MEMBER CROP AT YMBD THIS WEEKEND!

2009-03-13T11:17:00.000-07:00

Member Crop at YMBD this weekend!

Just an FYI - there is a member-run crop this weekend at YMBD!

What is a member run crop? well it is a crop where you (the members) post the challenges and pick the winners.

Why would you want to play if you have to do all the work? in a word PRIZES!!!!

lots and lots of YMBD bucks to be exact.

So get your rear over there and play along! If you are not a member already, join up, it's free. The fun starts at 7pm tonight, March 13th (although a little birdie told me that there are some pre-crop challenges floating around already)

Scrap Whisper Card for the love of my life.

I used the song Jump On It for the title of this layout. My 2 year old grandson Cason jumping on the trampoline. He is silhouetted by the sun. (Sorry for the dark picture, but IRL it is really a cute one.)

Layout for Scrap Whisper weekly challenge

2009-01-10T09:45:00.000-08:00

For New Years it was a face lift for our inherited house in Fl. So I titled the layout "Out with the Old" and I can't wait for next week for it to happen.

Challenge from Scrap Whisper

2008-12-04T01:14:00.000-08:00

Another layout and a card for the weeks challenges at Scrap Whipspers. The layout is of my 4 1/2 year old grandson taken on Thanksgiving day. The card has two tags that pull out. The lion and lamb tag says peace and the angel tag says joy.

Week 9 - Scrapwhispers

2008-12-02T12:59:00.002-08:00

My layout for week 9 is of my youngest grandson Cason sound asleep on the stairs.

Challenge #8 - For the Love of the Cushion!

2008-11-24T09:15:00.000-08:00

I loved the colors to work with, and had the perfect picture. My granddaughter got a tattoo this summer, so I used her tattoo for my pictures.

Grandson's wedding -

2008-11-21T23:42:00.000-08:00

In August our family was all together for our oldest grandson's wedding. Thought I would share a couple of layouts with everyone from this wonderful event.

Week #7 Scrap Whisper challenge - useing a cartoon for inspiration

2008-11-18T23:04:00.000-08:00

This cartoon of Garfield inspired this layout. Garfield answers Jon's question of "are those frozen peas?" by saying " they're all the rage this season." I took a student team 4 years ago to England. While on a tour of London, our first day there, I tripped and fell on my knee.

Hidden journaling reads:
I took a team of students to England over the Easter break from school. While sightseeing in London, I fell. The only thing I could use for an ice pack was a bag of frozen peas. I told someone that my "pea" bag and I were inseparable . You really need to watch how you say things.

Under the tag is a copy of an award that my team gave me. "The Bag of Peas" award.

I can laugh at this incident now. Wasn't so easy then.

Another Scrap Whispers layout.

2008-11-15T09:35:00.000-08:00

To do a layout with STICKY. After scrapping for a while, glue gets on the fingers and you end up sticking to the item you want on the layout.

Darja's Baby Dedication

2008-11-12T06:50:00.001-08:00

Newest layout

2008-11-08T06:14:00.000-08:00

Here is my newest layout for the Scrap Whispers weekly challenge.

This is my youngest grandson. When he gets tired he just goes to sleep where ever he is.

Another layout.

2008-11-01T14:54:00.000-07:00

This is for the Scrap Whispers weekly challenge. To use the word "Together", Family theme, Blue color and light tan, Flowers and a Themed Sticker. (My scanner washed out the light tan color and it looks white, but IRL it is light tan, almost beige.)

Since this is a layout for a family that my DH did a baby dedication for, the wording is in German, but it means...We come together to bless.

2008-10-22T08:48:00.000-07:00

More layouts for the Scrap Whispers weekly challenge. This week is to do a layout(s) with the tic tac toe grid effect.

Layout #1 - I called this layout, "Arches in Venice" from our trip there this summer. There were so many different arches, that I just did a whole layout for them.

Layout #2 - This picture was taken after getting off of the cruise ship the Emerald Princess in Venice. Since all roads are water, it was really interesting getting a Water Taxi to take us to the hotel. The water was so rough because of the Water Buses and Taxi's that it was hard to get on the Taxi without feeling like you would fall either into the boat or into the water.

Layout #3 - On the Scrap Whisper blog there was a Tic Tac Toe game you could play. I player one game (and won) so I used the winning game as a plan for my layout. This layout is pictures of the hotel we stayed in, in Venice.

Grandson # 10 - First Hair Cut

Here are three more layouts I did for the Scrap Whispers weekly challenge. This is for week #2

A Beautiful Park in Prague where friends of ours got married in July 2008.

We had to walk down this street every day we were in Prague on our way to the center of the city.

Our grandson Thomas playing football.
