Finally Finished My Salad!!!!

Challenge 6 that would be. I knew all those add ins would make me burp!!


First, all PP, and I really needed a solid to build upon...so I went digging into a storage cabinet at the far corner of the basement where I keep papers I no longer groove on, but figure they are good for cards, kids crafting, etc. Found some subtle PP there in a working color.



My next challenge was 5 photos. I found photos I wanted to scrap right away, but when I looked at my add ins - bling, glitter and flowers did not really work for a layout about farmer friend Rick. My add ins included: flowers, chipboard, felt, bling, glitter, brads, tag, something green



I settled on kindergarten pics of Abby and a friend - I could bling away on this one. Two pagers take me forever, but I am finished, it is 11 pm, I have to work tomorrow, of course...and all I really want to do is go see what the 10th challenge is and try to tackle at least one more tonight. Wished I had taken Monday off!

Somebody tell me WHY I just moved some heavy drawers to access the letter "A" that was tucked behind, and I have just cut out the base paper, have embellies, etc. sitting there ready to go. I mean...midnight is almost here and I DO have to work tomorrow. Crop madness has truly taken over...and I just ate a dark chocolate bar...to keep me buzzing a while longer. I am going to completely crash tomorrow afternoon...not good.

Hopefully you went to bed at some point last night/this morning!


But good job on finishing your salad! (I only picked a few add-ins because I knew too much would cause me all kinds of scrappy heartburn... LOL)

I didn't want to take a pic in bad night time lighting...what's the point if the glitter and bling doesn't sparkle?;) I am trying to be patient... if the appraiser goes thru the house fast I hope to at least photograph the layout when I run home late morning to meet him.
