Crop Time

I just recently came across a new scrappy site & they are having a fun Grand Opening Sketch Crop over the next couple of days. May 20-25, I believe. I've enjoyed a lovely scrappy day today......actually gotten a couple layouts done & a birthday card for a special someone who has a birthday coming up this week. Come check things out at My Scraps & More.

All of the challenges are sketch challenges....but with a twist. This one of Michael we were challenged to use 1 or more photos that were smaller than 4x6. Pretty easy for me, because I love to use the wallet sized photos.

In this one of Ashley Cates' senior recital we were challenged to use words as part of the design element.

And this pretty birthday card sketch was combined with the challenge to use PINK.....any shade. ;-)

*************************

Here are a few of the things that I had scrapped this past week. Several kids at church are graduating this year & so I needed a few grad cards.

And this was Ella's birthday card.....her BD was this past Wed.

Now, I love how this last layout turned out.....but I HATE how it scanned. The stupid scanner kept cutting the very top edge off. I flipped & moved & scanned & re-scanned until I wanted to scream!! So, I finally just gave up & posted it as is. You get the gist of it.......just the very top edge cut off.....as you can see by the little bee embellishment.
