A few challenge layouts and a few new pictures.

Despite feeling a little out of sorts still after my long weekend, I managed to do two challenges in the past few days. The first was one I found at Hummie's World, though it was actually an away challenge from scrapbook-bytes called Creative Ways to use Your Stash. The point of the challenge was to use a photo prong to hold down a fold in a paper or on a photo.

So here is that one...

Photo Prong from Color Line Designs Birthday Collab
Paper and Bracket elements from Amy Teets Sunporch Kit.
Frame is from Ellie's Autumn by Lynn.
Fonts are Snap ITC, Tunga, and Pea Heather.

And I did another challenge at Sunshine Studio Scraps too. That place is just chock full of awesome designers I tell ya. And they are all so friendly! Their 8th Challenge was a font challenge, but with a twist. We weren't assigned a specific font. We all had to use at least two of our favorite fonts in a layout. The point was to maybe introduce people to new fonts they hadn't seen yet. I picked BlackJack which Hummie had done a challenge with and I have been in love with ever since. It's great for titles and journaling both. I also used Pea Alesa, since I love just about ALL of the Pea fonts.

Everything is from the Challenge 7 Freebie Kit Splish Splash from Ellie and Shauna
Fonts are BlackJack and Pea Alesa

And I wanted to share a few more pictures from my weekend. I keep going through them and I just can't stop laughing! So here is a picture of my husband to make you laugh too, you know the poor guy that works 4 jobs and never gets to enjoy himself. He made up for it big time this weekend! Can you tell?
Oh, yeah...that's mine. *LMBO* But to be fair I should post a picture of what I looked like around the same time that night....
Yup, I'm looking a little rough! *L* Talk about droopy eyes! And here is one of my favorite "caught on camera" moments. The groom came back to the table to find one of his best friends in his seat chattin' up his new wife.
Ok...now for a more serious picture and then I'll stop posting. (for now :: HeHe::) Ever have one of those moments that really reminds you what drew you to your husband in the first place? My husband can drive me nuts, but this moment at the wedding reminded me why I love him. Both the bride and groom have lost their Dads. When the wedding party did the first dance one of the bride's uncle's stepped up to dance with the mother of the bride. The mother of the groom was left standing by herself on the side. My husband looked at me and said "That's not right!" and went up and took her hand and danced with her. I just thought it was the sweetest thing and darn it if I didn't cry! But I held off long enough to get a picture *LOL*
