Calvinball #18 January Project Life front/back

January started with Vince and I both sick as dogs, but that didn't keep us from having our traditional black eyed peas on the first.  We went to OKC to see Lance and Holly during January, it was such a change to watch Lance doing the work and Vince sitting and watching. I guess he has finally grown up.  We also sold the Ranger in January and of course Vince wouldn't even think of listing it until it was completely detailed by him!

CalvinBall #16 JT's 5th Summertime Happy Birthday Adventure Party

This was created using Echo Park Summer Days (2010) designed by Bella Road.  These are random pictures taken after JT's friend party when family was still playing hard!!

Happy Anniversary Card

I have spent so much time in the scrap loft working on layouts for CalvinBall I all but forgot that our 33rd wedding anniversary is this Saturday.  I threw this together this afternoon using Amy Tangerine 6x6 Rise & Shine paper, plus DCWV glitzy glitter in blue using Tim Holtz (sizzix) celebrate thinlits dies, plus various stamps.

CalvinBall #15 Jill's Beautiful Happy 46th Birthday

This was created because of a point in the Calvinball rules that said a point could be added for scrapping with the color purple. Colored purple pattern paper was located in the depths of the scrap vault it was Making Memories, Be Inspired dated 2005, after I dusted it off I got out the clear gesso and gelatos on Stampin Up whisper white 12 x 12 and came up with this background foundation page. I went to town with purple foil paper punches and dies.  Pulled out some old stamps, memento grape ink 2 sticko vellum sticker sheets and what do you know, I did a purple layout!!  Surprise!!!

CalvinBall #14 Papa's Cowboy Hat

This layout was fun, I had a speciality cut apart piece of 12x12 that I had purchased at a retreat in November 2015, it was perfect for the pictures.  These were taken in Pflugerville 4th of July weekend 2014.  JT and Blake got a kick out of wearing Papa's cowboy hat, they thought they were tough little cowboys.

CalvinBall #13 Remember, I (heart) U

This was taken at JT's soccer game during the weekend that we went to Lana's to watch the kids so her and John could have a night away with friends.  My mom flew into Dallas to ride down to Austin to surprise everyone. This layout is mostly taken from my scrap bin, some are 6x6's that were pulled for other layouts that ended up in scraps.
