♥ life is good October Afternoon Travel Girl ♥

good morning!  how are you?  how was the weekend?  we had a great one with lots of much-needed family time. i was happy to be asked by mandy koeppen to participate in her scrap's challenge this week. it was so fun, and i had a PILE of itty bitty scraps from cards and projects as you can see below!

here's my scrap pile

and here's the layout i created with it

life is good layout

(yes, for a YEAR, every time i took this child's picture he would give me "funny face" and there's a LOT of different "funny faces")

 i wish i would've counted exactly how many different pieces, strips or block of scraps i used but it was fun to "quilt" them together

 this stack of suitcases may be one of my most favorites embellishments, i just love it!

 

 finding a home for even the punched shapes in my scraps pile

 i love all the embellishments in this line they are layered and lots of fun to play with!

 i hope you will pop in and say "hello" on the October Afternoon blog and see mandy's scrap pile and inspiration.  and PARTICIPATE in the challenge and share it in our OA FLICKR Gallery

thank you so much for your kind words and visits, it means the world to me!

hugs!

♥ confetti pocket tutorial ♥

Hi!  Today is my day to post over on the OA Blog and it happens to be Tuesday which means....a tutorial!  I have shared a tutorial, and hopefully answered some of the questions I've received, about how to create the confetti pockets in some of my recent projects.

 

Here are some recent projects with the confetti pockets

birthday gift card/cash holders created with OA Cakewalk Here & Now pages and embellishments

  confetti pocket gift tag created with the new OA Midway line for CHA

confetti pockets from my recent Woodlank Park mini album

The pockets are really fun and you can fill them with anything you'd like for any kind of project.  I hope you'll stop by the OA Blog to see the tutorial and post your pockets.

happy creating♥
