Oldies but Goodies Crop

The past weekend Scraptures hosted a weekend long online crop. The theme was Oldies but Goodies, based on movies titles. I created 4 challenges for the crop. Here they are.....

For this challenge, I wanted to see sports themed layouts.

This challenge, you were to do a music based layout...could be about yourself, your child, your favourite band, etc.

This layout I based on the song Somewhere Over The Rainbow and the challenge was to use the colours of the rainbow in your layout

For this one, I did something a little different. I created a perpetual birthday calendar that I can use to record birthdays and store cards I make.


Head on over to Scraptures, you have until Saturday, January 28, 2012 at 5pm to do the challenges and maybe win some prizes!

Baby Cards

This past weekend, we got to go to visit friends of ours who had twins back in October. They had a boy and a girl. You may remember that I made keepsake cans for a shower gift for them back in August. They had a boy and a girl...Freddie and Rosalyn. They are soooooo cute! As baby gifts, my Mom lovingly sewed quits, knitted sweaters and car seat blankets for each of the babies for me (thanks Mom...you're the best!). Here are the cards that I included with the gifts.



I am "Vary" happy with how the cars turned out and Zoe loved them too!

When I made the can, I said that I would add the baby's names later. Here is a picture of the cans with the names added this morning.


I love the final product!

Come one....COME ALL!!!!!!!

I am "Vary" excited to announce that the weekend of January 20-22 Scrap~tures is have their very first crop of the 2012 year!!!!! How exciting is that I ask?

The theme for the weekend is "Oldies but Goodies" and is based on old movie titles. The crop starts a 4pm on Friday night and runs until 4pm on Sunday with challenges and games scattered throughout the weekend. The best part is that you can crop at home, in your jammies and you done have to pack all your stuff up and lug it with you!
