So this is going to be a photo heavy post...
I did this Layout for the 4 product challenge over at Studio Calico and it is inspired by Lisa's (aka gluestickgirl on the boards). Here's the list of allowed supplies:
1 sheet of patterned paper (may be double sided)
Studio Calico stamp
buttons
1 length of ribbon
(we also said they could use cardstock and any tools they wanted)
It was a great challenge and I love how this Layout turned out!!! One piece of two side Sassafras paper goes very far!!!
This one I used the product negative from Sassafras chipboard frames. Journaling: Lisa, Jake, Jeff, Eva and I were all sitting in the living room after dinner talking. All of a sudden Eva sticks her arms out to her side with this big grin on her face and she starts swinging her arms from side to side saying "I did it! I did it!" We laughed so HARD!
Used a piece of my souvenir bag from the Space Needle. Also took a page from April's book from Studio Calico. If you haven't seen her work you really need to make a point of looking!!! She is just so amazing at this paper and scissor thing!!!! She inspired the cutting up of my cardstock and inserting patterned paper. I really love this look!!!
Used the negative lefted over from the Layout above. The orange paper went perfectly with my subject!!! My great-grandmother, grandfather, mother, and now my brother and me are all floridan's....hense the fourth generation.
I did this for a Rough Draft Sketch. Unfortunately you will never see the sketch because Zoe and Jemma closed down the challenge blog....which made me sad but life get's in the way sometimes....we have all been there!! Journaling: I'm so glad I got to see you! You have become an amazing man! xoxo
Journaling: Eva, Your Uncle Jeff loves you so very much! Your the reason he came to Washington State!! His own words! He loves playing with you! Your kisses are the best!! He would do anything for you! He'll be very protective of you when you get older! He is protective of you now too! Just remember no matter what he loves you with all his heart!! Hugs
Two things inspired this LO...a pagemaps sketch and April Foster from Studio Calico...got the glossy accents out for this page and made random lottery numbers glossy..it is really neat in person!! Journaling: It didn't take long 4 mom and me to spoil you!! xoxo
This is my lift of the fabulous Nicole Samuels over at Studio Calico. Her's was an 8 1/2 x 11 but I wanted mine a 12 x 12 so this is what I did. Journaling: We were coloring together and you were just jabbering on about something to me... all of a sudden you looked up at me, cricked your head to the side and said "HUH?!"
One thing is for sure Studio Calico has some amazing talent on their Design Team!!!! Even if you never get one of their kits...you can still get so much inspiration from them!!! Even in the member gallery there is some really great talent!!!
Can you tell?!?!?! Even Layout is a Studio Calico kit!!
Thanks for looking and I love to hear from you!!!

hi cassandra!
totally digging all your layouts :)
and to answer your question about my camera...i bought my 40D slightly used (like once) from my older sister. she is a wedding photographer, but a nikon user...one random day she bought that canon and used it at 1 wedding, but didn't like it, cause she's used to the nikon. so, she sold it to me for a couple hundred dollars off the price.
i LOVE it...but i would be leary about buying used from people you don't know...just my opinion!
good luck!
