Petting Zoo

Paper Lovin' Gals has a wonderful challenge... don't fence me in....& on the blog it says to go with your first impression. :)  So, mine is a day at the petting zoo, a few years back.  I incorporated a "fence", and some of the beautiful colors, they show on their blog to give inspiration. :)  Here is my take:

tree trimming

Lasting Memories Layout Challenges has a great "Layering Up" challenge.  I "lifted" a lovely layout at the scrap room blog by Jenny (FOTM).....I liked how she was able to incoporate so many pictures in one page.  It inspired me to try my hand at her idea as well. :)  I love to layer everything so Lasting Memories challenge was a great one for me. :)
Here is my layout

Tree Trimming

The Scrap Room Blog has a great challenge going on, "scraplifting", they have several wonderful layouts from their DT to choose from...I chose to scraplift from this lovely layout,

So here is my take: :)

bunny card

Delightful Challenges has Easter Treats as their challenge.  So here is my entry with my Some bunny loves you card, I am making this year for Easter greetings. :) 

thanksgiving after dinner

Sketches with a Twist has this really cool sketch, and the twist is that you need to use 3 embellishments that are all the same. :)  I needed this inspiration to start some Thanksgiving layouts. :) 

cards

I saw two similiar ideas on Pinterest, and decided to make a couple cards like the ones I saw.  I WISH I wrote down the people's site I saw them on, but alas, I cannot give credit where credit is due.  Anyhow I was please with how these two cards turned out.  I am entering them in the ANYTHING goes challenge, at Unique Crafters Challenge Blog....

tp album

Unique crafters Challenge has a wonderful challenge right now where anything goes.  So here is my TP album, I just made to put pictures of our trip to Hawaii in ... :)

paper board album

This turned out just wonderful. I am teaching a class with it.  I have used paper board, for the outside shell and covered it with pretty paper.  I have tied the whole thing together with a ribbon.  The inside pages are all folded into an envelope shape, so that you can decorate the outside of them, and insert something inside. :) I am entering this in the challenge at Unique Crafter's Challenge where anything goes. :) 

pip double layout

Sketches in Thyme has a wonderful double layout idea.  I am in desperate need to scrapbook some of the pictures of our puppy when we got him, so this worked perfect for me.  :)  I wanted to keep this layout simple with clean lines...so the pictures at the ocean with Pip our puppy would show up nicely. 

This is the sketches in thyme layout idea
Here is my take:

pippin our pup

I have been needing to do a layout (s) :)  with some pictures of our newest family addition.  Pip the  pound Pup and Lasting Memories has a great page "idea" this week....Pawsitively Sweet....so here is my take on that idea, with our sweet new puppy- Pippin (ie: Pip) when we brought him home.
