The Last Challenge

Scrapbook Challenges - August Challenge
"carefree me"

A definite sign of my slipping scrapping mojo (I can barely keep my blog updated!). This layout is waaay late but it's one of my more unique takes on SC's monthly challenges. =) It was also POTW (Pick of the Week)! Woohoo! =D

I sure am missing the group and hopefully I can still post a page or two (or more!) if time permits. I'm also keen on joining the weekly challenges at 52 Sketches but alas, no time to scrap. =( (a bit busy with work and too engrossed with "The Lost Symbol", LOL).

Oh mojo, where are you? =o

Stephanie's Blog Candy

Happy Weekend! =)

I took a leave from work yesterday, feeling a little tummy flu (but mostly just escaping the office, LOL). I was *positive* I'd get a few layouts done but nooo, my mojo was nowhere to be found. I'm seeing a pattern here... I don't scrap a month or so, and then when I do start the pages just come out 1-2-3. Then I get to the 5th or 6th page then after that I totally can't make the next one. So frustrating!

So now, I'm blog-hopping to get more ideas and I stumbled on this yummy blog candy from Stephanie:

It ends on Tues. (Sept. 1).

Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch 157

Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch # 157
"oriental"

My take on the latest sketch from Pamela. It started out quite different (different PPs though the pink color is kind of the same). It's a bit of a stretch from the original sketch, but I just couldn't help making a layout for this photo of Kayla.

I'm gonna enter this on the {Create} challenge as well due to the paper-pieced li'l Japanese girl (At last, I did a layout with one!).

I See You!

July 2009 PageMaps
"i see you!"

Something different! Yep, tried my hand at one of the sketches in PageMaps and this was what I came up with. Mr. Sun wasn't shining as brightly so I didn't get a really nice photo of the layout (the colors are a bit lighter in real life). Still, I'm very satisfied with the outcome. =)

Still loving that MLS!

"my lil cook"


I did it, I did it! But I was too late sending to Pamela. =( Darn it. I was a bit too OC about adding more embellies - I just had to add the 3 li'l birdies at the bottom. MLS just makes it so easy to do cute. That and Sassafras Lass... =)

Cupcakes and Donuts

52 Sketches 52 Weeks - Sketch # 31
"hey cupcake"

Why donuts? I'm eating a donut right now while trying to post (DD is being very clingy and whiny today, but maybe because she's just excited about going out to a birthday party).
