Scrap It With a Song layouts

Hi all. I totally dropped the ball last week with posting my DT layout for week #8 over at Scrap It With a Song. My back seems to be getting worse and worse as the physical therapy goes on .... not better! :( Fingers crossed though that we see a miracle turnaround because this was the last step before surgery on the herniated disc. :(

Last week our song was Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper. Here was my take on the song...






This week the song is I could Not Ask For More by Sara Evans. Such a sweet song! Our sponsor is the adorable Sew Many Stamps. For your chance to win 5 digi stamps from their collection, click on over to Scrap It With a Song. Here is my take on the song.

A day of scrapping

The challenge this week at Fab 'n' Funky challenges is a sketch. It was intended to be a card sketch, but I made a layout out of it. The kit is by Baby Einstein....how cute is it?? The journaling says, "One day Allie looked up and found her mobile, then her whole world changed."


--------------------------------

My Partner in Crafting Crime's challenge this week was create a birthday 'something.' I don't have any birthdays coming up that need cards so a layout it was!! My nephew just celebrated his 16th birthday so voila! I followed sketch #65 at The Scrappiest.



----------------------------------------

I've been catching up on April and May's photos for my digi album. Yes, I scrap everything twice...sometimes more than that! :) This first layout was my daughter's 6th birthday party. I followed the sketch at Sassy Lil' Sketches.

Feeling challenged!

I have been catching up on some challenges I had flagged that I wanted to give a go. My first layout is my new favorite picture of the baby. It also led to the last layout of the baby food fail! At Katie's birthday, her grandma's got together and fed her chocolate frosting!!! Her smile is a far cry from the disgusting scowl I got last night! For this layout, I used Creative Scrappers sketch #105. I also used the color combo at The Play Date Cafe. The colors were pink, light green and pale yellow. You can also use neutrals so I felt okay using this set that has brown/creams as the base, since the main colors are what pop! :) :) :)


Next up is the layout I created with pictures from my daughter's first music program in Kindergarten. It made her day that her grandma and Allie could come since Daddy had to work. I followed Liz Qualman's sketch found HERE. I also drew inspiration from the Creative Prompts challenge #16. I added a frame around the journaling on the bottom left and tried to model the colors in the pic. I also followed the color challenge at Cupcake Craft Challenge #92. I had to choose one color to add to black and grey. My color was yellow. :) I also thought the 'admit one' ticket fit well since it was a music program. That was the challene over at All Sorts week #53.
