Indulge!

The Christmas rush is here...need to finish up my Christmas list, then wrap gifts, maybe bake some cookies too but I need to squeeze in some scrap time too! I would like to share with you my layout for Sketch 37 at Inspired Blueprints. It is a mulit-photo sketch, perfect for scrapping events like birthdays!



Title: Indulge
These are photos taken during my birthday last October. Timi's, Ytet's and my birthday fall on the same week so its been three years now that we have been celebrating birthdays together!
Materials Used: I used papers from the July ScrapMuse kit (Making Memories, Hambly, & American Crafts), Prima flowers & pearls, All About Scrapbooking alphas.


Here's the sketch:





I hope you get to squeeze in some scrap time too!

Color Combo Challenge with a Twist!

The holiday season is in full swing. Christmas decorations are up and we see red and green everywhere. I am hosting the December contest at ScrapMuse and this is what it's all about...I want you to use the colors red & green as inspiration in creating a layout. You can use a little of other colors but the layout should be predominantly red & green. Another thing I want to see is glitter and at least 3 patterned papers! Your layout can be Christmas related or not, its really up to you!


Here is my sample:




The papers I used ( American Crafts Kids & Everyday, Scenic Route Sonoma, & Basic Grey Boxer) are not actually holiday papers, and so is my photo.

Other details of the contest can be found here. I hope you can squeeze in an entry despite the busy season!

Happy Weekend & Happy Scrapping!
