Life is Like a Bowl of Cherries

Have you seen what you can do with the new Cherry-O Workshop on the Go Basic Kit!?! I’ve had so much fun creating with all the coordinating products for this kit and I just finished up four scrapbook layouts for my scrapbook clubs this month.

This is the featured layout that we will be creating from the kit brochure. I had some fun using some older pictures of my now almost 3 yr old. It’s just amazing to me to see how much she has grown already. She is 9 months old in these pictures.

I changed up the below layout some from the one shown in the kit brochure. I used the same Cherish scrapbook concept but used a different base for my pages and changed up the B&T Duos…everything else is the same.

Did you know there was a song from the 1930s called ‘Life is Like a Bowl of Cherries’? I used the last line from the song for my page title and then used some pictures of Bevyn and her daddy dancing together…even doing the splits!

The exclusive stamp set that comes with the Cherry-O Workshop on the Go kit, Bowl of Cherries,  is darling! It reminds me of Mary Englebright with the checker border and the cherries.

Each month, I create two additional layouts using the coordinating Cherry-O My Stickease Assortment. This month I chose to make the layouts that are featured on the back on the Cherry-O My Stickease Assortment sheets.

The Cherry-O Workshop on the Go Basic Kit is perfect for so many types of events such as Family Reunions, 4th of July (photos I used above), and of course baking one of your favorite recipes like Caitlyn making Red Velvet Cupcakes in the layout below. Be sure to notice how everything is color coordinated with the papers…Caitlyn planned all that!

It’s a Scrapbook Caboodle!

I’ve spent the last two days creating layouts using this month’s Workshop on the Go kit, Caboodle. The colors in this kit are so bright and yummy! It includes Buttercup, Crystal Blue, Sorbet, & Sweet Leaf.

It’s amazing what you can get out of these kits! I have created 4 two-page layouts so far and I still have quite a bit of paper left over and lots of accessories too.

In addition to the two layouts in the Workshop on the Go brochure, I created two more layouts using My Stickease and our fabulous scrapbook how-to program, Cherish. It’s a must have in my scrapbook room! It’s just one of a collection of our wonderful how-to programs.

This first layout is created with the pattern featured on pages 36-37 called Creative Rhythm.

I love how I was able to use 9 photos using this pattern. Here are some close-ups of the details…

  

This next one is featured on pages 98-99 and is called Gallery Collection. I used it because it was easy to crop my pictures down to 4” x 4”, whether they were landscape or portrait pictures.

Both layouts are of my son at ages 15 months and 6 years old. I’m amazed that he will be turning 15 years old in 15 days! How time flies. Here are a few more details…

  

(Thank you to Helen Onulak & Karen Pedersen for their inspiration.)
