WHAT A WEEKEND

Just returned from an outstanding scrapbook weekend that included my mom and GiGi!

We all had a blast and I was able to complete some challenges.  My friends could not believe I was designing some of these pages.  A huge thanks to the blogs for making me work outside of my comfort zone.

First challenge: Sketch In Thyme
This is so not me... ribbon, flowers, pearls  OH MY

Second challenge: BE BOLD


I used swap pieces from IASST.  Then my friend gave me her animals she cut using the Cricut.  I feel the bright yellow is very bold along with the different patterns in the title.




Third Challenge : Sketch-N-Scrap
I love this sketch; and I love what I did with it.  The colors are bright.  The seagull adds so much to tell the great story of the seagull crashing into the pole at the playground. Plus I used the picture I took of the sign as the title.

Fouth Challenge: another Sketchabilities

Pictures to document our boat ride to Mackinaw Island this past summer... my boys love it.  I was REALLY out of the comfort zone with the stickles. 

 
 
That is it for now :)  So glad I was able to work on some challenges and look forward to more soon

  8. What a great idea to use the photo of the sign for your title, I never think about taking pictures of signs but it sure helps to remember the details of your day. Thanks for playing along with us at SNS.x
