April Challange

[Beanie]

Nice camera, Patty!!

My parents just left and after we dropped them off at the airport, I made a bee line to Michaels! LOL Anyway, I purchased some heirloom type eyelets and some gold letters and I am going to start on my grandparents pages today...we took a 4 generation picture of my grandmom, my mom, me and my daughter, so I can't wait to get going...

 

[Alice28]

Beanie- sounds like you are going to have some very special pages of some special people! Have fun!

 

[Beanie]

Well, I have completed 4 heirloom pages, which came out great! I have a 2 page layout on one side and 2 page layout following that...The first one is of my Great Grandparents on my Grandfathers side...the next page is of my Grandparents when they got married...They came out great! I also completed Andrew's School picture layout, complete with class picture, so another 2 page layout!

Brings me to 6 pages so far this month! Not bad for me considering it took 2 days just to figure out my layouts for my grandparents! LOL

Well - I worked very hard on a two page spread and still haven't finished it ( A LOT of eyelets - and I can't find my hole punch in the mess I can my scrap area!)
But I took 2 rolls of pics with the new camera and I was SO EXCITED to scrap so I got another 7 Pages done! I played with the camera the first day and ended up using the pics! DD studying....(need a pic of that since she hates it and does it as little as possible, DS in tub, pics of the Kitties, and then we went to a place called Kid City and I took a roll so I made 4 pages from that!
Now I am off to finish the other 2 page spread!
So my total as of right now is 32 -
and I am going to AC Mooore tonight! YAH
hope they have good stuff!

Beanie I would love to see youe heirloom stuff whn it is done! I love old pictures!

Way to Go Patty! Sounds like you are on a scrappin roll! I love that! I haven't done anything with eyelets- could you explain what it is?

 

[pattyT]

Alice-28
Eyelets- sound worse than they are -
You make a hole in the paper using an eyelet punch and a hammer then you put the eyelet in place, flit the page over, use an eyelet setter to hammer the back so it goes flat permenantly adhereing it to the page -

They are great for adhereing vellum!

I'll post my pages when they are done!

You are all being so productive!
I have been so sick that I haven't done one page this month.
Hopefully now that I am feeling better, I can get back in the swing of things!!

I managed to get 10 pages done last weekend and thought that was a pretty good start. No time at ALL this week, and tomorrow is booked solid. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can maybe finishe the 2 page spread I have started on Sunday but it is looking bleak.

I am so happy , I finished 12 pages last night. Those are the first pages I have done this month. Hopefully, I will have more to report later on in the weekend. Have a great day everyone!

 

[Alice28]

I just got my prize for winning the March challenge! It was so cool! Thanks Piper!!! She included some darling Lady and the Tramp paper and I had never seen before, fun stickers, cool pirate die cuts, and lots of other great stuff! What a motivator to get out my stuff and scrap some more! Keep scrapping!! And take lots of pics this holiday weekend!

 

[Beanie]

Sounds like a great package, Alice! I am at 8 pages for the month...it has been slow since with Easter right around the corner, I haven't had much time to do anything! Hopefully after Sunday I will be able to work more on my Scrapping!!

Patty, if I do decide to post them, I will let you know...I am not done with the entire group of layouts yet..

 

[bananiem]

I've completed 48. This is so unbelievable for me!!

 

[FantasticDisFamily]

Wow 48 is awesome! I've managed to get 12 pages done. Not a wonderful start!

I have to finish off the roll I have in the camera. DD needs some of them for a science project! But that doesn't mean I'll get any more scrapped!

Deb

 

[Beanie]

[bananiem]

Here is my April count so far.......35.....I am thrilled. I had a evening crop (6 hours) and an all day crop (12 hours) so I got alot done. It would be more if I would quit getting so cutesy....lol! I am in the process of getting my 18 years old book caught up for graduation this June. Got to keep busy. I have another crop next Friday night. Cant wait. Plus the hubby is traveling again which leaves me lots of time for myself....dah...guess what I do...lol

I actually did some more last night! My son was in the paper this week with his Kindergarten class for attending the Teddy Bear Clinic they have here...It is so cute, he is holding his stuffed "Sulley"! Anyway, that was a double layout, since there were 3 pictures of his class in the paper...One holding their "teddy bears", another of them watching the Xray technician take an Xray of a teddy and the last was of them in the Ambulance! It was cute and I found some great Teddy Bear Nurse Cliparts to print out last night for the pages!

Anyway, I got those two pages done plus another page of his class making Bird Nests out of Chocolate and Chow Mein Noodles...They did those yesterday afternoon and I stopped in to take pictures of them! It was fun!

So this week, I am up 3 more pages for a total of 11!

<b>Here are the Bird Nests that the kids made yesterday! Melted Chocolate, Chow Mein Noodles and Jelly Beans! It was alot of fun!</b>
