PACS 2010 - Team Challenge (Pirate)

On the first crop night the organizers gave a small kit for each team. Since they were dressed as pirates, the challenge wad to use the kit (and nothing more) to create a layout with pirate theme.

I think we cooperated well together. This is the layout we created (we won 2nd place!!):

Sorry for the bad picture - it was taken when the layout was inside a page protector.

And this is the prize each of us won:

New Chunky page: Sweet recipe swap

I participated in a swap of recipes - sweet recipes.

For the first page I chose a recipe of Chocolate chip & peanut butter cookies by Karin Goren.

This is the first chunky page I created:

When you pull the ribbon you can see the ingredients above and the instructions below:

And the back:

I used:

Cardstock: DCWV

Letter Stickers: Cosmo Cricket Tiny Type

Pen: Sharpie

I appreciate your comments!

New layout: Olive Harvest

This layout was inspired by sketch #44 @ Tuesday Trio. The extra challenge was "circles". The pictures were taken about 2 years ago. The kindergarten's management arranged a picnic for the kids' families. There were few activities, but the big attraction was to harvest olives.

The inspiration for the layout came from Isabelle Gallien's layouts - she taught some classes at PACS and her work is very inspiring!

I used:

Cardstocks: My Little Shoe Box

Stamps: Marmelada

Ink: Tsukineko Versafine

Pen: Sharpie

Tools: Fiskars circle cutter, Stampin' Up circle punch

New Chunky page: Happy Birthday to Tamika14

Last Thursday we celebrated Tamika14 her birthday. It was kind of blind date for me - I never met in person 3 of the other 4 participants - and it was a great evening! Simple & Tasty food, great company and new friends!

Since the scrappy birthday has a chunky book tradition (hopefully I'll have a chunky book too one day <--- CLUE!!) - This is the page I created (note the embroidery of the circles & Mazal Tov):

And this is the back - Many wishes for her birthday (health, happiness, pleasure, satisfaction, love & creativity):
And here's a picture to show you the dimensional work - chunky or not??

I used:

Cardstock: Kraft, DCWV, Sonburn (and other scraps)

Pen: Sharpie

Tools: Stampin' Up! circle punches & Cropodile - for the little circles...

PACS 2010 - Christmas Challenge

On Saturday night we were asked to come with Christmas spirit... Red & white, christmas hats etc... The organizers gave us a small kit for a challenge: create a christmas card, using the kit and/or any other paper & embellishments we want, to fit the given envelope - all in 30 minutes...

I didn't bring my scrapbooking tools that night, so I had to go back to my room, get my tools and come back (so I had less than 30 minutes)...

This is the card I created:

And the inside, after pulling the pear paper to the sides (I'm not sure if the picture is clear - but it's like a box):

We don't know who will get our card - but I hope she likes it!

I appreciate your comments :-)
