Scrap Whispers Blog Hop: Week 4

This week for the Scrap Whispers Blog Hop the design team is showcasing the very talented “Sarah”!!

Sarah had some great layouts to lift! I choose this really sweet layout to scrap this birth announcement.

Here is Sarah's layout:


And here's my scraplift of the layout:

All of Sarah's layouts were all so cool! I had a really hard time choosing just one. In the end I just really loved the row of buttons on the left. The simplicity of this layout really drew me in.

For more scraplifts of this great designer check out Telah's Blog. If this is your first stop on the blog hop, make sure to go back to the Scrap Whispers blog to start from the beginning. When you reach the end of the "hop" there is a special surprise for you! This is "officially" our last week of the blog hop. I have had so much fun looking through all the different blogs. I have found so much inspiration from all of you. I'm working hard to get this going for another month. Let me know if you would like to be showcased on a future Scrap Whispers Scraplift Blog Hop.

Challenge #39: Mismatched Letters

This week on the Scrap Whispers challenge we have a FUN one for you!!!! I love layouts that use mismatched letters. They are so fun and whimsical! Our challenge for you this week is to create a layout with a mismatched title. Use a combination of at least three different fonts and/or colors. Mix and match however you please!

Here's my take on the challenge (using the August "Life is a Zoo" Moments to Remember kit):

I used 7 different stickers letters in this layout. Such a great way to use up those extra letters in your pack. I really need to do this more often!!!

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:
