A Mini Album

I made this mini album for a taGteam challenge at Concroption. We were sent 6 paint cards and had to use them on a layout or project. When I first saw them, I knew I wanted to use these pictures of the kids on the slip and slide. The paint cards are the solid color pages (I traced them on pp to make the other pages) and they already had the little windows and the wavy cut on the bottom.
Supplies from Concroption: Daisy D's patterned paper, More Daisy D's PP, Tim Holtz Grungeboard Letters
Other Supplies: buttons, black pen, eyelets, paint, binder rings

Been awhile...again! And soon...a RAK!

I don't know where the time goes! I have had a bunch of scrap stuff going on and forget to blog! I did last week's Crowned layout for Scrapdango. It was the "bikini competition" and although they teased that we'd need a picture of ourselves in a bikini (I so would have been done!), it was really to make a skimpy layout. They gave a list of embellishments and we got to choose only 2 and could also only use 2 pp. I chose stitching and buttons as my embellishments. This was hard for a lot of people but I think I am a pretty minimalistic scrapper by nature so it was really a good one for me! Here it is: This week is the "interview competition" and our layout has to be about us. Still not sure where I am going with that one! And I need to get it figured out soon as we are going to the beach this weekend!

Angie posted some sneak peeks of the March kit over at A Walk Down Memory Lane! You're going to like this one! It has some subtler colors in it with some fabulous embellishments too! I am still playing with it but the stuff I've done was super fun!

Also working on some altered things for Concroption! Know what I am doing on one of the things but the other has me stumped! I need to get thinking!

Now to that RAK (random act of kindness for those of you new to this!) This is my 97th post and I've been blogging almost a year! So I though it'd be fun to give some stuff away! I know I have a very neat Tim Holtz mask and some other embellishments too just sitting here waiting for a good home! Just leave a comment on any post from now until I hit 100! (that's 3 posts!) and in my 101 post I'll announce the winner! Hopefully I'll do a better job at posting so you won't have to wait too long! :)

Pages read

Well, our family has been hit by a bug! And it is not fun! But before we were hit I made this little book for concroption. It is for me to record how many pages I read this year and any books or authors that I want to read. All the supplies came from concroption except the paint which I already had. I used a mix of MM red wagon and black. The paper is Jenni Bowlin and Rusty Pickle. The letters are a great mask by Tim Holtz. For the red side, I painted over the mask and for the black side, I traced them and then colored it in. The off white words (read and this) are rub-ons by Jenni Bowlin. The fun little polka dot ribbon is by Rusty Pickle.
