Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Legacy of Love"

Here is my final layout of our fall family shoot of 2015. It's the whole crazy, beautiful family!

 The stitching is just drawn on...I don't have a sewing machine, but it's pretty hard to tell that it's drawn on once you get the layout in the page protector, right? Again, I've used washi tape, a border punch along the edges, and a few punches to layer up a small flower circle embellishment.

 I love this crazy bunch of people! They bring so much love and light into my life. We struggle and we fuss over issues sometimes, just like every family does, but we stick together like glue through it all.

 Here's a close up of my faux stitching....Not perfect, but I think it adds a lot to this layout.

So now you've seen them all.😲 Thanks for hanging in there with me and looking at some of the same pics in multiple layouts. Some layouts were for my grandchildren's books and some for our own.

Next up will be a few Halloween layouts.  See you soon!

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "All MIne"

Fall is back! We lost it to winter for about a week, but hopefully it's back for awhile now. Just in time for a few more fall layouts. It is my favorite time of year, so I can't help myself.

This man is my rock. He is the most patient and kind man I could ever ask for in my life. He's a wonderful husband, Dad, and PawPaw. I'm a very blessed woman to call him mine! And then there are these crazy, fun-loving, non-stop, beautiful grandchildren of ours! My cup overflows...😻

 I can't get enough of these colors and the blue distressed woodgrain background paper. It really pops the orange in the leaves and in our clothing. The banners are all random paper scraps that I've saved. My scrap container comes in handy for layouts with banners. I love when I find a bunch of patterns and colors that all work together. A little washi tape and ribbon...and done.

I think I have one more fall layout with the whole family to share with you soon...and then next up will be Halloween. :) Thanks for stopping by today.

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Happy Together"

Young love! These two are married now, but were just dating (seriously) at the time of our family photo shoot. With each family picture we took, we made sure we took one without her in it. I felt terrible doing it, but honestly, you just never know if they're going to last. If they don't last, you're likely not to hang any pictures with her in it. Yes...it happened before, so I was a bit gun shy.

 Katie was very understanding about it. Thankfully, we never had to post the pictures without her in them! We never even printed them! She's a keeper and we are so blessed with two wonderful daughter-in-loves.

 They celebrate their first anniversary this weekend!! Woot! So excited to watch them grow together in love as their future unfolds. They're so great together!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Hope you are enjoying all the layouts from this photo shoot. I'm enjoying reliving the memories as I post them.

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Penobscot Bridge"

Here's another layout from our trip to Bar Harbor, Maine a few years ago. We passed this bridge as we were travelling to and from our destination! We loved the cool architecture and the views were amazing.

 Sometimes when I post my layouts I notice something I should have done differently. I love the layout, but wish I would have skooched the letters closer together int he first word of the title. Oh well....

 Love the amazing blaze of colors against the blue sky!

Thanks for stopping by today!

One page Fall Family Layout

It's a beautiful day and starting to feel like Fall around here! Fall is my fave! I already have my house decorated and ready to celebrate the glory of Fall. There are pumpkins and gourds on my porch... I'm sure I've jumped the gun a little, but I'm not sorry! 🍂

Here's a rare (for me) one pager from the pumpkin patch. This is my oldest son and his precious family!

I love all of the typical fall colors paired with teal! The flowers in the corner are part of the paper, so this was a super simple layout! A little bit of washi and paper strips under the matted photo and that's it! I didn't really feel like this page needed a title, so I broke my "rule" and didn't add one.

Hope you are having a great week! Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
