Digi-SL #7 - CHALLENGE Updated with layouts!!!!

Dreamy Eyes

Whew!!! You guys have been working HARD!! I am so happy to see so many of you scrapping along with me!!! Remember you can keep doing any of the layouts you want - I will be uploading constantly - so there's no deadline to any scrap!!

I was cruising the gallery and saw this one and I just about gasped. The colors and the picture just drew me in like a magnet. This is a paper scrap - so we have a little bit of a challenge here: the dimensional aspects, the textures and the inked edges. I think we're up for this girls - let's go!!!! :-)


This one is my entry. Oh boy was this tough for me. I actually took two days to make this but I am proud of it. I think it works!!! I used Gina Cabrera's Twist of Lime Kit for nearly everything except the stitching, which is Ronna Penner and alphabet by Ronna in her Old World Charm Kit. I also used the tag from Gina's Adore Kit and Flowers from her Exhuberant Fun Kit.









I used Dani Mogstand's Vintage Valentine kit. The frame is from an edges pak at digital scrapbook place. Font is blackjack.
I really like Michelle's take on this - the buttons are wonderful and it looks to me like she reduced the backgrounds for the tiiles and they match so perfectly. Darn - another kit I think I have to buy!!!!









Paper is Gina Miller, Vintage Poppy and flowers are Gina's Beaded Flowers! - Tracy Fox. Tracy, you did it. You sold me on this kit. I was wavering and thought I didn't need to spend any more money, but then I saw this layout. It must be mine!!!! I love the picture choice and the way the papers are so bold yet they don't take over the wonderful picture.








CREDITS: Papers: Ali Folendore's "Delish", Alphas & flowers: Ali F., Stick pin: Holly McCaig, Frayed Bow: Michelle Coleman, Font: AL Sandra (and my little dots doodled on there). Gina, this is one GORGEOUS picture. I hope you have this framed on your wall because it just SCREAMS true love. it's an awesome page and you picked an absolutely perfect picture. I would love to know what filter you use for sepia - I ca never seem to get that dark color in mine -it always looks orange-y.








Kim's Love Much Kit at CG Essentials - Becky's take on this layout just really makes me smile!! The picture is perfect - and the playfulness of the kit makes it even more joyful! I reall like the flowers she chose and the hearts on the tiles.





Janna used Jen Wilson's Snowfairy Papers and Elements. Stitching- Shabby Princess Tropical Christmas, Circle Letters- Ronnie McCray. Oh my Janna - you know how to use Jen Wilson's kits!! I just got that CD and am trying to figure out how I'm going to use them!!!! I love the look on your daughter's face and the beads are great!!!!!










This one is from "Scrapper" over at SBB. I am sorry I don't know her name - but boy is this beautiful!!! All of the papers and te alpha used are from Doris Castle's Naturally Sweet kit. I inked the edges using an Atomic Cupcake action. The ribbon with the heart is from Doris' Earthen Florals kit and the flowers and the little tag are from her Memories kit. Lastly, the stitching is from Mo Jackson's Stitches 1 and the photo edge is from Blair's Borders




This is Brianna's Entry. What an infectious smile this lady has!! LOVE the painted wood alpha. Can you tell I'm addicted to alphas lately?? Credits: Everything is Atomic Cupcake (including new tearing action) - fonts are CK Allison (journaling) and Nueva (painted wood alpha).



This layout is by Ruby Tuesday. I LOVE the way it's just so warm and cozy and matches so well with the picture! Credits: Everything is from Jen Wilson's Holiday Excellence kit except chipboard letters by Meredith Fenwick.
