A Boy's Only Layout

Good morning everyone! Emily here with a layout that I created using the adorable Boy's Only Collection by Doodlebug

If you have a little boy, or ever have the opportunity to scrap a little guy, or heck, even your own grown up guy, then this is the perfect collection to use! 

I had these adorable pictures of my nephew Aiden from last summer in my photos and thought they would work perfectly with the papers. This is the same collection that I used to make the banner for a friend's son's birthday party, HERE

The alpha's are little pennant stickers by Doodlebug, as well as the jewels used on the punched out circles. I adhered the alpha pennants to Doodle twine and attached the banner with some brads. You could create the same effect with triangles cut out of patterned paper or cardstock on twine as well. 

Below are a couple of close ups of the layout... 



Thank you so much for stopping by! I'll see you soon with another share!!

Romantic Layout using BG's Kissing Booth Collection

Good morning, Emily here with a layout share using Basic Grey's Kissing Booth Collection which you can currently find 40% off in the Happy N Scrappin' store!! Now would be the time to buy this romantic collection for all of those love filled photos you have yet to scrap!  

I've had photos of my boyfriend's brother's wedding laying around for a while, and every now and then I like to scrap one or two of them. I'm thinking I will eventually put all of the layouts into an album for Kraig (my boyfriend's brother) and his wife, Lauren. This is a photo of Lauren that I absolutely love! She is looking out of a window in this old historic house that they were married in. It was a beautiful wedding even though it rained. 


I used a sketch from the Pencil Lines book to make this layout. I love my Pencil Lines book. It is a great place for me to go when I am stuck on what to do with a layout. 


Thanks for stopping by today... hope you have a great week! I'll see you soon with another project!

Simple card using Doodlebug's Colorwheel Collection

Hello Happy N Scrappin' friends! Emily here today with another project I created using the Colorwheel Collection by Doodlebug

Today I have a simple card I made using scraps, a flower, a button, some ribbon and twine. 


Cards like this are quick and easy to make, but look great! Simple layering can really make an impact on your cards. 

I also took my sketch pen and added some hand stitching around the edge of the card. You could also use the We R Memory Keepers Sew Stampers for this. I have some of them and they are AWESOME!! 


Thanks for stopping by! I'll see you next week for some more projects using the great supplies found in the store!!

Sunny Days Summer Mini Album from We R Memory Keepers

Here is a fun idea for a summer keepsake album. Use the 6x6 Chipboard for the base of your album and then decorate with the BOARDWALK collection from
(Best thing it is 25% off in the HAPPY N SCRAPPIN store)

These are some of my very favorite tools from 
that I use almost daily

The CINCH tool allows you to punch perfect holes without having to use an awkward measuring tool. This means no more lopsided or almost-round holes for your projects. The Cinch version 2 also allows you to punch up to 20 sheets of copy paper at once—great for putting together multiple keepsakes to give as gifts.
Here is a video to help you learn how to use the 


And here is my very favorite trimmer - 
so many blades all in one trimmer


Watch this video tutorial and I am sure you will love it too !!!!


The 18" Scalloped Magnetic Cutting Mat & Ruler 
are a must for your craft desk !!!
Have fun shopping over at HAPPY N SCRAPPIN !!!!

Colorful Canvas using Doodlebug Colorwheel Collection

Hello there friends! Emily here today to share a canvas I created for my house using the Colorwheel Collection by Doodlebug. I used quite a few products that you can find, right in the Happy N Scrappin' store! This canvas is super simple to make, just by cutting some papers up. 


I find that scraps work really well when creating canvases such as this. I use a lot of them when I do this kind of a project. A drawer of my desk has been converted to a scrap paper holder which I always head to first when working on a project. 

I used the scraps leftover from previous projects with this collection to create the sky, grass, tree leaves and little house. Some other embellishments were added along with acrylic paint, stamps, rubons and corrugated cardboard. 

Below are some close ups. 







What do you think? Not so bad for something made with a bunch of scraps, right? 

Be sure to join me again later in the week for another project!!
