International Walk to School Day layout

I made a layout for some pictures from our elementary Walk to School Day (see bottom for what that is), using my new Suburbia cartridge and the Pooh Font for my title letters.  I was going for kind of an old-fashioned collage feel to the layout and the image of the little boy and the vintage camera on Suburbia were perfect!  I'm really excited about this cartridge and have lots of layouts planned for it!!!

My paper and the globe sticker are from Echo Park's This and That Charming collection.  I love the newsprint paper on the photo mats, and thought that added to the vintage old scrapbook feel I was going for.  Sorry the pics are so dark-spring has retreated and left us a last blast of snow and lots of rain (and no sunshine for taking pictures)!  It was 85 degrees on Monday and by Wednesday the temperature was in the 30s!    I'm going to link this to the Celebrate The Occasion anything goes challenge this week.

Our elementary school is trying to help students be healthy by encouraging walking to school for those who live in the immediate neighborhood.  In the spring and fall, the walking school bus gets many kids walking or biking, supervised by volunteer parent walkers.  The whole school celebrates International Walk to School Day in the fall with an all-school walk to school starting at a local plaza, accompanied by the high school drum line!

More fun with Camping Critters on today's layout!  I cannot believe I waited for so long to get this cart, thinking I didn't need it.  It is SO fun!  I had a few more pictures from our canoe trip in June to scrap and used Camping Critters and Everyday Paperdolls.  The moose with the map and signs are from Camping Critters, while the canoe and paddles are from EDPD.  The title is actually the wood grain font from the Pooh Fonts cart.  I inked everything up with lots of brown chalk ink to give the edges some definition.

Spring layout (with Pooh and Friends)

It is spring here in the Midwest and so pretty!  All my tulips are in bloom!  (The downside is the pollen is ALSO in bloom or whatever pollen does...but I digress.)  We've been outside having fun a lot, so I made a layout for some of these pics using Pooh and Friends.   Between the springy paper colors and the cute Pooh characters I was definitely feeling high on happy (as my kids would say)!  Since I've been digging into my Disney carts for a bunch of layouts, I got inspired to use them on a non-Disney layout as well.

Paper-background paper is The Paper Studio, print on photo mats is October Afternoon, rest is scraps

Edited to add:  Pooh, Tigger, and Roo each represent one of the kids romping outside (they will know which one they are :0)

Garden Grill-Disney layout

I was so happy with this layout that I made at the crop I went to this weekend!  Mickey is cut from Mickey and Friends at 5 inches.  His apron, baker's hat, grill, and kitchen utensil are all cut from Everyday Paperdolls,.  I added the grill, since the resturant we were at was the Garden Grill in Epcot, where you meet some of the characters.  (There will actually be more pages from Garden Grill, because we got to meet Chip and Dale there too!)  The paper line is called Pinecone Press (I think) and I bought it at Archiever's in the Disney section.
