Spring Layout - and the Classic Car detail Girl
A fun layout that I created as a "practice page". I haven't scrapped in a few weeks so I thought it would be fun to create a layout with some pictures that I wasn't afraid to alter. The nature photo was taken by Matthew (9) and I used it to make my tree. The trunk was cut from chipboard. The photo of Zak and Stripe had a distracting background, so I just them out of the picture. This was so much fun to make! I love making my own handcut embellishments like the big tree.
A bit overcast in Calif. today so my photo is dark....so much brighter in real life. I sure hope our sunshine returns soon.
Earlier today, I spent some time working on some detail pieces for the '68 Camaro. Ssssh, don't tell Richie that I do enjoy getting to help with the detail work. His interior restoration is almost complete. This is a photo of me cutting some wood grain contact paper for the console pieces.

Your scrapbook page is too cute! I love it!!!!!
Irene....I LOVE your page and your handmade embellishments! Good for you helping your husband with his car! I didn't do much of anything on my husband's car. Of course the difference is you are resorting a car and he basically gutted (literally) his to make it lighter and made it into a race car.
He wants to get something like a 69 Firebird or Camero to restore for our daughter who will be 16 in 6 1/2 years:) I don't have a problem for that because when she gets older she will probably say something like..."but all my friends have power windows" then she won't want it, and I can have it.
I just realized I was rambling on a blog and not a MB. Better go!!!

Its probably good that you helped Rich with the wood grain paper...your a professional paper cutter!!! LOL!!

What a cute page Reen! Love that clever tree!!! Richie is a lucky man. I bet his car is looking pretty spiffy by now.
