Challenge Layouts

I am so glad I've gotten back into scrapbooking.  I didn't realize how much I was missing it until I started back.  I've been on Gotta Pixel lately and doing some of their challenges.  Here is what I've done lately.

This is for the What the Flick Challenge.  They had the movie poster from the 3D Titanic movie and we had to do a layout inspired by the poster.  This is mine.  I used Connie Prince's  My Everything.

I did this one for the Sunday Brunch Crunch challenge.  I didn't make the chat on Sunday, but I did grab the template and did this layout.  I used Connie Prince's kit Hearts Blessings, and the template is by Colies Corner.  

Thanks for stopping by!

Challenges

I completed two challenges on Gotta Pixel last night. One was a speed scrap and the other was a scrap with a list. Here are my layouts.

This one was done for the speed scrap. The theme was "Stop and smell the flowers." The kids had just has pictures done at the daffodil field, so I went looking for those. Brodie is an active child, he doesn't like to be still for long. This day, he didn't want his picture taken, but we still got some cute ones.

This one is of the girls on Easter Sunday. They came over after church. They both looked so cute. Xandra has mischief in her eyes!

Page Map Challenge and another

In the page map blog, Becky Fleck is holding a challenge. I don't usually see these in time to get in on them, but this one I did. It ends tonight, but I was able to begin this layout earlier this week. I had to wait until today to get the picture off my parent's computer. This is actually the second layout I did, the first one wasn't quite what I was looking for. I'm still tweeting that one.

Anyway, here is the layout I came up with us. Of course the picture is of Jesse during a 4th of July picnic at Mom & Dad's house. She was eating BBQ ribs for the first time and decided that she loves them! (My mom makes the best homemade BBQ sauce!)

I also did this layout yesterday. It uses the Allstate slogan, You're in Good Hands. It was for the Motto/Slogan challenge at Stuff to Scrap. The pictures are of my parents with half of their grandchildren/great grandchildren. I'm going to finish it off as a 2 page spread with the other half of the kids.

Challenges!

I have been killing two birds with one stone lately. I'm using my Sketchapalooza class to do some challenges on Stuff to Scrap (STS). Works out well. Here are some that I have done.

This is my sister's family. I am going to use this for the title page of their section of my album. It was also for a color challenge on STS. The colors were orange, blue and green. I used all but the green.

This is my sister's middle son, Brodie. He is so funny and all boy. This was for a Use it or Lose it challenge on STS. They give you a mini sample kit and you have to use all the pieces in the kit. I had finished all my sketches from the class, so I went over to Feeling Scrappy's blog site and looked for sketches there. I found a good one!

Challenges

I love doing challenges for scrapbooking. Unfortuately I haven't had a lot to time lately to do any. But I saw some on Sisterhood of Scrap, and decided it was time to pick it back up. They have a November Online Crop going on and there were quite a few challenges. I was able to get 5 of them done. Hope you enjoy them.

Here is Challenge 1. The challenge was a sketch designed by Sarah Slade. I used a digital kit by Raspberry Road Design called Big Boy. This is my granddaughter riding on a car.

This is Challenge 2. Use the word believe in the title. I used a sketch by Jayne Jones from the Sketchapalooza 2 class from Feeling Scrappy (they have Sketchapalooza Class 3 schedule, so check it out.) The digital kit is from Kim's Scrappin' called Christmas Morning. These are my sister three boys with Santa (my dad) on Thanksgiving. He made a special appearance that day for the kids.

The next challenge I did was challenge 6. The challenge was to use an embellishment as a letter. I haven't done this before, but liked the way it turned out. I used another sketch from the Sketchapalooza Class by Amy Bell. The digital kit is by Kim's Scrappin' Fall Splendor.

The last challenge was Challenge 9. I had to use the word "fun" in the title. My first thoughts were of the pictures here. I used a sketch by Jayne Jones for the Sketchapalooza Class. The digital kit is by Tracy's Design called Big Bounce Fun Zone.
