100% Fun

It seems that I can only go so long without scrapbooking! Life is very busy and I don't always have the time to sit and create a page or a card when I want to. Then all of a sudden I can't stand it any more and and I just have to take the time for a creative outlet!

That is how I have been feeling the last couple of days. We have been getting in some amazing new summer themed papers at the store and I just needed to create something - so I did!

I based my layout on this recent sketch from Sketchy Thursdays:

I used some papers, stickers and rub-ons from Kaiser Craft's Party Animals Collection.


I also added some Twine from My Mind's Eye and some buttons from my stash.


Then, last, but not least, I add a couple of Studio Calico rub-on clouds! They were the perfect color and the grid pattern matched the paper perfectly!


I have always loved this photo of Spencer. We made a trip to Lake Michigan one summer and he just couldn't wait to get out of the car and feel the soft, white sand on the beach! The photo worked so well with the fun feel of the papers!
