A bunch more layouts

Sharing a bunch of layouts! I honestly don't know where the time goes - I think I'm blogging reasonably often but then I realize it's been almost a month!!

This first layout uses a sketch by Candace Duffy (RAK Scraps August 2008 Sketch Challenge) and papers and elements from the Friends and Family kit by Amanda Sok.


I was prompted to do this layout after reading a challenge at Feeling Scrappy to scrapbook your quirks - and I decided to scrap one of my DH's quirks instead!

Quick update

Wow, I can't believe how quickly time is passing and how long it's been since my last update. We've been very, very busy - I've been especially busy at work and we've had lots to do on the weekends. I am still working on a freebie kit - look for the first post soon (I hate to post anything until the whole kit is finished and leave you hanging for days or weeks waiting for the next piece!).

I haven't had a whole lot of time to scrap, but here are a few recent layouts:

This digital layout was inspired by a challenge at Feeling Scrappy to use the word "new" in a layout. Credits:
Binder clip and rub on action by Atomic Cupcake
Folded flower action by Christine Smith
Doodles by Anna Aspnes
Life Journals Paper Templates by Mandy Steward
Burned Photo Effect and Mat by Paula Wright
Expressive Pages by Keri Scheuller
Pressed Petals Flowers by Brandy Hackman


This digital layout is based on a sketch by Jayne Jones and is from the July 2008 sketch challenge at Feeling Scrappy. Credits:
Cristine Smith color your own flowers and acrylic paint brush
Atomic Cupcake brads, bracket template, and the following actions: distressed edge2, crumpled and silver
ScrapGirls paper templates:
Antiqued by Shalae Tippetts
Fanciful by Amanda Sok


This layout just makes me giggle because it's so darn loud. It's based on an ad for a challenge at RAK Scraps. Credits:

Atomic Cupcake Painted Metal action

A few new layouts

Here are a few recent layouts! I'm working on an idea for a new freebie kit, too!

I did this digital layout for a challenge on Feeling Scrappy, where the instruction was to take a series of at least 5 photos over no more than a weekend. These are all the outfits DD wore in one day (Saturday). And I wonder why I have so much laundry to do....The layout was completed by using a premade template by Yin at Yin Designs and a paper template by Melissa Renfro at ScrapGirls (Downtown Collection).


This digital layout uses items from the Atomic Cupcake silver necessities kit and the Atomic Cupcake cracked action. I also used a number of grunge paper templates from Scrap Girls to create the background paper.


I completed this crazy layout for an ad challenge on RAK Scraps, using various paper textures from ScrapGirls.


This layout uses papers and elements from the RAK Scraps June Mega kit - I did it for the mega kit challenge. I also used a date stamp brush by Ariadna Wiczling (Scrap Girls).
