Crop Addict

Four on the Fourth Challenge for July 25th - August 1st

Because of my husband's work schedule, we don't always get to celebrate the holidays in traditional ways.  I found these photos from July 4th, 2002. 

Your challenge this week is to create a three color (red, white, and blue), four photo layout using photos from July 4th. BONUS: bonus points if all clothing is red, white, and blue only.

Here's my example Visiting Daddy at the Fire Station (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1448)

Upload your newly created layout into the July 25th - Aug 1st Weekly Challenge Gallery (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1448) and post a link to your upload in the forum by midnight PST on Aug 1st.

 

An Ordinary Day Challenge for July 18th - July 25th

Lately I've been scrapping old photos that have been sitting in photo boxes for years.  I'm realizing how many ordinary photos I took when my boys were little - just regular, everyday shots.  

Your challenge this week is to create a three photo layout using photos from summer.  Your photos can be any year but must represent a typical summer for you. Whether it's a day at the beach, lake, camping, cruise, vacation, or just hanging out at home. Whatever photos represent an ordinary summer day.

Here's my example June Gloom (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1447)

Upload your newly created layout into the July 18th - July 25th Weekly Challenge Gallery (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1447) and post a link to your upload in the forum (http://www.cropaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8642) by midnight PST on July 25th.

Bare Minimum Challenge for July 11th - July 18th

Life can get crazy, whether we just don't have the time to scrapbook or we get so caught up in creating the perfect page, one worthy of being published, that sometimes we forget what scrapbooking is all about: creating and getting our photos and thoughts on paper.  

Your challenge this week is to create a two photo layout using the least amount of scrapbook supplies, the bare minimum.

Here's my example Easy Rider (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1446)

Upload your newly created layout into the July 11th - July 18th Weekly Challenge Gallery (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1446) and post a link to your upload in the forum (http://www.cropaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9503) by midnight PST on July 18th.

What Summer Means To Me Weekly Challenge for July 4th - July 11th

 

Sleeping in, relaxing, days at the beach, spending time with family.  Ah, the joys of summer. :)  

Your challenge this week is to create a one photo layout that epitomizes what summer means to you. 

Here's my example Life is Good (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1445)

Upload your newly created layout into the July 4th - July 11th Weekly Challenge Gallery (http://www.cropaddict.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=1445) and post a link to your upload in the forum (http://www.cropaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9472) by midnight PST on July 11th.

Weekly Challenge 6/28-7/2 and Totally Technique

I am so excited!!!! For my last challenge at Crop Addict as the Featured Designer of the month, I contacted Jaime Warren...my Scrap Idol...to ask her if it was OK to use the layout below to scraplift. Her layouts always inspire me with all the extra little goodies she adds and looks so effortless.   And I just love the photos she takes of her kids.  Maybe someday I will be able to do something close to what she does!!! She quickly emailed me back and told me that she would LOVE for us to use it!

So, I got to work on mine! Hoping that I would come close to creating something as wonderful as she did! With everything going on in my life right now I decided to create a page of me...which I never do!
