Julie's EFL Challenge!

This page I created for a challenge at Page In Time hosted by Julie (you need to check out her fun blog, she makes me laugh . What I needed to do is scrap a layout using a scrap product or technique starting with each letter E, L and F. For the letter E, I embossed a flower at the bottom of my page, the F and L are all the flowers and lace. The twisted was to use 3 or more photos. Have a nice Memorial Day!

2 in 1 Challenge!


The first challenge I did was to complete this great sketch that was created by Liz. You need to check out her blog The Scrappiest. She has such an amazing DT and I know you will enjoy looking at all the eye candy.

The 2nd challenge that I combine into the sketch was hosted by Barbara at Page in Time. The challenge was to create a layout using a song title as the title. My title kind of fits with my photo except the boys are standing instead of sitting. Oh well, life can't always be perfect.

Card Stock is Stampin' Up! and Paper is SandyLion.
Ink and Stamp: Stampin' UP!
Other: Embossing Folders Cuttlebug
