MCT ~ Scrapping The Little Things

Happy Monday everyone! Today the design team will be sharing either layouts, PL or smashing! We hope to inspire or motivate you all to start or catch up on our books! So head over to Emma's blog, My Creative Time to see all the design teams inspirations!


Fair warning this is a very picture heavy post. Since I chose to do PL like cards,  I will breaking down what My Creative Time products I used for each card  to make it easier for you all and myself. I did scrap current pictures from the month of January ~ just one day but I LOVED this day and this little man I call my son.


The whole layout/PL page




For this card I had a picture that I took with my phone and it wasn't the best quality. So I thought it would be fun to cut around my son. Turned out pretty CUTE.




Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI & AC
Ink ~ Archival and TH

Next up ~



Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI
Ink ~ Archival and VersaMark
Clear embossing powder


For the next 2 pictures I did some journaling. I hate my printing and cursive writing BUT I think it is so important that your children and future generations see what you handwriting looks like.
