February Random Challenge

I chose to do another Art Doll as I had so much fun with the one I created for Cynthia's challenge in MOC.

 

I was so curious to use the mosaic technique with a sunset photo...this challenge was perfect!!

 

So for the February Random Challenge I went ahead with Geometric Mosaic (Day 22). It was a technique I had never used in all the years I have been scrapbooking.

 

My entry for the Random Challenge - Feb 2018...

I redid the In a Row Technique - Day 30

Kit used: After the Rain Collab

Journaling:
I feel like the little girl I am in the picture. I’m laying here unable to quiet my mind. Two years ago I was numbly sitting on the side of my bed coloring a flower picture for my Mom and feeling as though the world had ended. I didn’t know what else to do. I couldn’t cry anymore and I could not sleep. I still can’t believe she’s gone. I felt the ugly cry well from deep inside of me so many times tonight - but God’s grace and the love of Michael and Melissa pushed it away by their love. So many times these past two years I have wanted to share things with her, to hug her, to call her, and the fact that she’s just not there frankly still shocks me. I’m sad she is not seeing Melissa grow into the beautiful young lady she knew Melissa would be one day. I’m sad she never saw me waking up from my depressed stupor and start taking care of myself again - wearing my makeup again and stylish, feminine clothes. I’m sad she never got to see our house and see us settled and happy. I’m sad she never got to share in the joy of Michael’s job and the joy it brings to our family. I wish I had woken up sooner so that we could have shared the happiness of transformation an growth in the Lord. She used to say “if wishes were horses, beggars would ride...”I sure hope if there’s a way, that God will somehow let her see all the good times and changes she missed in our lives.

 

Tried again the bingo Challenge from MOC this time i use the letter N ( 1 paper solid, one big photo, cork wood arrows, doily lace, a cluster of four flowers.)

 

I did the recipe challenge from Jan 1

 

tough decision as to which challenge to do.....one I haven’t done or one I really enjoyed

 

a second look at Day 16 Off center phtoto

 

I chose the Mosaic Technic/ January 22/ MOC 6. I was very excited about it. For me it is also a challenge to use only a few elements.

 

Day 29 - Creativity with Alphas

 

I chose to do the Jan. 18: Recipe (random challenge)

 

I used the 6 designers challenge



You Make My Heart Ring {Dressed Down} by Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs
Two Little Birds {Elements} by Paula Kesselring
Love Cut Outs by Scrapping With Liz
Love You Beary Much | Elements by Pink Reptile Designs
Love You Beary Much | Papers by Pink Reptile Designs
Messy Beautiful Elements by paislee press
Crazy Little Thing elements by Lynn Grieveson Designs
100% Friends | Kit by Sabrina's Creations

 

I used this challenge to do what so many in the gallery have done, gather all those MOC challenges on one layout. So I think that was the January 7th Challenge

 

Day 21 What Makes Me Happy

 

I redid the Jan 30 All in a Row Technique

 

I did the Filled page challenge.

 

I chose Day 26 - Heritage/Tradition Journaling Challenge. MOC inspired off a new family history project for me, so I wanted to add to that!

 

There were so many challenges I want to redo, I finally just had to pick one. I chose the Creativity With Alphas challenge (Five distinct alphas with visible attachments)

 

I didn't need to re-do any, but I love a good scraplift and found so many during MOC Day 23 that I decided to do that one again

 

I clipped images to letters
