Twilight Tuesday with ValeriGail

Hi everyone! Sorry for the late post today.... But since I am bringing this to you very close to sunset here, I am gonna theme it that way too! ;)

I've been dealing with some health stuff and have been in bed for some time.. I've been catching up on my reading, and am now on the last book in the Twilight series. I finished the third over the weekend. So, since I am all Vamped out, I am gonna bring them here too in the featured layouts! Today, is Twilight Tuesday! :)

First up, is



Love this picture of Bella and Edward. Its sensual with out going overboard. I really like how she's framed it out with the red leaves under the white frames. Great pop of color without darkening up the layout.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




This one totally makes me smile! I LOVE the title! Totally great set of pictures, but my fav is her friend kissing Edward's picture! I love how she's scrapped this, with the hands holding everyhting like a book. Very good play on the theme!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




How sweet!!! I think I would faint if my Hubby said this to me!! I love the brightness to this layout, and that it actually doesn't have any Twilight stuff on it, just a reference. Totally in love with the alpha here!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~





So, I've got to admit that pretty much through most of the end of the first book and the beginning of the second... I was leaning towards Team Jacob. Well, ok so the WHOLE second book, I was leaning towards team Jacob. Then I read the third book. ;) I've still got a huge soft spot for the character though, He's written with such depth. So, I had to feature this great layout dedicated to Team Jacob. I love the "Who's afraid of a wolf?" LOL Love the layers here and the Wolf pendant. The layout carries a very native american feel to it, holding on to the Jacob essence with out going too wolfy. :) Love it!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thats it for me today... I've got to get back to reading, the book is pulling me back in! HAHA. I hope you enjoyed the Twilight layouts as much as I enjoyed hunting them down.

Till next time...

Live, Laugh, Love.... and Scrap often!

Tuesday's Layouts with ValeriGail 2/17/09

Good Afternoon everyone!!

Christy and I will be swapping days. From now on, you'll get posts from dear old me on Tuesdays, and Christy on Wednesdays!

Today is my Birthday.. I am now officially in my thirties!! ROFL! Actually I am 34, so I've been in my thirties for a few years now. Its been a good day, and I'm thankful for another birthday to celebrate!

Anyways, on to the layouts...

The First Scrapper I am gonna feature seems to be a hidden gem, Seriously! I went to have a look at this wonderful page and found a full gallery of more wonderful pages!! You all should go check out her entire gallery!! Its gorgeous!



I love her layering, its absolutely wonderful!! The colors are great, I love the peachy pinks with the teal blues.. Think they are a gorgeous combination! Her elements are perfect, and I love her clustering. The title work is superb and the picture is Adorable!!! I totally love this page! Seriously, check out the rest of her gallery while your there leaving love for this layout... Its wonderful!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next up, we have another one I found today at DST.


I love multi pic layouts, I know I've said that alot on here. But this is a bit different than your usual multi pic. I love how she's used the pictures and the majority of the page, almost seemlessly connecting them. This looks like it could be a travel brouchure! I know I'd want to go visit this spot after seeing this! I love her journaling, and how she's highlighted the little surfer with the circle target and the two pictures in the circles. Love the flow of the bottom three scenes where he's trying to surf. Absolutly wonderful!!! Oh and I love the aplha she's used for her title too!! Gorgeous!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

:) thats it for me today! I'm gonna go spend the day doing absolutely nothing, except maybe a few rounds of sports on the Wii with the kiddos. Thats what I wanted for my birthday, a day of nothing important! LOL I hope you all have a great day too!

Till next time...

Live, Laugh, Love..... and Scrap Often!
