Let's Scrap - Random Layout

Well, this was supposed to be for the BINGO challenge hosted by Susanna at Let's Scrap.  My boo boo that I didn't use the sketch 3-3-10 as prerequisite. The above I had used 5-1-14, so I had the layout re-done. Anyway, I chose 2 pictures, stamping, Numbers and no patterned paper. I had used a doodle from #2 during our vacation back in Penang and a family photo taken 2 years ago. Also for this challenge I had incorporated Tutorial #2 to create own tape with stamping over Nexcare micropore tape, as part of the requirement of the challenge. Come play along and have fun at Let's Scrap!

Let's Scrap DT Challenge #192 (8-22-14)

Here's my take for the BINGO challenge hosted by Susanna at Let's Scrap.  One of the prerequisite is to use sketch # 3-3-10. I chose the vertical column of 2 pictures, stamping, Numbers and no patterned paper. This is a photo of the boys years ago, reading and messing up the books at the same time. This is definitely not the worst scene but nonetheless, love that toothy smile from #1. Also for this challenge I had incorporated Tutorial #4 and Tutorial #57 incorporate gesso to create a lighter tone in the image and free hand doodling around the lighten gesso area. You only need to have ONE tutorial, not two! Come play along and have fun at Let's Scrap!

Let's Scrap - DT Challenge191

Here's my take on DT Challenge 191 at Let's Scrap. Mindi had posted this challenge 2 weeks ago, I hadn't really thought how to do it until today. So, after I fixed a blunder yesterday and my hunch tells me I GOT TO DO THIS today before the closure. I GOT TO create a layout for this challenge. And so today, after my short nap while putting the kids to bed, I crawled out of bed and started work to put this together. I certainly had fun.. now I pray that the papers/tapes and photos would stay in tact by the time the gesso dries up!
