Football Online Crop at the Sisterhood

Just reminding you of an online crop at the Sisterhood of Scrap. We're having fun with FOOTBALL, even though there are many of us who can't stand the game, and know very little about it! LOL Myself included :-)

Here are some of the challenges posted:

RUNNING BACK --  I want to see some type of "running" stitch on your layout. Can be real or faux

GRIDIRON -- For this challenge it is only fitting to use a "grid" of some sort on your playing field!

PIGSKIN -- For this challenge, I want to see a layout using Kraft/brown cardstock as your background paper PLUS you must show some sort of lacing technique.

 
TACKLE -- Let's see some "piling on" with this challenge. Layer your paper, or layer embellishments.

Check the forum for more challenges, games, and see the awesome prizes that are up for grabs! You have until midnight, Oct. 2nd to upload your projects.

What an Accomplishment!

So glad you have stopped by for the Scrapbook Heaven "Dads and Grads" Blog Hop & Crop. If you have no idea what I am talking about, check out the details HERE!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

For me, graduation was all about achievement and accomplishing your goals as a student. I enjoyed learning and school wasn't too difficult for me. Still, it was a big achievement to graduate with honors.

My oldest son recently finished his 12th year of home education. He is so glad to be finished :-) Schoolwork was not fun for him, but most of the time he did what he was instructed, without too much complaining. LOL! Graduating was a HUGE accomplishment! I can't wait to see what avenue he will take this coming fall -- maybe MORE education?!??

So, on to my challenge for this blog hop & crop. I decided to share a sketch with you, with a little stipulation -- your layout must show some sort of accomplishment or achievement.

Speaking of my oldest son , this layout is showing one of his accomplishments :-)

~~~~~~~~~~~

Now it’s your turn! Create a project using this sketch and upload it to the Scrapbook Heaven Gallery, (or some other online gallery) by June 20th. Post a link to your project in the comments section here as well. One lucky random winner will be selected to receive a ribbon/flower prize from Scrapbook Heaven!

Be sure to return to the Scrapbook Heaven Blog tomorrow to see the next stop in our HOP!

Challenge #6 Sisterhood of Scrap "Sock Hop"

What is a Sock Hop?? It's a dance that became popular during the 1950's. These dances were often in school gyms and to keep from marking up the floors, dancers would remove their shoes and dance in their socks. Socks also made it easier for dancers to twist and slide!

My challenge for today has to do with the color white -- the color of socks :-) CREATE a layout using all white! Your photo(s) can be color or black/white.

Here's a layout I created a few weeks ago using all white papers and embellishments. I thought it would be tough but it turned out to be one of my favorite layouts.
(Thanks to a DT member on Scrap My Memories for the idea for this challenge)

Here's the prize you're playing for today -- a Crate Paper "Mia" Collection!

Link your layout from your blog or gallery in the comments for everyone to see!!! All challenges are due by April 30th for the Sisterhood of Scrap "Sock Hop".

Sweeter than apple pie

This is my layout for Candace's "Rock Around the Clock" challenge. When I listened to the song "Lollipop, Lollipop", I knew I had the perfect pictures for a layout! I even used "Lollipop Shoppe" papers, by Basic Grey :-)

A birthday!!!

Sisterhood of Scrap is TWO years old, and we are so excited! Join us April 19th-26th as we have a week long online crop -- we're rockin' around the clock!

more layouts for Deanne's challenges

For Deanne's 5th Challenge. We were to use the same title as a previous layout. I have one of my two older boys using the same title. I'll try to find it -- I think it's on my external drive.

Her 4th challenge was to use polka-dot paper.
