Lift It!

There's a scraplift challenge going on over at Basic Grey blog...
This is the pretty layout to lift:

And here's my take:

Title: At Smithpoint Beach

Journaling: Day 2 in Coron and its Island Hopping Day!

Used the colorful Indie Bloom for this one.

NSD with Basic Grey

I had fun spending National Scrapbooking Day and the rest of the week with the Basic Grey challenges.... it helps that I have an untouched Indie Bloom collection pack in my stash. Well, here are my layouts....


For the shape challenge (use shapes other than squares and rectangles), I used hexagons which is so "in" at the moment. Used Sweet Threads for this one.

For the mixed font challenge...used a mix of the sticker alphas and Wilma chipboard alphas.Obviously, our family loves the Pocketbooth app in our Ipad.

For the mulitple layers challenge....I had fun with this pic. Its a pic of my girls with their cousin Korey. The picture was quite dark but with the mulitple editing options we have nowadays, it looks better now.

For the Jana Eubank challenge...layout has to be split in the middle, either horizontally or vertically. Here's my version...

Thanks for dropping by! There are so many more challenges that I want to do!!!

Umami

I managed to finish a quick layout the other day.....YIPEE! Here's my layout based on the sketch over at the Basic Grey blog.

Title/Journaling: Umami is japanese for good taste.

Ally loved her bowl of noodles at the Narita airport during our stop over en route to LA. (May 2011)

Materials Used: Basic Grey Sweet Threads and Luscious

Here's the sketch, which is a double pager but I just used one side...
