Another couple of page...

I have been scrapping so much this week. Mainly after HD is in bed and a little during nap time. It's nice to have a little more time to do this after almost no time for the last two months.

I did this page as part of a challenge at SM. The challenge was to journal from someone else's perspective. I thought this pictures were perfect for the Carl's Jr. slogan. It works, doesn't it?

This page I finished this morning as soon as I woke up. I was struggling with the title last night so I saved it and put it aside. Then, in the middle of the night, I had the idea to do the title as a sign. I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

Crazy Night Speed Scrap

I did another Speed Scrap tonight. It wasn't as smooth as last week because:

1. HD didn't go to bed very well because of diaper rash, so she ended up watching Nemo in the office while Matt did his thing and I scrapped.
2. The scrapper giving instructions had a power outage and so we waited for 1/2 hour until fearless Brittney stepped in with the rest of the instructions.

But it was fun and I did get a page done and I managed to organize some paperwork during the downtime.

So, long story short (too late) here is my page...

Credits can be found here. And in case you're interested, you can find my SM gallery here.

A Glimpse...

Lately, I have been really getting involved over at ScrapMatters. I've participated in their speed scraps, done a template challenge, finished (and was a randomly-picked winner) a Saturday special scrap, etc. I even set up my own gallery over there. It's been fun. It's a great way to re-charge my sometimes waning creative juices.

And here is a page I just did today (thanks to HD's TWO naps). Kind of a fun one to show off her little face.

Another Speed Scrap.

I haven't done much scrapping lately but these speed scraps are fun. I did my second one tonight. Here were the guidelines:

1. Pick 2-3 pictures, black & white or color, and arrange them in a line or a grid. That's kind of two instructions for the price of one. It was hard to get it down to seven total directions!
2. Pick your background paper—it needs to be black or very dark brown or very dark blue. It can be plain or patterned.
3. Place your pictures on your paper and stitch them down. You read it right—they must be stitched down. I don’t care how much stitching, but every picture has to have at least one stitch on it.
4. Title—Your title must contain two words and only two words. You can use a font or an alpha or a combination of the two.
5. Elements—Whatever elements you choose to use, must be tucked part way under at least one of the pictures. No floating elements!
6. Almost there—now use a definition to define one of the words in your title. It should also pertain to your layout—the dictionary is fine. It can be word art or just text.
7. Last one! For this LO you can’t add any real journaling, just your definition and names of people in the pictures and the date. Of course what you do with it after the speed scrap is up to you! But your definition should really cover most of it.

And this is what I did:

This is the first time I've scrapped pictures of myself. Stepping out. I figured that the Wasatch back was a good reason to do it.
All my digiscrap friends out there, you really should check out the Speed Scraps over at ScrapMatters.com. They are fun!

Speed Scrap

I did my first speed scrap on Tuesday. I heard about it here and decided to go ahead. The speed scrap was hosted by ScrapMatters and it was so fun! Matt was in the office with me, entertaining HD so we could all be "together" while I had my head in Photoshop (thanks Matt!) I love these pictures so it was fun to get them on a page.

Today I went back and finished the opposite page using the same kit.
