scrapbooking made fresh

More Christmas in July

Wow!  Where is the Summer going?  I can't believe today is the last day of July.  This week I wanted to celebrate a little Christmas vibe.  I broke out some Christmas photos and made a few layouts.   I have to admit, it was weird working with red, white and green instead of red, white and blue, but I did have some fun.

This week I'd like you to create a layout using red, white and green.  It doesn't necessarily need to have a Christmas theme, but I want to see those three colors featured on your layouts.  You can submit any size layout, but it has to have RED, WHITE and GREEN to qualify to win the $5.  Last week I only had one entry from Michele Linarez so she wins again this week.  Thanks for playing, Michele!  Hopefully more of you will get into the spirit and play for your chance to win.  Don't make me start handing out coal, people!

You may submit up to three entries to me to [email protected] by 6pm on Monday.  I'll call out a winner and come up with a new Challenge for you on Tuesday.

Have a great week and keep cool!

Stickled Pink

Congrats to this week's winner of the $5, Michele Linarez.  And thanks to those that played with my fun pink, green and blue challenge.  This week we're breaking out the Stickles.

My bestie has a birthday this week and I wanted to make her a fun card to celebrate.  I downloaded and printed this colorful little drink image and then used Stickles on the rim.  It really is just a coinkydink that my card is the same color combo from last week.  Really. I stamped a "Happy Birthday" on some pink paper and added glitter to my little star to finish of my card.

This week I'd like you to create a card or a layout using Stickles or glitter, the color pink and a stamp or downloaded image.  You may submit up to 3 entries towards the $5 prize, but your creation has to include Stickles/glitter, the color pink and a stamp/downloaded image.

You can submit your entries to me to [email protected] by Monday at 6pm.  I'll choose a winner from this week and hit you up with a new challenge next Tuesday.  

I'm heading to the fair today.  Can't wait to get some pictures of the kids from our adventures and hoping I can limit my intake of odd fried foods and "As Seen on TV" gadgets.  You all have a fantastical week!

KOW...happy birthday to you!

we have a very happy birthday to you! kit of the week today which is great for any age.  this KOW uses the fun glitter puff stickers from American Crafts.  so come on in and grab your kit for just $8.00

Color My World

Congrats to Tina Anderson for winning this week's $5!  And thanks to those that played.  This week I wanted to highlight some fun colors.  I'd like you to create a layout or a card using pink, blue and green.  You can choose any hue of those colors that you'd like.  I chose to go with a more bright version with the hot pink and aqua colors.

This little layout is of Squish and her favorite dentist, Dr. Justin.  We just love him.  He's so friendly and so much fun.  She actually likes going to the dentist because she knows Dr. Justin will be there.  That's a glowing endorsement if you ask me!

You can create up to 3 entries to submit to me to [email protected] by 6pm on Monday.  I'll pick a winner for the $5 and create a new challenge for you on Tuesday.  Just be sure that your layouts or cards have pink, green and blue.

Have a bright and sunny week!
