Ah! Finally back! ...and challenge

Hello everyone!
Life has been busy around here the last few months. Had a full load in school and was almost falling behind at the end. Haha! It's funny now, but it wasn't too funny a few weeks ago!

And this last week, one of my dogs somehow cracked a tooth and had to get it removed! Poor baby had surgery yesterday, but he is such a trooper and he's almost back to normal! The price tag on that surgery was not funny either!

I have so many things to put together for a giveaway...I have to get that set up so we can try to get it done before the new year. I'll be back with more on that later...for  now I have a challenge to share.

I love the challenges over at DCWV and The Paper Variety! So I'm submitting this one for both ;)

This is for DCWV's December stack-a-holic challenge and the Paper Variety's Anything Goes! challenge:

 

I used the Heirloom and World Traveler stacks from DCWV. Maya Road ribbon, pin and chipboard heart with cream metallic mist. The title is a cut out from the World Traveler stack. 

This is our summer trip to the Mediterranean and Italy.We got that gelato on the road just  below the Spanish Steps. Delicious! Totally behind on all my scrapping. But that's ok, I've never been 'caught up' so I wouldn't know what I'm missing...lol. 

Be back soon :)

    Take care

    Hey girl,

    Just stopped by to say hi and see your DCWV layout. I just posted mine not 10 min ago! LOL. Love love love your page. Fabulous colors and what cool pictures!! How fun :)

    I didn't get any deals after Christmas. I'm a horrible shopper. I can't stand crowds or waiting in line so I order pretty much everything online. Did you get any fun bargains?

I'm so excited about this blog hop! I've loved Faber-Castel products for a long time and it was so much fun to combine them with my favorite DCWV textures. There’s some great prizes too- Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft and DCWV will be giving away $75 in product at the end of the hop.  To win, follow the list below and leave a comment .  The hop will end at 5PM EST on Friday, March 28 th .  The winner will be announced on Monday, March 31 st on each of the company’s blogs.    I really wanted a special page for these pictures. They give me a very HAPPY feeling  and I love the sun rays coming through the trees. I wanted to mimic that in the background paper. I thought the woven craft cardstock was a great background because its a little less stark than white for these pictures.   I wanted the journaling to be more private so I made it a pull tab behind this cut out tag from the Bohemian Sunrise stack.    To make the background I used a DCW

Christmas with Clear Scraps & DCWV

Welcome to Day 2 of the DCWV and Clear Scraps blog hop! You should have come from Britt's blog: http://pinkpapercrowns.blogspot.com Thanks for making it this far!  On to the project... I might have a LO or 2 about Christmas....Why? I just never get around to making more of them! The Holidays are usually too crazy and then I get into doing LOs of just ever day stuff or travel pics... and the holidays just get forgotten.  This year, I'm ready! I'll have the album pre-made, I just have to stick on the pictures and add some journaling! I used this 8x8 tabbed acrylic album from Clearscraps to create a Christmas mini that is ready to go.  The papers are Christmas Memories with a little bit of the Christmas and winter Diecut stack, the Christmas basics 6x6 & the Burlap stack. I love clear albums because I like to see the layers through the clear pages.    I folded the 12x12 papers in half and cut them to create pockets for journaling a
