Rejoice

Ok a real quick post to get this linked up before the deadline at the Paper Variety- it is actually a photo challenge of a cute pup in a santa hat, but I am attempting to use the colors, warm kraft, red and white color combo (I added green obviously as that is my paper).

  I used a sketch from Twisted Sketches- twist pop dots.    Layout is also for ACOT- faithbook- and Scrapbook Challenges- color challenge. 

Will add to this post this afternoon.

Twisted Sketches, the Scrappiest and A Cherry on Top

So I went a crop this weekend.  I only did 6 layouts, but I did do 18 cards.  It was mainly the same card 18 times, LOL.  So I will share one or two of those at a later date.

Now here is what I managed to do layout wise- well a few of them anyway.

First Twisted Sketches.  The twist was circles.  I am also using this for ACOT manufacturer challenge- sassafrass lass.  I was attempting to also use this at Scrapbook Challenges (4 photos, stitching, red and ribbon.)  For some reason I didn't bring any of my ribbon with me and once I finished I didn't want to go back and mess with the page.  I really like this one, (which probably means no one else will.)

These pictures were from Bella's first day at tee-ball. She is the only girl in the class and she was the only one to hit a home run that day.  So proud.

Next for the Scrappiest #89, which I am also using at ACOT for the countdown challenge (5 buttons, 4 halloween themed elements, 3 pieces of paper, 2 pumpkins, and black background.)

These are our halloween decorations.  This was the first year we ever decorated for halloween. 
Everything here (minus the buttons) is from a kit at its scraptacular.

The next one is for the sketch challenge at ACOT.

Another page where almost all the elements come from a kit at its scraptacular. 

And my last one today is for the "scraplift the guest design team member."

Papers and flowers are from a kit at the Scrap Room.

Well that is all for now. 

Our Squirrels - Twisted Sketches

We have a bench sitting outside that we place bird seed and squirrel seed on. We love watching all the critters coming up and eating. This picture was taken this past Friday, when the snow started to fall. I believe the squirrels were trying to stuff as much as they could in the cheeks. At one point on Thursday we had 6 squirrels out there, but I didn't get a good picture of it.

Anyway, I used the sketch #35 from Twisted Sketches for it, aptly enough the "twist" was to use animals.
PP are Websters pages. Journal spots are Jilli Bean Soup. Alphas are Paper Studio.

Sisterly Love

Here is a layout based on sketch 32 at Twisted Sketches. The twist is to use stamps. I stamped on the flowers. It will also be used for a Scrap and Stamp challenge, use stamps and do a girly page. And My Scrapbooking Supplies is having a LOVE contest. So basically you do a LO about Love.
