Rain or Shine Layout

Hello!

Today I want to share a layout I created for my Disney World book!  This one is about our day at Hollywood Studios.  We had a great time there but it rained off and on!  Here is my page:

I picked out some My Minds Eye and We R Memory Keepers papers for this one.  The embellishments are by Studio Calico and Little Yellow Bicycle.  There are some label stickers by Crate Paper as well.

The color of these Thickers is perfect!  They are kind of a mushroom color and go with so many lines!

The canvas clouds were spritzed with mists before I adhered them to the page.  These cute rhinestone drops were perfect with these clouds!

This picture of my stepmom and sister cracks me up!  As soon as they bought these ponchos, it stopped raining!  Better safe then sorry but too funny anyways!  Hee!  Can you see the kids underneath them, too?

Well, thanks for peeking at my page today!

A Calico Whale Card

Hello!  It's a snowy Monday here in Northern Virginia and we managed to get the day off of school!  :)  My girls are happily in their jammies playing with Perler beads.  Thanks to Pinterest, they have found so many fun patterns for them lately!

While they are busy, I thought I'd share a card!  I made this one using the Critters Under the Sea set by Lawn Fawn:

I thought it would be fun to stamp this little guy onto some patterned paper and cut him out.  This paper is from the 6x6 pad of We R Memory Keepers Simply Spring line.  I stamped the sentiment, waves and his water spout with Midnight Muse ink from Stampin' Up and then added some white and navy ink splatters.  I used pop dots to add my whale to the scene.  Lastly, I embellished the top left corner with a little gray washi from My Mind's Eye and some epoxy dots from Teresa Collins.

I'm happy with how this little card turned out!  To tell you the truth, I had made a whole other card with this little whale- a CAS number that I hated!  I threw it away before I went to bed and when I woke up the next day, I pulled it out of the trash and took the whale off... it wasn't his fault! :)  I'm glad I saved him!

Well, hope you enjoy your day!  I'll be getting crafty with my girls for the most part so I will definitely be enjoying mine!
