A Fun Day For a Ride

Good Morning and welcome to a new challenge over at Lasting Memories Scrapbook Challenge blog. This is the last challenge of this theme and this month :) I used a sketch over at Scrappin N Chattin yahoo group for my layout :)The theme is direction and the challenge is "ALL AROUND" - Anything Goes that shows Direction... or use CIRCLES on your layouts!!

This was created during LOAD1015 the 1st Day. I went rouge on the 1st prompt :) due to lack of time wanted to do up a summer layout quickly cause I had er pictures handy :) LOAD1015 was the A Pirate's Life theme LOAD. The 1st prompt was to be inspired by A Pirate's Life For Me:

If you had a pirate in your family tree, what would you want to know about them? Think of the legends that would be passed down, the items that would gain significance by their association with that figure of mythical proportions.

Let’s work this month at remembering that WE hold a special place in our own family history! Set out to tell your own story so that you can live on in your family’s folklore. Let’s work at US being the focus of our pages this month.

So what is legendary about YOU? Tell us a story today…

That was just a tad bit much for me to try to think about, locate pictures of and produce a layout in less that 24 Hours, so I went rouge! and got a great layout completed of Dave and Zachary together. Thank you for stopping by today and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world and look forward to seeing your creation from this prompt over a Lasting Memories

A Sketch for the September Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to September Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop.I'm following the very inspiring Julie and if you are coming from her blog then your on the right track :) but if not you may want to start at The Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog and get on board with the first stop on this month's blog hop. This is always a fun blog hop showing off the ladies creations from their current counterfeit kit. This month, you can choose to share any project you have made with your Counterfeit Kit Challenge kit which you have not shared on your blog yet. Your project could be related to any of the three challenges or maybe just something you made with your kit. As a reminder, here are the three challenges this month: 

• Challenge #1:  - Sketches! (Shimelle sketches)
• Challenge #2:  - Just One Lesson
• Challenge #3:  - Inspired by Kate Spade

I chose to use one of Shimelle's sketches for my layout :) Love a good sketch challenge. Now this layout includes that card I made for a sneak peek back on the 15th when I couldn't show the rest of the layout :)

Shimelle's Sketch to Scrapbook Page: Putting One Photo Center Stage
 This was such a cool sketch to use for this photo and for the card I made for Sketches in Thyme Project Life style. I used some of the Dazzles kit that was with in my kit of A Little Fall in the Air with some other papers from my stash in my kit. Glad to use up those chipboard pieces I got awhile back in a smashbook package of dodads :) A page that came together pretty quickly too just around a half an hour to create.

Thank you for stopping by and do continue on with the blog hop and see what Lisa has created she does so magnificent creations :) and you can see what she did create at her blog.
