New Layouts and Time Capsule Mini-Album

Last week I shared some layouts that I had made for National Scrapbooking Day. I've continued to scrap this week for a couple of challenges (contests) and so I wanted to share.

This layout is for a Bling Challenge. The idea was to make the page sparkily. I was excited about this challenge because this is soooo up my alley (and the prize is $200 giftcard to Tiffany's--not that it will get you much, but still! It's Tiffany's!). This is one of my most favorite layouts ever. It really helps that it has one my most favorite subject matters--my family--more specifically my baby sister, Erwin, Erin and her new hubby, Jim. ;) (I LOVE YOU!)

This other new layout is for a Pink Challenge. Obviously. The picture is of the roses that were used in our bouquets when I was a bridesmaid for my dear friend, Lisa. The roses were gorgeously deep pink. I loved them. And the picture was perfect for a pink layout.

The next project I did was also for a challenge. It was a Time Machine Themed Mini-Album and so I made a Time Capsule documenting some of my favorite things for the first part of this year. It was pretty fun to put together. Conveniently I already had a mini-album kit waiting to be used so I didn't have to worry too much about gathering supplies. In addition to what the kit had (the browns/orange/yellows) I added some extras that I cut out from the packaging from another paper kit that I LOVE called "Note To Self" from Echo Park.

I had a fun time putting together this little book. I think it turned out pretty cute. :) Thanks for looking!!
