Some of my latest projects!

As a lot of my scrapping friends know, I am a subscriber to the Scraptastic kit club. Last weekend they celebrated their 4th birthday and put on some great challenges.

Here's a couple of the layouts I completed for the challenges on their boards to celebrate!

I completed the Bingo challenge by Mercy tiara for this layout. I used the Scraptastic Everybody Talks kit from September 2013 for most of my supplies here.  I used lyrics from Christina Aguilara's Reflection as my title. I think they really represent this picture of me at an extremely awkward 9 year old.

I also completed the challenge to use a song title from the Top 100 of 2010 as a layout title. I chose The House That Built Me by Miranda Lambert for this layout about my childhood home.  This layout used the Daylight kit from May 2014 by Scraptastic.

Finally, I completed the color challenge which was to use shades of mint, pink, and gold.  This layout also used the Everybody Talks kit from September 2013 and a picture from a recent (awesome) wedding we went to.

A new venture

I've been encouraged by so many friends from the online scrapping community to pursue new things in the scrapping world.

So...here it goes for one step! set up a blog! I already post most of my layouts to Facebook groups - NicoleJones911 group and the Scraptastic Subscriber group as well as a small message board I am active in.

So why not have them on a blog also!

Scrapbooking has become such a huge part of my life over the past few years and the scrapping community is wonderful. I have made amazing friends from all over the world and I am so grateful to be part of such a great community!

Here's a layout to share as part of my 1st blog post! I used the Scraptastic Home kit from November to complete this layout of my favorite subjects...Ginger and Roscoe!
