Elephants and Zebras and Okapis... Oh my!?!

Ok so maybe that doesn't sounds as impressive as "Lions and Tigers and Bears Oh My!" But it sure got your attention! Though it was a strange assortments of critters so it might still be impressive. 

First off Happy Ultimate Pi day! For those not familiar  with any of that Pi is of course 3.14, which is today's date. Now once every century, the next numbers in the sequence appear as the date so 3.1415. Now for super duper ultimate fun at 9:26 will be the next set of numbers in the sequence so 3.1415926.  Pretty spiffy huh? 

Now you have learned something for the day so back to our Safari critters. 

All of these layouts were with Bo Bunny Safari which I can't tell you enough how much I absolutely love! 

And here are some close ups so you can enjoy the details of this line

And now for Some Zebras. 

And another close up of the amazing details. 

And last but not least The mystical Okapi. 

We got pretty lucky on our Safari and was able to see him because normally during the day they are hiding. And here is some detail from the layout. 

Well that's it for now. So far for the month I know I have 10 layouts done. Trying to make it so I have a layout done for each day this month so I'm almost caught up! 

Until next time!!

DCWV March Stack-a-Holic challenge

Hello hello! See I told ya I'm on a roll this month! Go me!! Our anniversary on Tuesday went fantastic. We had Outback for dinner which of course was delicious! Love me some shrimp and steak!! Yum yum! 

Anywho, today I am here to share my layout for this month's DCWV challenge. Here is the sketch. 

And here is my take on it. 

The papers I used were DCWV Old World. I also used some embellishments from Simple Stories Say Cheese and Say Cheese II. 

These photos are actualy from our very first trip in September 2010. I was looking for a different photo and stumbled upon these. As soon as I saw them I knew that these pictures would work well for this sketch. Instead of having several small photos, I ended up using two bigger photos and fill in with some embellsihments. I made sure to pick little phrases that were fun since that's what these photos are of fun! 

I also got a chance to use some fancy scissors for the first time to cut some of the papers. 

Well that's it for now! I do have some other layouts to share but that shall share another day. 

Until next time!!

525600 have passed...

Good morning everyone! One year ago today, and almost down to the minute as I write this, Michael and I were standing at Sunrise Terrece in Wilderness Lodge saying "I Do". It's been an amazing year and boy did it go fast! So Happy Anniversary to my amazing husband, Michael, and too many many more!! 

Of course our first anniversary couldn't go without having something to do with Disney. This past Sunday we went to Disney On Ice! I have never been before and it was so much fun! 

Me with my sweet Olaf snow one holder. 

Here is the grand finale when everyone comes out! 

And afterwards we went to dinner to a buffet where they were serving, among other things, crawfish. I never had one so naturally I had to try it but first a little fun. 

He was trying to visit his crab and shrimp friends. 

Such a goofball!

Anywho, as promised here are the last few layouts from my wedding album. The first anniversary is actualy the paper anniversary. So my gift to Michael was this completed album. 

Here is the family watching the ceremony. For this I used DCWV Once Upon a Time. 

And here is the family at the end of the ceremony. Here I used Simple a Stories Say Cheese and Say Cheese II. Love that the added a second addition to the Say Cheese line. 

Here I used my October Scraptastic Kit Heart It Races. 

And the final layout which I also placed as the final layout of the album. 

Once again I used DCWV Once Upon a Time. I also used a few different Thickers from my stash to create the title, which I thought was fitting to the end of my Fairty Tale Wedding Album. I added the ribbon at the bottom and some gems since that Aqua was the color theme. 

Well that's all! Don't fret I still have tons of photos to scrap of the rest of this adventure! 

Until next time!!

I haven't disappeared!

Hello people! I am so sorry I have neglected  you. I pinkie promise I didn't mean too, I just kept forgetting to update. But I promise I have been working hard on so many layouts! I have even completed my entire wedding album and even organized it! Of course I'm not going to share them all at once! In fact the wedding ones I will share tomorrow which happens to be... Our first anniversary! It's so amazing that it has already been a year! But more on that tomorrow. For now here are some layouts to tie you over till then! 

Here is one using my new Simple Stories Enchanted. I love this line and so excited that it has finally arrived at my doorstep! Of course this goes perfect with meeting princesses! Can't wait to use more of it! 

And in fact here is more of the Enchanted line! I absolutely love that castle in the corner! I definetly need more of that castle in my life! 

And for my final layout to share is more new product! This is Bo Bunny Safari. I have been struggling for a while to find some paper to go with all my amazing photos that I took on the Safari. As soon as I saw this... I knew I needed it in my life! It works so amazing on the African Safari. Thank goodness because we have so many pictures! Not to mention all the photos we take when we go to the zoo which is often since we have season passes! 

Well that's it for now. Like I said I will be back tomorrow to share the final layouts of my wedding album! 

Until next time!!
