And the random winner is SiriF from Alesund, Norway! CONGRATULATIONS YOUR PRIZE IS 500 SPRINKLES! Thank you to everyone who participated. I wish I had enough gifts for each of you. Your layouts are beautiful! 


Are you up?  Have you had your coffee or tea?  Okay!  Grab a simple sketch, photos for your layout, papers and embellishments.  Be sure to find a bird (any embellishment, paper, photo, or any bird you can attach to your layout) and add it to the mix!  Early birds gather sprinkles!  Throw it all on your desk and get busy!  You have only an hour to make a layout from your sketch, so I am going to stop talking and let y’all get to gettin’.  Snap a picture of your goodies you plan to use and then a picture of your final layout when the hour is up.  500 Sprinkles for the winner will be awarded on Friday, May 1, 2020.  My example is below.

That's ok!  Just give it a try put your photos and papers out and see how it goes!  I can take a whole day to make one layout!  LOL!  

That is a lovely sample!!! WOW!  I am a slow scrapper! I am in awe of all you FAST scrappers!

I´m ready! (If someone can tell me why all my photos flip when I upload them to the gallery, that would be great! The photohunt took forever!)



All done! (edited after 4 to change photo to one with the right orientation!)


I´m so confused, the photo is right side up when looking at it on my phone, but sideways on my computer... I´ll try to fix it after dinner!

lol...it takes me a week sometimes two to finish a layout.  I overthink things.  I'll see what I can do   thanks for the vote of confidence!

About the sideways photos I find that when I upload to my computer and do the minimum of fixing, like crop even a tiny bit they will upload right.
 

Well, I will cheer you all on. 

No birds, and an hour to do a layout...lol.  it takes me an hour to find the right paper.

I'm going to attempt to do this within the hour.  Luckily I know exactly where I have some bird embellishments.

Saving my spot!

My Supplies: 

I have birds, and photos to go with them, but those photos are too special to do in an hour. Actually I don't think I can do any layout in an hour. Can't wait to see what the others do. 

I can't wait to see these.  It takes me an hour to decide what to do!

No stress.  Keep it simple!  I am cheering y'all on from here! Any bird.  Even the word bird.  

Prep with sketch and supplies:

Ok, ladies.  Just getting up in the Intermountain west!!  I am just sipping my coffee.

loving what you have picked out!
 

This was fun! I’m glad I had some photos handy and knew just where to find some bird stickers in my disaster of a supply hoard! Had to rush rush because my son wakes up about this time- and sure enough right as I finished I heard him wake up and ask his Dada, “Where’s Mama at?” So cute.
