Layout Challenge #19: May 8th-May 16th~ WINNER IS PRINCESSNANCY96

[jacksmomma]

Layout Challenge #19...take two! (I attempted to post this a few minutes ago only to find out that I was disconnected from the internet and had to start over! )

Anyway to the challenge...for this challenge I am going to attempt to keep it simple. Here lately I have been noticing that some of the best layouts have unstaged pictures and everyday happenings. (We sure have plenty of "everyday happenings" around here with our little man ) So for this layout you must have a sequence of photos showing an event. (A minimum of 2 pictures please) Along with some journaling to detail what is happening or why this was worthy of scrapping. (It does not have to be Disney.) I will choose a winner in the evening of the 16th (it will be after 5pm).

I hope this is not too difficult! I will try and post my LO early to get the creative juices flowing.

Have a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day to all you Mommas out there!

DS is in bed, so my brother was the designated drawer for this week's random draw. He was usure of what to do until I told him to just choose a slip of paper!

The winner is... Princessnancy96

Wonderful job to all of the posters! You did some great pages. Thanks for letting me be your hostess this week. I am looking forward to what Nancy comes up with for us next week!

Hey - look @ you! You've already got the new challenge started!

Question: For the challenge, do you have to make a *new* page to fulfill the challenge guidelines? I'm all new here. That last attempt was my first! And, now that I know what you WIN, I'm not really sure I want to "compete" I don't know that I could come up with a creative challenge --- much less pick a WINNER!

I'm sure the 2 of you are scrapping away ...... I did make a stop @ Michael's on the way home today

All of the "rules" are really up to the host of that challenge. I generally say you have to start a new layout (or post something that we have not seen before) just to get motivated to get all this scrapping done! Sometimes there is a prize that you win at the end of the challenge (besides the honor of picking the next challenge).

I really hope you continue to participate...coming up with a challenge is not too bad.

Jump right in!!! Don't let us scare you off! The only reason I have this one about done is I was already working on some of my DD's track events from the past 4 years. The set I did and one that she, my DD, did last week are a sequence of events where she was running her 2 mile event at her track meet this year. The one I'm going to submit this week is over her going over the 100 m hurdles her 8th grade year.. I have the before, the take off, over the hurdle and landing!

As for picking the winner... My kids do it by drawing a winner from the list of names in a jar. I can't just pick a winner as being best overall because each layout has WINNER written all over it!!!

Hope you will join us.. Ok, I'm a bad scrapper.. I came home, ate lunch and took a 2.5 hour nap today. 2.5 hours of valuable scrap time lost..and now where am I? Checking in here..

Off to the scrap room.. Got some photos in that I need to do for my DS8's Flat Stanley book.. He was at Pigeon Forge with StitchIsOurHero and family!!!

I guess I'm first. The event is my daughter's wedding and the lacing up of her wedding dress. While this is not an everyday event, it does illustrate a specific sequence. (If you don't think it fits the challenge, I won't be mad!) Actually, I forgot the everyday when I started to work on this - I only remembered the sequence of photos

and a close-up of the journaling

 

[ColleenG]

That is beautiful! What a great moment to have captured!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Great LO Vanyel!!! OmG! That is adorable!!!

I've got mine done, one more still to do but in my mess of a room, I misplaced my dd's hurdle photos..
DD even completed one.. I'll take photos and post later today!

Oh, Great LO! This is beautiful and it definately fits the challenge. Wonderful job.

Absolutely beautiful, vanyel! Those are great photos to have captured.

I actually made this layout to qualify for both this and the other paper challenge - hope that's okay.

The pictures aren't great for this one, but I had to use them to show one of my kitty's favorite pasttimes - unravelling the roll of toilet paper.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Love it! Especially love the definition of a cat! That is so the truth!!!

 

[jacksmomma]

Well, I wanted to have this layout done by now, but a power outage and a dull cricut blade has slowed me down! I hope to post my LO tomorrow afternoon, but we will see. This is a backwards week so far!

So cute, and I loved the text!

Choo trains worked for me before, I think I'll try it again! This is from last weekend's rail celebration in Roanoke VA.
It's kind of a stretch but the sequence is from me walking around looking for a good photo angle.

So I finally got around to scrapping again. I just happened to be up to these pictures of DS and our good friends' DD. They are 2 months apart and are just too cute together.

DS was pulling her hair as I was taking the pictures. Then BFF's DD got up and walked away. Smart girl!!

 

[jacksmomma]

Finally I have a LO to post! I am very pleased with how this one turned out. This my DS and his cousin Sydney. They are 5 months apart and think of themselves as siblings. These were some "outtakes" pictures that DH just happened to get when they were playing. I loved how they showed the action and captured the looks on their little faces. This is the first time I have ever printed text and glued it to a LO. I am hoping the glue bumps disappear when the glue dries. If not I might have re-do that part of the LO.

P.S. To Sydney's Mom if you see this...thanks for letting me post such fun pictures of Jack's sister!

 

[New England Eeyore]

So cute!

This was a two page layout, and the journal box was on the other page... it was also handwritten - we hadn't bought our color printer yet!!

DBF's favorite animal is a penguin, can you tell?
We were babysitting my brother and sister - I think my parents were in New York, but I don't remember. Anyway - we took them sledding, even though DBF didn't want to go. I think he ended up having more fun than all of us.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Ok, here it is! I'm happy with it... I still need to do the one w/ her doing the 100m hurdles but I lost one of the photos in a stack of photos and keep getting side tracked with something else and than remember what I went down to begin with! DUH!

Here is DD at her track meet this year..
