This is my first try at making an easel card. I used the doodlecharms cricut cartridge to cut the spider.  This card is being entered at Cher's Studio.

Pumpkin Time


The challenge this week at Lasting Memories is to use fall colors and the above sketch. I made a layout of my grandson and his pumpkin in 2010. I used recollections cardstock, patterned paper from my stash and leaf ribbon from Ben Franklin (manufacturer unknown).

Cardstock - recollections
Ribbon - May arts
Patterned paper - from my stash
Sticking - white gel pen

You have until Saturday, September 24th at 9 p.m. EST to link your layout. Let's see your creations.

Big Ow!


This layout of my grandson (with the biggest goose egg I've ever seen) is based on the sketch from The Scrap Room Blog.

Party





This week's challenge at Papercraft Star is "Anything Goes". I made another layout from my friend's wedding - this time focusing on the cake and dinner.

First Communion






This layout is based on the September sketch at Artful Delight and is made using items in the August Artful Delight kit. I used tickets as journaling spots and am also entering this in Frosted Designs Fabulous Friday challenge to use Tickets, Stamps and Envelopes. The pictures are of me and various relatives in 1960.

Just Married


The sketch is from Stuck On U Sketches and the flowers are for the favorite embellishment challenge at The Paper Variety. The layout is of my father's cousin Alice's wedding in the mid 1950's.

Greatest


One of the challenges at The Paper Variety's celebration is to make a layout using only your favorite color. I made a layout that also follows the recipe at Purple Pumpkin for their September challenge - 1 lollipop flower, 2 doilies, 3 buttons. The picture is of my brother-in-law's great-granddaughters and their mom.
