Together Life is Good!

Happy Hump Day!!  I had a little extra time this afternoon that was unexpected so I ended up doing a quick layout and playing along with one of my favorite challenge sites Scrappy Friends!!!  I always drool over their challenges, the sketches are so easy to use and the other challenges are just plain fun!  Here is what I made:

 Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: Bella Blvd & We R Memory Keepers; clear sticker: SRM;

die cuts- word together, thankful quote & flower- Simple Stories; die cut leaf- Basic Grey, die cut

postage stamp- Fancy Pants; wood veneer- Studio Calico; enamel dots- Teresa Collins & MME

And here is the sketch I used which was Brenda's challenge:

And here is the color challenge my friend Kelly had for us:

  

I also did Rochelle's Tic Tac Toe challenge.  I used the third row straight down: the color gold, 3+ patterned papers and die cut (flower, leaf, live laugh love piece & word together).  Using this fun sketch my layout came together very quickly!  I had a great time with this challenge, there is still a bit of time left to play along, but if you don't have time at least check out their great examples.  Thanks Brenda, Rochelle & Kelly for such a fun challenge!!!

You + Dirt = 1 Happy Boy!

I was so happy to finally eek out some time this month to play along with the Scrappy Friends' challenges this month!  I'm so happy with how this layout turned out:

Supplies Used:  cardstock: Stampin Up; patterned paper: Lawn Fawn Hello

Sunshine, Bella Blvd Snapshots; alphas: Doodlebug; washi tape: Queen &

Co; stickers: hexagon- Jenni Bowlin & flag- MME; flair: Lawn Fawn; frame

These fun pictures of my nephew are from way back in 2009, I still have a lot of older photos to catch up on and these were ones I for sure wanted to get into his scrapbook so I could tell the story of how he always wore his shirts backward and his boots on the wrong feet, he just liked to do it that way! lol!  Luckily he doesn't do it anymore, but it was just so him and so adorable!  Love that boy!

I used the word "Happy" in my title for Kelly's word challenge.  For Rochelle's Tic Tac Toe challenge I used the right outer boxes: hexagon, flair, and Polaroid.

 Here is Brenda's wonderful sketch that the layout is based on:
