Thanksgiving - Another Copy

I just love doing collage prints recently. I always take a million pictures and this is a great way of using them. This layout is perfect too! Here is the original I scraplifted myself again!!

Although I think I like the color combo of the original... this is still a great layout that was a quick and easy way of getting those thanksgiving photos done!

Detail Shots:

So one of the bad things about digging out all the products I have is that I discover ones that I love and want to use...but for the life of me cannot remember where I got them. For two reasons this is frustrating... 1) I like to document what I used...for myself, contests and for all thost that might read my blog... so if you want you can get it too, and 2) because I cannot go and get more. I want to use my product but when I really like it I like to use it again and again... *le sigh*

Cute new font that I've used twice now (first time on the Poof & Lights layout). This is American Crafts Thickers - Bones. Did I mention yet how excited I am about the 10 e's that come in the package!!! WHOOOOO HOOOO! I always run out of e's and normally buy two packages of fonts because of this. I love you American Crafts Thickers!!

Products Used:

• Cardstock: black, white and craft (tan)
• American Crafts Thickers: Salutations Fabric Brown & Bones Glossy (chipboard) Orange

And you know it is a pretty simple layout and fast to assemble when the product list is only 4 bullets!

Poof - a copy

I recently created a really fun layout that I needed to scraplift from myself! Here is the result.
