Boy Meets Girl " Girls Turn" Use same pic more than once.

Hi Scrappers.  Here is my Design Team page for Boy Meets Girl. It is the girls turn and the challenge is to use the same picture more than once.   The Challenge will now run from The 5th of each month to the next 5th of each month. Giving scrappers an entire month to get pages submitted.  I found a Picture of my daughter Karrah when she was 4 years old.  She had started the Ketogenic Diet, Dec 4th 2004. In hopes of helping control her seizures.  We found of course it did and this was our first Christmas that Karrah stayed awake to open presents, play with her toys and not be bombarded with seizures.  We truly felt blessed.  I had ordered the paper from Cest Magnificent online store. I am sorry but can't remember manufacturer.  I added ribbon and blooms and wash tape. I also added an Battenburg Lace Angel.

I know December can be hectic. I hope you find some time to create.  In 2004 we were very lucky to feel like we were touched by an Angel.  Karrah went 5 years without a Seizure.  We still struggle but If she sticks to diet she has no seizure activity.  She is also medication free. 

I am also entering this page at Scrapping Everyday Miracles. Christmas Theme Challenge.

Shape card For Love To Scrap Challenge Blog #19

Morning Scrappers. Here is a Shaped Easel Card for Love to Scrap Design Team.  I have to admit cards don't come easy for me. I can create a detailed layout in 1/2 an hour but it took me 2 days to create this card. 


I used Prima's Firefly paper. A mini Lucky 8 Punch. I coloured the Curly Sue  image with water-colour pencil crayons. I added a doily, Prima blooms, lace and recollection gem stickers. I hope you find some time to play at Love To Scrap the Christmas season is just beginning.  Have a Great day.

The prize is 3 images of your choice from Lacy Sunshine Stamps. Good Luck.

Stuck on U Sketches Project Life "Add a Scallop Circle"

Hi Scrapper's here is my first PL Post for Stuck on U sketches Project Life Design Team.  I hope I don't Disappoint you. I have so much paper and scrappy tools I try to use them as often as possible. The paper collection is from MME Christmas paper pad.  I added a scallop circle as a Title Date card and as a Journal card.  I love to Scrap. So I used a swirly snowflake punch from Martha Stewart and added some snowflakes and a couple roses to the pages.  This is also the beginning of my December Daily book.  The week of US Thanksgiving starts off our Christmas festivities.  

I hope you get some creative time during the holidays.  I know I look forward to crafting.  My kids are really excited to see the book develop and by next year I should have 52  Double layouts to let them enjoy.   Take a look at the Design Teams Creations and try out Project Life.  Full Challenge details are on the Stuck on U Sketches Blog.
