Favorites Challenge

What are some of your favorite things?  That may not seem all the important to you right now, but some day that kind of information will be cherished by your children and their children.  It will also be fun to look back and reminisce.  It also gives you a glimpse of just how much you may or may not have changed over the years.  So... I have a challenge for you!  Scrap a page telling about some of your favorites.  It can be anything!  For instance, your favorite foods, your favorite songs, your favorite things to do, etc.  You can even scrap some of your favorite random things.  Like I did, below. This is an older layout, but I still love it.  Some of my favorites have changed and so my goal this week is to scrap about some of my new favorites! 

I challenge you to scrap your favorites!  Reply to this message with a link to your layout by Thursday May 15th.  I will choose a random winner for a fun RAK! :)  Oh... and the CT is welcome to participate! :)

What's YOUR nickname??

So, I had this unfinished LO sitting on my scrap table for weeks and weeks because I just didn't know WHAT to do with it... I had the picture I wanted to use... the paper... just no title, and no theme at all.  Until yesterday!! I was telling someone the name of my Etsy shop, The Jelly Bean Joint... and it just hit me!! I discovered the theme and title for my LO!  Jelly Bean is my nickname (from DB) and I call him Gummi Bear... I know, corny, but hey... It happens. lol

Anyway... I finished the LO and then thought, "Hey, what a fun challenge this would be!"  So, in order to get to know you better and, of course, to share the humiliation of my funny nickname, I challenge you to do a LO about nicknames!  If you're looking for a little guidance, here's my completed nickname LO:

   

Complete this challenge before next Monday at midnight and I'll choose a random entry for a RAK from my Etsy shop! yay!

Happy Birthday!

Okay, so it's not The Scrapbook Site's birthday, and it's not A Walk Down Memory Lane's birthday, and it's not really scrapbooking's birthday, but it was MY birthday!  So, in honor of all birthday's, I'm highlighting some wonderful layouts that highlight birthdays that can be found in the gallery at TSS.  While these were not made for me, I can appreciate that whomever these memories were for were just as special as my family made me feel this weekend!

This darling entry makes me smile and all that color makes me happy! 

Now, daisies are my very favorite and though I prefer white, blue is my favorite color!  This layout gave me the best of both worlds!

And THIS! What girl doesn't like "Birthday Bling" and diamonds at that!!

Now, you need to high-tail it over to the gallery and upload your birthday creations and when you do, be sure and link here to this post with your layout or card link.  I'll randomly choose ONE from all the links given to me and send you a RAK.  Entries will be taken until Sunday and I'll announce the winner right here on the blog!  So get scrappin!  I can't wait to see what  you make.

(P.S. If you make your project with something available at the store, and you show us a link to that product, I'll give you TWO entries in the hat! That's double your chances!  One entry per person/per household please!)

I wish you all the happiest of days!
