Digital Age

Genevieve Speegle
Ahhh, Christmas morning. 
Two little people enjoying the magic of the holiday and having fun….playing with digital devices??? 
Wow.  When did this happen?
Cousins sitting side-by-side with their iPads and iPods -too cute to pass up this photo opportunity!
I thought I would make an ironic scrapbook layout to showcase their modern toys by making the page in a Vintage style. 
I used www.picnik.com to make the picture look like a Polaroid. 

The paper I used is from Sassafras Lass.  I embellished the page with a paper doily and some handmade crocheted flowers. 
Thanks for stopping by!

Warm Christmas Memories

Genevieve Speegle
One of the wonderful things about scrapbooking is that the holidays are never really over.  You get a chance to play with the pictures and fun holiday-themed paper and embellishments long after the last Christmas gift is opened.
We had such a great time seeing the family back in Las Vegas this year.  The weather was beautiful and the time spent together was magical.

This layout was done using the new Bo Bunny Father Christmas line as well as lots of fabulous Prima flowers. 
This page was all about layers for me.  I used several layers just in the background cardstock alone and then added here and there until I found a collage that I liked (the page weighs like 5 pounds! lol).
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas season!  Have lots of fun scrappin’ those memories!

Chargers for the Win!

Genevieve Speegle
My father-in-law is a huge Chargers fan and I knew he was getting tickets to a game for his birthday, so I just had to make something football related.
So, what did I do?  I busted out my trusty ol’ Photoshop and got to work!  I found his profile picture from Facebook and then removed his head (wah, ha, ha ~ mad scientist laugh) and added it to this football picture I found in a google search.
Love it!  This picture makes me laugh every time!

DCWV = OMG!

Genevieve Speegle

For those of you who have not been to your neighborhood Michaels recently ~ you should probably print this entry so you can read it on the way before it’s too late.

Die Cuts With A View (DCWV) has released what I can only assume to be a private Michaels line (I have searched the Internet frantically for these page pads to no avail). They have about 4 or 5 lines of fabulous new paper packs! I was there the other day and went NUTS! I literally bought one of everything (I’m glad I did, too, since the store by my house is now out of stock!)

I remember sitting at every red light on the way home, flipping through each stack. Glittery pages beaming off the car beside me. Drivers looking confused and blinded by the brilliance.

The layout above is one of the new lines (The Family Collection). I really wanted to use this paper, so I had my son and his faithful side-kick pose on the couch (don’t act like I’m the only one here who takes pictures based on what paper/embellishments I want to use!) 

I simply added my photos and some Prima bling ~ easy as pie!

Here are some of my favorite pieces so far:
