Love of a Family Layout
By Elena Olinevich
“When I was a child I used to play with paper dolls and created them the dresses and other clothes. My kids are not interested so much in this good idea. Anyway, I decided to create something that will remind me of the past.
Moreover, I decided to use the picture of my kids.
I am lucky to have a girl and a boy as my kids. They are so different and allows me to create with flowers and with something with no flowers at all.
Anyway, for my background, I used the floral paper sheet from Penny’s Paper Doll Family collection
I made fussy cutting, paper layering and die cutting - my favorite steps to enjoy the papercrafting with Graphic45
I love the colors this collection has, they look vintage and reminds me
about the old family albums I looked through at my Granny’s house.
I wanted to use only the paper but decided to add flowers as the embellishments
You can also check the video tutorial I made for this Layout below." Elena

Happy Family Cards
By Kathy Clement
Tips:
To add depth and dimension to this simple card design, I double matted each card layer. This keeps the layers from getting muddled. It also gives the focal image on the card the appearance of having been framed.
Cut doilies in half to get more mileage out of them. I tucked half a doily above and below the focal image.
Create a custom doily by adding designer paper to the solid center. To do this, I lay my doily on top of the paper, traced around the inner edge of the doily, then cut the circle out with scissors.

What a sweet layout. Such cute kids. The theme is perfect for children's pictures. Love the colors and the layers.
What a fun use for that cute collection. You don't see paper dolls much anymore.
I agree, the colors in this collection are awesome. I just want to get home from Thanksgiving dinner so that I can go slowly through the videos and blog for today. Don't tell my family that I said that! Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Love the layout and the cards are great.

Oh so beautiful, projects and collections. xxx
Love the cards. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
I know it's too late to "win," but I still wanted to say how gorgeous the projects are ladies! Thank you for sharing! Kathy- I especially appreciate the tips (I love little "bullet points"). They explain succinctly why that card is stunning to me, and how it's not too "busy." I often still have trouble when layering things- I go one... or ten.., steps too far, lol! Elena- Your children are so beautiful; especially those innocent faces- I wonder how many mischievous things happened while you attempted (and succeeded in) getting that perfect shot! Your scrapbook layout is a visual feast, and I'm sure it will be treasured by both of them!
Adorable layout for my family photos..
Love the Penny's Family set - thanks for sharing these wonderful ideas!
I just love that layout and that beautiful card. Excellent!!!
Henderson Elizabeth Dr joy is a trust worthy spell caster and he will be of great help to you. I never believed in spell casting but After 4 years of marriage my husband left me because I lost my womb, and i was unable to give birth to children. I felt like my life has come to an end, and i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time, but thanks to this spell caster called Dr joy whom i met online after my friend Becky Ross told me how he also helped her to bring back her husband in less than 2 days. I believed her and decided to give Dr joy a try and i contacted him on his email joylovespell@gmail.com. and explained my problems to him. He laughed and told me that In less than 2 days, my Husband will come back to me again, and that he will restore my womb and i will give birth to children. At first i thought it was a joke but i took courage and believed as Dr joy has said and it did happen just as this Great spell caster said, My husband called me and was crying, begging for forgiveness. I forgive him and today i am so glad that all worries and problems has gone away, and we are even happier than before, another good news is that i am pregnant now, and very soon we will have our baby. Dr joy is really a gifted and a powerful spiritual man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man. I advice you all If you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster to solve all your problems just Contact Dr joy on his email on joylovespell@gmail.com. because he will always help you to solve all problems. Once again thank you Dr joy. Thank you, thank you. you can also call him or add him on Whats-app: +2347088404185.
