so very proud!

Who's That Girl challenge #11 is So Proud... document something you did that made you proud. Well, at this moment, I am more proud of my sister than anything else. She just graduated from high school, and I was overwhelmed with pride for her.

So, my "girl" for this week's challenge is my sister. And also, because I know she'll never make this page for herself. (Isn't she just the cutest thing, too?!)

We'd love to see your "So Proud" pages linked up over at Who's That Girl! Play along with us—you have 2 weeks to get your page linked up over there before the next challenge posts at the end of the month.


This page was made using the sketch from Design Dollies. As always, I love these girls, and this week's sketch did not disappoint! Check it out HERE, and make sure to play along whenever you can with these girlies!

Whos' That Girl is also having a DT Call!

WTG is looking for two new team members! If you have been hoping to start doing design team work for online sites or your LSS, this is a great way to get experience that you can show off. Its also a fun way to keep yourself challenged!

Expectations for the Job:

1. Complete the majority of WTG challenges during your term (4-6 months with chance to stay on longer). You can skip 1 challenge every 3 months. Challenges post the 15th and end of month.
2. Provide good quality photos of your layout or project on time for each challenge.
3. MUST be into documenting the story - this includes JOURNALING. Your journaling does not have be super long or deep each time, but this is a topic based challenge blog. If you really don't care for journaling, then this is probably not the team for you.
4. At least some of your layouts should be about YOU. This is an All About Me challenge blog after all. Its fine to make some about your family or loved ones.
   
5. Post your layout and a link to the challenge blog on your personal blog and any scrappy sites you frequent.
6. Help once every 3 months with an "idea of the month" (check out previous ones to get a better idea of these).
7. Possibly assist with blog posts.

What is in it for you? A chance to be featured on the blog and have your work seen by others!

Interested? If so, please email jbree22 [at] gmail.com the following:

1. Your blog
2. Your online gallery
3. A brief comment on why you are interested in being on the team
4. One or two layouts that represent your style. These should be the kind of work I can expect from you going forward if you were on the team!

***DUE By June 17th!!!***

Thanks for stopping by today!

playing along with freaks and sketchy peeps

Happy Monday! Since Heidi made such a wonderful sketch for the GDT challenge at Sketchy Thursdays, I decided to play along. Obviously I can't win, and I won't even be linking my page over there, but here's what I made using her sketch. It was just too awesome to pass up!!

If you'd like to play along with us at Sketchy Thursdays, check out this link HERE. One lucky winner will get to be the Guest Designer for the month of July. And of course, we have prizes! Check it out!


This page is also made with the prompt Boys And Their Toys over at Scrap Freak. It's another challenge I'm not eligible to win, but I wanted to use this prompt. Nate definitely has his share of toys, and this picture of him with Optimus Prime from Transformers was perfect. This was all he wanted for his birthday. He talked about it for months!

If you'd like to play along with Scrap Freak for this challenge, check that link out over HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope everyone had a nice weekend!

a quick card challenge

Hi ladies! You have until this Saturday midnight to get a quick card together that is inspired by this card here:


Suzy over at My Paper Tree House is offering up a cool prize for one lucky winner who plays along with us. Link up your entry and view the details HERE.

I made my card with the Sweet Summertime Collection from Echo Park Paper. Still in love with this collection! And you can't deny that it was perfect for this challenge. Hope to see some of you playing along with us!

Hope everyone has great weekend plans!

it's sketchy thursdays!

Hi there! It's Sketchy Thursdays again. These weeks just fly by, don't they? Here is the page I made for this week. Scoot on over to the challenge to see what the sketch is and also the prize!!

I used my Sweet Summertime papers from Echo Park Paper. I love the colors in this collection. They really outdid themselves with the bright and fun in this!

cupcake for a cutie

My little niece turned 2 in May, and when we were all together for Ashley's graduation this weekend, I brought a gift for her and also this little card.

Ella is the only girl in all of the grand kids. My brother, Jeff, has 3 boys. I have Nate. And Greg has Ella. The little jewel amongst the toughies. I loved making this girlie card.


I made this card using The Girl's Paperie sticker book that comes in the June kit from Scrapbook Circle. I LLLOOOOVVVEEEE this kit! And I love THIS sticker book. The Feltie is from Sassafras Lass and was just too cute not to use.

Thanks for stopping in today! I'm going to get to work on making some new pages, and I hope to be able to share with you soon!

a very wise card

Hi there! Today is my sister's graduation party, and this is the card I made for her. Nearly all of the supplies are from the My Paper Tree House June kit.

When I saw this owl in the kit I knew exactly what I was going to do with it. I immediately put him aside, got him a cute little grad cap, and saved him for her graduation card.


Have a great Saturday, peeps! If you're interested in getting your own little owl, click on over to My Paper Tree House. There may still be a few kits left... and one might have your name on it!
