Challenge at Kitchen Keepsake

This was the challenge: Incorporate a list on your page!
You can use a numbered list, a bullet point list (using buttons/brads as the bullet points), a list of ingredients. Think outside the box! I can't wait to see the creative pages you come up with!

Here is my 2 pager I did for the challenge.

So much fun, I used a lot of rub ons, old stickers and embellishments I have had for a long time. The hardest part was trying to find out how old he was in each photo. Seems funny back when my kids were little I always thought I would remember their ages and now as I get older I really struggle, so if you aren't one who someone keeps track of ages, please do so now. :)

July 1 means some new challenges

Just posted some new challenges at Kitchen Keepsake. My recipe challenge for the month is to use yellow and black. My grandson made this Lemon bread while they were here and it is delicious. I used my Silhouette to cut out the lemons, bread and bread pan.

At the Beach

I did a challenge from Scrap Around The World. The colors of yellow, green and black just popped out at me so those are the colors I picked. I used Lemon Flower Stack by DCWV, some Stampin Up stickers, old buttons that I cut the backs off of and fussy cut the flowers. I hope you go over to Scrap Around the World and give the challenge a try.

New flower fillers

I saw an idea similar to this a year or two ago, I just added my own touch to the idea. Do you have any of those little seed beads around that you don't know what to do with? Here is an idea for you.

These are the only supplies you need:

You take your florist wire and wrap the florist tape around it. Cut the wire into whatever size of flowers you want. Put glue onto the wire and roll the glued wire in the beads. Set them aside to dry and if when dry you want or need to add more beads, put a little more glue on and roll in the beads again.

These are the finished flowers.

I also found the tiny beads are much harder to work with and required at least 2 different times of adding glue and beads and I didn't like the outcome as much.

Ride em Todd

Working on some older photos of my son and this one is from Christmas 1976. I used papers from Prima Nursery Tales, the stars are from Prima Bark Shapes, I used a spray called Baseboard by Plain Jane and the brown is one I made, Cowboy stickers by Karen Foster and the black pointed item (to look like a horses mane) was made from Casting Resin. I made other items using the Casting Resin and this was the overflow so I tried to make it look like the mane.

The sketch I used for this LO was Becky Fleck. You can find the sketch here at Back Porch Memories for their August Guest Designer Contest.

A little accident

My grandkids were here from GA and while riding the go-karts, Zac had an accident and will be sporting a new cast once he sees the Dr. in GA tomorrow.

June's card challenge

Doesn't seem possible it is June already. The new card sketch is up at Stick it Down. I changed the direction for my card but fell in love with the completed card. I hope you give this month's challenge a try.
