to get out with the kids and just do something! We were not allowed to get out of the car. It seems a little silly now since everything was outside with lots of ventilation, but we obeyed the rules.

I used an older pack of patterned paper for the background and found some coordinating strips of paper in my scrap folder. The flower embellies are newer to my stash but coordinated perfectly. I could have gone with a more kiddy type zoo paper, but I just wasn't feeling that for this layout.
The kids had fun and we stopped for breakfast at one of our local diners that was still open. 
I'm loving the purple safari title and the hat that I cut with my Cricut. I topped it with a cute little natural button from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by my layout! Have a crafty week!

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Live Laugh Love"

Today is our 31st wedding anniversary! I'm still crazy about this guy! He's the best gift the Lord ever gave me. These pictures are from two years ago!
 Trust me...our marriage is not perfect, but we continue to make it a priority and to love each other unconditionally. He's definitely the better half!! Our retired racing greyhound, Riley, even got in on the action.
 These were all selfies. We set up a tripod and set the timer on the camera. I think they turned out pretty well, and we had fun doing it.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!!! Come back soon. :)

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Purple Mayhem"

Are you ready for some purple? My son was part of a men's a cappella group called Note to Self at Ball State. The whole family went down to watch one of their performances called Purple Mayhem. Whenever our two boys get together they get a little goofy.
 Oh man...the girls were swooning with my two handsome boys showing off their modeling poses.
 The paper is Teen Angst. I've had this stack forever and have enjoyed it immensely. It's edgy, bright colors with metallic accents are pretty fun. Since both my boys are sporting facial hair, I thought a mustache would be appropriate, along with the mustache washi. Super silly!
These two crack me up and I can't get enough of them. They've grown closer now that my oldest is married and out of the house, and it's fun to see them goofing off.
My youngest is now graduated, but Note to Self lives on and is becoming more well known in the world of a cappella.

Thanks for stopping by today!! Have a wonderful weekend.
