Cocoa Vanilla's Happy Days March Challenge

 Hi Scrappy Friends -  I'm entering this layout in the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Community's 
March 2021 Monthly Challenge, using this "Be Happy" mood board.  
 I used Cocoa Vanilla's DAYDREAM collection to capture this HAPPY memory, of our 3 Portuguese Water Dogs, Sugar, Tino and Maggie, all trying to cuddle with my husband while he was resting on the couch! They crack us up everyday!

I call this picture "Find Phil!"
I created the base page by using one of Vicki Boutin's mixed media pages from her Let's Wander Collection, and added some Distress Oxide Sprays and Nuvo Sparkle Sprays.
Here are some close ups for you:



  
I love this collection and am happy with how this layout came out.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Well, Stay Safe, and PLEASE WEAR A MASK

My Little Scrapbook Store's March Challenge - It's a Sketch!!

 Hi Everyone, it is time for My Little Scrapbook Store's March challenge -   
You have until April 5th to complete and enter this challenge using the awesome sketch below:


Here is my Inspiration Layout for the MLSS Design Team - I hope you can play along with us! 
I used Vicki Boutin Let's Wander and Storyteller paper and some stickers and splashed some Ranger Distress Oxide Sprays on it too!  

I created a pocket behind one of the photos and added a tag with journaling telling the story/memory of a trip to a brewery on a weekend get-a-way 
- Love the "Tasted That" and "Not Good" stickers from the Let's Wander Collection 
- they were perfect, because Phil still does not like beer and he is always a good sport when I ask him to taste it!

Here are some close ups for you:






I had lots of fun with this sketch and hope you can play along too 
I hope I've inspired you to play along!
