Feeling Green?

I was when I made this Project Life spread.  On March 16th, there was a St. Patrick's Day festival in my local area.  I took a lot of pictures at the event, so I decided to do a whole 12 x 12 spread that focused just on the day...and since it was all about St. Patty's, I had to keep it green :o)

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you have a happy Friday tomorrow!

Tackling Some Challenges

Good morning, everyone.  I have two layouts that I'd like to share with you today.  They were both done for challenges over at Studio Calico.

This first layout was made for a scraplift challenge.  We were supposed to scraplift this amazing layout.  Here's my take:

For the second challenge, we were supposed to use a mask:

For the background I used a cool technique that was shown in a video by Corrie Jones on the Evalicious blog.

Thanks for stopping by...happy hump day!

Good Sunday morning, everyone....and Happy St Patrick's Day!  May your day be full of lots of green...

The Studio has a new sketch challenge up today...and I love the sketch.  I always love Valerie's sketches, though...Here it is:

And here is my layout:

Even though our Catalina trip was a few years ago, I still have some pictures to scrap.  This sketch just seemed perfect for my photos.

Hope you can play along with us this month.  Head on over to The Studio to see the other fabulous layouts that are featured!

I just wanted to pop in quickly and share a few different things that I've been working on recently.  The first is a layout that I made based on a Studio Calico sketch that I have been saving for a while.  Unfortunately, I can't find the sketch on the site, so I can't link it back.

 

And, I have a PL spread to share.  My week 10:

Good morning, everyone!

The Studio | March Recipe Challenge

Good morning, everyone!  Where is the year going?  It's March already!!  However, a new month means new challenges at The Studio.  Today's challenge is a recipe challenge that was created by yours truly.  I picked a fun, easy recipe that contained products that I felt certain almost everyone has in their stash:

*Kraft cardstock

*Mist or paint

*At least one tag

*At least 2 different types of alphas

I love the results from the design team!  Everyone on the team has such a fun, unique style, so you get so many different, cool layouts.  I actually created a layout that strayed a bit from my usual style:

Like I said, it's a bit unusual for me...and I hated it at first, but it's growing on me and I think I actually sort of like it now...

Please pop on over to The Studio to play along!
