It's Back To School at Use It Tuesday!

Hello there users! It's time for Challenge #14 at Use It Tuesday.

Our challenge this week is to make a project (layout, card, etc.) about our theme "Back To School". Once again, dig into your stash and join us!

My layout isn't really about going back to school but going to school for the first time. I've had this photo of my son from last year during his very first day at toddler school. It was taken just outside the entrance of the school. He was calm outside but the calm was left outside the moment he entered the school!


Supplies: Patterned Papers - Scenic Route, Cosmo Cricket, and Sassafras Lass.

Please do visit the Use It Tuesday blog for challenge details and to see the wonderful creations of our fabulous DT. This challenge is open to all scrapbookers and card makers.

Just a friendly reminder: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used.

As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!

So come join us and just USE IT!

Good luck everyone!

Use It Tuesday Challenge #13 - Indian Summer!

Hello there users! It's that time again to dig into your stash for another challenge at Use It Tuesday.

Our challenge this week is to make a project (layout, card, etc.) about Indian Summer. It can be about anything that comes to mind - the country India, the summer season, or the colors of summer.

My inspiration was about color. Indian Summer to me means greens, oranges, and pins. Here's what I came up with:


Supplies: Patterned Papers - Making Memories, We R Memory Keepers; Alpha - AC Thickers; Chipboard Elements - American Crafts, Junkitz; Paper Flowers - Sassafras Lass; Felt - Basig Grey; Others - Misc Ribbon and buttons

Sketch #260 Is Up At Scrapbook Challenges!

I can't believe it's already August! Where did the time go? I guess time does fly when you're having fun. July was a busy month for me, scrapwise. Oh, did I mention it was fun? I've been scrapping quite a bit to meet deadlines.

So this is my first DT work at Scrapbook Challenges (yay!) and I am very excited. I do hope you can join us there and I promise you lots of inspiration, beginning with this week's sketch.


And here's my layout:
