Hi Everyone! Just spent a great weekend working the
Croptopia event in Mystic, CT. It was a first for me, helping to run the on-site store for
Right at Home Scrapbooking, we had such a good time, an met some wonderful ladies!
I wanted to share with you the projects I did for
Right at Home for February. I got to work with a couple of lines from My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Collection. The papers are great, very vintage and
romantic!

My first layout features a picture of my grandparents when they were dating. I love this picture! They are so young! I based this layout on sketch 54 by
Creative Scrappers.

I created the roses by coloring fabric with
Shimmerz Spritz and stiffening the fabric. I then cut the roses using My Favorite things Rolled Rose Die-
namics. I added some stitching and pearls for a vine look.
My next layout used the
Portobello line from
MME's Lost and Found collection. I LOVE the blue/green/brown color combo!

The picture is my daughter Caroline. It's one of the five hundred tries of our Christmas Card picture! I converted it to black and white to keep the vintage feel. The hearts and rolled flowers were created using
MFT Die-
namics. The trims were colored using
Shimmerz Spritz.

Finally, we were asked to create something different than a layout. My assignment was to create a home decor item. I decided to create a vintage looking frame to showcase my grandparent's wedding picture.

The flowers and hearts were created using... you guessed it..
MFT Die-
namics! The roses are fabric that I stiffened and colored. A little paint and an inexpensive frame is turned to something worthy of such a special picture!
That's it for now. I'll be back soon with some layouts from Right at Home and also, my reveal for Lets Capture Our Memories!
