Love the glasses

Summer is the time when we get our eye exam and get new glasses.  I scrapped this page of me with my new glasses.

I used the Scrapbook Circle February sketch and supplies from their kit.

Card challenge

The challenge from Turtle Soup February Mini Crop was to create a card only using red and white.  I used the sketch from SID for my card.  Here is the sketch.

Here is my card.  I didn't want to make a valentine card and so I made it more masculine by heat embossing gears onto the octagons.  I used some iridescent  powder and some white powder.

Here is the inside.

I f you are looking for some challenges to do in your scrap room head on over to SID or Turtle Soup for some inspiration.

Adirondack Museum

My husband and I went to the Adirondack Museum fro a workshop to learn about questing.  This is the photo that I asked someone to take of us.

It was scraplifted from this LO from XOXO Scrapbooking.

I started out with my photo on the bottom right and then the rest of my LO just went all over.

I used the heart that I made from ribbon that I stuck on a gluber.  A gluber is a piece of very sticky plastic that you cover with whatever you want.  It is a circle and I cut it to a rough heart.  I thien covered it with some skinny ribbon.  I liked the height of it.  I made the heart for the Turtle Soup  Mini Crop challenge. 

Merry Christmas 2014

At SID there are new sketches at the beginning of every month.  Here is the double page sketch for February.

There is also a challenge at Turtle Soup to use an embellishment to help make your page.  Well I chose these clear swirls to add to my christmas page.

Check out both scrapbooking sites to see what challenge you may want to enter.

I am a BSA Leader

I have been a Boy Scout Leader for about 11 years.  In this photo I am walking in the 4th of July Parade with our Troop.

I used the color challenge from Challenge YOUrself.

I also used the sketch from Kitchen Keepsake.

We marching in the parade almost every summer.

 

Sunday was scrapping time for me

Here are a few of the LOs that I created today on this cold Sunday afternoon.

This Christmas page of my daughter was created from the SID February sketch. 

I loved all the flowers on the sketch and wanted to do this look on my Christmas LO.

Here is another Christmas photo of my daughter.  This LO was made with scraps left over from a holiday kit that was mostly pink. 

I used the February 15th sketch from Stuck?! sketches.  I loved the layering in this sketch.  By inking the edges of each piece of card stock it helps to show each layer.

Here are some LOs that I created for Kitchen Keepsake.

I used the same photos of my kids, husband and father-in-law in 2 different LOs.  you can see that I used different papers and embellishments with the same sketch idea.
