COOL DUDES! (Crafty Challenge)

At Two Scrapbook Friends, Christa threw in a crafty challenge for us to go through any past Friendzy Friday and to pick one to do.  I looked through and picked this Friendzy Friday: Crash Your Stash of Ribbon Tutorial (dated on Friday, November 11, 2011.)

Here is one of her three samples.

This is my work following Christa's FF tutorial!  It was fun making this "ribbon wreath"  A good way to use up some ribbons that I have not touched or used for a long time.  I also used some washi tape on my ribbon wreath for fun!

A close up of my ribbon wreath.  It reminds me of the sun!  And the sun worked well on this layout!

THE DUCKS (Crafty Challenge: BINGO Scrap game)

At the Two Scrapbook Friends, Sharlene (DT) threw in a crafty challenge.  It was a BINGO Scrap challenge!  She  created this bingo card.  For this challenge I needed to create layout, card or project using the five items in the  “Scrap Bingo” ie.  Across, up and down or diagonally.  I can use more than these five items but you must use at least those five items on your layout, card or project.  I have decided to go for ALL items on this bingo card!  What a challenge~ it was fun!  My layout really looks FULL!

I had fun doing this challenge, now it is your turn and your challenge is to find everything that are on Sharlene's bingo card on this layout, LOL

Cannot wait for the next BINGO challenge!  Thanks for visiting! 

Top 3 (Olympic Challenge #8)

Two Scrapbook Friends had online Olympic Challenges.

Christa, DT, threw in challenge #8 to do something for TOP 3.  I have decided to do a double page layout on my CUBA vacation focusing on my favorite picture perfect!

One early evening, my friends and I were walking around the resort and of course I was taking several pictures.   Some of the pictures came out PERFECTLY!

Here is my 8 x 8 double page layout.

Thank you Christa for this challenging challenge!

SUPER HEROES (Olympic Challenge #4 and #11)

At the Two Scrapbook Friends, for their online Olympic Game, Sharlene, (DT) threw in a challenge #11  that requires to create using five different techniques.  Sharlene also threw in another Olympic challenge #4.  It was to follow the colours of the Olympic symbol.

I found some pictures of my children that I have been avoiding, not sure of how to do the layout(s) with them! And when I saw them, I immediately came up with an idea and decided to do the pictures!  YAH!  I still need to find exact date of when the pictures were taken!  I will add the date when I have the luck of finding the right date.

5 Different Techniques

For my left page layout, I decided to do

1.  embossing (title)
2.  washi tape
3.  stitching
4.  fussy cutting (hexagons)
5. paint (splashing paint by tapping the paintbrush)

It was fun doing this challenge!  Thank you, Sharlene!

Here is my right page for this 2 Page layout matching all of the colours of the Olympic ring symbol. Again, thank you, Sharlene for this colourful challenge!

My two page layout looks  like this...

Thanks for stopping by!  Looking forward to next challenge!

SWIM TEAM COMPETITION and READY, SET & SWIM! (Olympic Challenge # 10 and #9

Here is my double page layout for Two Scrapbook Friends' Online Olympic Game Challenges.

Joanne threw in her challenge for us to do something about swimming....  I immediately thought of Braden did have a swim meet in London last April!  JUST a PERFECT opportunity to scrap about that event!!!  I did the LEFT page for her challenge #10.

Ann (DT) threw in her challenge for us to do something related to LONDON, England.    I have decided to use the timer clock that came with the kit.  Again, just perfect for her challenge #9.  I did the RIGHT page for her challenge.

I needed to cover the child's face and his name so no one can identify this child.

This is two page layout kit that I had purchased from the Two Scrapbook Friends store.  I believe I grabbed this from their booth at the Scrapfest!

Joanne and Jayne, thank you for your Olympic challenge.  2SF, thank you for this wonderful kit.  They worked well with the pictures that were taken!

Thank you for stopping by!

ALL TOGETHER NOW (Olympic Challenge # 2)

At the Two Scrapbook Friends, Ann (DT) threw in a challenge that our creation includes  Beattles' lyrics or song.  Of course, I freaked out (LOL)  I feel lucky to be able to find lots of information through the internet.  So here is mine,

I chose  "ALL TOGETHER NOW" and I have used this title with the rub on letters that I had for a long time!

Thank you, Ann for this challenge.

TODAY's BIG DAY (Olympic Challenge #7)

At the  Two Scrapbook Friends, Jayne (DT) threw in an Olympic challenge that we use patriotic country flag colour.

I have been working on catching up the pictures for Canada's Day events from the previous years.  I am doing pretty good and I am getting there!  Soon I will be all caught up with Canada's Day event layouts!  I am excited!

Anyway, here is my layout for this PATRIOTIC challenge.  It was at Lake Nippissing.  Sharlene's and my family were together for one week!  We rented the cottages there.  We had a wonderful time!

Obviously, I was playing with my camera taking pictures of the Canadian Flag at this cottage... It sure came handy now for this challenge.  I am glad that I did take the pictures of the flag!
