A New Layout!

This is a photo I took of Elizabeth two weeks ago on our first bikeride of the Spring. I used a quote that Sue posted at MSW to scrap it, and a sketch by Betty!

Here's to more bikerides and adventures!!!

Here is a Layout I did for Kim's "Hip 2B Square" challenge.  It required that I use a square photo and some squares as embellishments on my page.  Come on over and try it!!

Sketch Challenge at DOODLE!

For the Month of February a few us are hosting some sketch challenges at Scrapbook Doodle.  This is my week and I posted an awesome sketch made by the lovely Lucy Chesna.  She created it just for us!!  And, there are three challenges to inspire ways to use the sketch.  

Challenge #1- Color Challenge  Use the sketch and include the colors red, yellow and green on your layout. 

Challenge #2- Use the sketch, but change one major design element (change the number of photos, take the sketch and turn it, etc.)  I used one photo instead of three.

Challenge #3- Use a ONE WORD TITLE.   I used "Beauty."
So, skip over to the Doodle and play with us.  Every time you complete a challenge you go into the drawing for a prize at the end of the month.  Don't wait, you have until Midnight on Sunday, February 21st.

Thanks to Janice, Libby, Yvonne and Lucy for your support and help with this challenge!!

I've Been Tagged...

I was tagged by Lucy for a picture tag and here's how this works...
Go to your Picture Folder on your computer or wherever you store your pictures.

1. Pick the 6th Folder, then select the the 6th picture in that folder.

2. Post that picture on your blog and the story that goes along with the picture.

So, here it is! Colby and Elizabeth were playing a game called Hullaballoo. It's a super fun game that is kind of like twister. The photo was taken the day after Christmas in 2007. It seems like just yesterday!!

Thanks for the memory, Lucy!!

A SUPER fun Crop!!!

There was a wonderful crop at MonAme Memories this weekend.  This was the first of their new crops that will happen every month.  I had a great time and accomplished quite a bit.  I was really happy to scrap several photos that I have wanted to do for quite a while, but just didn't have the inspiration.  So, here's what I got done....

BEST TOY EVER

SNOW VERY FUN!
IT'S A SWING THING
