I love this layout by CrazyCat1126! The beautiful lush flowers cascading down her page really caught my eye! I also love the beautiful stacked printed papers!

I really like this challenge format since most challenges start with an idea, then I have to find the perfect set of photos for that idea. With this one, I can start with my photos, then find an idea that matches my photos. Both styles are fun, but this is helping me get a lot of pages done that I haven't had just the right challenge for yet.

1. My first Shoutout and Spin is by shunnstergirl who scrapped this great beach scene with a nautical vibe. I especially liked this one because it had such a variety of photo sizes and frames to make each photo stand out.


2. jk703 had this lovely, giant photo that was perfect for my page.


3. This page by Disneysheryl was a perfect blend of simplicity with an accent of fun and worked great to compliment my other layout for a double page.


4. I flipped this page by Elsieanne as my next challenge.


5. I loved this fun page by nietis that made the perfect complimentary page.


6. This layout by Elsieanne was perfect with the faded photo and all the great clusters!


7. I'm a huge fan of full page layouts. This one by kristalund is priceless.

Happy New Year!!!

My spot! :wub:
I completed 15 scraplifts!

Scraplift #1: I chose this page by Mone - What really draws me to this page is the blended photo and the beautiful green background. The frames around the photos and the page design inspired me to create this LO:


Scraplift #2: I chose this page by Kimberly27 - What drew me most to Kimberly’s page was the page design and its focus on the large photo.


Scraplift #3: I chose this page by lorigaud - I think her page is so beautiful and colorful. It immediately caught my eye! And with all the elements together, it makes a stunning layout.


Scraplift #4: I chose this page by Scrap-therapy: I think this layout by Emily is absolutely beautiful! I love her scrapbooking style and the way she always uses colors so beautifully. Her page really gives me such a cozy vibe!


Scraplift #5: I chose this page by Romajo: I think the page design is absolutely amazing and so beautifully scrapped!


Scraplift #6: I chose this page by Valleygirl: I think this way of scrapbooking is so beautiful and so cool, it's not entirely my style but I want to challenge myself every now and then.


Scraplift #7: I chose this page by cherrygutz: I’m in love with the heart in the center, so beautifully dressed up with the photo, the quote, and the flowers! I repeated this detail in my layout.


Scraplift #8: I chose this page by jozetteblack: I really love the page design and the layered papers at the bottom.

Scraplift #11: I chose this page by Elsieanne: I was looking for a kit with colors that would match the tractor photos; this time I didn’t want to use a farm kit. I came across Elsieanna’s LO and felt that her color palette matched my photos beautifully. The blue color is reflected again in the tractor.


Scraplift #12: I chose this page by cinderella: I love the page design with the large, beautiful photo. I mirrored the page and added a few extra photos.

Lift #2 is EASTER from Elsieanne. The emphasis on the title is wonderful, along with the decorative clusters

Lift #13 is Medieval Tournament by fruitysuet. I love Cindy Schneider's film strips along the side and I lifted the bright color palette


Lift #14 is Pumpkins by 3BluEyedBabi. The circular frame is a winner!


Lift #15 is LOVE by StacyLynn. The long tags are a great feature!
