June Challenge @ CLD

I posted the 2nd June Journaling Challenge @ ColorLineDesign.

For this second challenge of the month, I would like you to journal about the age of someone or something. It could be you, your children, your pets, your favorite shoes, etc.I did a layout of myself when I was 6 months old. I called this layout Cherry Dress.

Hot Shots @ CLD

The Hot Shot Sale is back @ ColorLineDesign. There are 39 items to pick from. Be sure to stop by & check them out.

Challenge Layout

I love doing challenges. Bits2Kits had a kit that they provided. It had great oranges & yellows. I knew just the pictures for this kit. I named this Outside.

I love the result. I think it is very simple & that's what I like. I tried adding some additional elements, but I don't really like adding elements just for the sake of adding elements. I liked having the picture & the title being the focus.

New CT for Helen

I'm honored to write that I've been chosen as a CT for Helen Ehrenhofer. From what I've seen of her kits she has a very dainty style that should be fun to work with. She sells her kits at GoDigitalScrapbooking.com.

Helen just released these great memory boxes for digital scrapbooking. Here's my 1st layout using items from her Assorted Memory Boxes Kit. It was so easy to use & I think it has a fun unique result.

Challenges at ScrapShanty

I LOVE to do template & scraplift challenges. Here's a fun one that I did at ScrapShanty for the week of May 30th. All the papers & elements I got from ColorLineDesign from their awesome May collab kit. I earned this kit for free by doing three challenges at CLD. I thought the colors went perfect with my photos.

I also tried a new font that I haven't used before. It's called "All Used Up." It's different than the fonts I usually used, but I thought it was different & gave it a try.

The photos show my daughter playing peekaboo with me. Peekaboo

I'm Hosting a Challenge

I'm hosting the Journaling Challenge this month at ColorLineDesign. For the 1st challenge this month, I would like you to scrap a simple moment in time. This is a moment where nothing special, in particular, is happening. It is a moment that if you don't consiously realize that you are thinking about this moment all your thoughts will go away & will be lost forever.

Here's my layout for the challenge. May 31st 10 am. It was a beautiful Saturday morning. There wasn't anything special going on, but I wanted to record the simple every day things that I will lose from my head in a just a little while.

There have been some great layouts posted for this challenge already. It's so fun to see these special layouts. Come check these out in the CLD gallery.

June Collab Kit @ CLD

The new June collaboration kit is up at ColorLineDesign.


This is a great boy kit that you can earn when you complete 3 challenges.


These are the two layouts that I made with this great kit. I just love the colors & the word art included with this kit. Look at those great bugs on the second layout.
