I wanted to share a few projects that I got done at my fundraising Crop for the Congo on Saturday.
I decided to work on scrapbooking my Photo-a-day for summer 2012 photos.... Here's week 2:
I used American Crafts cardstock (12x12), My Mind's Eye patterned paper and Papertrey Ink cardstock (white, aqua mist), stamps (fabulous frames) and dies (modern alphabet, fabulous frames.)
Then, using my scraps, I decided to make a card for Moxie Fab World's Focal Point Challenge, as well as for the My Mind's Eye Blog September Challenge: which was to create a layout and card using the same products.
I used My Mind's Eye patterned paper, diecuts and decorative brad and Papertrey Ink cardstock (aqua mist), stamps (pretty peonies, rosie posie) and dies (rosie posie).
I also made another card, this time for Moxie Fab World's Repetition Challenge:
I used Papertrey Ink cardstock (rustic cream, simply chartreuse), stamps (love lives here: holidays) and dies (love lives here). The patterned paper is new Simple Stories, from their 6x6 paper pad.
I had so much fun at my crop--- I was quite sad when it was over, knowing I didn't have it to look forward to anymore. I could easily get together with friends once a week to scrapbook (if our schedules permitted.) At the crop, in addition to hosting and preparing food, I finished a couple of card sets, made some paper beads and made the layout for week 1 of my photo-a-day for summer, which I'm hoping to post later this week....
Thanks for looking!
What fabulous cards! And I loooooove that two page layout! Great job!!!! I know how you feel about a crop being over. I did an online one this weekend and can't wait for an in person crop again! Love what you did during your crop. Can't wait to see the rest!
ReplyDeleteI had lots of fun, too, and also wish I could manage time to do that every week (or at least every month!!)...except for the part where you make so many yummy treats that I can't stop eating!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
I love your two page layout, Leigh. The CAS style creates a very neat and 'organized' look to the pages. The 'extra' papers made wonderful cards too. I especially like the colour and pattern combination on the last card.
ReplyDeleteYour crop sounds fantastic. Wish I lived close enough to attend.
ReplyDeleteLove love love your Card with love Lives here!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo a day layout! And your cards are lovely.-Irma
