ScrapFIT journaling challenge

I'm here today with a new layout that I worked on today at my friend's scrapbook day. It is so great to be able to get away of average of one day a month and chat with friends and get some scrapping done. Notice I put chat with friends first, because I honestly think I do more of that than the scrapbooking. Anyway, this was the combined challenge at ScrapFit and Paper Variety. The sketch was from Paper Variety and the journaling was from ScrapFit. It's too late to link my project up to Paper Variety, but I made the ScrapFIT deadline just in time!
Thanks for looking and I hope you are all having a great weekend!

Arrr

Hello everyone! I'm here with a quick blog post and a layout. Things have been busy between lots going on at work, Liam turning 1, family visiting, decluttering the basement, etc... So, what's a busy girl to do when she wants to scrapbook? Fit 4 challenges on one page, that's what! Let's get right to the layout!
Here are the challenges it meets:

1. Sketch Challenge over at Elle's Studio. I stuck pretty closely to the sketch, and I included an Elle's Studio tag for my journaling.

2. Challenge #27: Stencils at Scrapbook Circle. I FINALLY got to play with my February kit from Scrapbook Circle, but used the stencils that came in the March kit to do my title. I traced the letters for ARRR above the circle on my paper and then went over them with silver Stickles. They are hard to see in the picture, but they really do pop out more in real life.

3. Weekend Warm-Up #25 at Scrap Fit. This challenge was to get messy. I splattered and dripped the pink circle with a Spritz Spray.

4. Tic Tac Toe at The Paper Variety. I did the bottom row. I included stitching by machine stitching over the faux stitching on the Elle's Studio tag, created a layout, and included die cuts.

Thanks for looking and hope everyone had a good weekend!
