July 15 Design Team Reveals

Hello fellow scrappers, happy monday!  Today is the 15th so this is a major DT reveal day for me.  I have lots of wonderful projects to share with you today.  Lets start with Lets Get Sketchy.  This week we had a wonderful sketch by team member Ashley Horton.  I liked this sketch instantly!   I decided to create a layout of my granddaughter Amiyah using a photo I had been dying to use.  I like it so much I used it 3 times in this layout!  The Simple Stories Vintage Bliss is perfect for this photo dont you think?

Next up is the current challenge over at About a Girl.  Our mid month challenge for you is to use the sketch and this recipe (torn paper and flowers).  For this layout I dug into my Prima collection of papers.  I knew I wanted a vintage look for this and this Prima Almanac collection was perfect for this Easter photo of my youngest granddaughter Jayla. Wouldnt you agree?

Time to catch the waves over at About a Boy.  We want you to create a layout showcasing water in some way.  Time to pull out those summer beach and pool pictures.  For this challenge naturally I had to create a layout of my grandson Nehemiah.  Fancy Pants Down By the Shore collection was perfect for this!  This is a photo of him from just this summer in the pool.  He didnt want to get in at first but that soon changed!

Last but certainly not we want you to tell us your STORY over at Use Your Words.  UYW is a brand new challenge blog created by yours truly where we focus on creating projects just by using one word that we give to you.  Your project does NOT have to be a layout, it can be a card, mixed media or even altered art.  We have a wonderfully talented Design Team who is just ready to inspire you so please go check us out!  For my "story" I created a layout of me and my handsome fiancee' he is the love of my life and a wonderful man.  They just dont make men like him anymore.  My story is located behind our photo as I didnt want it all to be public lol. 

Whew!  Well thats it for now.  Thank you for sharing this time of your day with me.  I do hope you will pop on over to each of the blogs and visit us.  Not only visit but play along.  We have some wonderful sponsored prizes to give away.  Have a great week all!

Smooches!
