My Croppy Summer Assignment #31

Here we are at the last challenge. I kept up, and did them all! The last challenge is: create today's layout with a vintage, homemade "flavor." Vintage doesn't come easy for me. When I think vintage, I tend to think Christmas without the cute. So, here's my attempt. Thanks Lori for the summer fun!!!

My Croppy Summer Assignment #30

Create a layout today using the color gold, and at least three round items, one of them large.

My Croppy Summer Assignment #29

Today's challenge is based on inspiration from this weekend's getaway: Start with recent photos, add some black & white and some splashes of colors in the embellishments.



Guess glitter and velvet scan differently, those pinks are the same color IRL.
EWW! Looks like my scanner needs cleaned!

My Croppy Summer Assignment #28

So, since this week slipped away, there are three challenges for today will be multiple ;) First, we need a sketch, so you'll find a PageMaps sketch below:



I love sketches, this one took some serious photo editing! I pulled out some BG outbeat for this one. That heart bling on the crown, really is pink!!



Next - a little 5 on Friday action:

2 sheets cardstock
1 sheet patterned paper
1 length ribbon
1 set flowers or buttons
Remember, other than the listed ingredients, only journaling and a title are allowed; NO other items can be used.

When I read this one: I thought of how Jen used the buttons on "FUN". Man oh Man! Those letters are BIG! I used last month's kit for this one. I think that paper is perfect for Maddie's rainbow color suit.



And one more thing - with summer winding down, create your layout using summer photos - current photos would be great, but any summer photos will do.

And last, but not least, some fun pics with last month's kit.

My Croppy Summer Assisgnment #27

Hmmm . . .so an end of the week assignment. I think it's time to use that end-of-the-line paper that you've been holding on to. You know the stuff. You bought it to use for those photos. Now those photos are already scrapbooked, with other paper, and you're still holding the paper. But you love that paper, and it's off the shelves now, you can't get more, so you're saving it. Nope. Today that ends. You're using it with other photos - perfect or imperfect. While you're at it use the end-of-the-roll ribbon and those last few buttons and those chipboard pieces you have sitting there. You can have other items, but try to use what you know you can't get any more.

I pulled out some of my hoarded Scenic Route. Pulled from the bottom of my orange jar of buttons, the end of that shade of blue embroidery floss, and that nice big rick rack that I got at my closed LSS.

My Croppy Summer Assignment #26

create a layout using primary colors, naked chipboard and ribbon.

Right away, I thought of our BG Lime Rickey kit. On the right page you can see my chipboard arrow, and ribbon strips on the bottom.

My Croppy Summer Assignment #25

In honor of this quiet create a layout that incorporates muted colors and soft embellishments. Soft peaceful colors like moss green, pale yellow, soft pink, sky blue, lavender and no hard embellishments, so no metal or plastic embellishments.


So, Lori, hope you accept this as muted. I always think of Crate Paper as muted. My only embellies are felt. Nice and soft. Such a fun memory! We laughed and laughed about these sand cranes knocking on the windows when we were in Florida last year!

My Croppy Summer Assignment #24

Today, I'm inspired by the day: create a layout incorporating sky-blue, white (if you've got some of that fun paper with clouds on it, that'd work too) and spring green, in whatever elements you choose.

So, here's my layout. Quick and simple today.

My Croppy Summer Assignment #23

Today's assignment comes from Elizabeth Kartchner's "52 More Scrapbooking Challenges" book: Lift a design from a home decor item.

I took my inspiration from this bedspread.



And now, my layout. I used Reminisce papers, chipboard stars, and border punches.

My Croppy Summer Assignment #22

So to honor the final rose today's assignment is scrapbook a love story and use red. Whether you scrapbook you and your significant other or the deep love you feel for dark chocolate or a seaside retreat, have fun with it.

I chose my parents engagement picture. Back into my DaisyD supply for paper.
