I had a great weekend... I am not looking forward to work in 6 hours! I am still grieving the lost of my keys. I wish I could just stay home & scrap; I'm an all work no play kind of person. But when I do play this is what makes me smile...
This is John in the "Dream Car"... I told him to enjoy the 5 minutes he got to sit in it. I tried to angle the picture to make it have a road feel... of course I had to hold back on my embellishments.
This picture came out really blurry, but I was so inspired by this Graphic 45 paper I love vintage, color, and pattern...
Joanne had given me the bird die cut, it was white, so I used Tim Holtz "Tea Stain" & "Gold" Glimmer mist to pretty it up some... I hope I did it justice.
Yes, we did meet the wax figure of our President Obama... he looked so real, I was fascinated that all the wax figures had nostril openings. I made myself use paper & embellishments I have been passing by; I think this was a fun photo which deserved a fun layout.
This is my favorite photo of John, he was so determined to get my sister Pat her "Dodger Blue" M&M's... I kept yelling at him, "She said Blue!" The look on his face looks so stressed... he's a great brother in law.
Lastly, my favorite place in Vegas was the Paris Hotel, I have always wanted to go to Paris but it would be too far from home and my puppies. My favorite part of this layout was the Fleur De Lys; I painted it black, added a gold glaze, and put gold leaf on top of that. It looks so cool in person if I do say so myself. I even used my "Paris" stamp set and the ribbon
Cat gave me. Well, I must get to bed, until next time Adios!!!
That sweet little boy in the stroller is Mr. Bletzer with is dad (The O.G. Mr. Bletzer) and his two sisters. I was so excited to get these pictures from my sister in law, what a great father's day gift for my husband. I have no idea what our plans are tomorrow, I just know Deidra, Harry, Samson, Roscoe, and myself are so grateful for the man in our lives... thank you honey for being the best dad a little girl could have every needed or wanted... she really is yours! We love you and happy father's day!
