SOS Sept Remix and CSI #366

 

Some items in the home have a story


For the Remix Challenge from SOS, I followed a sketch that had several strips of patterned paper as a main element and the challenged asked for at least 5 different patterned papers. 

For the CSI Challenge For the case I used the yellow color from the scene. Clues: mixed media background (spray glitter, texture paste), sun, circles, fox, animal (fish, butterflies),plaid, text paper, decorative border with paper strip scraps.

SOS Scrap Challenge July ReMix/CSI Challenge Cold Case #362

 

I got to documenting some local day trips taken during 2020 and 2021.

For SOS Scrapbooking Remix Challenge, I followed a layout for inspiration-I started with the photo collage format and some borders along the top. I broke up the paper matting behind the photos into two strips instead of one. Kept the scalloped strip on the bottom and a paper strip on top. They also asked that a puffy sticker get used so I had a "Hello Weekend" banner and a "Here We Go" stickers. 

For the CSI Challenge, I liked the stripes on the tents and triangle tent shapes, a car, also tried to use some of the colors pinks, green and blue that were in the scene. 

SOS scrap challenge July Sketch Challenge- TV shows now-a-days

 

I based the layout off of this Sketch Challenge from SOS Scrap Our Stash . It required using the sketch as the inspiration which I followed pretty closely using the giant ribbon and a strip of paper going down the middle of the page. The challenge also asked that stars be used. 

The topic I chose was how TV has become central during the pandemic when it wasn't as big of an activity beforehand for me. But also how TV viewing has changed since being a child.

June 2021 SOS Sketch Challenge: Favorite band/musician

 

Participated in CSI's Sketch Challenge to make a layout using a sketch and another element-this month it was a wood veneer. I didn't have a real wood embellishment that fit my page theme, but I did use a die cut that had a wood-pattern frame on my right side of the layout. 

The left hand picture is one of the actual photos that will be in this layout, my other two are place holders as I have to ask my mom for some photos to show her enjoyment of Beatles music. 

What kinds of music or songs have been important/memorable in your life or your subject's life?

June 2021: CSI #358 & SOS Remix Scrapbook challenges Celebrating Travel/Hugging Loved ones!

 

I am using alternate photos until the ones I order come in but they are the perfect orientation for the four photos I want! 

After all the virtual meet ups or limited distanced lunches every few months during 2020, I am extremely grateful to get to have non-screen time with people during a vacation. 

For the CSI challenge-used the inspiration of gingham pattern, flowers, heart, label. Used the red, pink and mustard yellow from the color swatch. 

For the SOS Remix challenge, I used the design team member's layout to scraplift and the requirement called for polka dots.

I played along with May SOS Remix Challenge (take inspiration from a layout and use a specific type of product), this month was to use a travel sign. I also made this page using one of the CSI April Challenges which imitated the dusty colors, bunnies, fibers, window from a photograph given by the challenge. I added writing about things I am grateful for this month.

SOS Remix Challenge: April 2021

 

The SOS scraplift challenge this month asked us to take inspiration from a layout from another scrapbooker and also use butterfly embellishment. I used a few stickers and hand cut my own butterfly embellishment. I used the vertical lines and layering loo behind two photos. Also happy to use the tilde symbols from my silver glitter Thicker alpha stickers as part of the design.

Thanks for stopping by!
