Precious Memories LO for Lasting Memories Scrapbook Challenge

Hello :) How are you this cold weekend? I've been trying to stay busy scrapping when I can. This layout came about from this week's challenge over at Lasting Memories Scrapbook Layout Challenge. The theme for February has been - Black + White + one other color and this week that color is Lilac!

 Our granddaughter Jessica with her daughter, our great granddaughter Ava having a special moment together. I loved these photos as soon as I seen them on Facebook and knew I would be scrapping them at some point. Found the lilac butterfly paper in my original 100 Pattern Paper pile (yes still have it separate and still working through it :) Also came up with the white border piece from the same pile, I punched with one of my favorite punches.
Looked through my stash for the lilac pieces to embellish with. Found this lilac flower I created awhile back in a stampin up class. So I got to use this for LOAD219: Day 17: Use flowers on your layout.

So created a fun cluster with a handmade flower, buttons, pieces from the frames pack in my kit and the black dazzles stickers. Thank you for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing what you create with this fun challenge you have till Saturday to play along with us over at Lasting Memories.

Daddy's Helper LO for Funday Friday

Good Morning and welcome :) Today is Funday Friday over at Jo's Scrap Shack and with the theme of Anything Goes. Our sponsor for this week's challenge is Little Blue Button Stamps. I used one of their newest digi stamps: Teapot House for my layout:

With the floral bacground of the digi stamp thinking a garden layout would enhance the stamp :)

A close up of the stamp , embellished with buttons and a sticker too :) This layout was created using the prompt for LOAD219 Day 21: Creating contrast by using small and large embellishments on your layout. Using the digi stamp for the large embellishment and the buttons and sticker for the smaller embellishments.

 My journaling. I used my current counterfeit kit: Springtime Fresh.

Mother's Day layout or Sketch N Scrap challenge

Good Morning and welcome to the 2nd layout challenge over at Sketch N Scrap. Heather has this cool sketch for us to play with :

 

 This is what I created using the layout:

 A couple of pictures of Tammy and Brandon Mother's Day 2018. I was glad to have this frame paper in my current counterfeit kit: Springtime Fresh for this layout, it worked out perfectly with the sketch. Using washi tape for the border below the title. Adding small clusters to the layout.

 I used silver metallic thickers for my title. This came about with the LOAD219 prompt for day 12: Tin Man prompt :) Scrap something or someone you love that was easy :) Techniques was using silvers or metallics :)

 My journaling

Close up of the picture.
  Thanks for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing what you create with this fun sketch over at Sketch N Scrap.

Love Hoodies for Use Your Stuff Challenge

Good Morning and welcome to this week's challenge over at Use Your Stuff challenge blog. This week's challenge is Hearts and/or Red/Pink. Lots of heart doilies and lots of red used on this layout:

 I love Hoodies! I do they are nice an cozy, always have a front pocket to add anything I may need, usually my phone or my camera and they keep me warm. I will wear a hoodie sooner that I would a jacket, summer is the only time I don't wear them. Now I'm on the lookout for a Christmas Hoodie :)

The golden background paper came from my current counterfeit kit: Springtime Fresh and the prompt idea came from this month's LOAD event of Red Ruby Scissors. LOAD219 Day 7: Story: Scrap about a favorite wardrobe accessory or outfit or Technique: Use red and sparkle on your layout. So I got both prompts on my layout :) Lots of red and lots of sparkle :)
Thank you for stopping by today :) I look forward to seeing your take on this fun challenge over at Use Your Stuff

Authentic Vintage Items for a Lasting Memories Scrapbook layout challenge

Hello and happy Sunday to you :) Quick stop in today to show you the layout I created for this week's challenge over at Lasting Memories Scrapbook Layout Challenge. Our theme for February is Black + White + one other color. This week's challenge color is green! So I went through my counterfeit kit: Springtime Fresh and pulled out the black N white papers and the green too and got a few to work for my grid layout:

 This layout came about from inspiration from the current LOAD event LOAD219 Day 9 prompt: Glinda the Good Witch: Story: Scrap a story about something good. Technique: Make your layout pink and sparkly.... or don't, whatever you think is good. And I think this is a good way to do a masculine layout :)
The grandson doing some good helping out at the NCC8 artifact fair for some community service hours for a merit badge.

My counterfeit kit had some fun vintage style papers in it using a light green, black n white polka dot and the green dusting newspaper print for my blocks and I used a green background came up a bit darker and of a grayer color in the photo than what it looks like in real life. Used some black mulberry paper to mat the photos and punched a few hearts and stars to scatter about the layout. Added that bright green ribbon for more texture on the layout :)
Thank you for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing your creation for this fun challenge over at Lasting Memories Scrapbook Layout Challenge.
