Weekend online crop March 2016
Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Here's the one I finished last night. It was the map prompt. I haven't had a chance to look at today's prompts. Weekends fly by too quickly.

Thank you!

Oh my, what cute faces! They are beautiful. As is your layout.
Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Last one for the weekend. Zumba starts at 5 and I need to cook supper before hiding up the Hill.
The challenge was to use products from Shimelle's first collection. To really save time, I searched Pinterest and found one of her pages.

OMGosh Pam! They are both fantastic. Love the first kit one's colors. Good for you using up those older frames.
So drum roll...I made one!!!! Talk about luck and scrap lifting,..I chose Jo Boland's color challenge and definitely scrap lifted. But the coolest thing is that I had a totally neglected Echo Park Kit "a boy's life" that had all the colors in it! Score. I really had fun making this one photo LO. Yesterday was the birthday party for grandson's 4th and granddaughter's 2nd Their birthday's are in February and December so mom and dad just combine them. Wonder how long that is going to be acceptable to the kids? Anyway it was held outdoors at Folsom City Zoo Sanctuary. IT POURED the entire time and really was a lot of fun. I did not take very many photos. Just enough to have some scrapping fun but I preferred to be "present" and in the moment and enjoy the time with them.
I'm pretty happy with my efforts even though I totally copied Boland's LO ideas. I love the blue paper which, to me, looked like puddles of water with raindrops making circles like they do. I was also lucky that this kit had 2 sticker sheets. I was happy to use some items from my stash along with 3 PL cards. I'm exhausted!

Such a bright fun page on such a dreary day. Yikes. You must have all been SOAKED.

Thanks Pam and Jen.
It wasn't too bad as long as you stayed under the double canopy. But the walk all the way in and out...yes, pretty soaked. The kids loved it with all their rain gear on.

Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Farley, your page is great. That paper line is perfect with your photo, which is adorable. And you get extra points for having scrapped the photo within 24 hours, well done!
Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Pam, you've been very productive with this crop; nice layouts! Looking at bits of Shimelle's various collections I'm realizing how much I like the current one; I think I feel some Starshine in my future. I was telling Marianne (albeit maybe just in my head) that there were a couple of layouts on Shimelle's blog this weekend that I really like, that are a bit of a departure from her usual layered look. Although I wasn't scrapping during this crop, I'll be referring back to her pages this weekend when I get home and have time to scrap in a couple weeks.
Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Those are all really nice layouts. Wonderful embellishing, Pam and Farley.
Re: Weekend online crop March 2016
Thanks!
Keitha, I really love the colors in this new collection. It wasn't easy to find what I wanted from this collection - and still would like more of it. Some online stores haven't received any of it. AC moved their warehouse to a new location which has delayed shipping to retailers but when I emailed AC to complain, they said they were having delays in getting products to the warehouse. Bad management if you ask me. The colors are richer than any of her previous collections - more blue and less green/yellow in the colors - and that could be just the way I see color, too.
I have an idea in my head for the Circle challenge. IF I have any energy left when I get home, I hope to get it done.
