Scrapbook Challenges and one for fun

Good morning all.  I feel like I have been on a bloggie roll lately.  Here is the latest sketch from Scrapbook Challenges and I am also made it for the Paper Variety challenge (snowflakes) and Scrap Attack Scrapbooking (Fancy Pants).

So here it is- Sketch 236
And my page



This was our first (and only) snow this year.  Barely a few inches of light powdery stuff.  But the girls didn't  care, they played outside for about 45 minutes.  They even tried to make snow angels.  

Patterened papers and borders are all Fancy Pants.  Buttons are Recollections, and alphas are Making Memories.  

Now here is a page that I did just to do and used a Creative Scrappers sketch 137 for it .  Bella and I and some preschool friends and their mothers all went to a formal tea at the Westin and watched selections from the Nutcracker.  Before it all started each child got to take a photo with the Sugar Plum Fairy.  Bella was the second in line and was a bit nervous, as you can see from the photo.  I scanned the original and couldn't get the color right, so I just went for black and white.  



I used Webster Pages for this page.   I used my Martha Stewart craft knife to cut all the things out of the papers.  First time I had used it and WOW love it.  I glimmer misted the white cardstock to give it a hint of color.  The ribbon is also misted.   The pearls are Queen and Co and Kaiser Kraft.  

Ok that is all for now I think.  I am fighting another headache so I need to go make my coffee.  Have a great day.

    Beautiful LO's! I love both, but especially the WP one...you know how I love WP :) Just wondering - how do you get the cardstock to stay flat and not buckle after glimmer mising?
