Challenges 9 & 10

Challenge 9 was definitely a challenge. We were instructed to show at least 2 generations in a photo, use lace, a flower, something metal and ephemera (something old). Shanners used a couple of family pics from her sister's wedding, and Miss Chris used a sweet pic of Grandma reading to her 2 grand kids.


Challenge 10 was to be done by only one of us, but the person doing the LO was supposed to interview the other team member. Miss Chris interviewed me and did an awesome LO with a pic. from the day we met and went the The Cheesecake Factory. I love the soft colors and many textures and layers. Thanks, Miss Chris! :)
We got our instructions for challenge 11 yesterday. I think this will be a good one.

Challenge 8 down, challenge 9 - here we come!

Challenge 8 was a fun one. Not too hard, and we had a lot of freedom to do whatever we wanted, with a few minor requirements. We were supposed to do a scraplift of someone else's work, and we had to include a star of some sort and the word "dream". So, here's Miss Chris's submission.

On to challenge 9 which requires some heritage stuff and at least 2 generations in photos. Here we go!

Challenge 7

This one was a little bit difficult. We had to use everything in a kit from Sunshine Studio Scraps. I think that besides both of us inwardly rebelling against being told what to use - some of the items were just hard to use! I'm actually pretty impressed with what we both came up with. Miss Chris recolored hers, and did an adorable LO of her son.
hereShanners recognized some of the colors from some Disney pictures, and made a LO of her daughter in Minnie's House.

Challenge 5

Neither one of us quite knew what to do for this one.  We had to use 3 frames, but no pics.  Hmmmm.....interesting.  So here's what we came up with.  Miss Chris' empty frames represented milestones that her father missed - pictures that don't exist.Shanners made a LO describing herself.  Things "I Love, I Like, and I'd Like"

Challenge 7 is up at Sunshine Studio Scraps.  Back to work!

Challenge 6

Here's my LO for challenge 6.  I had to scraplift one of Miss Chris' LOs and turn it.  

Here's Miss Chris' original:

The 3rd and 4th challenges

We've been busy!  Miss Chris and I finished our 3rd challenges earlier in the week.  We had to redo one of our first LOs.  Here's Shanners' original:

Movin' on to Challenge #5! :)

Challenge #2

It was almost a race to the finish.  With just a couple hours left on the clock, we got our 2nd challenge LO posted.  This one was a team effort.  I supplied the photos, title and journaling, and Miss Chris did all the hard work and put it all together.  Thanks Miss Chris, for making such a nice page for us!  I love it.  Here's Cabin Fever.

Miss Chris and I have both completed our layouts for the 1st challenge, and have started working on the 2nd challenge - which is quite a challenge!  We have to collaborate on ONE layout between the two of us, and follow the requirements for a certain number of pics, elements, papers, fonts, etc.  I can't wait to see the finished product!  For now, here are our LOs for challenge #1:

I used a daily download kit from The Scrapping Garden called "One More Time".  I believe it was their April 2008 kit.  The font I used is Chalkboard.  Here's Preschool Pals:

Miss Chris did a fantastic LO of her son, Even Superheroes Pout!

On to challenge 2, which is due tomorrow, and we get to see what challenge 3 is!
