Terrifically Thrilling Thursday and XOXO and MSW


Thought it would be fun to multi task again so I could not only do my


Just Imagine Crafts / Kreaxions weekly project but also play along with my friends


over at XOXO.. so I scraplifted Lisa Watson. Love the simplicity of her lift


and it worked with page 2 of my double for the summer layout.

Also Jen at My Sketch World's July Challenge had WATER theme.


This is really working out fabulously .. a 3 in 1.

Using the Kreaxions Punch #922 reminded me of a water cascade.. so it was perfect on the



border. Backed it with red through the black.. it's very dark but I love it.


Here is the 2 pages put together...

Shutterfly.. and Weddings

Shutterfly is becoming very popular... and I have been using it.


I have been making albums of my scrapping pages so when I give them


all away I have a copy for myself. It is an amazing way to preserve my work.


Today however there was a promo for a 12x12 book at 50% off


and what a great way to save some of the boys Wedding photos.


Shutterfly also has a link to share and embed the project on here to share ... so here it


is for any of you that would love a peek.

Using this sketch I made a layout instead of a card, added an extra photo and some cute embellishments.

I added rubons, stitching, flower cluster, some brads, popped up a few things and to finish it off Just Imagine/ Kreaxions Punches. The border is using Kreaxions #302 and the bottom flower is #601 and the pieces I punched out are in the centre section for accents too.


Sure hope you have a great day and hope to see you everyday when the DT share with you some amazing and inspiring projects.... hugs Bev

a handmade Paper Medallion which is edge punched with Martha Stewart punch,

backed with dark cardstock for colour pop through and added a centre button.

Lots of machine stitching, some brads and journal tags hand cut from the papers finished

off this great fun layout.
