To "Dye" for Challenge...

 April is my month to host the challenge at "Kitchen Keepsakes" and so with  Easter just around the corner I thought  it would be fun to do a challenge  with an Easter theme, but with a little twist. When I think of Easter traditions, the first thing that comes to mind is coloring eggs..I thought why not do a challenge using dyes.

Your favorite inks, mists, paints etc…

Use your creativity to make a great Easter-themed Recipe page using one or more of the above ingredients. Grab a cup  and join us in the Kitchen for this months challenge. Janet has also posted a very cool sketch for y'all to try as well.

Here is my example using Alcohol inks and Microscope slides:

Heaven Sent....

I saw this sketch from Creative Scrappers that sisters Jennifer & Susan used in their "Sister's Challenge" and I knew I wanted to use it as well. I decided to opt out of the normal baby blue colors you usually see and go for the more softer look. It was another layout outside of my usual scrapping style, but I am pleased with the way it turned out.

I used the following supplies:
Bazzill Basics paper
Recollections Paper
Colorbok Paper
Heidi Grace Chipboard letters
Cricut Cart- Plantin Schoolbook
Martha Stewart Punch
Fancy Pants - Buttons

Happy Crafting!

Little Robin Redbreast

Here is another layout I did for the "Spring Crop" over at Citrus Tree Studio. The challenge was to use the colors RUST or RED, Robin Egg Blue, & Brown. We also had to use at least one feather on our layout.  I took  this picture when we were in Ohio visiting JC's mom, it was perfect for the challenge!

Thanks for looking!

I played along in a "Spring Crop" this weekend over at Citrus Tree Studio ...I really didn't get a lot accomplished. I spent to long working on this LO. It was worth it. I love how it turned out.

Happy Crafting!

Apple Pie Bites

This is a LO I did for a "Tag Challenge" over at Kitchen Keepsakes. We started with Suzanne's LO and the next person in line had 3 days to make a layout resembling hers and then she sent that layout out and it went down the line until everyone who signed up to play had a turn. It was amazing to see how the layouts chnaged. 

This is one I did just for fun..no challenges.

Thanks for stopping by!
