TTCC #4 - Jacob's Colors

OK, so, for the final color challenge at Twilight Tuesday the super-amazing Alison chose Jacob's colors - Russet, Black, and Olive.(Yes, I'm trying really hard to not be a big baby and sit and cry over the fact that there won't be any more of these challenges, but it's difficult) Jacob was one of my very favorite characters in the books, so, I always like projects involving him. I never have been a Team Edward, or, Team Jacob person. I have plenty of love to go around to both of them...and Jasper.;)

Here's my Jacob card...



I'm trying to get better at blending with my markers. I didn't have a marker that looked right for Jake's skin, though, so, I used a colored pencil...



The stamp is from Fiskars. I thought it suited Jacob. The digi stamp is from The Greeting Farm.

Hope you like it!:)

TTCC #3 - Bella and Edward's Wedding Flowers

The Twilight Tuesday Color Challenge today was based on the flowers from Bella and Edward's wedding. Isn't that a cool idea? I think so. So, the colors were Lilac, Orange Blossom, and Rose. Pretty!

I decided to make something different today. I used a template for a round box that I found on Piali's blog.(make sure you check out the box she made, it is amazing!)

Here's mine...





For a first try I don't think it turned out too bad.:)

Paper from The Paper Studio-Serendipity.

3 in 1!

I'm multitasking! I decided to make this layout for three challenges instead of doing them all separately this week. The challenges are Twilight Tuesday Scrapbooking Challenge #4 - The Unflattering Side of Pregnancy, Twilight Tuesday Color Challenge #2 - Thoughts of Bella, and the January Scrapbook Sketch Challenge from Smeared and Smudged. I don't usually feel like the challenges I'm doing go hand in hand, but these just seemed to work together for me.




The picture was taken right before we left home for the hospital, my water had already broken, and we decided to take one last picture of my huge belly before we left. My belly button that is usually an inney was poking out, and I had stretchmarks galore, and it was early morning, so, I was tired.

Papers from DCWV, The Paper Studio, The Paper Company, Core'Dinations, and Colorbok. Ink from Studio G. I just printed the letters using an office program on my computer.(When I made the custom text color on my computer it looked just like the Forks Sky color from the challenge, but it didn't print out looking that way) The little starburst punch I used was from Creative Memories.

Hopefully you enjoyed getting to see me in all my pregnant glory, I don't usually share this picture with everyone, but I thought I would for the challenge. Thanks for looking!:)

TTCC #1!

I'm just now getting a chance to post my challenge project. Phew! I hate when everything seems to get in my way. Anyway, this week's challenge from Twilight Tuesday was a color challenge! Here's what they said over at Twilight Tuesday:

"Greetings and welcome to Twilight Tuesday’s very first Color Challenge! Every couple of weeks, we will be giving you a brand new color challenge. This is going to be a lot of fun!

Your first Color Challenge is going to feature Edward’s coloring. The first color is Butterscotch for his eyes (when he isn’t hungry!), second is Alabaster for his pale, pale skin, and third is Reddish-Brown for his fabulous hair! "

And here's my card...




I used Coredinations papers, the dressy Ed digi stamp from The Greeting Farm, some brads, various colored pencils to color the stamp, and my Creative Memories Stardust Maker punch and my little Xyron to make the little star stickers.

I tried to make his hair have the auburn tinges to it with the pencils. I don't think I did too bad.

Thanks for looking!:)
