the pinky, cottony candy deetz:

here's an LO i did the beginning of april a little after Kelly Purkey's online class, using her sketch #12.  i was inspired one day going thru some paperwork and came across my very old old passport.  instead using myself, my hubby was guest star of this LO. used silver ink and journaling frames stamps to mimic passport stamps, did a lot of tone on tone punched stars as well.  these photos of my hubz were photos he took for his passport and they had him wear that 'funky shirt' (his words).  had to redact some of the id info. isn't my hubz handsome?  check it out...

THIS LAYOUT WAS TEMPORARILY TAKEN OUT...WILL BE REPOSTED....

sorry the photo of this LO isn't all that...i kept taking it in so many angles, lighting, inside, outside and for some reason it just would not do me good.  anyway....here's a few deetz:

have a great friday and weekend.  happy mother's day!  i'm off to go for a jog!

The 2 Couples on Inspired Blueprints

here's one i did this past saturday early in the a.m.  I used Inspired Blueprints sketch #46 and the LRS April 2010 kit.  this sketch was a fun one to do.  this LO will definitely be on my fave list.  i turned the photos to b&w to make them pop out with the papers.  the first photo is of my sis and her hubz (going on 16 yrs), the second one is of me and my hubz (we've been married for a little over a yr now).  love the jb butterflies!  lots of border punching, layering and tone on tone...my fave techniques!

here's my take:

and now for the deetz:

so happy that jo & rey have been together for so long...we are gonna follow in their footsteps.  yey-yah!

tfl!  have a great nite!
