Winter!

It is Friday and that means that we have a new Fabulous Friday Challenge for you today at Frosted Designs! This week is a Recipe Challenge! I love these! For our challenge, you need to use: 3 Patterned Papers, 2 Buttons, 1 Word Title. It sounds pretty easy but I have to be honest... I really wanted to add in a few more patterned papers, couldn't find a spot where I liked the buttons and could not think of a one word title!! But... I guess that is why they call it a challenge!! :)  Here is the layout I created....


When we were visiting our family in Indiana over Christmas, we took an afternoon to go ice-skating at one of the city parks. This has become an annual outing with Lauren but this year Matt decided to come along. I am so glad he did! We all had so much fun! And then a few weeks ago, I got a phone call from my mother that she has all of these crocheted snowflakes that she was getting rid of and wondered if I wanted them! Uhhh... Yah!! I can't believe she even needed to ask! I couldn't wait to use them and this LO was perfect! I loved layering them with the Me & My Big Ideas acetate snowflakes! I added a few brads to hold it all together! And as you can see, I do have two buttons on here. They are the blue circles in the bottom right corner by the snowflakes. I put a gem on top of them to hide the holes! I love the way everything turned out!

I found this sketch at Creative Scrappers that was perfect for my photos....


We would love to have you join in the fun at Frosted Designs! And since we have 3 challenges (Fabulous Friday Challenge, Layout Sketch Challenge and the Card Sketch Challenge) going all the time, there is something for everyone! Come join the fun! And did I mention that all of our challenges give away great prizes?!! :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

I really like the texture on this page. Even though there are a lot of different elements here, you made it all come together beautifully with your thoughtful color choices and soft "extras." The layout really draws the viewer's eyes to the pictures. This scrapbook page is well done! :-)
