2008 Layout

In trying to move my craft room, I have realized that I MUST pare down and purge a bit. (Ack!!! Gasp!) In the last year or so, I have definitely moved from being a craft collector to using what I've got, so with that in mind when I'm tired of cleaning, etc., I've been crafting a bit. My card class last Sunday focused on making the old new again, so this layout is in that spirit.

It features one of my favorite pictures of all time of our girls, taken the first Sunday of 2008. (I remember that because we went out to lunch after church.) I used some old & retired CTMH products: black base pages (preprinted, color-blocked layouts), Amethyst B&T (designer paper), Key To My Heart stamp set, and Heavenly Blue organdy ribbon. The current products I used are Heavenly Blue cardstock, Friendship Alphabet, Grey Wool ink, Amethyst ink, a variety of Just Blooms paper flowers, silver and Heavenly Blue brads and other metallic accents, and 3-D foam squares. If you have any questions, feel free to ask away. As always, thanks for looking and leaving me a comment or two. Would you like to see more of my "old is new" projects? I have several finished and since I've been working on photo organization this weekend, I have tons of "new" material and ideas!
