Croppin' friends

Hello! I had some time this past weekend to make a page using some of my favorite items I had laying around my scrappy space. Even though I scrap mainly for a boy, I still order some of the more girly items that I love when they are released. 

I love the Glitz Unchartered Waters collection, the new Maggie Holmes collection from Crate Paper and the Fancy Pants buttons and little bags. I also jumped on those wood veneer clouds from Freckled Fawn and the anchors from Studio Calico.

This picture was taken at a crop I went to not too long ago for a Relay For Life fundraiser. Kate Vickers came on over from Canada, Lisa Swift lives in the area and Audrey Yeager came from neighboring Syracuse. It was so fun to hang with these ladies for the day. My friend Renee was there, too, but managed to duck the photos. 

I liberated the sequins from the pocket that comes in the Maggie Holmes collection and sprinkled them around the page. Wow — these little stinkers get away from you fast and I'm sure there are more in the carpet than I want to admit. 

Thanks for stopping by here today. Love how this turned out and I was happy to share it here today. Enjoy your week!

Uncharted love

I love the nautical trend, so when I saw the Unchartered Waters collection from Glitz during this past CHA, I instantly ordered it. After it arrived on my doorstep (thanks Cassie and her Paper Issues Shop!), I just admired it all for awhile. It was too pretty to even use. 

In a texting convo with my bestie, Sara, I had snapped this pic of what I had worn to work that day. YES! My love for navy and white stripes was suddenly the inspiration I needed to crack open my stash of Uncharted Waters.

So, it may seem silly to be scrapping a picture of my shirt that doesn't even have my face in it — but I love this! I even branched out and used navy for my background paper. Shocking... I know. :)

Thanks for stopping by here today to see my page and read the ramblings about how I ended up with this layout. Random as it is, this is one of my new favorite pages.
