Mama-Razzi!!

 

I follow my kids around daily to snap them in all their cute little things that they do on a day to day basis. My son (who is 5) already gets annoyed when I get my camera out. But he’s so stinking cute I can’t help but take pictures!!!

When I first saw Bo Bunny’s Mama-Razzi line I was so EXCITED!!! The colors are great and the line is amazing! So for months I have drooled over it every time I saw it in a magazine. I made a promise that I would not buy many scrapbook items so I could use up some of what I had. This has been a good thing as it has eliminated my “collecting” habit that I have.

Well at ScrapFest I broke down and bought some of the papers from the Mama-Razzi line. I have created a layout today using it…this is a layout I have created for a challenge. The challenge is to use a large diecut and cut it half and off center the halves on the page.

I cut the medallion shape out using the Storybook cartridge on my Cricut. I selected the Fit to Page option which cut it 11 and 1/2 inches. I distressed the edges with my Distress-it-All and inked of course!!!

The flowers were cut from George and crumpled inked then sprayed with Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist to help the ink spread!

UmWow!!!

Well I did my first UmWow Sketch Mania submission ever (Check out Sketch Mania here!!!)…kind of! I took DeeDee’s sketch that looks like this:

Sketch13

I cut 5 3/4” squares then inked them with distress inks…spritzed them with water inked a little more. Inked a stamp with embossing ink…sprayed it with water and stamped it to create a subtle design in the Distress Inks. I’m doing a Think Ink class this month through another scrapbook group on Cafemom I’m in so I’m learning all kinds of exciting Distress Ink tips!! I’m also thinking that my 4 meager Distress Inks are not longer adequate.

The flowers were large white flowers I inked w/ Walnut Stain distress ink and sprayed with Glimmer Mist…my new FAVORITE!!!

So without further ado…here’s my layout!!
