TWO LAYOUTS FOR BASIC GREY NSD CHALLENGES

I can't wait for Friday but

I still have 7 challenges to complete from

BASIC GREY NSD challenges

Good luck to me :)

Here are a couple of layouts for the challenges

Challenge #2-

Use a die-cut machine or fine-tipped pair of scissors to create a unique title using patterned paper! 

In this layout I cut out the title "BEST BUDS" using my good ol' pair of scissors :)

 

Challenge #3-

Experiment with your printer to add typed journaling to your project!

On this one, I printed the journaling using different fonts with different colors.

 

Thank you for stopping by and i hope you enjoy these layouts.

Bye for now, need to get back scrapping ;)

FIELD TRIP & SWEET MEMORIES CREATIVE SCRAPPERS

Hi, me again. I have a couple more layout to share with you both inspired by
CREATIVE SCRAPPERS sketches and using BASIC GREY goodies.

First up, is my take on
CREATIVE SCRAPPERS sketch #207
"FIELD TRIP"- this was taken last year (October) on my dear son, Joseph's  field trip
to Bates Nut Farm Pumpkin Patch.

 And I love the sketch that CREATIVE SCRAPPERS had last NSD so i made a layout using the sketch and here is what i came up with.
"SWEET MEMORIES"-This was taken my wedding day last April- it's me, my big brother, and my sweet baby girl, Jylian.

Thank you so much again for stopping by my blog. I will share another layout later when the sun is out and I can take a photo of it LOL.

Have a wonderful Tuesday!!!

hugs and lots of love,

Melissa :D

HAPPY SMILES CREATIVE SCRAPPERS #206

Happy Tuesday!!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend.

We had fun at the park yesterday, even though Jylian had an accident, she hit her

forehead pretty bad and sustained a big bump...i was so scared but thank God she was fine, nothing serious but still i am constantly checking up on her.

here is my sweet princess still smiling even after her accident

My kids had fun flying their kites (including my eldest, my dear husband LOL!)

Now, let's move on to some more fun staff. I created this layout inspired by

CREATIVE SCRAPPERS sketch #206

and using a mix of BASIC GREY goodies.

Love, love  the simple sketch from CREATIVE SCRAPPERS and the colors from BASIC GREY Wander collection and a mix of other collections.

Thank you very much for stopping here in my blog and leaving me sweet comments.

Have a wonderful week and God bless.

hugs & lots of love,

A 2 PAGE LO FOR BASIC GREY WEEKLY CHALLENGE

Please don't think that I finished all this layout in one day LOL!

Promise, this will be my last post for today :D

I thank you very much for visiting my blog today. 5 post in one day!

Of course i have to save the best for last- I finished another 2 page layout WOOHOO!!!
