Big Week in my Scrapping World

First off, two weeks ago I submitted this page to Scrap It by Breeza's Creative Team call. (The page had to use 75% of her designs.) Then on Wednesday - Friday she displayed my LO (along with 8 others) on her blog and asked her blog readers to vote on their favorite. The top two LOs with most votes would be on her creative team and guess what, I was one of those! So I'm on a creative team! Yahoo! I am so excited and I can't wait to get to "work"!

Then, I got a few more pages done last week. I realized that I still have a lot of Italy pictures to scrap so I started using challenges at ScrapMatters to do some of those pages. I really like how they are turning out. I think my creative juices must have been flowing. These are the three I finished:{credits}

Cortina was a page I did as part of a Telephone Challenge at SM.

Slovenia was done for a Speed Scrap.

I entered Vajont Dam into a template challenge over at Tangie Baxter's Loft and I won! I was so excited. It's always fun to be recognized and especially for a page I really love and can't wait to print.

I also scrapped this page for a Tuesday Template challenge. Looks a lot like this one, huh? Kind of fun to be able to do that since these two pages will go in two different albums - HD's and my 52 Blessings book.

Oh, and when I have weeks like this, when I do a lot of pages, I get asked a lot how I have the time to do it all...in all honesty, I just do. It's one of my favorite pasttimes, so if I can find the time, I'm going to scrap. And these pages really just flowed. None of them took much longer than an hour and all were done during nap time or after HD was asleep. Oh, and Matt has been studying a lot this week and was out of town on Thursday and Friday, so I can spend my evenings and nights in front of the computer without feeling guilty!

52 Blessings: Week 2

I took this picture of HD while up at Sundance visiting a friend's cabin last week. It's just got a little glimpse into her personality (and of course her best friend). This is a blessing I am reminded of on a daily basis when I get her out of her crib, spend my whole day with her and then kiss her goodnight. Love this girl! This is the same LO/template I used for a template challenge, so I revamped it and used it again. Love when I can do that.

52 Blessings: Week 1

I have been inspired by fellow scrappers/bloggers to create a page counting my blessings for the next year. Once I'm done, hopefully I'll have a nice album full of all my blessings.

Challenges.

Saturday Special - We had to scrap a wedding photo. Almost makes me want to go back and do all my wedding photos. Almost...

{Credits}
Tuesday Template Challenge - I LOVE these pictures of HD. Seriously that little face just kills me.

I did these pages this week for challenges at ScrapMatters. It was fun to work with reds, browns and blacks. A little different from my norm.

Laurel Binders

My sweet laurels reminded me yesterday that I still hadn't done their binders. Wow. I felt so bad. In all honesty, this summer was SO busy that I completely forgot about their binders. Anyway, after the reminder I spent quite a bit of time getting everything together and ready to print. These are some of the "fun" pages that I did. I'd post the others but they have the girls' names all over them.
I used Sprite by E-Zane and Britt-ish Designs.
