Me again. A layout I did last night with the first sketch from the Got Sketch 104 class! I changed it up just a tiny bit. These are pictures of the kids from Jan/Feb this year that I wanted to scrap but didn't have enough from each month to make a page.
I LOVE these classes!! They give you a sketch, a layout following the sketch and lots of ideas. Then everyone taking the class posts their work so you can see how they interpreted it too. I get TONS of great ideas taking these.

Quick post

Two new layouts I did this week. This is Xmas 2008 (wow, only 6 months later, a record!) and a layout from when I broke my ankle last year. (Dec 2007) I have been walking again for over a year now so to celebrate, I ran a 5K on Sunday - the Family Y race. 42 minute finish and my next goal is 35 minutes for 5K by the Labour Day Classic.

Have a great rest of the week! Jen

Some stuff I've done

Oooo... long time no post. I'm still here, just forgot to post over here too!!

Here's the cards I did up for my SU open house 2 weekends ago....






































































Here are my BOM challenges for May and June...





























This will be my family tree (I am using that apple pp in the background - cutting them all out and using to list my parents, grandparent, great-grand parents, etc)





Here are the frames I did 3 weeks ago. One of them is for my dh for Father's Day and one is for me. I thought we could hang them in our work offices. I just need to print pictures for them and they are done.





















Lastly, here is the layout I did tonight from Carla's DT challenge over Lil Scrappers.
Have a great week everyone! Hope to have LOTS more to post in the days ahead... Jen

Got Sketch #83 and colour challenge

Good Tuesday morning... it is snowing here in Prince George... (yup, you read that right... May 19th!!)

Here is my take on sketch #83 from the Got Sketch blog. I took my colour inspiration from Carla's challenge over at Lil Scrappers - she asked us to do a card in turquoise and orange. I added in the brown as I thought it added that little something. I used my "Top Note" Big Shot die again (I LOVE this thing) to do the plaid shape and a diecut journalling tag (cut in half) for the orange.

Have a great day and happy scrappin'. Jen

DT Card and last of the online crop

Me again. This first picture is the last of the challenges from the online crop last weekend. These were done Tuesday but I'd saved them to my laptop and forgot to put them up here :) This was Mel's challenge to make these teeny tiny cards and I think they'd be great as gift tags or maybe to put an eyelet in the corner and tie onto a bottle of wine.

The second picture is my DT card for this month for Deanne over at Just My Sketches. I was having some trouble with it but then I found this cute Stampin Up paper I had gotten and it all just put itself together. Hope you like!

Another card...

Here is another card I did for the online crop last weekend. We were to make it more vintage (which I thought the pp felt a bit like) and to have a monogram and a diamond shape. Enjoy!

NSD Online Crop at Lil Scrappers

Aimee's Make N Take - Gift bag
Carla's Make N Take - Party Favours

Carla's card challenge - window cards


Carla's LO challenge - 6x12 layouts (this is an acrylic 7x12 page - but the extra 1" is the space for the holes to put in the album - the cover page for my 2008 family album)

Mel's Card Challenge - Home Tweet Home card - had to have a house of some sort on the front - this is all paper pieced - I drew my own pattern and cut out with various pp.

Bev's Challenge - we did a list for Bev answering questions, the 2nd part was to take one of our answers and make a page around it. The one I used was "the one thing I will always be... is loved"

Aimee's layout challenge - Use your scraps! This page is about Garret going down on the plane for his allergy testing. He was a real little trouper and even though he was a bit scared, he sat back and enjoyed the adventure of a new thing.

I got all this done yesterday for the online crop (still two days to submit your stuff too!!) I am so tired today from staying up so late last night but... let's face it, when it is scrapbooking, do I really mind so much??!! :)
Great week to you all!! Jen xoxo
