Victoria Marie Crop - August 2022 - Mixed Media

Well, I'm back with some more layouts from another Victoria Marie Crop. I still have a couple more days to finish some layouts and get them uploaded to the Facebook group so I might post some more if I manage to get them done. This crop's theme was to use our mixed media products. I love using mixed media so this was a lot of fun. 

She has 10 crops during the year except for one month for a vacation and December when everyone is so busy. I highly encourage you to check her out at Victoria Marie Designs blog or on her Facebook page. She will be doing the crops again next year. You can purchase the entire year of crops for a discount this fall or purchase them as you want to attend.

Here are some of the layouts I have completed so far. 









Bash Your Scrapbook Stash (BYSS) - "The Bashelor" July 2022

 Hi Everyone! I've been continuing to bash my scrapbook stash. I did a few layouts for some challenges over at the Facebook Group Bash Your Scrapbook Stash. You should check them out. They are a great group that encourages you to use what you have. 

In July, the theme for BYSS was "The Bashelor" which played off of...yep, you guessed it...The Bachelor. They gave you various dates/adventures you could choose (your scrapbook challenges) and create your layouts. I was so surprised when I had pictures to match some of the dates/adventures like baking class or escape room. It did not have to be the literal interpretation so you could scrap about cooking something. 

The catch was you were to "Bash" a paper pad/collection. I choose Paige Evans Wonders paper pad and collection to try and bash and I did pretty well at bashing it which made me very happy. I took some of the pictures of the layouts before I got the journaling done to get them posted to the group in time. But the main work was done.

Hope you enjoy it!











Victoria Marie Crop - July 2022 Layouts

I'm back with some more layouts I've managed to get done. I attended another Victoria Marie Crop and managed to get quite a few of the challenges done and I've continued to use up some really old papers as well as embellishments from my stash which is a win-win. This crop's theme was using stamps. That was a lot of fun and was able to use stamps I had yet to use and were just sitting in my stash. 

Victoria's crops are a lot of fun and she also has a lot of classes you can take. You can check her out at Victoria Marie Designs blog or on her Facebook page. 

Here are some of the layouts I have completed. I still have to add journaling to a couple of them but wanted to go ahead and share them. 










Totally Awesome and Cool Kid



 I created another layout using up some old papers. These papers were from Scenic Route and I have always loved these papers. I did some stamping around the background and used some flair from Scrappin' Happy Studio and Shadnee on Etsy. I did the big splotches using Tim Holtz Distress Stain dobbers in Faded Jeans. 






Hope you enjoyed my layout. 
Happy Scrapping!!!
