NSD Creations

Second post for today. NSD Winners are HERE or just scroll down a post!


Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was fantastic. Did you get some scrapping/creating done for National Scrapbook Day on Saturday? Were you spoiled/loved/appreciated yesterday for Mother's Day? I sure hope so! I was! See posts below NSD winners.

So today I wanted to share with you the creations I made for NSD (well almost all of them) One is a gift and can't be shared just yet. Everything I made was from my COUNTERFEIT KITS for this month! YAY! I played along with some challenges at Scrapbook.com and WON! WOOHOO! That was really exciting, and I am super glad I got done what I did! So here you go!

My first layout of the day was about WHY I scrapbook. I am not sure this was for a challenge but I thought it was pretty appropriate to do on NSD! LOL!

My second layout is one of my favorites as of yet, not because of the layout but the pictures. They crack me up! The journaling reads,
"Caitlyn I am not sure WHAT upset you or WHY you were so angry but I had to capture it. One day you will look at this and maybe you will be upset with me or maybe you will laugh like I will. You see, may baby drama queen, you were NOT always good and full of smiles. You are also stubborn, dramatic, and quite frankly a handful. Parenting you is my greatest joy and frustration, but I love you FOREVER baby drama queen."
The third and fourth layouts will sit side by side. They also were for a challenge, but only one got posted in time! They are from our first ever visit to the National Zoo. Caitlyn and her BFF loved the meerkats and elephants the most. We spent half the trip at the meerkat display! The fourth layout just cracks me up. I LOVE the look on Mama Gorilla's face, so I thought the title was very fitting!

The final layout I have to share today is the one that won me a prize package over at scrapbook.com. It was a random draw with the challenge being use a homemade flower embellishment. I actually do not like this layout that much but it works. This is DH's sister, C's only blood Aunt. I do like how I did the title though! Love those little word stickers! The flowers are made with a heart punch, white pen and ink.
So what did you get done this weekend? Link me up I would love to come and see what you made/did. Have a fantastic Monday!
