Club Q (Mar)

These are my first layouts of Baby Ethan and I am loving the sepia toned photos paired with the new Quick Quotes paper line "Damsel in Distress". Check out my cute munchkin :)

"Baby Love"


"World of wonder"


"Love Life"


The accordian book & 'how to' directions:


How to: cut a 3x9 piece of paper and score every 3". Accordian fold the paper so it opens to the right. You need to have a page protector before adding it to your completed page. Insert your completed page into the protector, then place the folded book on top of the protector where you want it to be positioned. Use an exacto knife to cut along the right side of the book. Add glue to the very page of the book, then carefully slide it into the protector. This way only the bottom of the book is under the protector and the other 2 folds are on the outside and interactive.

Club Q Redo (Feb)

This will be my last update as a mom of 1. Baby Ethan is due any day now :) I created these layouts for Quick Quotes with pics of the family in mind.

Quick Quotes Club Q redo (Jan)

Jan Club Q re-design. This month's kit used the new paper line called "Live Out Loud." I love all of the bright colors. My scrapping resolution is to include more journaling on my pages. For my first layout I left room in the upper right corner of the first page to add in journaling. Then for my second layout I used a stamp to create journaling lines in the lower left-corner. Pictures speak a thousand words, but sometimes 'real words' are needed to help you remember life's precious moments.

"Magic Moments"


"Life Unexpected"


"B-day/gift card holder" - for this I used two small pieces of canvas for the front & back. I wrapped ribbon underneath the paper to create a 'book-like' feel.

Quick Quotes Club Q redo (Dec)

I'm back :) It's been a while but my account was having some issues. To see my Oct & Nov layouts please go to the Quick Quotes scrapbooking company facebook page or you can view them at: shopquickquotes.com in the gallery area.

Here are my re-designs for Dec.


After using up the supplies in this month's kit I took my scrap chipboard and created the tree on the left-hand page.


I love the pearls that were included in this kit :)


This is a 12x12 canvas that is 1" thick. It can either be hung on the wall or displayed with a stand.


I created these unconventional gift card holders for Nolan's teachers.

Quick Quotes - Club Q re-design (Sept)

Here are the projects that I created using the Quick Quotes "Club Q" monthly kit club for September.

"Friends" (single page layout)

I created this layout in anticipation of the Quick Quotes Private Reserve getaway in Palm Springs the first weekend in October. I am attending the event with 3 of my girlfriends. The large flower will be for a picture of our table, then I can fit a single photo of each of us inside the smaller flowers :)








"Butchart Gardens"









"All About Me"







LAUGH (Rules of Chocolate)



LAUGH (Pg 1)



LAUGH (Pg 2)



TEACHER CARD

Quick Quotes - Aug Club Q Re-design

It has been a while since I've posted. We were out of the country for a few weeks, then school started back up. I've finally had a chance to sit down and scrap a bit and boy did it feel good :)

Here you will see a few of the designs I've created using the Quick Quotes Scrapbooking Company kit of the month for August. I have taken their products and added just a few of my own items I already had at home to put my personal touch on them.

Included is a single page layout of my son's first day of preschool. I got the idea to create a large apple from a magazine, then changed up their layout to be my own. I drew one side of the apple 'free-hand', then traced it onto a second piece of paper so both sides would match. Beneath that layout are two double page layouts of different parts of our Canada vacation. At the bottom is an altered chipboard mini album, very simply made since it's for my son. It will give him a few snapshots from this stage in his life "Me", "My house", "My family", "My teacher", etc.
