Welcome to Scrapbook Sunday! Last week I posted about "getting creative" and coming up with hand-made things to add to your scrapbook pages. I went through another one of my oldest son's albums and found MORE CREATIVE things, done by MOI! Yay, I may have a knack for this sort of thing:)The layout above is from when Gavin was 5 and went on a field trip to a local Woods; to learn about trees and how they are tapped for maple syrup! The idea of making the paper tree came from one of my Creative Memories page layout books; I cut the tree out by hand and punched out some maple leaves with my Leaf Punch, then added various spring stickers- such as the birds, worms, and flowers! It came out waaaay better than I though it would!
This layout was from a field trip to Domino's Pizza when Gavin was in Pre-K. Each child got to make their own pizza, and his came out YUMMY! As I was doing this layout, I was irritated that I didn't have any pizza stickers! 'Cause as I admitted previously, I AM A STICKER JUNKIE!! LOL So, the creative part of my brain spoke up and said, "Duh, make a DOMINO!!" So I just punched out two red squares and added the dots and cut a blye rectangle and wa-la...
a Domino's Pizza domino was born!!
For this layout, I just cut ovals from my Custom Cutting System and added various punched circles, waves, and the top egg was done using the CM Bubble Maker!
This layout still CRACKS me up! One Sunday, Brian, Gavin and I were sitting around and we had the idea of dressing our cat Maddie up in Build-A-Bear clothes!! Being that Maddie is a "ditzy" cat, she had no clue what the heck we were doing to her, so she just laid there and let us play dress up!! LOL Then she began to roll around on the floor trying to get the clothes off! By the way, we are BIG Cub's fans in this house:)
I made my own baseballs by punching out circles, then drawing the red "seams" by myself. They did come out pretty cute!
Again in the midst of having NO Dalmation stickers for this page... I thought to punch out a bunch of black dots and scatter them all over the page. When Gavin was 4 and 5, he was obsessed with playing dress up at school; the little girls LOVED him for this. He was in his dalmation doggie garb on the day I visited his class and volunteered!! What a NUT!!
