I'm sorry to be MIA for long time. I had a major flu and still not quite 100% but on way of recovery. I've three layouts to share that I did for a swap at Two Peas.
I use Allison Davis sketch book volume 8 for these layouts--some of them were changes slightly.
this one is Outdoor theme-I chose a very simple layout of just playing outside can be use for kids or yourself of spending time outside. I originally pick the plaid pattern paper for school theme but as I was looking thur the pictures of my kids playing outside. I thought the paper was perfect for this. the orange is SU tangerine orange, i use small strip of polka dot orange for borders. Red and dark cardstock is from SU of title and subtitle area. I use black twine and brads to tie all the colors together. Light yellow is where the picture would go in various sizes. I discover SEI 4 x 6 journal cards. I use one of them and just trim it down. I use AE stamps for my title and subtitle...
this is for family theme-I chose this chevron pattern paper for girly theme-such as sweet baby girl, grandma, or any girl relate theme. I love the colors of those paper. I use SU brown cardstock for background, dolly was rak I won last year. Yellow embellishment (flowers) were from Walmart section--I want to say Jolee but not sure. the journal box is from SEI 4 x 6 yellow cards.
