July Scrap Swap

[Alishaw]

So, is anyone up for a scrap swap this month? We have such fun new talent to add to our already amazing group, I think it would be fun!!

If you want to play, post your photos here by July 17th. You will scrap the photos of the last person to post photos above you. Clear as mud?! :yep: You can swap by email the high res ones.

Be sure to put:
Size you want your page
Dates
Title
Journaling

When completed, post your layout and email them the high res layout as a flattened file. Please also give credits for the page you do. Deadline is July 31 to have the page finished.

ANYONE & EVERYONE CAN PLAY! THE MORE THE BETTER!

Can't wait to see your photos and layouts!!

[Kelli West]

Alisha, you are always so good to start these!! Thank you!

[Alishaw]

Nobody wants to swap???

[lanz]

I want to I just haven't figured out which pictures to post? Anyone else going to do it?

[Jamie Hamblin]

I'm in....

12x12

Journaling and title is up to you! Find a cute quote or something. :)

[mmecharp]

Sounds great. Here's my pics. I prefer 12x12. You can use as few or as many pics as you want. The boy is my son Cory, age 7, the girl is my granddaughter Kenzy, age 2. They are playing in my backyard. Journal as you see fit. Pics were taken in June of this year.

okay unfortunately it's not letting me upload my photos. i'll resize and try again.

[mmecharp]

Hopefully this is the rest of them. Again as many or as few as you want.

[crystalclark87]

Very cute photos ladies! I love the sprinkler ones! That is a great idea to play in them with the umbrella!

[mmecharp]

Here's the finished product. Hope you like it.
And now what I used:
From the Playground Collection Megan's Swingset BlackFlower paper
Playground Collection Riley's Sandbox Whitish paper
Playground Collection Zoe's Merrygoround Gel Embellies and Stitched Border
2 Peas in a bucket Veronica Ponce My Guy Overlay
2 Peas in a bucket Kate Teague Proud to be Digi circle journal

[digimad]

Way cute Mmecharp!

[Kelli West]

Jamie will love it Michelle!! I love the quote you used!!

[LucyLu]

Michelle Love the layout and quotes...

[mmecharp]

Thanks! I totally cheated and replaced Jamie's pic with a pic of my own son for myself! I hope the journaling is ok, it's what I would have used for my own son as well.

[Jenny McDonald]

WOW! That is awesome! I'm going to steal that if thats okay!

[chryslergreen]

I'll play! So I'll scrap Michelle's photos... Michelle, I'll pm you my email address and you can send me the high res photos. Send them all!

Here are mine. I decided I wanted a page of my son on the swings at different ages. I think I'd just like the pictures to speak for themselves, so maybe just a big title that reads "Swing" and then just the dates of each of the photos. In order, they are:
June 2005
March 2006
April 2007
June 2008
You could also put my son's name on there somewhere, it's Zachary.
Also, feel free to do whatever cropping you want with these.

[Alishaw]

Such cute photos Lynnette!

I added a few more days to post, so find your photos girlies!!

[digimad]

I've never done this before, but I'll try it this time. These photos are from Memorial Day. Journaling:
This Memorial Day was rainy and cold and felt unusual without Mom and Dad there to lead the way. But we still visited all the cemeteries. Bruce even made a special floral arrangement for Margaret's grave (just as Mom would have). And we enjoyed seeing all the Aunts, Uncles, and cousins. Afterwards we had a very fun BBQ at Mom and Dad's house.

Pictures are of me, Anna, and Ben.
I do 12X12.
I really don't care what you do in the way of embellishing and feel free to use any or all the pictures.

[mmecharp]

Steal away Jenny!! Thanks Lynette for taking on my photos. I'm emailing them right now!

[supermombritt]

Jamie will love that page.

[Jamie Hamblin]

I do I do! WOW your so fast Michelle! It's so cute, where do you think of these cute pages? I'm so excited that here is a hug VIA forum.... XXXXXXXXXXXX

[Alishaw]

[digimad]

I'm glad you like it! I thought it came out pretty good. When i got the idea for it I thought it was going to work, that's why I bugged you for the pictures. I couldn't wait to finish it. If you will PM your email address I will send you the high res version.

[bookiegirl]

:cheer::cheer:good job:santa::jennylaugh::angel:

[lanz]

Am I too late to play? I do my LO 12x12 Journaling could be: "I loved it when I was able to catch you smiling at Grandpa Lucas and him smiling back at you, I love to see you smile"

It could be something along those lines, or you can change it, whatever you want to do. PM me and I will see you the high res. picture. Whose do I do?

[lanz]

Do I do Alishaw's?

[Amaris]

Lanz,

I will take on your Picture.

I will get a picture or 2 up in a little while for the challenge.

Donna

[Amaris]

That is if noone else is doing it.

Donna

[lanz]

Yeh, I'm kind of nervous because everyone is so good.

[Amaris]

I totally understand that is how i feel but i figured why not.

Donna

[Amaris]

Here is my pictures

The one is of my Angel walking as she was a celebrity reader at school
and the other one was her and one of her friends who was also a celebrity reader at school which meant they read 25 books or more during the school year.

She was Hannah Montanah

Donna

[Jamie Hamblin]

So I'm doing Amaris... :)

I need your details sweets! :)

[RobRob]

I am so bummed I missed this! I just saw it today! If someone still wants to do it with me let me know! I can still be done my the 31st!

[RobRob]

Maybe I can trade somebody straight across? Someone play with me!

[Jamie Hamblin]

I haven't started Amaris yet so you could still do hers... just post your pictures asap. :)

[Amaris]

Lana,

I really hope you like the page I made for you. I have the full jpg file as well as the psd file if you want them I will send them.

My daughter thought it was neat looking as I hope everyone else likes it.

Donna

[Alishaw]

RobRob post your photos & Jamie can do them!!

[RobRob]

Yay! I still get to play! Thanks Jamie!

So this was just totally silly I came downstairs and, apparently, I do not feed my children enough and they are STARVING!! Lol They had totally destroyed a loaf of bread! So although this is funny and I want to remember it I just have no scrapping inspiration for the pics right now. Good lucj and thanks again Jamie! I'll PM the details.


Amaris so I am doing yours will you PM me what you want? Size, title, stuff like that? Thanks!

[lanz]

Thanks Amaris, I love it! Thank you. You are a lot quicker than I am at getting it done.

[chryslergreen]

Here ya go Michelle! I just did a big title, I figured if you wanted to add some journaling there is space at the bottom. I hope you like it! Really, if you want anything changed just let me know!

[digimad]

Cute Lynnette! I love the colors.

[Alishaw]

Cute pages girls! I better get to work on mine!

[mmecharp]

I wouldn't change a thing! It's absolutely perfect! My daughter loved it too (that's her lil girl in the pic with my son)!!

[Jamie Hamblin]

Do i gotta share mine?...

Fell free to redo EVERYTHING>>>> RobRob! I didn't think that 8.5 x 11 would be a challenge for me, but it was! WOW... you need to be more creative in my opinion. BTW it's a two page spread. :)

[lanz]

Jamie, I think you did a great job, you need to share you layouts more often.

[Jamie Hamblin]

Jamie, I think you did a great job, you need to share you layouts more often.

I know... did you notice that i don't have a gallery? I'm bad!

[RobRob]

Jamie! I love it! I am so happy you did a two page spread that is how my whole book is! Thank you thank you!! I really like it alot. It makes me laugh and conveys the pictures just how I wanted to! Nice job! Thanks for leaving the journaling spot for my story too! Yay! Thank you!

[Jamie Hamblin]

phew... I was really stressing about this LO.

[Kelli West]

Jamie you really should not worry. You are a creative person. Anything you do always looks great!!

[RobRob]

phew... I was really stressing about this LO.

Just wondering...why were you so stressed? Is it the whole 8.5x11 thing? Because you are great! Was it the pictures? They were hard for me! It looks awesome! You are awesome! Thank you again!

[RobRob]

WOW Lynette! That is a great page!! You did a SUPER good job! I love those pictures. That is so fun.

OK Amaris here is yours! Hope you like it! Let me know if you have that one more picture you want me to add!

Donna

Very nice Robin! This scrap swap has been fun. I'm glad I decided to do it. I know Alisha will come up with something awesome for me.

[Alishaw]

[RobRob]

Robin that page looks great!! good job

[digimad]

HOLY COW!!! Talk about pressure!!! (sweating, sweating, re-doing layout, sweating)

LOL! I only meant that everything you do is awesome-no pressure. Seriously, I've never seen a lo you did that I didn't love.:)

[Jamie Hamblin]

I donno... it was just that i had no creative juices flowwing this time...


Cute page RobRob! WOWza

[chryslergreen]

Robin I love your page too! I really like how you did the three flowers with the little squares underneath!

[lanz]

Okay, Alishaw here is your page. I hope you like it. It's pretty simple so if there is anything you would like to change let me know. All the papers and elements were from the playground CD. PM me with you e-mail address and I will send you the full res. one.

[supermombritt]

Cute page Lana.

[RobRob]

Very cute!

[chryslergreen]

Great job Lana! I really love the colors!

[Jamie Hamblin]

Cute Lana!

[Kelli West]

Lana that looks great!! I like how you laid it all out!

[lanz]

Thank you, I was a little nervous doing a page for someone else. I sure hope Alishaw likes it!

[digimad]

Lana, Love the muted color you chose to go with that pic. Good job!

[Alishaw]

Like it?? I LOVE IT!!! So adorable!!! It's just perfect...the colors, the layout, all of it! You are the best! Thank you so much Lana!

[cjoy2day]

This looks like so much fun. I'll def participate next time you do one.

[Jenny McDonald]

I promise I will join in next time. I promise, scouts honor... wait I was never in scouts!

[supermombritt]

Jenny one day you could be in scouts. You could be a great cub scouts leader and wear the cute yellow shirt. I am no longer over scouts and I am okay with that, but I will miss seeing those cute boys at pack meeting.

[Alishaw]

Madeline gave me the most adorable photos ever and I had a hard time doing them justice. The more I did the more I hated it! So they are simple and hopefully the focus is on the photos!! I left you room to journal or put the dates or whatever!! I assumed these are your kids...if not, holler and I"ll replace son and daughter with "neighbors kid" or "children I borrowed" or whatever! ;)
Items are from The Garden CD and swirlie is from Moods.

[Jamie Hamblin]

Cute Alisha! She's going to LOVE it~

[Kelli West]

Alisha!! SO stinkin cute! Of course I'm not surprised to find that you did an awesome LO! It's just how you roll... :)

[supermombritt]

Cute Alisha, she will love it. hey did you already get together with Brooke? When we went to lunch, she mentioned she was coming down your way. Did you get together?

[RobRob]

Alisha! Great pages! I love how they have an overall brownish look to them. Is that just my computer or did you do like a sepia overlay? Very cute!

[Alishaw]

They have a little sepia to them. Thanks guys!

[cjoy2day]

So cute Alisha, love them.

[lanz]

You did a great job Alishaw, I'm sure that she will love them too.

[digimad]

Alisha,
They are darling! I absolutely LOVE them! Thank you so much. And yes, the pics are of my kids. In case you were wondering why I was slow to respond, Lynnette and I have been up in the mountains at the annual LeBaron family reunion and campout. Four days of fishing, four-wheeling, eating way too much food, playing games, and having fun! We had a blast.

[chryslergreen]

Yes - we're back! Alisha, those pages are AMAZING. I hope you'll find some great pics of your own to put in there for your scrapbook as well! Those should be recycled!
