Crafty Pastime

 This is another layout made this past weekend. Super quick to put together thanks to the awesome sketch from the Scrap Our Stash Challenge ! I was looking forward to scrapping some more this weekend but it looks like I may not have time.  =(     Here in this photo my husband who is super excited to be with his nephew!  For the challenge I added some stamping on the page, not very good at stamping or mixed media so I keep it at a minimal.  Will be more adventurous hopefully this summer! I am also entering this layout to the Lasting Memories Challenge and the challenge is "Something Blue".  I have used different hues of blue in my layout.  Thanks for stopping by, please drop me a comment!

I am so happy I was able to get a few layouts in this weekend.  It's been awhile since I have created multiple layouts in a weekend.  The layout today is for a photo we took at Dave and Buster's in North Carolina, who would have known that it would be the last time we would ever be able to go to that Dave and Buster location.  The building has since been knocked down and Dave and Busters has relocated.  I am playing along with the challenge from Rochelle Spears and I was happy with how my layout turned out until I tried to add some color to get some water color look. I decided to also to play along with Stacy's BINGO challenge.  I used a wood tag, two word title and stars on my layout.  I decided to add stamped stars to my layout but I needed some color. I had limited supplies and did not have my water color supplies because I am in the process of moving so everything was boxed away.  I had to improvise and the only thing I had were Crayola markers, an...

Hi, Thanks for stopping by to check out my site.  Today's layout is created for the Challenge YOUrself Challenge #101. The challenge is to create a page of something you love.  Here is a photo of me camping out on a beautiful night with the Boy Scouts.  I am in my own tent and very cozy in my sleeping bag.  The weather was just perfect for camping!   For this layout I used paper from a paper pad from Hobby Lobby. It had the perfect outdoor theme I was looking for.  I did some tearing and added layers along with embellishments.   As you can see, I don't have a particular style to my scrapbooking. I just love to try everything!  Just have fun with it.  Join us for some over at Challenge YOUrself! 

Hi Everyone, so happy to be sharing another layout today.  This layout is created for Challenge YOUrself 100th Challenge!  The challenge was to create a layout with stars.  Here is my layout, did some tearing and stitching on this layout.  Thank you for stopping by.

Hi Everyone, Thank you stopping by to check out my layout.  Today's layout is designed for the Challenge YOUrself Challenge #99.  The challenge this month is to create a layout with your pet. In 2021, many people were getting pets due to the pandemic.  My son had wanted a dog but I know how much is involved with having a dog!  I offered to get him a smaller pet and we ended up adopting a hamster from another family who was not able to take care of him anymore.   Meet Harry, he is a new member to our family, and he is very friendly.  My husband who is not much of an animal lover has definitely grown to love him.  He does not require too much maintenance which worked out for me.  For this layout I picked a paper that already had the background and I just needed to add some embellishments here and there. A very simple layout to put together.  Thanks for stopping by!  Please join us over at Challenge YOUrself for some fun!   ...
