Beautiful work Linda!  Thanks for posting your art and sharing it with us!!

Day 18 40 Day Challenge LACE

I did these two layouts the same because they are photos of both of my grandmothers.  They mirror each other.  Lots of lace! I used different colored backgrounds to emphasize the photo colors.

WOO HOO!!!! THIS HAS BEEN FUN!!! ANYONE ELSE ENJOYING THIS CHALLENGE!

Leave a comment if you're joining us and how you are feeling doing this challenge.  I'm having a blast!  So far I've been able to keep up.  It feels so good to be scrapbooking again!

Day 17 40 Day Challenge BIRDS

Don't ask me WHY I chose "Birds", because I have no idea.  I managed to work them in to these pages.  First time using my Paper Pups Cricut Cart.  Love it!!!

Day 16 40 Day Challenge GLITTER

For these layouts I used some papers I bought at a garage sale last year.  I painted some Tim Holtz grungeboard pink and then glitter embossed them before adhering them to my pages.  I love gray and pink together.  The butterfly signifies my mom and my niece Becky who are missing from the photos.

Day 15 40 Day Challenge ORIGAMI (fish)

FYI REGARDING MY CHALLENGE PRODUCTS

I have been a consultant (pretty much for hobbyist purposes) for Close To My Heart for many, many years so most of the product I have been using is from them.  I am not a "purist" though.  I love Basic Grey, Ranger, DCWV, Graphic 45, SEI, and lots and lots and lots of other manufacturers.  The fact is I LOVE IT ALL!  I also love many different artist mediums.

Going away this weekend

Hey Everybody, just an FYI, I'll be out of town this weekend and will catch up posting on Monday.  Stay tuned and Keep on Scrapbooking those challenges!  I can't wait to see yours.  Please remember to let me know when you post (let me know if you need help in posting) so we can see what you've done!  Just leave a comment under one of the 40 Day Challenge posts.  Thanks and HAVE FUN using it up!!!  See you again on Monday!

I scraplifted this cool layout from Creating Keepsakes Feb 2010 issue, artist Andrea Friebus...I have quite a few of the same papers in different colors and wanted to use them all.  I really liked how it turned out.  Thanks Andrea!  Of course,  I tweaked it a little bit.
