I had sometime today to create a couple of scrapbook pages!
The Cheer pages was done using a Sketch Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.
Go to SCS to see Sally's fun sketch.
In case anyone was wondering how I made the Pom Poms:
- Cut out a circle to fit the width of the picture, then cut the circle in half.
- Using edging scissors, cut skinny strips on the bottom layer of the pom pom.
- Cut at an angle as you move around the circle.
- For the top layer cut thin strips out of different color paper.
- Fold the strips into a "V" and stick them in a fan pattern on a piece of double stick tape to match the pom pom shape. Trim if necessary.
- Next adhere the top layer to the bottom layer.
- Cut away the very bottom where all the pieces meet to reduce bulk.

I often use the same pictures to create a page for each of my daughters books.
I created the first layout and wasn't overly thrilled with it so I headed over
to SCS to find some inspiration. I found a sketch challenge that was posted
over a year ago. I really like the way it turned out, except I'm not sure if I am
going to keep the arrow! Something is just not right about it!
Which one do you like better?

So cute! I like the PJs page alot!
LOL I'm slow tonight...UM...I like the top one because it's more Christmasy in color ;)
Just found your blog and think it is super fabulous! Woohoo! Your letter to #1 & #2 Boob totally cracked me up!
Oh and I think both scrap layouts look great! (And I'm not just saying that.) :o)
Have a great weekend!
I like the bottom one better. I think it places more emphasis on the photos themselves. Love your layouts!!!

These are so cute, I wish someone would make me a scrapbook!
I love the colors of the top one. They just seem more "christmassy". I do however like the layout of the pictures of the bottom one more. Mix and match, I guess.
You're so talented!
I like the top one... it flows easier for me. :)
Love the } bracket! :)
I actually can't decide. The top one looks more christmasy but the bottom one is awfully unique and charming in it's own way. Gosh, I am SUCH a scrapbooking novice. Pretty much all I do is frame pics with diff colored cardstock and add stickers or corners. I have so much to learn. But I'm trying and that's a start!! :)
I love the bottom one...maybe it's the colors I prefer, but both pages are very nice!!!
Very cool layouts. Love them. Thanks for the SITS congrats.cherry
I like the bottom one. I think it makes the photo of you and the girls the center of attention. Very cute! ~ Jen
Great pages! I love those pom poms!
i like the pink and white pj's one better, but the other one is adorable too! i love the way you made the pom-poms too!
I really think I like the 2nd design better; I am digging the black background.
How do you make your letters? Do you have a Cricut?
Maybe if you point the arrow to one of you wearing the PJ's?
