{TPE-204} Inspiration

Good Morning! 

It's a new week....meaning it's time for another challenge from The Pink Elephant!  This week, we have a gorgeous photo as inspiration.

 

I used both the colours and the theme as my inpiration for this page I created:



 

 

I used supplies from Fayette Designs Cool Breeze kit, perfect for a beach scene!

 

Thanks for stopping by today!  Make sure you head over to the Pink Elephant blog, and check out all the rest of the Design Team's creations.

{TPE 203} Father's Day

The theme at the Pink Elephant this week was a Father's Day theme!  Fitting, yes?!

I had this awesome photo of my DH and DS that I thought would work perfectly!

I love how this page turned out for me.  The supplies are from Jen C Designs, A Boy's Life.

Thanks for stopping by!

{TPE202} Ready, Aim, Fire!

This week's challenge at The Pink Elephant is a Summer Time theme.  I don't know about any of you reading this but I've got more than a few summer photos that need scrappin'!

I thought this one would be perfect for the challenge!

As is the case for most young boys, my son absolutely loves water guns!  He definitely had a blast with this one!

All supplies are from the Cool Breeze kit, by Fayette Designs.

{TPE-201} Stars & Stripes

Ack!  I totally forgot to get this posted....forgive me....

The challenge (that is now nearly over!) this week at the Pink Elephant is Stars & Stripes.

Since I'm a Canadian gal, I took the Stars & Stripes theme an alternate route!

I took monthly pictures of my youngest for the first year of his life.  As you can see, I'm at month 11, so I am nearly caught up!

All the supplies from this page are from the Mood Swings kit, by Fayette Designs.

{TPE200} Graduation

Good Morning!

It's a holiday weekend here in the north!  If you're one of my fellow Canucks, hope you're enjoying your extended weekend!  If not, thanks for stopping by, and I'm pretty sure you have a long weekend next weekend!

The theme of this week's challenge at The PInk Elephant is Graduation.  My take on this is likely not exactly what would first come to mind.

Take a look, then I'll explain!

I took the plunge and became a Fitness Instructor.  After our weekend of training, we "graduated" to being ready to start teaching.  It's a lengthy process, but now that I'm certified, and teaching on my own, completely worth it.

So this is my Graduation picture of sorts!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great Monday!

{DS99} Birthday Wishes

Good Morning!

It's amazing how good one can feel just getting some crafty time, making cards and scrapbooking!  I feel like a new person!

I LOVE Jen's Deconstructed Sketches, so my mission now is to get some of them caught up!

Here's my take on Sketch 99!

I absolutely love this style of sketch!  There are so many things you can do with it.

I started by printing this adorable Sweet Treat Wryn out, and colouring her in with copics.  I pulled out some old paper from My Minds Eye, and set to work!  The sentiment is from Surely Goodness, a new set from Verve.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Enjoy your day!

{VLV} With Sympathy

Good Morning!  It's a rainy Monday here....perfect for a day off from the gym, running errands, lunch with some girlfriends, and even some crafty time.

I had a friend need a sympathy card, and the Viva La Verve sketch from Week 5 was a perfect fit.

I used the new Surely Goodness set, stamping the flowers on the DP, then cut them out using the Goodness Flowers Die Set.  I am really loving how you can quickly make a beautiful flower using this combo!

The sentiment was from my Treasured Words set, one of my heavily used ones right now!  I LOVE the fonts!

The paper is from an old pack I found hiding in my pile - MME Stella & Rose Hazel.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Enjoy your day!
