iNSD! Scrapbook.com Challenge # 5

I almost didn't participate in this challenge because I wasn't sure if I had any party type things to put on a layout. The challenge is called Party on the Page. I found the party hat I saved from my sister's wedding and took the top off and put it on this page. There we go! A party supply on my page.

iNSD! 2 Peas Challenge #2

The Second 2peas challenge was a Member-based sketch where you had to get inspiration from a sketch. I followed much of the sketch, putting a border strip at the top, journaling along the side, a large box with two photos and a title and circle embellishment. I changed the size of the photos and kept my layout pretty simple. I also got to use these Roma stickers I purchased without thinking (because I couldn't figure out how to use them!) and this beautiful Roma stamp from Studio Calico.

I'm loving that these challenges are making me use a ton of my stash!

iNSD! Scrapbook.com Challenge #4

This challenge is called Ways to Washi . It included a video, which I'm sorry I didn't watch but I want to get all of the challenges done today! I will watch it later on this week. For my layout I used mostly My Minds Eye papers. I used two flowers from Crate Paper and some washi, of course! I made my own patterned paper out of blue washi, used pink polka dot washi on paper and made heart diecuts, then used black washi to ground my title and embellishments.

iNSD Scrapbook.com Challenge #3

I am trying to get as many of the scrapbook.com challenges done as I can before it ends tonight. Here is my layout for Insta-Scrap It All Day Challenge where you had to use 4 square photos (any size). These pictures weren't from my insta-stash but I just cropped them into squares. No big. Also, pretty obvious design- lots of squares.  

 

iNSD! Scrapbook.com Challenge #2

The second challenge for Scrapbook.com was a sketch it all day challenge. You had to look at a sketch and create a layout using it as inspiration. It was a basic grid. I don't normally scrap in grids but it was a nice change! The background is from Yes Please (play) and the cards are all from a set I got from Michael's but I'm afraid I do not know who makes them! The stickers are all Bo Bunny Mamarazzi. Love mixing new with old and things I find at the craft store that aren't big designers. Also, there are three seashell stickers behind the pictures. They are incredibly old. One of those first sticker packs I ever bought that had all the stickers you needed for an entire season. I'm terrible at throwing things away so to make up for it I find a way to use this stuff I have hoarded, even though I don't use stickers too much!

iNSD! Shimelle Challenge #2

I just realized that Shimelle's challenges aren't due til next week, while Two Peas and Steal Network's are due tomorrow night and Scrapbook.com are due tonight. I guess I'm going to have to reprioritize the day!

Here is my layout for Shimelle's second challenge, Use 4x6 Photos. Which is almost every layout for me! Here is the simple one I did today with Dear Lizzy Neopolitan products (from a 12 x 12 pad from target!) and some green gems I added.

I really need to find my camera or something. My phone camera is terrible! These are pictures of me and my older sister (I'm on the left!) at my baby brother's wedding. I just thought the shoes were perfect for it since we were all dressed up! Of course, you can't see our shoes, but whatever! 

iNSD! Steal Network Challenge #2

The challenge for this layout is called Your favorite song... now. My layout is inspired by the song "The Tip of the Iceberg" by Owl City. I just recently got Owl City's CDs and while this song is older and not a single I love it. Also, I realize it is no longer winter, but wanted to scrap this pretty picture from my living room window. Besides, what better way to use up all those christmasy papers I got a few months back? The paper here is from a 12 x12 Crate Paper Peppermint pad I bought at AC Moore and the smaller papers are from a My Minds Eye 6x6 pad, which I've been desperately trying to use in most of my layouts lately because I somehow accumulated so many. Then there are stickers from Echo Park's Dear Santa collection and a really old Cosmo Cricket snow flake tag.
