Nautical Scrapbook layout

Here's a layout cased from the June 2011 Stampin' Success (a publication for Stampin up! demonstrators).  When I saw the Open Sea stamp set and designer paper, I knew exactly what pictures I wanted to "scrap". 

I took these of Owen in August of 2007. He was just a month shy of turning 3. Our friends Tracey and Aaron invited us to their cottage in Morrisburg, ON. It's on the St-Lawrence where these large cargo boats (for lack of a better name) travel. Owen played on the shore for hours hoping that he would get to see a boat go by. 

He finally did get to see one... Now I have to scrap those pictures too. Stay tuned!

Email me if you have any questions about the products I used.

Strength & Hope Card Class - Join the Cause and Stamp Out Breast Cancer!

Join the Cause and Stamp Out Breast Cancer!

As part of our Making a Difference program, Stampin' Up! is proud to partner with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation in the Strength & Hope Campaign.

Throughout the 2011 Summer Mini Catalogue sales period, Stampin' Up! will donate $2 from the sale of each Strength & Hope set and Strength & Hope digital kit to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).

I was inspired by this campaign and by friends of mine who are participating in the Walk to End Women’s Cancers in June. In honor of close friends and all women out there, who have battled and are currently battling this disease, I am hosting a fundraiser for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

We will make four cards, all using the Strength and Hope stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalogue. Proceeds from this class ($8 from each participant’s fee) will be donated to the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation along with 20% of all product purchased at the event.
