Scrap Attack Sketch Contest - Page Maps





Here's my version of the latest challenge. While on vacation with my family in Hawaii my Mom and I would scrapbook every morning and almost every night. I carried along with me a print out of the pagemap challenge and was determined to capture some awesome pictures while on vacation and then post it to my blog.

I used a solid white piece of paper and my distress inks to alter the color of the background paper so that it matched the "sea glass" tiles used in the layout. The title was created with Grunge Board letters and distress inks. The large fish was also colored with the distress inks and then sprayed with glimmer mist.
I hope you enjoy the layout! Aloha! (Sorry, but the quality of the picture of my layout is not to my normal standards, but what the heck....I'm on vacation! :-) a girls got to do what a girl's got to do. hehehehe!


Here's a second version of the layout....just for fun!

PageMaps RW Laser Cuts Chipboard Contest

Ahhhh.....another PageMap challenge. I am so addicted to these challenges now. But, this time no running out and spending a million dollars to complete the challenge. This time I added a little bit to the challenge for myself....NO SHOPPING! Oh no...what did I commit myself to? With the added stress of not being able to buy new stuff for this one.....off to my mini scrapbook store also know as "my closet" to round up some supplies to get this done, all the while remembering there was a color challenge too! YIKES! I once had a vision to complete a mini album that doubled as a cookbook for my 21 year old. Of course when I had the vision (I don't want to say how long ago it was...) I bought all the essentials, but never completed the project (go figure?). What a better time than the present to use those supplies. So, with this layout I used the Nana's Kitchen w/ Glitter stack by DCWV to get me started. I also wanted to use these pictures of my little one holding a slice...

PageMaps Contest

My Memory Suite sketch contest Can you believe it's been six months since I've posted anything....WOW!!!! Now that doesn't mean that I haven't been scrappin', it just means I haven't had the chance to put anything up online. Here's why. In April I was making meatloaf for dinner. I put all the ingredients into a mixing bowl and dove my hands into it to mix it all up....all of a sudden....WOOOOOOOOOWW!!!! I dislocated my thumb! Yep...popped it right out! Yes, it hurt! So...here I am several months later with my hand in brace, numbness and tingling starting from the tip of my fingers that radiates up my arm and finally fades away once it hits my clavicle. I had x-rays taken, a MRI and a nerve conduction test. And the diagnosis.... Severe nerve damage that will take up to a year to heal itself. A YEAR!!!! But, I avoided having surgery and it will, in time, heal itself. Ahhhh! So...my friends/followers...I'm back in action!...

As promised!

    Wow...two posts in one day!!!    I was so excited about the sketch I turned right around and got busy.  So...as promised, here is the layout that I made from the sketch that I created earlier today.  The products I used were from the 35mm Studio Calico Monthly Kit.  I love the hexagon stamp.  I'd been looking for one for months so when I saw the one in their kit, I had to get the whole thing.  I hope you liked this sketch and layout....there will be more to come!  I'd love to see what you come up with from my sketch.  Add a comment to this post with a link to what you've created!
