Catching Up

Hi everyone! I have an unexpected afternoon off work today so I thought I'd pop in and update you with the layouts I've done so far this month. First up is this layout I created with Touch of Christmas by Karen Schulz and Linda Cumberland, a product released for a Christmas in July sales event. Here's the layout:

Another challenge going on this month at Oscraps is the Color Palette Challenge:

I have to admit, the colors threw me for a loop at first, but then as I looked through my photos I found one that would work. I also browsed the shop and found this perfect kit from NLD Designs, who just opened up a guest shop at Oscraps this month and has tons of stuff on sale:

 

 My resulting page:

Finally, I took the opportunity to work with this Gardening Mini Kit by Jopke Designs, who has recently returned to the Oscraps shop after taking a short break from designing:

Here's my layout:

 

That's it for today! I'm going to try to be productive now, but I'm sure I'll make time for more scrapping, so make sure you come back and see me soon!
