  • Baby
  • Me
  • You
  • Smile
  • Encourage
  • Faithful

  • "Dream" was the obvious choice for my layout, as my youngest son is a dream come true, and answer to many, many prayers!

    Let's Get Sketchy November Wk 5 Scrap Lift Challenge

    The current challenge at Let's Get Sketchy celebrates that November has 5 weeks this year, and celebrates the previous work of their talented team members! 
     
    The challenge instructs  us to choose from the featured layouts and scraplift it with our own new layout!  Here is the layout that caught my eye:

    And here is my layout based on Sayaka's beautiful work!



    I really liked that she included 3 photos that made a nice square focal point, and so I decided to use 4 square photos!
      I mimicked her soft, layered background papers, and adhered my embellishments in similar locations!
     
    Check out the Let's Get Sketchy blog for great inspiration and challenges!

    Scrapbook Challenges FlashBack Friday #184

    I'm finally back to scrapbooking and posting on the blog!   Woohoo!  It has been almost a FULL YEAR since I posted here on The Papercrafting League, and I am praising the Lord that He has brought me back! 
     
    I decided to jump right in with a sketch challenge at Scrapbook Challenges, and worked from Sketch #184 in the November-December Flashback Friday challenge!  Here is the updated sketch from SC, and below is my one page layout!
    SBC_Sketch184
     
     
     
     
    I always love a sketch that allows me to use 3 or more photos! 
     
    The journaling section included in the sketch forced me to come up with more details than just the date!   Thanks, Scrapbook Challenges!
     
     
    I used American Crafts Junior collection papers, My Mind's Eye Lime Twist twine, Zots glue dots, Scenic Route Grafton Park chipboard, thickers vinyl alphabet stickers, and Queen & Co. washi tape.

    A Family Vacation: A Layout for Frosted Designs




    I created this layout specifically for the "All in The Family," challenge at Frosted Designs! 
     
    I enjoyed this challenge, and decided to write my own quote about family.  I truly feel my family is a gift from God.  In this layout, I featured photos from a family vacation with my husband, son and mom!
