Plethora of pages!!

Last year Willow Traders hosted the Use a Kit Challenge. We could either use kits we bought from monthly clubs or make one up using your stash. Since I do not sub to other kit clubs, I usually just make my own. I received a prize from a fellow Willow who makes AMAZING homemade kits. In my Stash kit, I mixed some of the goodies she gave me with some other stuff. I just love throwing in more and more stuff. It's very eclectic, just the way I like it..LOL! I was always told I never matched my clothes. Why bother matching my scrapping stuff, too? LOL!

And here are the plethora of layouts I've created so far. I still have some more stuff from my eclectic kit. I plan on making some cards and such. I focused on scrapping pictures from last year's summer. Our niece and her family visited from LA for a few days. We managed to go to SF, Napa, and Santa Cruz. Not to mention swimming time at home, too!

Here is the cover page for the album. I'm also double dipping for The Scrapping Spot challenge #3, using circles. I used a bunch of buttons as a border along the bottom of the page.

This is just the way you would see it in the album. I'm anal like that..LOL. Heintje's sister also came up for the weekend when we went to SF.

And this layout was for The Scrapping Spot Stash Challenge #1, Evens. I used 2 pictures, 4 patterned papers, 6 ribbons, 8 buttons, 10 letters in my title. Fun page to do!!

I'm so excited to be scrapping again. I feel like I haven't scrapped in months, except for DT layouts!! Forget sleep man, it's time to get my scrap ON (like donkey kong)!! LOL.
Gotta go, it's midnight and it's time to scrap :)

I know the feeling of not scrapping for months except for DT assignments. It feels so good to do something for yourself, I bet.

Your LOs are very pretty. I especially love the button one, Summer Adventure.
