Cle Elum, WA

This week's challenge - 1) orange and brown color scheme, 2) stripes, 3) polka dot ribbon. Layout design is a scraplift from the pages of Scrapbooks, Etc. magazine.

I took this photo in 1989. It is one of a series of photos I took along the Teanaway River in Cle Elum, Washington. I scrapped the other pictures over 3 years ago (see below) but since they are all water pictures, this one didn't seem to "belong" so I didn't use it on the old layout.

Challenge #13. The three products for this challenge were 1) use at least 2 photos, 2) gingham ribbon, and 3) incorporated an accordion fold somewhere on the page.

Challenge #12


This week's challenge is to use 1) hot pink and black color scheme, 2) stitching, and 3) 12 of one item.

My very first digital scrapbook page!! Woohoo. I love learning new stuff. Anyway, with my new printer came Scrapbook Factory software so I thought I'd play around a little. Did this page in less than an hour after installing the program. Very easy to use and oh so fun! I'm sorry for the poor quality image though. Guess I need to learn a little more about how that works.

Another altered memo book gift


Papers are Life's Journey, rubons are MME Distressed Effects and BG Wholly Cow, machine stitching, lace, twill, and cheapie Dollar Tree memo book.

Just one today


Hoped to get a couple more of these done today but got stuck on the second idea. So here is today's altered Dollar Tree memo book. I think this is my favorite so far.

Scraps of Chatterbox papers, purple twill, and the purple flower charm.... believe it or not, from one of Gracie's summer sandals!!! LOL Cute, huh?
