tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-122474012011-04-21T13:48:23.447-04:00This is a blog for my scrapbook pictures and other crafty-like things. I started cross-stitching when I was 8 years old, and things kind of devolved from there. I didn't start cropping until Dec. of 2003, after my first child was born.Scrappygrrlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13837485567542762627noreply@blogger.comBlogger21100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247401.post-1113792999802492612005-04-17T22:48:00.000-04:002005-04-17T22:56:39.803-04:00And here are my favorites from Jessie's book. It's nearly done, I just need to do a 'Firsts' page, her 12 month pictures and her 1st birthday. And then I'll likely come up with a 'mommy's girl' page and one for my mother and her as well, but... the majority of it is done. ;)<br /><br />Birth Mementos:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/jesmemento.jpg"><br /><br />When you wish upon a star:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/jes1month.jpg"><br /><br />Cute as a Button:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/button.jpg"><br />Likely my favorite layout, even if it is tres' bulky in the book.<br /><br />I love my Toes!:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/toes.jpg"><br /><br />Across the Generations:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/generations.jpg"><br /><br />Baptism layout 1:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/jesbap1.jpg"><br />I actually reproduced her dress in vellum with an embossing stylus. Looks way cool. The framed photo in the bottom right is a card with journaling and more pictures inside.<br /><br />Baptism layout 2:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/jesbap2.jpg"><br />Again, same frame - it's a card. My mother has written something to her in there.<br /><br />First Foods:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/jesfood.jpg"><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12247401-111379299980249261?l=scrappygrrl.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Scrappygrrlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13837485567542762627noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247401.post-1113789152662231512005-04-17T21:42:00.000-04:002005-04-17T22:15:34.596-04:00Okay, so I was bored tonight, and beacuse a couple of people at LJ were interested, here are some of my favorite layouts.<br /><br />Unfortunately, I love all the ones for Liam's book so far, so here goes:<br /><br />Title page:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/liamtitle.jpg" /><br />The border on the left is made of 22 gauge silver plate wire. The beads are sterling blocks that spell out Liam's name, with Swarvski blue crystal block beads as the spacers. Now you know why I want to make Swarovski rosaries for the kids for their confirmations. ;)<br /><br />First Day:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/firstday.jpg" /><br /><br />Precious Boy:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/preciousboy.jpg" /><br />The free blue space is a pocket that I'm going to tuck some journaling in, and stencil some words across the bottom of it.<br /><br />Halloween:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/liamhalloween.jpg" /><br /><br />Valentine's Day - 3 Months:<br /><img src="http://kelley.vanceconsulting.com/scrapbook/liamvday.jpg" /><br />The framed photo on the right is actually a card that has journaling inside it.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12247401-111378915266223151?l=scrappygrrl.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Scrappygrrlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13837485567542762627noreply@blogger.com3
