Challenge 9!! :D

Here's my layout for Challenge 9:


Wow!! This was a fun page to do, hard but fun!!

The bottom right hand side is the first of 4 generations on this page. These are my grandparents who split up many years ago, before I could even remember. So, it's almost odd to me to see their young faces so close together. Above them, and the top photo on the right are their 3 children. The black and white photo is them as children and the color photo is the last picture (that I know about) of the three of them together before my mom (the one on the left in both photos) passed away. Below them is a photo of the third and fourth generations at the time of this photo. There are 5 grand children and 1 great grandchild so far!

My metal piece is the frame my grandmother is in. I think the flowers are pretty visible. I'm counting the sheet music and instruments as my retro items if the metal piece can't count as both. The lace is the purple that is poking out above and below the photo mattes.

To create this layout I used the following items:
Template by Sir Scrapalot
My Shabby Day mini by Wendy Page
Vintage Garden Fairies by Dani and Shabby Miss Jenn
Comfy Cozy by Wendy Page and Chaos Lounge
Perfect Pitch by Dan Morris (I recolored and aged these a bit)
Singing the Blues alpha by Microferk (also recolored)

:D

Huggles!!

Challenge 7 & 8!! :D

I'm having so much fun with the ADSR!! :D Challenge 8 was to do a Scraplift of one of our Scrapbooking Idol's layouts!! :D I had to go searching for an idol, but I found one, and a great one!! :D

I ended up making two layouts, because the first one went in it's own direction in a major way and couldn't get the word dream to match the theme... Here they are! :D

This layout:

was scraplifted from this layout here! Everything here except the strings is by Microferk!! The strings are CU by Bannerwoman!

This layout (which is the one I actually entered for Challenge 8:

was scraplifted from this layout here!
for the background, overlays by Amanda Rockwell and Atomic Cupcake. the felt stars are CU by Miss Tiina, the lined paper matte is by Cindy Doerksen, the lined paper, heart ribbon, wire frame, pink frame (I colored it), and wire alpha are from Pure Love by Luiza Garay, glitter plastic frame by Cathy Ann Designs, dreams alpha, and glitter spots (I desaturated them) from Tween by Libby Weifenbach, and stitched circle by Kari Henzelt.

Oh, and my challenge 7 layout, I don't think I posted that either!! (I was waiting for Linda to catch up!!) ;)



For this I used:
Template by Mrs. Wresh
All the required pieces from Sunshine Studio (The photo mattes are the darker paper from the kit)
I made the other pieces you see: the ric racs, the tag, and the blue paper on the strips...

It is so kewl to look at all of these in the gallery and see what all the different people have made just using this one kit!! REALLY KEWL!! :D

Huggles!!

WOW, I'm feeling like a blog hog!

LOL, that's what I get for slacking off on my posting. Heres my page for challenge 7.

We had to use all elements in a kit provided by Sunshine Studios. I recolored (or actually removed the color) from some of the elements and used a pic of my youngest daughter Stephanie in her new glasses. I had just played with this picture the night before and planned on making a page of her "rose colored glasses" over the weekend. How's that for perfect timing? I guess some times it pays to slack off. :)

I'll quit hogging the blog now, time to relax and slack off a little more.

Challenge 6 final page

LOL, and here is the my real page for challenge 6...

The first photo is the page I lifted from Sarah (hope you don't mind I posted it),

and the second one is my page of my granddaughter Halle in her miniture brides dress at my middle daughters wedding. She was dancing and posing for pics all night.

Challenge 6 BooBoo :)

Here's my "first" layout for challenge 6. To scraplift a page of Sarahs and flip vertically or horizontally and then tilt 45 degrees. Well I picked a page from Sarah's gallery at Polka Dot Potato and then went to shower before starting my page. In the time I was gone from the computer my daughter jumped on and when I came back I saw a different layout than the one I had picked and decided to to use that one instead. I then sat down and scrapped my little heart out so I could get it posted early just in case I needed to make any changes before the deadline.

After I posted my page, I got an email from Sarah saying that the link I posted didn't go to a page of hers. I went back and checked and the link worked for me and then I noticed the name on the page! It wasn't Sarah's layout. Apparently, my daughter had looked around while I was in the shower and the page I lifted was someone elses!!! LOL, I had to remove the page and then went back to my original choice, which I was positive was hers, it had a pic of Rachel in it.

So here is the page I made of my granddaughter Delayne in her baptism gown, which was made from my daughters and my wedding dresses.

LOL, I'm still laughing at this.

No pictures, challenge #5

This was a first for me. Making a page using no pictures. I used a favorite quote and scrapped around that. I love this quote because it reminds me of my dad. I was given the nickname "Bird" when I was very young and all my life that is what my dad called me. (Thus my screen name, ls-my first and middle initials, and bird my nickname) and I "hope" he knows how much I loved him amd miss him. I printed this one out and framed it also.

And before I start crying again, on to challenge 6...

Challenge 4

I had a blast with this challenge. I love altered art, but have only tried it once or twice before.

The cuties in the pic are my 5 grandchildren, Hayden, Halle, Eli, Owen and Delayne. I printed this one out (minus the journaling) and hung it in my computer room. I have pic's of them all over my house!
