The Greatest View

Hi Everyone...
There's a fun challenge going on over at Jot Magazine...The Greatest View... they want folks to link up layouts with their "Greatest View"...which can be anything from scrapping a photo of a wonderful view somewhere,  a layout celebrating an event and your view of it, or even an everyday moment that is a great view.  I had the absolute perfect layout for this!!!  Check it out:

 

This is one of my all time favorite photos...it's a quick cell phone shot of the sunset in Key West.  We were on the roof of the La Concha hotel on Duval Street.  It's the tallest building in Old Key West and offers the most breathtaking views of the sunset!  Even better, there's a fun bar right there!  Everyone rides up to the roof, grabs a drink and finds a good spot to watch the sun go down!

 

 

I used Bella Blvd.'s Sand and Surf collection...perfect for my pic.  I tried to create a little "scene" using the palm tree and waves chipboard pieces.

I kept it simple to focus on the picture...just a few splats of Mr. Huey's to add some pizzazz.  That's it for today...thanks for stopping by!

Just Fabulous

Hi Everyone... I have a fun layout today inspired by the Mood Board Challenge over at Jot Magazine.  If you're not familiar with Jot, it's a brand new digital magazine for scrappers with a big emphasis on how we collect and record memories today...Instagram, Project Life and the like.  It's really fun and fresh and best of all interactive...they have tons of challenges and "mood boards"  like this one:

Here's my entry for the challenge...it's my silly kitty Rosie being...well Fabulous.   The paper is from my take home kit from the Layout Workshop at Right at Home Scrapbooking.  It is from Echo Park's Here and Now collection -  I love the bold and bright colors!  I tried to stick to mostly the yellow and pink color scheme but also used small splashes of green and blue like in the bottom left picture. 

 

The feathers are from Bella Blvd.  They were also part of our take home kit.  I've been resistant to the whole feather trend, but I've finally caved.  They were perfect for this layout.  The flower was cut using a Lori Whitlock Silhouette file.

 

 

The wood confetti is from Freckled Fawn.  I colored the pieces using my neon Mr. Huey mists and added some Stickles for sparkle.  The adorable Heart flair is from the Paper Issues Special Edition Flair at PandaEightDesigns.

 

It was a fun layout to put together!  That's it for today...getting ready to head off to Vegas and my FIRST CHA!!! (no not excited at all....) I'll be sure to take some pictures and post!!  Thanks for stopping by~
