Finally! I am able to upload this. =) This is the layout that won me first place in the Advance Category during Scrapfest 5. Thank you so much Scrappinmoms! I won a brand new Canon Selphy! Yay!
A bit of history of this shot. Abby was playing in the front yard and started picking pebbles. She was so happy just doing that! lol! So glad I had my camera with me that time.
I must admit, I was really intimidated when the names belonging to the Advance Category were called. They are all very good scrappers I felt like a newbie! And when the Moms announced the 'secret ingredient', boy! I was really really appehensive. I've never worked with a corrugated board before in my layouts. It was one of the most nerve-wracking one and a half hour of my life. I thought I would never finish on time. It's a good thing I got the Bazzill cardstock I ordered from Scrapbookshawaii that day. I think the scallop edge complimented the layout. That's where I started then the ideas just kept flooding in. When the time was up, I presented this to the judges: (sorry, the image is a bit crooked. I think it still need a bit of tweaking in Photoshop)
Title: Pebble Play
Journaling: Who ever thought picking pebbles was so much fun! I'm hoping you'll grow up and find happiness & contentment in small things. But don't let it deter you from achieving big things. Mommy 05-03-2008
Materials/Tools: Scrapfest Challenge Kit(oops! forgot take note of the patterned paper manufacturers =( ), Bazzill Fancy Edges CS, Prima flower and bling, American Crafts Vinyl Thickers, Making Memories acrylic paint, Staz-On, Corrugated board, Autumn Leaves stamps
