Celebrate Independence at Ike's World Challenges Blog

Today I created a hybrid layout for my DT make at Ike's World Challenges Blog. Hybrid projects mix hand-crafting with digital design. I hand-colored images from Ike's Art, fussy-cut them, and added in a mix of photos to make a 21st birthday page of my daughter.I thought it was perfect for the theme of "Be Independent" as Wendy was born on the 4th of July, 1995. That's right, my baby girl is 21!!  

I tried to encompass her journey from little tyke to young woman, and I am proud that I am her mom. Happy Birthday, my love!

Here's what went into my layout:

Digital Images (colored with Copics): Ike’s Art New Baby, My Teddy, Teenager

Papers: Decosse’s Dynamite Doodles’ Glitterati Glitter Pink Paper; Pixel Scrapper Melo Vrijhof’s Painted Papers Flowers

Elements: (PixelScrappers) Sharon Grant’s It’s a Girl Thing Frame Cluster02; Pauline Thompson’s Masculine 2 Clock & Star Brad 7; Ania Archer Art of Every Day Heart Scatter; Janet Scott’s Toolbox Calendar Metal Fireworks Doodle; Elif Sahin’s Christmas Day Elements Washi Tape 1
Now it's your turn. You have another week for the Be Independent challenge over at Ike's World Challenges Blog. What are you waiting for?! LOL

Quirky Challenge Reminder

Hello, crafters! I have been playing in my craft room and have created a hybrid layout. When I write hybrid, I mean that I used a digital image and colored it with my Copics, then used it to frame a photograph. I finished off my page digitally.
I created my page for this month's challenge over at Quirky Crafts Challenge Blog, where the challenge is FLOWERS. There are THREE sponsors this month, which means extra chance to win prizes in May. My image comes from Delicious Doodles and is called Daisies & Butterfly Frame.

Here is what went into my scrapbook layout today:
