I enjoy scraplifting. The current challenge at American Crafts is scraplifting. This was a great opportunity. Their blog is loaded with fabulous layouts and cards. I chose a layout titled "I'm a star" by Mary Jo posted on 5/6/10. And here is my version. (Supplies: papers: American Crafts, Basic Grey, die-cut: KDC, Thickers: American Crafts)

Cute Girl

I am so glad that the long weekend is finally here. I was so tired I slept in this morning. I just took the photo of this layout I created earlier this week. This was done based on the sketch from The Scrappiest. For the title, I chose "cute girl" because it was something I could come up with the letters left on the sheet. I am not planning to scrap much during the weekend. Have a nice Memorial Day!

Spring

I created this page for the current challenge at American Crafts. It is to create a Spring themed page using American Crafts products. These photos were taken at a park by our house. Less than a week prior, this tree had no leaves at all. I just love Spring :)

Easter

Boy, this was hard! This page was created based on the sketch from The Scrappiest. The sketch itself looks cute, but I had hard time choosing papers. I first cut up a Basic Grey paper and My Minds Eye paper. But the papers I thought go together didn't really go well. Anyway I cut up 2 more papers into triangles before I settled on these papers used. I'm glad I finished it though.

Teenage Girl

I scrapped this page earlier this week for the current challenge at ScrapFit. It's a cardstock only challenge. They let you use all the embellies you want but no patterned papers. I decided to have fun with this one and here is what I ended up with. I used a transparency frame over the photo. Then I added ribbons, chipboard pieces, rub-ons, etc.

Project 12: April

This is the monthly 2-pager for April. April came and went very quickly and May's half way over. I realize I haven't taken any photos this month yet. The papers and the color palette used here are not my usual choices. But it was kinda refreshing to try something different.

Self-portrait

Here is the page I created based on Sketch 64 from The Scrappiest. A new sketch will be released tomorrow and I wanted to finish this one up today.

5/9/10

I scrapped a couple of pages this week. The rest of them were done last weekend during NSD crop.

Chocolate Cake

I just finished this page using the sketch #63 from The Scrappiest. I put some scraps together to create this one.

Happy NSD !!

Hello my fellow scrappers! and Happy National Scrapbooking Day!! I am planning to scrap a lot this weekend :):) To kick off the celebration, I decided to participate in a blog hop hosted by Scrapbook Challenges. They have come up with this cute sketch just for the hop. The hop starts right here at Pamela's blog. After visiting all the DTs blogs, you can also participate it by creating a post like this. All the details and other participants blog links, as well as huge prize information can be found in this thread. I have joined their blog hop before and it was fun and inspirational to see lots and lots of different takes on the same sketch. So come join us!! Here is the sketch and right below is my take. We had some rain and it's cloudy. Sorry for the bad photo. If you are hopping, go back to this thread for the link to the next person.
