Hello!

First up, my bit of news... I made the DT over at ScrapGal! Come on over and check it out! There's an online store, a forum with fun challenges every month and a gallery full of inspiration! I'll be starting my term at the beginning of March. Can't wait to get started!



I also have a few more layouts to share. The first two are from our trip to the UK in 2009. We drove on these VERY narrow roads... oh, and did I mention they were TWO-WAY roads?!! They made me reeeeeally nervous! When you met another car, one of the cars had to back up until the closest (slight) widening of the road! It's the only part of our trip that I didn't enjoy!

The first page is based on this sketch by Lucy Chesna from My Sketch World (there's a Sketch-a-thon going on in February... you should check it out!)



And my version:



The second page was based on this sketch by Let's Get Sketchy.





Finally, I made another layout from one of the sketches at My Sketch World. This page is about my niece and is for my parents' album.





I hope you'll visit all of these sites and get as much inspiration from them as I have!

Happy scrapping!

Hi!

I have a few layouts to share that I've done for different challenge blogs. First up, this page about our trip to the UK in 2009. On our last day, we visited Blenheim Palace. I made a layout based on this sketch from My Sketch World.





I also did two pages on "The Beauty of Christmas in Nuremberg" from our trip this past december. The first page is based on a sketch by Liz Chidester from Practical Scrappers.





The second page was based on this sketch from Scrap Gal. I rotated the sketch to fit my landscape picture.





This other page, "The Good Life!", about our trip to Cuba last winter, was made for another challenge at Scrapgal. We had to use colors that we normally would not. I went for turquoise and lime green, as I don't usually use bright colors like that (although the picture doesn't seem that bright because of the bad winter light for taking photos!)



Finally, this last page was done for a monochromatic challenge at Let's Capture Our Memories. It's based on a sketch from Sassy Lil' Sketches. That was me, 43 years ago...



Ok, I think I'm all caught up now! Hope you have a great weekend!

Happy scrapping!
