Just Another Scrapping Weekend.

I sure am enjoying all my time that I have to scrap. It gives me time to relax and reflect on life.

I found out this weekend that I was accepted by Amanda Dykan (Purple Paper Flowers) to be on her CT. I am so excited. I have some other news...but can't say it yet as it hasn't been announced.

I have been busy this weekend and I will start with the layout that I did using one of Amanda Dykan's kits called February Song.

The last two pages that I did this weekend were for my CT position with Triplett Designs and to play in several of the challenges that were posted at K-JOI for the month of March. I used one of her newest kits, Decades Ago, to do both layouts.

You have to stay on your toes to keep up. Well, I made through round 3 and then got booted. But, it was fun and that IS what scrapping is all about for me!
Here are the 3 layouts I did for the contest.
