Scrap Tiffany Black & White Photo Challenge-Part 2

This week's Scrap Tiffany Challenge was using Black/White photos.
This was quite easy for me because I love using black n white's.
They seem to work with any kind of paper you decide upon.

Not to mention, when you walk into my closet those two colors are the primary colors you see. When I buy a shirt, I tend to look for the black and then say, "I wonder if they have that in white?".
Well, maybe I need to get out of my closet box and buy other colors.
I suppose that is another blog post for another day.

For today, here is my layout for this week's challenge.

Supplies used: Patterned paper-BoBunny "Alissa"; Sticker's-BoBunny "Alissa";Letter stickers-BoBunny"Alissa";
Flowers-Prima;"I love you" Embossing folder-Cuttlebug; Date rub-on-Imaginisce; Father vellum quote-My Minds Eye;
Misc.-pink ribbon, tulle netting, stamps, Stickles, white pen, rhinestone brads, sewing machine, square scallop punch.

I chose to use this picture of my husband and newest kid on the block, my Adoration. She is about 3 weeks old in this picture. Seems like yesterday, now she is just over 4 months. Where does the time go?
When our photographer was taking these shots, I was upstairs and didn't really see them until she sent them to us. I was floored and loved these of the two of them the most.

I thought this BoBunny paper was the perfect combo for the picture.
It has the pink for her, and the black for him.
I wouldn't normally put a man on pink paper
but in this case "she" rules and I think it works.

Make sure to stop at Tiffany's and look at all the other
Black & White layouts for this weeks challenge.

Scrap Tiffany Brads/Eyelet Challenge

This week's Tiffany Challenge was Brads/Eyelets.
Wow..even though I still have a ton of these little guys, somehow I only really seem to use them to attach something.
That is great, however, those tiny little metal pieces are so much more.
It was fun to create with them in mind as top priority again.
So here's what I created....

Supplies used: Teresa Collins-patterned paper & stones;7 Gypsies-Black gaffer tape;
Making Memories-Black brads;Bazzil-Black Cardstock

Make sure visit Scrap Tiffany to see the first set of the
Design Team take on this challenge for this week.
There is some great art over there.

Scrap Tiffany "Monochromatic" Challenge

This week's Tiffany challenge was your take on "Monochromatic"
At first I really stopped to think about this one but
it didn't take long for me to pull it together.
I am happy with the results.
I dug through my stash searching for the color I saw most,
then went from there.
The subject was an easy one...My girls.
Samantha 15, Brooklin 6, and Adoration almost 4 months.
These gals are so much alike in so many ways but so different in many other ways. However, I love them all the same.
I am blessed to have such great girls.

This is the result...

Scrap Tiffany Self Portrait

This was a fun layout for me, because it's been awhile since I have created.
With all the changes going on in our lives,
creating had to move a little lower on my list of "to do's".
However, that can last only so long.
I have been missing my creative therapy.

This week's challenge for Scrap Tiffany is "Self-Portrait".
This made me think about who I really am.
The "me" words are some descriptive words that some friends recently said to describe me on my special birthday surprise(that's another post for later).
Of course, I had to add a few as well.
Their words for me were positive, mine were the not so positive.
Cause like 'em or not we all have those not so fun,
not so positive descriptive words that make us who we are.

Here's my layout for this week...

A close-up of the flower.
This flower was hand drawn and cut out, not so perfectly,
on purpose in different sizes and layered with a regular flower.
An over-sized brad in the center holds it all together.

Supplies used:
Patterned paper-We R Memory Keepers/White Out Collection/Nonsense-Bling, Blang.
Cardstock- Bazzil/Craft
Large Brad-American Crafts Elements/Cricket
Misc-trim, acrylic letters, sewing machine, distressing tool.

remaining design team's "Self Portrait".
