Cocoa Daisy Tag Album

Several years ago I subscribed to Cocoa Daisy's monthly Travelers Notebook Kit Club and had a ton of fun documenting my daily life for almost year. Recently I subscribed to Cocoa Daisy's Planner Kit and thought I would clean out my stash of Cocoa Daisy Products before my new kit arrived. I used leftovers from one of their beach themed kits to create this cute tag album.

Stuck?! Layout #1 (Aug) - Summer

If you're ever in the Outer Banks I would recommend a trip to the Wright Brothers National Monument in Kill Devil Hills. While there isn't a ton to see, it's amazing to think the first sustained flight only took place 114 years ago.

Happy Labor Day weekend! Here is my layout for Scrapbook Challenges' sketch #408.

OWH - Sketch #174

Happy Memorial Day weekend and thanks to everyone who visited my blog and participated in Operation Write Home's Blog Hop. For this week's sketch I wanted to do something with a summer or beach theme and found this starfish stamp from Stampin' Up's "Seaside" set. I used mostly scrap cardstock, a piece of torn vellum, and an embellishment from the retired hodgepodge hardware set.

Embossed Embossing Swap

For this month's technique swap I used versamark to highlight one of the embossed chevron rows and then applied clear embossing powder.  Then I  stamped the shell background using the By the Seashore set and covered the image with a piece of vellum to tone down the dark color.  The crab came from the same set and was cut out by hand.
