Just Because

It seems every layout I make is for a challenge or a design team. This layout I made "just because". It is of two grandsons on the first day of school this year. I used the August kit from Artful Delight, plus ribbon purchased at Ben Franklin and a die cut (scissors) from my stash.

Artful Delight - Day 3

The challenge for day 3 of Artful Delight's Birthday Bash Blog Hop is to use the colors kraft, pink and white. I choose to make a layout of my oldest daughter with a picture taken in 1974. (This is the same daughter pictured in the layout made for the day 1 challenge.)

Cardstock - from my stash
Butterflies - EK Success punch
Title and flourish - K&Co.
Flowers - from lei purchased at $ store.
Gems - from stash

Artful Delight Birthday challenge #1

Challenge #1 at Artful Delight's Birthday Bash blog hop is to use this sketch.

I created a layout of my daughter's visit to the Crazy Horse monument in South Dakota.
 

All items used except adhesive are from Artful Delight's August kit.

Frames and Flowers

The challenge this week at Lasting Memories is "Frames and Flowers".  Lasting Memories is all about layouts - my favorite thing to create.
 
I used the sketch from Sketches in Thyme (#56) to create this wedding layout. The background is misted in blue and purple. Painted the chipboard frames with same shade of blue and then sprayed with glimmer mist to add shine. I am also entering this in Scrapbookers Anonymous challenge to use chipboard, the more the better. Besides the frames, the letters are chipboard.

The challenge at Lasting Memories ends at 9 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 1st.  Come on over and join the fun.

Supplies used:


Cardstock - recollections
Chipboard frames - from stash
Glimmer mist in marshmellow - tattered angels
Patterned Paper - DCWV Stack 6
Flowers - Prima
Gems - Bead Designs (from Hobby Lobby)
Chipboard Letters - K & Co. Wedding Collection
Flower ribbon - (from Ben Franklin)

I Do

Challenge #51 at ScrapFit is Salt & Pepper plus one other color (all hues). I picked green at my other color in this layout of a cousin's wedding in the 1950s.
