Scrapals Week 4, 2010 Callenge - Finish what you Started

Hi All - can you believe we are already at week 4? This week I challenge you to finish something you started. It could be a project you started and set aside, using a kit you purchased with something in mind and never did, it could even be paper you bought with something special in mind and never used. This week you will get 5 points for each project you finish for a max of 3 projects (or 15 points). Finishing cards will be worth 2 points so you can finish 8 cards to get your 15 points. Below is a mini album the shape of a purse I started OVER a year ago and just finished this week. I plan to give it to my niece for her Birthday in March and let her pick out her own pictures. I have SO many unfinished projects so don't be surprised if you see this challenge again in the future.

Purse Gift Card Holder using Make the Cut software

When I first saw the purse gift card holder Dawn at Stampin Up , made with the Big Shot Top Note die cut, I knew I had to lift this project. I decided to make a more playful topper to use up some left over birthday paper and it was an opportunity to play with the new software I bought called "Make The Cut". I just love out this turned out. Leave me a comment with your email addy if you would like me to send you the .mtc cut. Go to Dawn's youtube video for details on how to put the purse together. ~~~Thanks for looking~~~

Cuttlebug Spot - Party Favor Challenge

This week's challenge at the Cuttlebug Spot is all about Party Favors and how could I resit? I love making party favors!! This is a simple candy bar wrapper made to fit a standard size Hershey bar. The baby and Thank you are from Cricut's New Arrival Cart and I used the bubble embossing folder on the cardstock to give it texture.

Scrapals Week 2, 2010 Callenge - Becky Higgins Multiphoto Sketch

My 2010 New Years Resolution was to begin to downsize my house to make room for my Mother In Law and her caregiver who we plan to move in within the next 6 to 12 months. For those of you who have seen my scrap room can attest to the fact it will probably take me 6 to 12 months to get through it all and maybe longer if I keep stopping and browsing through my old scrapbooking magazines. However, this week’s challenge comes to your straight from one of those old magazines – the July 2009 issues of Creating Keepsakes using Becky Higgins multiphoto sketches. This week’s challenge is to create a two page layout using one (or more) of the sketches below for 5 points per two page spread for a maximum of 3 two page spreads (or 15 points).
