A Sneak Peek

Snowpocalypse left us homebound for three days which left me plenty of time to clean, study, and even get a little scrapping done. So, here is a sneaky for the Round Robin this month. I will be posting the lo on reveal day-this Friday.

Love the McGill Starburst punch that I just bought with a 30% off coupon from Archivers. They have a group of punches that you can use to make your own flowers. I am hoping to add to my McGill punch collection so I can make my own roses. 

Round Robin #1 for 2011

Loved lifting Christy's lo for this month's Round Robin. She had a gorgeous design that used a photostrip so I stole one of my dd's photostrips! I used the Retro Tapestry kit for all the pp and the bling scattered around the page. The twist this month was to use three things on the lo that you have been "hoarding." I did use three things from my stash but, I wouldn't say I was really hoarding the items!

Here's my dd and some of her friends acting silly at the mall. They love to hit the photobooth each time they are at the mall. And, personally, I love scrapping these pics! I tore apart the large black flower and the large blue flower to make the multi-colored flower in this lo. The smaller black roses are from a past kit and the other flowers are Petaloo flowers that were from my stash. The Prima bling and bracket were from past Swirlydoo kits while the leaves were from my stash. tfl!

Fun

Here's my lo for our second Snow Day Long Distance Scrap. We used Pencil Lines sketch #209. Then we added some additional rules. Sheri said we had to use glitter and an embossing folder. Then I rolled the dice and we had to use two butterflies or snowflakes with the first roll and seven flowers, brads, buttons, or eyelets with the second roll. Go here to check out Sheri's lo.

All the pp are from a past Swirlydoos  kit. The small flowers are all new Petaloo while the large flower is Prima. I added some leaves from my stash. The Prima centers, cb swirly, and brads are all from a past kit. Btw, there is glitter on all the flowers and I embossed the cream strip across the top of the page. There are seven small flowers and two butterflies. tfl!

Snow Day!

Yes! Even StLCoP (St. Louis College of Pharmacy) canceled classes for the day! I have been told that has not happened in years! So...my sis and I are doing a long distance scrap until I go into work this evening.

The first challenge: Use Pencil Lines latest sketch, complete the lo, and post to your blog within one hour.

I used my latest Swirlydoos kit and some stuff from my stash to complete this one.

Go to my sister's blog to check out her intrepretation of the sketch.

Using the scraps from my latest Swirlydoos  kit I made this lo based on a sketch from PageMaps. Texting has led to a new language of communication especially for our children. I used the lingo of my dd's generation to convey my love. Again, another self-portrait she snapped in her quest for a fb profile pic.

The large yellow Petaloo flower was from the kit as well as all the pp. I added the large orange flower and smaller flowers, all Petaloo. tfl!
