Layouts to Share...

It's been a while since I completed a layout.
I'm excited to get back to playing.

Tallyscrapper.com is doing their
DT search and I'm giving it a shot.
Below are the LOs I've submitted.
I'm so excited.

Chicago, Feb 2010
While taking in the sites I decided
I needed a photo of me on my camera
so I started snapping away!
I got caught, lol!
Joseph was able to snap a photo
of me taking a photo of me.

Vacation, May/June 2010
After visiting the USS Midway in
San Diego we visited the park nearby that
honors our men and women of the military.

Momma
My beautiful mom in her 20s.
I love my momma!
I also used Challenge #15's sketch for the lo.

This isn't part of what I turned in,
but I like it just the same and I used
Craftastic Challenge #14's sketch challenge.

Thanks so much for looking!
I hope to share more creations soon!

Craftastic Challenge #15 (6/20-7/15)

*****ATTENTION!*****
I am no longer able to send packages
to international countries.
Participants must be in the US.

Are you ready for challenges?
Here's the details:

Below you'll find 4 challenges.
2 LO Challenges, 1 Card Challenge and 1 Altered Item Challenge.
You are not being asked to do all challenges, though.
For each Challenge you submit to me your name will be
entered into a "raffle" for the monthly RAK.
So if you do one challenge you will be entered once, do 4
then you'll be entered 4 times.
This is just a way to Challenge you and give you the chance
to try new techniques.
If you have suggestions on RAKs or Challenges let me know
and I'll be more than happy to try to incorporate them.
