Week 3 Scrap Tiffany Challenge

This week's challenge is up at Scrap Tiffany..
Week 3 was to create something 80's.
Wow!! Did that take some thinking.
I couldn't find any of my pictures, and if I did, I am not so sure I really would have really created something I liked with them so I opted to
use a picture of my daughter last year from a Halloween 80's theme.
Here is what I created...



Although, this is her dressed up, I know somewhere there are pictures of me dressed exactly like this. Except for the fact I was not dressed up in Halloween garb but just in my everyday garb. Unbelievable how times change.
I remember when my daughter was putting all that on, she said,
"Mom, did you guys really wear all this stuff?"
Of course, I had to answer, "Yes".

No matter what, she still looks cuter in it than I did.
However, so glad she has her own look and doesn't have to wear that.
I know one day when her kids look at her old pics they will too say,
"Gee Mom, did you really wear holey jeans, so much that your knees showed?"
Then I can sit back and remember this day.

Thanks for stopping by...don't forget to head over to Tiffany's to check out the other design team layouts on this fun 80's challenge. There are some great takes on this one.
Don't forget you can participate too.
Create something 80's and email it to Tiffany. It will be fun to see what you create as well. This challenge I'm sure has many turns to it.

I'm sooo excited!!
I won Teresa Collins new Chic Bebe Girl line.

She was giving away a make-n-take book on her website that you are able to make at CHA if you went. I was headed that way but the timing was just off for me right now.
But she had a giveaway on her blog and was offering to give away 2 kits if you left a comment.
So of course, I did, and out of 241 comments, I won!!

Check it out here.

Adorable little book!! I have just enough time to get in and complete it before the baby comes. Just in time for me to get some pics added to it.

Thanks so much Teresa! Your work is awesome!!
You know I am one of your biggest fans!!

Week 2 Scrap Tiffany Challenge

This week's Scrap Tiffany Challenge was to create a layout using 5 photos. I love using a lot of pictures on my pages because I think that's what it's all about. So this layout went pretty fast for me.
Here's what I came up with...




I love these photos..they were two days before we left Nashville for the holidays and my kids got to play in the snow with their cousin Alex. Although we didn't stay out there long because it was so cold...my sister took 150 snapshots during their playtime. I know 150!!!
However, I'm not complaining and so glad she did because I ended up with all these and more pictures of my kids in the snow with their cousin Alex.

Brooklin said she was going to pray a lot for the snow to come and boy did her prayers get answered. Down to the second the plane lifted off the ground it was still snowing. She must have had a special 800 # to God. ha!

So go on over to Scrap Tiffany and check out the other designs of the 5 photo layouts of the remaining Design Team. Everyone did an amazing job.
Then make your take on the challenge and let's see what you come up with. It's not hard but if you are not used to putting 5 or more photos on your pages, you will appreciate the challenge and making yourself get out of your box.

ScrapTiffany "Can't Live Without"

Today is the first day of the new challenge for ScrapTiffany for 2010.
I'm so excited to be a part of her design team.
I have always loved her ideas for challenges, they help to get you out of your normal scrap box. Especially in the subject areas. Sometimes we can get in a rut of "what" we scrap.
I am looking forward to working with Tiffany and the new design team.
Here's a look at my first layout with Tiffany.
The challenge was to scrap about something you can't live without.
Well, even though my mind went racing about my Starbucks, scrap supplies, my computer, my camera, etc.
Although I enjoy all those things in my life, there is nothing more important to me than my family (after God, of course).
So that is what I chose to scrap about.
I'm so glad I did.
See I told you, Tiffany's challenges make you think.
So here it is...




Go to ScrapTiffany's blog to check out all the other designer's take on this week's challenge. Everyone did an amazing job.

In addition, Tiffany has created a message board that you all can be a part of with all the design team. It's a great place for us all to connect and chat. You can sign up here. It doesn't cost anything to join and it's a great place to connect and be inspired.

Well, there you have it...my latest endeavor.
Thanks again Tiffany for allowing me to be a part of your team. I look forward to working with such a great team.
