Gettin' Crabby in Cape Cod - 2013

One of the Crop & Create challenges using a SSZ kit. This was based on a sketch. I actually took a two-page sketch and made it into one page.

Crop & Create - NavCan

I just attended Crop & Create in Cornwall. This is a scrappy weekend put on by "Scrapbooks and Cards Today" magazine.  WHAT A FANTASTIC EVENT! 

I did the four challenges (the list was provided a few days before), 7 make-and-takes, one class (a three layout class but these didn't get finished.....yet), plus two layouts on my own. 

One of my challenges actually WON A PRIZE!  WOOHOO! 

CTMH WOTG - Sarita

I did three 2-page layouts with the Close to my Heart Sarita Workshop on the Go in September.  Here they are:

I Love Dolls - 1950s

Last challenge (12) for BPC Stashbusters Anonymous Class to use a kit in your stash.  I managed to complete ALL TWELVE CHALLENGES BEFORE THE CLASS FINISHED - WOOHOO!

Scrapshotz February 2013 kit made up of mostly Authentique – Renew line.  I added some washi tape (Studio G), a heart doily, some brads and the word “Gift” (Making Memories) and stuck pretty close to the sketch.  The clipart of the little girl holding the doll is from thegraphicsfairy.com

This is me in 1954 and 1958 holding my dollies.  I loved dolls then and I now collect dolls as an adult.

The Commerce Square was very close to our hotel, just across the street to the left.  On our last evening in Portugal we had a great dinner at an Indian Restaurant.
