Epic Fail on the Blog!

I'm pretty sure I might be the world's worst blogger.  My poor blog has been ignored for a year!  That's just sad, although it felt like it's been about that long since I've scrapbooked last.  Things have gotten so busy on the homefront I haven't made the time to do much of anything outside of taking care of the kids and cleaning the house.  Or at least it seems that way.  We did take a few vacations over the summer which has given me a lot to scrap about.  Plus now that the kids are back in school I can finally get back to a little me time. 

Here are a few layouts I made for some challenges I did over at My Scraps and More.  Still my favorite place to shop online, I also love their non-drama message board, challenges and sketch blog.  It's a great place so check it out!  These layouts are for the annual Got Talent they host over at My Scraps and More during the summer.  That is over now but there are daily challenges on their message board.

For this layout we were to get messy and fussy cut, so I finally pulled out my gelatos (which I highly recommend to use if you haven't tried them yet, tons of fun) and the presents are fussy cut.

The challenge for this layout was to use only patterned paper, including the embellishments!

 And finally, the challenge for this layout was to cut your photo in something other than a square.  I fell in love with the layout by My Scraps and More owner Audrey (who also issued this challenge) so I scraplifted her and came up with this page which turned into one of my favorites!

Thanks for stopping by today, I'm planning on getting some scrapping done today as well as watch the Mizzou football game, GO TIGERS!  Have a great Saturday!
