Monthly Crafting Challenges

You asked, and I listened…the monthly crafting challenges are back!!  We’ll start January off easy with a mood board that I found over at Maja Design from back in 2016.

Use the board in any way that inspires you…perhaps it’s the quote, the colors, the word or anything else.   Create project based on the board and then head over to my facebook page and share it on the monthly pinned post.  At the end of the month a random participant will win a $10 off $20 coupon to the shop.

I can’t wait to see what you create!!!

1st Grade School Photo Masculine Scrapbook Layout

Hey scrappy friends!  Long time no layout.  Summer was incredibly crazy with swim team and two kiddos home full time, but with fall comes a new routine.  I’m afraid to say it, but I really hope to be at least semi regular with posting now that school is in session.

My first post back is for none other than the Southern Girls Design Team.  I have been on Team Lou for several years 2014 – 2015 and then from 2017 – to the present.  This go round we were challenged to use a tic tac toe board.  These usually end of up really hard for me to use because there’s always something on the board I LOATHE using.  This time I was able to use the right hand column very easily.

As my blog title indicated, this is our little man when he was in first grade.  I spent several days getting layouts done of all his school photos so that I could dispose of all the extras.  I do the main photo on the front traditional style and then just attach the class photo to the back since it’s always huge.

For this layout I used the very old My Minds Eye Remarkable collection. How old you may ask…well he was only two when the collection debuted.  If you can believe it you can still find a few pieces on amazon though.

Pretty Princess Scrapbook Layout

Hi guys!  Welcome back to a layout post here at The Paper Addict.  I’ve been scrapping a bit if you’ve been watching you my youtube channel, but I’m glad to be back blogging again too.  This pretty princess scrapbook layout was created for the newest challenge over at Southern Girls.

For this round my team used stripes on their projects.  I have used stripes in two different ones on this layout.  Can you find them both? One is fairly obvious and the other, in person, is much more subtle.

If you watched my first Crafty Maven Getaway Youtube Hop video this princess scrapbook layout is the accompanying page to that layout. The event was a pretty princess photo shoot our daughter was invited to for her friend Tessa’s birthday.

Thanks so much for sticking with me.  Until next time….Stay Crafty!
