So I am still going strong with my "do one scrapbook challenge a week in June" plan :) This week's challenge came from the Crate paper blog seen on this post.
Emily created a sketch and I decided to give it a try.
and came up with this layout. I changed it up quite a bit for my needs though. This is a layout I've been doing for a while. And I used some older photos from last June. So Erin is quite a bit bigger now with longer hair, but just as curly ;)
Here is the actual sketch. I turned it on it's side and basically turned the long strip into a photo block. Still attaching my title to it and using cut-out's from a great patterned paper for my visual triangle. Really glad I took this challenge :) The challenge is still open until June 26th if you want to play along. And if you want, you can post a link of your layout to the comment section in that blog post.
Also, the design team call is still on at Scrapgal.
That is also going on until June 26th. We've had quite an influx of new scrappers at the boards which is fun to see. And I'm looking forward to seeing who will be joining us on the team!
As for scrapbook challenges, I am going to try to do one more this week! Just need to find the right one :)
