Washi Wednesday!

I kinda like the sound of that! 

AND I got crafty with my washi tape. I used my birthday money and got a typewriter. I gotta tell  you. I am a lazy scrapper. Getting out of my room, going to printer, lining up journaling, the printing, cutting..etc...BLEH! 

So I decided to invest in a typewriter that I just pull out, plug in and type my journaling right then and there and I loooove it. I find myself journaling MORE! So that is what I focused on with this layout. 

So first, I played with the washi design on a piece of white cardstock making sure it was lined up where my photo was going to be and then just typed away.  

All cardstock is Core'dinations Cardstock, Washi is a mix of some I found on ebay, Queen & Co. and My Mind's Eye. Letters are Heidi Swapp. I cut the tag from my Silhouette with some Kraft Core and used a Cocao Daisy stamp on it...love this wine stamp I got from there...I use it a lot :)

Hello Saturday, It's me Ellen.

Working like a busy bee...and it feels good to be back scrapping!

I have a few lo's to share today and a, well, a funny store. So Henry and I were sleeping in. Okay, I was...he just came into our room after brain left for work and owen got on the bus and we snuggled watching TV :)

Anywho....I hear the dogs going crazy in their kennels and I hear this ruccus outside. Yup. They're back...TURKEYS...started off as about 20 of them but now there are 50+ easily. Talked to my neighbor today and she counted 60. So...think of 60 turkeys in your backyard as your alarm clock. They are LOUD. Sooo loud and a really strange kind of noise. Not gobbling for sure. Or the cute sound you make when you are like, "gobble, gobble" it's more like garbuckabuckabuckabuck. And of course, the camera was downstairs so we missed a great shot. Guess I have to go to bed with my camera now, LOL!  So now that you are officially schooled in the daily life of a turkey at the Sosnoski household...

how about some layouts?  So you know how I love stamping!  

Speaking of stamps.................

Did someone stay stamping????????

I did some, as I like to call it...schtampin' on these with some CD stamps and some of my favorite goodies...LYB!

{remember to click on the images to make them larger}

I love love this CD stamp!!!  Today...just a great word :)

So this is Chase. You see my pooches in my lo's a lot. I used the 10 Favorite Things from his perspective...you know sleeping, bones, chasing turkeys!!! LOL!.....

These adhesive fabric stickers in chevron are the BOMB!

And my fave fiskars punch :) pawprint.

I spruced these up a bit and punched them.

And my ham! Henry! Hammin' up for the camera with his Cheeto face.

I cut out the butterfly below and then used this cool postage stamp border that was left over from the ticket/journaling card.

And I love this one, LOL!  He is such a Turkey! I cut the title with some Lifestyle Crafts alphas. AND I embossed the woodgrain sticker!!! LOOOOOOVE these. So sad I only have one left :( But seriously...Twig is my favorite line ever.  

You can see the embossing here a bit better and I made my own turkey. 

Seriously...has anyone ever said that word turkey so many times in one blog post? LOL!!!!!

I did a few cards, too,  but I subbed them to Papercrafts. One of these days they are going to pick up one of my cards!!!!

Webster's Yacht Club

Have you used your Webster's Pages Yacht Club yet?

It is the perfect summer paper for all  those family photos by the water.

This photo is of a few family friends and my mom and nana 

having a talk by the lake at my sister's.

I accented the gingham  paper with some Glitter Silk cardstock and brads. I cannot

say enough about this glitter cardstock. It doesn't shed, it cuts like butter...embosses...

And then I layered the tags with some Glue Arts pop up dots to

get them off a page a bit.

I also used my doily stamp from Cocoa Daisy on the chipboard with some

white pigment ink.
