My twistedsketches.com page for december

This was my first time entering this one and I loved it. The sketch is really cute and I had some fun with the transparency twist. I'm not sure you can see it in the photo but the picture is covered in a piece of transparency film to further the whole challenge. The photo is of my beautiful niece who is growing up so fast.





This was my first attempt at the little handmade flowers on the bottom right of the page. I saw another lady do some of this kind of paper twisting and I had to give it a try it !!!




Just click the this link if you want to see her blog and her flowers too ! http://www.jamirodolph.blogspot.com/  She does a little demo of how to make them and I am certainly going to be giving them a couple more spots on some future pages !!!! Thanks for sharing !!! But for now...here are my version of them...this is my first try to give me a few days and I will get better !


  





For now be sure and run on over and do a page for the sketch challenge at twisted sketches. I thought the site had loads of great ideas for using items that you dont normally think to use !

December Checking the List Challenge








Okay, this one has made me a little mad ! He He ! I have searched this house over for a little tiny jingle bell or some type of "Bell" to put on this page...dont worry...Im going to find it !!! But it will stress me less if I am looking for it after I have already posted this...so...Here it is...Minus the little bell.

This one came by way of http://www.alacartechallenge.blogspot.com/ and the challenge has been lots of fun...minus the part where I cant find a bell ! I believe you can enter this one thru the 30th of December. So there is plenty of time to get in on it.

Requirements

1. Use a list
2. Use the colors Red, Black and White
3. Use a bell (this was the the most challenging part for me !)
4. Use a bow
5. Use book paper
6. Use glitter

You can use any sketch you want on the page as long as you meet those requirements.

This blog (http://www.alacartechallenge.blogspot.com/) is my very favorite and the inspiration from the girls there and the pages everyone shares is GREAT !!!


Pamela's world of scrap Challenge





I did this page today for the challenge at the Pamela's World of Scrap Blog and I think I like it. The paper had flowers on it so I cut into them to to let them overlap onto the photos so it wouldnt seem so square and flat. The words along the side and all the paper is from the Doodletype stack of paper from DCWV.

The page is one of those pages that in person is so much prettier than it scanned :(

The thickness of the little chipboard clipboard (say that three times fast if you can) made the scanner shadow just a bit when scanning it. But in person it is so bright and cheerful. The only rules for this one was that you used the sketch that was provided by the site. Give it a try !!!



The little clipboard notes say things that I want Mikey to hear someday..."You are the best thing to ever happen to me" and those mushy kind of things that moms say !
