Nadrah has an amazing talent and it was sooooo hard to pick just one layout to scraplift. In the end I was really drawn to the placement of the picture and the trees in this layout. You MUST go to Nadrah's blog and check out all of her work. Truely an amazing artist!!!

Challenge #37: Home Visit

This week at Scrap Whispers our newest DT member Helen is setting your challenge - and what a great challenge it is!

Here's your challenge:
Choose an area of your home where a lot happens. Could be a kids' bedroom, play area, kitchen sink, computer table, etc, etc. Somewhere or something that will have changed ten years from now, and which you want to remember. Scrap that. Oh yeah, and don't tidy it first!!

I took a slightly different angle to my layout and decided to scrap about one of our favorite places--our backyard fire pit. Here's what I created:

Scrap Whispers Challenge #36: Make a Splash

This week at Scrap Whispers it's MY turn to challenge you! This weeks challenge is to create a layout centered around water. This could be swimming in the pool, enjoying the view of the lake/ocean, or just splashing in the tub! I can't wait to see what you create!

Here's is my take on the challenge:

Together

Just a fun whimsical layout I completed using one of my Scrapbook Circle kits.

Speedy Sharks

This is a layout I completed with NO patterned paper!
