I used some brand new Authentique papers & letter stickers that Robbie helped me pick out at a wonderful scrapbook store we visited on my birthday. I added a few pieces of memorabilia from the weekend - the Hello Kitty clothing tag from my new PJs, the fortune from my Chinese cookie, and the museum logo cut from a brochure. I also added some ric rac and a few flower stickers.
Journaling reads: My birthday weekend started out Friday evening when Robbie took me to P.F. Chang's where we split the VIP Duck to celebrate Grandma's birthday. Saturday we saw the Dallas Summer Musical production of Guys & Dolls then headed to Waco and dinner at the Elite Circle Grill. We stayed in the Verandah Suite at the Bed & Breakfast at White Rock Creek and watched the 9 to 5 movie. Sunday we toured the Toy Tech exhibit at the Dr. Pepper Museum, had lunch at Logan's, and shopped for me some new clothes. Monday we stopped at Crop, Paper, Scissors and the Brazos Bookstore before lunch at Buzzard Billy's & the drive home to Allen. Robbie made biscuits for supper to top off a wonderful weekend!
Did you notice that cute pink ric rac on my layout? That was part of the wonderful prize I won from Ellyn's Trim Explosion Giveaway. I met up with her Tuesday and she had this lovely box all ready for me.
Inside I not only found a wonderful collection of ribbons, trims and ric rac, but a fun yellow & gray mug rug that Ellyn had quilted just for me! Thanks so much for this wonderful prize Ellyn, I'm already enjoying it.
Anyone else scrapping recent photos, new products, and prize winnings together this week?
Glad your birthday weekend went so well. I'm just trying hard to gather stuff for WITL right now!

ReplyDeleteSounds like a glorious and very full birthday weekend. I'm very impressed on how quickly you got the layout done and obviously you don't need to scraplift, it's great!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have a wonderful birthday. I'm impressed at the speed that you did your layout, I usually don't get things scrapped within the same year. Wonderful layout!

Well that sounds like a wonderfully planned birthday! I love your page (I really love the Authentique line!)
ReplyDeleteI am starting to plan for tomorrow when I'm finished with WITL, and I just got back from my LSS where they had %40 for their "friends & family" which they do once a year (I got lots of great stuff :).
