This is my layout and coordinating sketch from the February Kit at Treasured Scrapbooking:





My challenge for the month at Treasured Scrapbooking is to use a sepia toned photo in your layout. The kit just begged for a sepia photo, I love how the papers and embellies in the kit really bring out the best in the sepia photo. This is my layout:


Cant wait to see yours!!

Playing at the Resolutions Crop at Treasured Scrapbooking!

Today is day 3 of the Crop at Treasured Scrapbooking, featuring New Year's Resolutions!!!

My challenge is called "GO GREEN" and is a challenge to use a recycled item in your layout/card or altered project. I used the packaging from the Prima flowers I got in my add on January kit from Treasured Scrapbooking, and I used the January kit also for my layout:



and so far I have done one other challenge, "Quality Time" which Elizabeth issued. You are to scrap what Quality Time is for you. I chose Daughter time!!! And I was so excited to see that Basic Grey offers five of their paper lines and all the embellishments in........DIGITAL!!!! So that is what I used to create this layout:



Arent they cute? Love them dearly!! Proud mama here ;)

Would LOVE to see you over at Treasured SCrapbooking for this crop....and who knows you might just love it there and stick around for a while...I would love it if you did!!

Treasured Scrapbooking

Treasured Scrapbooking is my home online message board, I arrived here about 2 1/2 years ago for the annual Treasured Hunt contest and it quickly sucked me in and has yet to spit me out. I did a year on the design team and then took over the Design Team Coordinator position and I am now entering my second term doing that. I love it! Earlier this month our fearless leader Leslie decided to sell the site and my good friend Erin bought it. I have been asked to stay on as DT Coordinator, WOO HOO, and this morning Erin announced a new DT which will begin in January:
The New DT:

Julie Walton- DT Coordinator Extraordinaire
Eva Dobilas- Card Designer

Ginger Graham
Morag Cutts
Elizabeth Carney
Jenni Smith
Lisa Woodhart
Pauline Dirrig (Polinka)

and Jennifer French has agreed to be our January Guest Designer!

Some VERY talented ladies here, cant wait to see what they create, I've had a look at their blogs and I can say I AM INSPIRED!!

December will be Erin's kits debut. She has chosen to keep with Leslies format and produce 2 kits for December only. In January she will create one kit and have add ons!!! I have worked with one of the kits for December and I can tell you....its almost gone!!! Here are a few sneaks of the work I have done so far:



I will be back around the 1st to post my reveals for Treasured Scrapbooking!!

Be back in a few days to post some Rusty Pickle goodness :)
