Scraplift #24 Is Updated with Layouts!

Get it, tearing me up? The picture is in three pieces?? Ah, never mind - bad attempt at humor!

Anyways... I was browsing the gallery at Scrapbook Bytes and I saw this GORGEOUS layout. I was immediately drawn in by the tiled photo and then those tiny little heart accents. I had to know what the font was she used and who did such a great layout. I found out after reading it that it was Agnes (Chibikko) who did this wonderful layout. Then I found out that it was a scraplift of Gina Cabrera's Happy Birthday layout for Auntie Pea!! I guess I"m nothing if not consistent - I love Gina's work and I'm honored to be on her Guest Design Team for the next 2 months... :-)

Tthis layout just resonates with me. I know it has to do with its simplicity, with it's clean lines, but I think more than anything else - it's just totally different!!! It stands out in a crowd. Thank you Gina and Agnes, for challenging me, yet again, to be a more versatile scrapper - and I can't WAIT to try this tiling technique!!

Agnes says this about her layout: "I've been wanting to scrap this picture of Tokyo tower that I took in spring and this layout is perfect for me to use for the scraplift challenge at DDE also.

I saw Gina's layout here
Happy Birthday Shawn!

I used all Gina's elements:
paper - Happy Girl kit
inked edge - Twist of Lime
hearts - Beadazzle Hearts Snippet Essentials
corners - Felts Photo Corners Snippet Essentials

Check out Agnes' layout here at SBB and leave her some lovin' if you get a chance.

La Tour Eiffel?

Off to scrap!

Here are the lifts:

This one is my entry. I just ADORE this layout!!!!!! My mom and daughter had been growing a green bean teepee for most of the summer and the first bean was finally big enough to eat - and she hated it!! I used Ronna Penner's Nature's Beauty and photo corners from Mulberry Street.


Cielo offers this awesome rendition: Here's my scraplift. It seems perfect for the lift since it's a tower too! the essences of Malaysia, its richness in culture and its extraordinary vision for the future. The building is rooted in tradition and about Malaysia's aspiration and ambition" - The Architect (of Petronas)

This is such a clever take on this layout: Amy says, "I am so glad I found your site. It is just the inspiration I need for quick summer pages.

I loved the original layout here and just had to lift it and do the fun photo trick. I immediately thought of myself and how I often feel like I am in pieces going different directions but I NEVER scrap myself so this was hard for me. I almost didn't finish. But I am glad I did.

Buge offers this colorful alternative: BUGE: Poster: Majayjay Falls, Philippines. Just a couple of hours drive from the city. My friends and I went there on a weekday so we had the whole place all to ourselves.

This is Karen's beautiful and touching lift: She says, "This is my son back in 1994 with his grandfather, who has since had a stroke and lost his speech. They were so close when my son was little. I’m so grateful they spent so many tender moments together like this one. This picture was taken in Chile while we were there for a family wedding. We were on a little excursion and were just enjoying the beautiful countryside. "
