My Family: 5 for 5 challenge

Our Family together ... Bliss
Another challenge under my belt.
Sharlene supplied 5 items for 5 scrappers to come up with a project.
I decided on a layout this time around, previously I did an ATC or a card.

The photos are my children and grandchildren. Sorry the photo is not the best, there was a little problem getting a picture and the page got mangled. I should have redone the page but there you have it wrinkles and all. Just think of it as being distressed on purpose.

The five items were the pearls, the brown striped ribbon, the small chipboard butterfly which I covered in yellow paper , the red sticker (under the pearls) and the dot and striped paper which was one piece I cut and used both sides. I added the blue strip, the mat under the photo and the red piece which I used a scalloped border punch. The title is October Afternoon letters and the Chipboard title is crate paper.The doily is cut with a die cut machine and the background is misted in Yellow and Red Mr Hueys.The red dot paper is Pebbles.The large butterfly and twine was in my stash bin.
5 for 5 Items supplied

Layout based on a Shimelle Laine workshop page using the 5 for 5 items supplied.

Have a great day!

Scrapfest 2012


Here are my scrapping family ....

my daughter, sister and I at Scrapfest Kitchener 2012


Jo-Ann, Janet & I at Scrapfest 2012


I used the patterned background for Shimelle's challenge using busy paper and the 5 for 5 for Two Scrapbbok Friends challenge from Shelby.  Shelby supplied the striped paper, the bird paper, the happy pin, the brown paper flower and the green circle. Normally I would make a card with these items but decided at the last minute to make a page with our photo by Sue Sykes from Scrapfest.

Wonder

Here's my Big Picture Wonder layout.  Scrap lifted from and loosely based on Kimberly Corliss Baby Mine page from All about Scrapbooks & More, Woodstock that I spied at Scrapfest in Kitchener. I've been thinking about it since then and found the perfect picture this week when I was sorting my photos.
 I used the same base paper from Best Creations and added some of my stash paper and alphas, did not have any ribbon that worked so added some left over fabric flowers.
