weekend warrior...

that's how i feel sometime - fighting for "my" time to play in my scrappy stuff... lol

here's what i've done so far:

sisters scrapfreak has a february class going on called "get sketchy" - this is based on sketch #10, by tamara...

i used CTMH "topstitch" patterned paper and some tim holtz rock candy crackle paint...

go this is an acrylic frame i altered, based on sketch #110 from sketch inspirations...

that's one of my all time favorite pics of my girl - from a few years ago...
thanks for looking - hopefully i'll have more before tomorrow is done!

scrapfreak is having a guest design team member contest - the trick to this one: you have to scraplift the person who posts right AFTER you do... jessicabree was the one who posted after me - and i got to lift some of her work! literally a TON of inspiration in her gallery!!!

(you can see her layout - fly - that inspired my layout in her gallery at scrapfreak)

this is me - one day before my eighth birthday...
i used CTMH papers (twitterpated) and CTMH stamps... background was hand stamped, and i was just OCD enough to draw a grid on the paper so the stamping didn't get too awful crooked!

those fluffy clouds were made with a few layers of tulle and embroidery floss.

fun contest! can't wait to see all the entries...

and this might be my favorite from the day... for JSYS - 01.19 - talk to me (use a thought bubble)
i hand lettered the title for this one - JSYS Challenge - 01.17 - Scallop Sweet (use a scallop edge somewhere on the page)
