Challenge 3 - Choosing Your Colors
I chose my colors for this layout to bring out the great bright colors on the take-out menu from our favorite restaurant. The orange background also brings out the orange color of the rice in the food pictures. B…
This is for challenge #2. I posted a complete description and steps on my blog: http://suealthouse.blogspot.com/2010/08/paperclipping-monthly-challenge.html
This is for Challenge #1. When Noell spoke about her bowl of little bits of leftovers I realized we both do the same thing. This started out as paint chips and then I used all sorts of "little bits" to decorate each one with a letter from the alphab…
This is for Challenge #3. It is a hand colored photo of myself as a child. I chose papers with the same color as my dress. I printed out some digital papers and since there were a lot with coordinating colors I chose to layer a few. All the colors c…
This is for Challenge #4 - a mini art journal. Everything was done mini size but I tried a lot of new techniques. The cover features a heart made from paper towels which I had used to clean my space and then left dry for a dyed look. I used several…
Challenge 2 - Flexible Template - I use the 3 in a row sketch/template quite a bit. The inspiration for the design of the "Mud" layout came from Lisa Day. She used misting that left the ink splatters which reminded me of the ink splattering techniqu…
Challenge 1 - Repurpose your old items - I have a gazillion metal framed tags that I've had for years. I wanted to highlight my granddaughter holding the lizard between her fingers. My first thought was some circle bling I had on hand, but then usin…
Challenge #3:
Lately I have been buying a lot of purple to add to my new wardrobe... not a typical colour that I was used to wearing... but I have begun to love it... hence the title of my layout and the use of the colour purple... "Pretty in Purpl…
Profile Information
- How long have you been scrapbooking?
- Since the 70's - yep I'm that old - they were just memorabilia, photos & jouranling but some of my favorite albums still.
- Relationship Status:
- Married
- About Me:
- I married to a wonderful man & we have 2 grown sons. Both of them have wonderful longtime girlfriends who are like daughters. We love our "critters" and have a dog (Rosie) & 4 kitties. We're active in our church & missions.
Within the last year or so I've discovered the online scrapbooking community & it's really ignited my passion like never before. A day hardly goes by when I'm not doing some kind of paper craft.
I've recently started to submit to pub calls & design team calls. I'm excited by the recognition & hope it continues to grow.
I design for Everything Scrapp'n (www.everythingscrappn.com).

- Favorite Music:
- My IPOD is filled with a bit of everything from Rock - Country - Jazz - Classical - Gospel. It just depends on my mood.
A good Springsteen, Bon Jovi or Jackson Browne still aways makes me smile....
- Favorite TV Shows:
- I love the DVR so we can watch our shows when we want to - great invention....
I like ER, Grey's Anatomy (though sometimes the story line is annoying).
We watch a lot of shows on PBS, History Channel, Animal Planet & Discovery.
A guilty pleasure is catching Days of our Lives some days at 1pm - I kid my mom that it's one of my earliest memories - she would watch everyday so that's the only one that I know who is who but you sure don't have to watch daily to keep up lol
