AmyK's Bloggin' Challenge

Okay, I'm taking Amy's challenge over at RAKScraps...it's RAK week by the way!

1. What colors do you use the most when you scrap?
Looking through my gallery, I'd have to say pink and any pastels. With twin girls, need I say more?

2. What is your favorite kit theme? (like boys, girls, heritage, special event, etc)
Hmmm...this would have to go with my answer above...girls! Although I do get a big kick out of seeing really specific kit themes, like hockey, Olympics, etc.

3. What are your favorite elements to use when you scrap?
I love ribbons, because you can do so much with them...frames, background, borders, etc. And of course I love all papers.

4. Describe your style (even if you don't think you have one!)
LOL I just posted a thread about this over at RAKScraps!

5. If you could have one kit made especially for you, what would it be for?
Hmmm...I would have to say a kit with a mountain theme, since we take so many mountain-type vacations.

Thursday featured rectangle scrapper: Christina Bartholomew

This week I'd like to feature the wonderful layouts by Christina Bartholomew. Her style is very traditional and leans toward the paper scrapping type-look. She manages to get tons of photos in every layout, and she usually does 2-pages to accomodate all those photo and her wonderful journaling. Her gallery over at 3Scrapateers reminds me that I don't have to chase every design trend that comes down the pike. Her layouts have such a warm, cozy feeling and I know her children will so appreciate all her hard work.

Christina is also a designer and has some really fun kits. Check our her stuff at 3Scrapateers. Thanks for the inspiration Christina!

Thursday featured rectangle scrapper: Novita

I'd like to start featuring rectangle scrappers every Thursday here...and the first one is Novita from RAKScraps. Her "Sisterly Love" layout is just lovely, don't you think? She has a special knack for photography, especially close-ups. The placement of her elements is just right. And check out that quote journaled on the postcard...very cool!

You can view her gallery at RAKScraps here.
