A LO I love and one not so much

This layout was made using the sketch for 3/9/11 at Let's Scrap. I really really love how it came out. I cut the snowflakes with my Winter Lace Cricut cartridge and embellished them with white applique, stickles and rhinestones. I stitched the silver scalloped border and added snowflake brads. I used some rub-ons from my stash to add some titles. I think this was a really great sketch that made the whole layout just come together so easily.

This layout I really really struggled with. It is also based on a Let's Scrap sketch from 2/24/11 but I never completed it in time. I used this grid paper because I have seen so many layouts where people have used it and I really liked it. I had a hard time with it though. I cut my fossils from the Dinosaur tracks cartridge and embossed them with a cuttlebug folder. I found the stickers used in the title on clearance at Hobby Lobby. They are DCWV safari kids collection. The dinosaur border is cut from a paper pack I picked up from Me and My big Ideas. It's really kind of simple but it took me forever!
