Circle A Winner's Name!

Good afternoon folks!
I wanted to say thank you to everyone who stopped by during The My Scraps and More blog hop! Thank you for your sweet comments and thank you to those who became followers.
Before I announce the winner of the Authentique goodies I wanted to share two more layouts I made with the Apron Strings Bigger than a Breadbox kit. The kit was filled with Lily Bee Buttercup and Bazzill Vintage Marketplace.
I used the Lily Bee Buttercup to create this layout of my husband on our trip to Disney. He was modeling his new ears in the elevator on the way up to our room. I think delirium had set in ...

On this next layout I was still a bit circle crazy and fussy cut the circles out of the Bazzill Vintage Marketplace Market Dots/Stitches paper. This was Amory's first tooth she lost - after this one they are falling out of her head all the time. The tooth fairy is going broke!

Cadbury Hangover ....

Did your Easter weekend have you hopping all over the place? Ours did! We had windows installed on Friday so furniture and draperies were all over the place. Haircuts Saturday morning, then off to the church for Easter picnic and egg hunt, after that a birthday party. Up on Sunday bright and early for church (with matching outfits - everyone in yellow and black - and no pictures!?!?!), home to bake an apple gingerbread cobbler, then off to my mom's and back up the road to Victor's parents. I am exhausted!

I wanted to wish everyone a Hoppy Easter a bit late! I made this card using Apron Strings Bigger than a Breadbox kit. I combined the two lines in the kit - Bazzill's Vintage Marketplace and Lily Bee's Buttercup with the fun embellishments in the kit to create this card. The egg was a plain wooden piece that needed some "dyeing"! I rubbed a turquoise ink pad all over it and then dabbed it with a paper towel to remove some ink giving it an aged look. I backed it with scraps of Lily Bee and voila decorated egg!

One of the layouts I did with the Lily Bee Buttercup line in the Apron Strings Bigger than a Breadbox kit was this one for Priscilla's first day of school. The line isn't just for spring pictures!

I kept this one simple so as not to overwhelm the pics of my beautiful Priscilla. I would say sweet but she is a preteen and sweet happens occasionaly but beautiful is an all the time thing!

Check out the converse tennis shoes - a good way to make the uniform all your own!

Hello April! Did you get fooled yesterday? Did you fool anyone? Was there towels stuck in shoes, lightbulbs loosened, or cheese slices left in the wrapper on sandwiches? Umm yeah me neither ....

I want to share the first of many projects (seven layouts - one a double, two cards, and two altered projects) with you today that I made with the Apron Strings Larger than a Breadbox kit. This has to be one of my favorite kits that Lori put together at Apron Strings. In the kit is the Lily Bee Buttercup collection - give me any Lily Bee and I would be happy - and the Bazzill Vintage Market collection which was new to me but I think I have fallen in like with these papers!

This layout was made from a sketch from Sketch Inspiration. Apron Strings is sponsoring the sketch this week with a terrific prize and asked the Apron Strings designers to make some examples.

Here is the sketch -

And here is my layout made with the Apron Strings Larger than a Breadbox kit. Everything except the sticker letters spelling "Girls" was in the kit. The gorgeous eyelet rosette in the upper right corner started out a pristine white. I just couldn't leave it alone! I sprayed it with an October Afternoon Sprinkler in Strawberry Creme. After taking the hairdryer to it to dry it ( I was quite liberal with the spray!) it was the perfect shade of pink for my layout.
