Scrap Queen

 We don't go bowling often because my kids like it but don't love it. I took some photos when we went with some friends. Figured I better scrap one of the few times we actually bowl! To scrap these photos I used a sketch challenge from the Sketch n Scrap challenge blog . I changed it a little bit to add a second photo. My Layout: The Sketch: To Create this Layout I Used: American Crafts Project Life: kraft edition paper pack Echo Park: The Story of Our Family sticker elements - journal strips Little Yellow Bicycle: chipboard stickers - star and "chillin" tabby Illustrated Faith Bella Blvd: diecuts - "let's do this" and tabby Suburbia Cricut DS Image: bowling pin and bowling shoe Zaragoza Std Font via the DS: title "Bowling" Twine from my stash Now it's your turn!

 In a previous post I had scrapped my kids getting Zombie Makeovers. Here are the layouts I created of how their makeovers turned out. There was actually a group of kids in this shoot so if you come back you may see more photos scrapped.  For the layout of my son I used a sketch from the Sketch n Scrap challenge blog .  For the layout of my daughter I used a sketch from the A Cherry On Top forum.

 Back in October of 2019 both my kiddos convinced me to allow them to be in a Zombie photo shoot. I say convinced because I'm not a huge fan of Halloween or Zombies. Anyway, I did let them participate for the second time as they were in a similar photo shoot the year before. I'll admit these shoots are a lot of fun. To scrap these photos of them getting their Zombie Makeovers I used a sketch from the Sketch n Scrap challenge blog.

There is one event that I look forward to all  year long! It's the annual Scrapbooking Retreat that happens on October. I go with my friends and my sister and her/our friends. It is, without a doubt, so much fun. What could be better than spending an entire weekend doing nothing but scrapbooking and chatting with your friends?! There is a short hike and great view near the lodge where we stay and every year we try to get a little bit of exercise and then show that we did by taking a selfie at the top. To scrapbook this selfie I used a sketch from Sketch n Scrap .  The Layout: These are my scrap friends :) The Sketch: Another look at my layout: To Create this Layout I used: Carta Bella: Hello Again paper pack Miss Kate's Cuttables: banner Alexis Mattox - Emma Rae font - tag font Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge - tag Blueberry Regular system font via DS Carpe Diem: Faith - decorative clip twine Thank you so much for stoppi...

During the summer of 2018 we had a season pass to Silverwood. We went to the amusement park frequently so I have a lot of Silverwood photos to scrap. I decided to just showcase some highlight in our family album so we don't have a ton of layouts about the same thing. In this layout I focused on rides that go really high up in the air. Panic Plunge and Spin Cycle - two rides my son enjoys going on.  I used a sketch from Sketch n Scrap  to scrapbook these photos.
