it's my turn hosting the weekly challenge at SC this week.
my challenge? use cell phone photos on a layout. i am so very grateful that i had my iphone in the hospital when i had the babies. if i didn't, i wouldn't have gotten snapshots like these:
Supplies used: Patterned Paper - Studio Calico Documentary Itinerary, Studio Calico Elementary Die Cut Pink, Library, Nibbles, Studio Calico Home Front Dollhouse; Stickers - Studio Calico Documentary Label Stickers, Elementary Label Stickers , Anthology Label Stickers, Home Front Label Stickers, Home Front Alphabet Stickers, Wood Veneers - Stars; Mist - Mister Huey's Calico White; Pen- Uniball Signo
I had a blast making this layout. I cut out bits and pieces of my favorite SC papers and used little stickers here and there (my favorites are the "a" and "b" stickers on the babies). It was just FUN. And that's my favorite kind of layout. The more fun the better.
I trimmed the large veneer star in half and used it to frame the title. To make the title pop, I outlined it with the signo.
So, go check out the challenge post. And join in! Oh, if you don't have a phone, or one that takes photos, I've posted alternatives!
I'll be back tomorrow with my January layouts. If you are a non subscriber, the kit and add-ons go live tonight at midnight EST.
That's it for today- I'm off to work on my latest project, I string one or two notions now and then when I have a second (like now, when j is holding the wee babes), one day I'll finish! This is a garland I'm making with notions and baker's twine. :)
Have a wonderful day!
Cute layout! What kind of white pen did you use? It looks so nice. Merry Christmas!

I got an iphone for the simple fact that the camera apps are so much fun! I have yet to scrap with iphone photos.

Thanks Stephanie-I am a dork I know, but I've never used my Iphone photos before. What size did you print them in? I want to make sure they don't turn out completely blurry. I don't mind some blur, but you know what I mean.
