CHA Prep Sample Work

Hi friends,

Just popping it to share some stuff I have been working on. Never a dull moment around this house As most of you know CHA is coming up...yayay...and this year my boss has decided to get a booth for her second company she owns with her fiance, Custom Scrapbook Stuff, (a little background on Custom Scrapbook Stuff: They sell custom designed 12x12 scrapbooking paper. It is very popular for schools, weddings, baby showers, etc. You would pick out your template and then choose your colors and type in what you want it to say, for example Nooksack Valley Pioneers (that is the school and mascot I went to) or I could put Phoenix 06/05/2005 (my oldest sons birth annoucement), etc you get the point...make custom paper specific to what you want.) So just to show you how fun and cute the paper is here are some samples I made...and if you are going to CHA you can get up close and personal too! Check them out in the "New" section :)

(NOTE: So apparently my scrapbook layout pictures are not nearly as good as my card ones, so note to self...PRACTICE those photography skills! If anyone has some good advice to share on getting the best pictures of your layouts and being able to crop them without looking funny or crooked, I really NEED it!!!)

Here are two layouts I made using the custom I {heart} California paper. I embellished with some cardstock, glitter borders, flowers, SRM stickers, Twine,feathers, and more. These pictures were take when my Grandma and little brother(shown in the bottom picture :) ) came for a visit. I have had every intention of "scrapbooking" with them but have done nothing and they came in April!!

My husband used to be in the Coast Guard and of course, once again was supposed to do an album for him, but so far I have been just collecting supplies...one day...BUT right now, sad note we lost most all of his military pictures and need to find a way to recover them! We found these two, but they were small images so look a little fuzzy, oh well they still look good and he is still my superhero :)

For all the next samples I created a wedding themed set and cut the paper apart to do favors (a banner that is not shown cause I am still working on it) I used the SRM pillow boxes and SRM square boxes. They make THE PERFECT favors....

Hera are the square boxes The teal paper came as a 12x12 paper that i cut apart in strips and each strip repeats "Jeff and Shannon August 8, 2012". The gray/silver is the same paper just with the colors changed.
