Fussy & Fancy

That's me! :)  No, just kidding, fussy maybe yes but fancy, nah.

Ok, onto the serious stuff. How about a challenge over at Scrapbook Challenges?  I have this weeks technique challenge for you. Guess what I want you to do?  Fussy or fancy cutting of your paper.  See those big pink flowers on this LO?  They are actually from a piece of paper. So, my challenge for you is to cut away at a piece of paper and add it to you layout :)

K&Co. Pattern Paper and Stickers, Basic Grey Pattern Paper, My Mind's Eye Pattern Paper, Pink Pailsee Ribbon Pleats, Rick Rack, I-rock Pearls

Banner Time!

This weeks challenge over at Scrap Tiffany is "Banners or Pennants".  I had never made an actual banner for the wall so I thought this would be a great time.  I found these really cute digi's from Pink Cat Studio that I couldn't resist.  So, I made them into a banner.  I colored them with colored pencil's and Gamsol.  I'm still learning when it comes to coloring and maybe some day I'll be ready for Copics! They scare me.

Paper Towel Tutorial

What did you think?  That I was going to show you how to make paper towels? Nope, just something fun to try.  How about making some flowers from them. This is on Scrap Tiffany today.






Here's a few examples I made for some layouts.

Scrap your Scenery

This weeks challenge at Scrap Tiffany is "Scenery". I took this photo of a sunset view from our house and thought it would be perfect to scrap.  It was really difficult to find something that would flow with the colors of this picture.

Pink Paislee Pattern Papers, Prima Flowers and Embroidery, K&Co. Chipboard letters

Hope you all have a great weekend!  I know I will.  I'm heading to the Scrapbook Expo today in West Palm Beach with my two gal pals Cheryl and Susan. I'd link you to her but she won't get her blog to work right! ;)

Scrap Tiffany Sketch Challenge

Wow, where has the week gone?  I can't believe it's Friday already! 
I almost forgot to post this weeks Scrap Tiffany challenge. It's a sketch challenge and as you will see I really scrambled it up a bit.  By the time I was done with it it had a totally different look ;)

Scrap Cosmo!


Well, today's challenge over at Scrap Tiffany is to use SCRAPS.  I happen to look in my scrap box and I was SO excited to find that I had a ton of Cosmo Cricket Material Girl Scraps!!!  Lucky me :)  I did find one last whole piece for the background and I had quite a few of the chipboard embellishments too.  I put them all together and here you have it!
