A few layouts and some goodies

Oh, Saturday, it went like a blur. I did some shopping and washing and then a lil more shopping. Now I'm @ home watching 48 hrs, I've been on my feet all day. The kids are gone so maybe I can create some layouts and watch movies tonight. Here are a few layouts that  I worked on this week. Thanks for looking.

Awesomeness:

Created for March 4 Category Challenge using the color gold. This was hard for me because when I think gold, I think pure gold. I know ther are other variations of gold out there. I think the yellow background looks golden enough. I misted with Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Gold. I didn't think I would like it but its cute.

Free As Can Be:

Created for March Scraplift The Person Before You. I lifted Jazzescrapper's Ultrasound layout.

Honey Bee:

Sorry the picture is so dark, it did not appear this dark during the editing process. Created for march Girls/Boys Challenge. Gabby playing @ the park, this kinda took it's own turn, I did not expect this to be the end result. The banner is BG Hey Girl along with the chipboard Honey Bee. I used mostly scraps to complete this.

Ray Of Sunshine:

Created for March 4 Categories Challenge using homemade flowers. I used 3 punches to make my flowers. The base ppr is Maggie Holmes and the other ppr is Basic Grey Hey Girl. This is Farrah as a 1 year old. 

Smilin N Droolin:

Correction: Photo dated 1/09, not 12/09.....I used Studio Calico Snippits Collection. Inspired by Paige Evens Smile and Grin layout on pg 95 of March Scrapbook Trends. I loved all the banners she created. I will enter this into March Oh Baby Challenge. She was about 7 months old in this picture. The butterflies are Recollections-how cute! 

Snow Queen:

Created for March Scraplift Your Favs challange. I lifted Michelle Hernandez Snow Queen layout. 

Find Joy Everyday: Created for March Monthly Sketch. This is wk 1. I used BG Hey Girl and Cosmo Cricket Upcylce ppr. I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine on one of her banners

Happy: Created for March 4 Category Challenge, the focus was to use "Luck" somewhere. I journaled "As luck would have it you guys got through breakfast w/o a fight and causing a disturbance. Even better Gabby ate all her food..." The base ppr is Bazzill Salmon. I used a new paper pad I got from Michaels, its DCWV Chicadee 6/12 paper. The "happy" title is Heidi Swapp and the butterflies are Martha Stewart

Enjoy Life: Created for March Girls/Boys Challenge. I used Amy Tan Yes Please Reflect for the base ppr. I used scraps of Teresa Collins and Bazzill cardstock for my banner. The stamp is Recollections. The large mat is from DCWV Sunday Afternoon. The bracket and flowers under my title were a gift from MarcilB. The letters are Thickers Hardcover. The butterfly is Martha Stewart. Photo taken last year.
