Megan had a little lamb.
Happy Friday!! I did this layout for Jann's Stash Diet on SIS tv forum. This was to use nursery rhymes and paint. I had this paper for a long time and am glad I finally used it. It was perfect for this theme. Also I tried bubble wrap painting for the first time. I need a lot more practice though...

Budding Artist
My dd asked Santa for a paint set. I scrapped a photo of her first piece. She got this done the next day and it didn't take her that long to finish it. She has painted 3 more since than. It is something I can't come up with and it really amazes me how she creates them. She can't really explain it to me though. This pad is 24' x 18'... it's big. I think she would make a better scrapper than me. But so far she has no interest. I used some scraps to decorate this page. Also I used crayon resist technique, the current challenge on Method Playground, to create the frame. I drew lines with a blueish color crayon and painted with water down acrylic paint over the lines to create painted wood frame feel.

Silly Musician
Here is my latest layout. I sanded the photo edges and applied gold ink on the title chipboards. Done based on 52 Weeks...52 Sketches #1. They launched a brand new site this year. So nice!

2 Layouts
Happy Monday! My first one tonight was actually done last night. It was based on 52 Sketches...52 Weeks sketch #52 and inspired by Jewel's song, 'hands'. This is the song of the week on Scrapping the Music. And the second layout was done for Dreamgirls challenge. It is to use the word 'new' and make it black/white layout. And handmade embellishment is the only additional color. I think I used one of the corner stamps for the first time.

Sand
Here is the page I just finished based on Page Plans sketch #38. I am still not sure about my paper choice but I thought I would have to use them sooner or later. There we were playing on the beach in February! Oh how I miss that !

2 Layouts
I created 2 pages today. The first one was based on a sketch from Scrappy Times. And the second one was done for Butterfly Crafts' challenge. It was to create a page about favorite 2008 momories. I've had this camera I am using for a while but never uploaded the program because I was able to use the program I already had from my old camera. I finally uploaded the new program and it upgraded what I had. AND I dicovered this feature. I inserted the text on the photos!!

Happy New Year! and my first LO
Happy New Year! I still hear fireworks outside... must be a left-over from last night. We had our New Year dinner (black eye peas) at my in-laws and I am posting my first LO of the year. Is this a good start or what !? When it snowed last month, the snow remained for a couple of days. The second day, it turned into ice. My DD gathered some ice and made this tiny snowman. She was so proud of it. As soon as I got home from work, she took me to the back and showed it to me. Her school was closed that day. She thought that baby snowman was calling out "mama". Any way this LO was done based on 52 Sketches...52 Weeks sketch #52. Love this sketch! I learned this ribbon flower on the Pretty Committee.
