BACK TO WINTERTHUR

Tonite I have a few more layouts from my visit to Winterthur.  The first uses sketch #29 from Scrap Africa and the monotone color theme from Scrapbook.com.

The Sketch:


The Color:


and with the color there was a twist - create a layout about something you love to do.  I love to go to museums.  

My Layout:

 

The next layout is also a monochromatic in that color, using Page Maps Sketch #1 from the May Scrapbook.com Challenge.

Here's the sketch:



And here is my layout:



The circles are done with Rock Candy Stickles and that great flower is by Pinque Peacock.

Hope that you have enjoyed a bit more of my visit to Winterthur.  Keep stopping by there are still several more photos to go!

PUTTING APRIL TO BED

I have one last layout to share with you for the month of April.  I used a sketch from The Memory Nest and it is Girls Only and Monochrome Color #2 for Scrapbook.com

Here's the sketch:








And here is the color:

There really isn't anything on this layout that I've never done and there isn't anything out of my comfort zone so no twist but the sketch was great as I was able to use 5 photos!  I have so many photos from my day at Winterthur so that is a plus.

Here's my layout:




Thanks for stopping by.  And don't forget - THIS Saturday is National Scrapbook Day.  At this point, the plan is to be scrapping all weekend...hopefully that will happen and I will have lots to share.

AT THE START OF SPRING

I am still scrapping the start of winter!  LOL!  I finally found the envelope of photos with the first snowfall of the season in it.  I went into my winter stash and picked out some paper and embellishments and got to work..

I started with a navy backing sheet to match the page that will go across from this one.  There was a really pretty SEI patterned paper of snow and trees that I decided would be perfect as it would pull the two pages together.  I had a great vellum quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson, some snowflake stickers, a title sticker from an Echo Park sheet and a Jack Frost puffy sticker that coordinates with the ones on the other page.  

And here it is:



I am entering this in the 3 Scrappy Boys Spring 2014 Crop First Challenge which calls for using stash that is at least one year old for this layout. The only new item on the page is the photos!  I suspect that most of the supplies used go way beyond one year old!  I am a terrible scrap supply hoarder!  

I am also entering this in Scrapbook.com April Monochrome Aquadoodle and Scrapbook.com April Boys Only.

Hope you all are enjoying a peaceful and blessed Easter.

Thanks for stopping by.

1 BEAUTIFUL DAY AT LUM'S POND

I did it!  I completed all the Scrap Our Stash Stash-a-Thon challenges.  This is challenge #14 First Birthday which called for using the #1 on your layout.  My main #1 is in the circle that begins the title but there are 2 others down at the bottom in the date.

I am also entering this in Scrapbook.com Monochromatic Challenge #3 with a twist to use a flower cluster and Scrapbook.com PageMaps #1 sketch which I rotated 1/4 turn clockwise.and Scrapbook.com Using Larger Photos challenge as the photo collage is 5x7 and Sketches4all Rachelle's May Flowers challenge.

So here is the Color:




Here is the Sketch:

And here is my Layout:


I hope you have enjoyed all of today's posts...and there may be more as I have a few other things I need to create for a party tomorrow at church.  Thanks so much for stopping by to share in my memories.

ALL OUT OF LOVE

Today's layout is using lyrics from the Air Supply song 'All out of Love' for the Colorful Creations November Song Challenge.  I used a sketch from Life.Paper.Scrapbook which I rotated 1/4 turn clockwise.  I created it using various shades of an aqua blue and a drop of navy for the Monochrome challenge at Scrapbook.com.

Here is the Sketch:


and here is my Layout:


I hope to get to some creating after dinner so check back in later or in the morning to see what I have come up with.

Thanks for stopping by.  Hope that you have had a fabulous weekend!

NOT A VERY PRODUCTIVE WEEK...

I noticed that I have not done a blog post since last weekend.  I have not been feeling well and haven't had much mojo so I apparently got very little done.  The only layout I see for this week was for the Colorful Creations Member Spotlight using this sketch:




And here is my layout:



I am going to enter this layout into Scrapbook.com November Boys Only challenge, November Hoarders challenge, and November Two Pic challenge.

I also just remembered that I created this for the Hair Pinterest Challenge for the crop on My Scraps and More.

I am also doing a linky party today for the first time...so I hope I do this right...




Hope you had a great weekend and are looking forward to a fun filled week!  Thanks for stopping by.
