Combined Challenges

I love challenges and it's even better when you can combine a few. Here are my latest that I've accomplished.
This one is for Let's Scrap's Blog Hop #6 to scraplift a layout combined with the recipe challenge from Challenge Masters.

And here's Let's Scrap Blog Hop #8 to create a travel layout using a travel quote provided. Plus I combined it with the May One Little Word Challenge at Challenge Masters.


Be sure and finish up all of your layouts for our blog hop challenges at Let's Scrap. It goes until the 22nd of May.

T - Tag

So Let's Scrap and show me what you can create!

National Scrapbook Day Coming Fast!!!

At Let's Scrap, we're going to celebrate National Scrapbook Day throughout the month. On Saturday there will be a few challenges and then we're having a blog hop. Be sure and come over and check things out!

Challenge Masters Design Team

I'm excited because I made it on the Challenge Master's Design Team! Right before I left for Paris, I got an email inviting me to be their Color Challenge Diva. I'm very excited to be a part of this team! A different set of challenges are posted every Sunday - the color challenge will be posted every 2nd Sunday. I love challenges as they force me outside my box. Can't wait to get my first one color challenge created so I can post it on Sunday. Be sure and check out the site. You won't regret it! Wahoo!

March Color Challenge

Okay ladies...here's this month's challenge. This month we're going to do a color challenge. Use this ad to inspire the colors you use on your layout.


And here is the layout I created with it. In person the color is red not this pinkish hue. DD was so mad when she saw that I scrapped these photos of her. I told her too bad, she'll appreciate them and laugh at them when she's older. She said she will always be mad I scrapped them. Oh well...


You have until April 5th (since I'll be in Paris at the end of the month) to accomplish this and post a link to it here and your name will go into a drawing for a RAK from me. Can't wait to see what you create!

Let's Scrap Weekly sketch and the March Challenge

Here is this week's sketch at Let's Scrap:


And here is my take on it. I just did the left side this month. I also combined it with Kristie's challenge to use a technique you've always wanted to try but have never done. I made 2 of the flowers and they were new techniques for me.


Cheri, at Let's Scrap is having a challenge through the month of March. She has some older sketches that are single layouts and she wants you to scrap 5 of them but the challenge is to create the other side of the layout to make it a double layout. For those that do five of them in the month of March, you will have your name in a drawing for a kit from one of our sponsors. I think it sounds like fun! I just hope I have time to get them all done. Come on over and give them a try. I look forward to seeing your work!
