CSD 8x10 LO Challenge

One of the many challenges over Creative Scrapbooking Divas was to create a layout with a 8x10 pic. 
Alter a piece of raw chipboard
Use a tag
Use at least 2 buttons
Use at least 1 flower


 I always take advantage of Walgreens 8x10 freebies, so I had a couple of pics to choose from.  Ok so I didn't use 2 buttons and I don't have any raw chipboard to alter, but I'm still submitting it.  I think the purpose of challenges is to get you CREATING! LOL


The pic is of Dulce and Irene, my two beautiful nieces that I just adore.  This picture was taken at Newport, RI in November 2007.  I believe the paper is from Miss Elizabeth.  The "cherish and blessings" are Creative Memories stickers.  Everything else is from my stash.

CSD Blog Hop Challenge # 3

For the third challenge I decided to do Sandy's Back-to-School theme project, I thought it was an easy. One little problem, I don't have kids and don't buy school theme paper!  And it was too late to go off and do one of the other challenges!  Ah but wait, I am a confessed paper hoarder and I was lucky to find one, just one sheet of school paper!  LOL  I decided to make a book marker for Dulce.

CSD Blog Hop Challenge # 2

Alecia's challenge is to lift a layout from the Diva's Gallery. I choose Susan's Olivia layout.

All paper is Creative Memories including the sticker sentiments. The brown flowers are from my stash. Brads are Basic Grey.

CSD Blog Hop Callenge # 1

I'm participating on the blog hop challenges at Creative Scrapbooking Divas. One of  Luisa's challenge is to create a layout with a cluster of embellishments.
I used Creative Memories and Prima papers;  Flowers are from Joann's Scrap Essentials; brads are Making Memories.  I have my journaling done but didn't attach it yet.  I always type my journaling, I have a handful of layouts that include my writing....maybe I should challenge myself to hand write my journaling more often.

This is my niece Irene, taken at the seafront mansions in Newport, RI.

Witching you...

Well what do you know, I got another card done today too! LOL
All paper is from TPC including the plaid.  The inside sentiment says, "a happy halloween".
The witch legs are from Stephanie from ScrapNCreations. I added the skirt, don't know if anyone would want it, if I receive enough comments asking for it I will add the link.


The hat was a freebie from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs and you can still get it here.
