Scrap Machine

Before I forget, Cooper cut a new tooth yesterday, one of his top eye teeth made its way through without too much fuss. My first intention was to post pictures of the boys at the fair, but wow I have a whole pile of layouts to post here. With the two challenges a week for the Amazing Digi Scrapping Race, the one per week for the Digital's Next Top Scrapper, and the new kits that my designers are pumping out, I've been a scrapping machine! You can click on any of the images to enlarge them and see the journaling and credits.

DNTS Challenge 3 - CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
We had to choose a TV show that matches our lives.
I couldn't think of a show that had a lot of yelling and
sarcasm, so I went with CSI: Crime Scene Investigation


Okay, this was kind of funny...for the last challenge of
the Amazing Digiscrapping Race, we had to scraplift one
of our partner's RACE layouts. I had this all set before
I realized it wasn't one of Vicky's race layouts. But I
still liked the page and I used one of Nina's new kits
so it worked out well. Then I had to find a race layout
of Vicky's to scraplift...


"Cast Away" - using Christina Sturmaggio's new
"Wrought Iron Butterfly" kit available at Sophia Sarducci Designs.
So this was a scraplift of one of Vicky's RACE layouts, but when
Lori saw it she so kindly advised and reminded me (gee i need to
read the instructions!!!) that it had to be ABOUT the race. About
our favourite part of the race. Again, I loved how it turned out, and
it was Christy's new kit so it worked out well. Back to the drawing board AGAIN!

I was thrilled to have this layout of my Carter and Jill's Carter
featured in the NDISB newsletter this month!



At last! A scraplift of one of Vicky's RACE layouts, it's about my
favourite part of the race...so I scraplifted THREE of my partner's
layouts just to finish this one challenge! Again I used Nina's products
and I was happy with how it turned out with Vicky's beautiful picture.


And here is another of Christy's kits; a new one called "Ribbet"
which was just ideal for these pictures of Carter taken last year
when he was playing with this frog at my parents' house. This kit
is another awesome one and I'll have much more scrapping to do with it!


Whew. So that's a lot of scrapping. Now for a couple fair pictures. What a blast! It was funny to see both boys were having so much fun but Cooper was so serious-looking! He did crack a few smiles on the rides but for the most part he was straight-faced.






This was too messy to eat at the fair...he delved in the minute we got home!


The morning after...Breakfast of Champions...cotton candy!
