Butterfly Craft Challenge #27

Butterfly Crafts Challenge #27 is up and it's all about one's favorite holiday. At first, I was going to scrap Halloween since it's my all time fav but with a new family tradition, it's hard not to choose Christmas (Eve) for this really fun holiday!

I used Leah Farquharson's Christmas Cookies available at FunkyPlayGround.com
Here is my take on this challenge and was a pure joy to create after coming back from Christmas Eve dinner! :D Little Jer performed some Chinese songs and we later played some musical chairs. Awesome awesome time!Title: Gathered

Journaling:This year, as part of my family’s Christmas tradition, My brother proposed to have Christmas Eve dinner at his home at Magallanes Village. It was a great idea since it would mean being able to comfortably stay there for as long as we want and my nephew, Little Jeremy, can go to bed whenever he wanted without having to break-up the dinner and go home. We all contributed in some way:- my brother ordered food, mom cooked and I brought appetizers to help ease the load.
It was a great night of food, company, gift-giving and the start of a great tradition!

Butterfly Crafts Challenge #25

Butterfly Crafts Challenge 25 is scrapping about what your child or children like to do. If you don't have children maybe a grandchild, niece or nephew or if you are a Godparent, talk about your Godchildren. Are they involved in sports, music, art or maybe the school play? Let's talk about it. Lets see your layouts bragging about the wonderful children in your lives!

This was a fun one! I haven't done this for awhile now since I scrap more random things than my family (aside from our little pet chi).
I used Divine Digital's Bless Our Nest (November Mega Collaboration Kit) to complete this challenge. See preview below.

Come join the fun here!
Title: Boy Faces
Journaling: Here are some of the many faces of my cute and funny nephew, Jeremy.
He’s now a bit older than 2 and ever since he learned to speak, we were able to understand and enter his fantasy world of marine life. He would assign people in the family names like “mama octopus” for his mommy, “daddy clown fish” for his daddy and “moray eel” for himself. After he gets tired of playing, “make-believe”, he would then tell everyone that they are all back as people family again.
That’s my nephew...a boy with a wonderful imagination. Jeremy, don’t grow up too fast, just yet. :)

So excited to work with these wonderful ladies and play along the inspirational challenges. You can join us here.

For the first challenge (Challange 21), we had to scrap a life changing moment for us. Check it out here.

For the challenge, I created using Grungy Geometry by JW-DigiScraps (Janice Ward), available at DivineDigitals.com.

Product Review:
I love the embellishments and the papers were very cool! It's a fun fun kit with main colors of reds and blues and greens (primary colors) that was neuralized by the browns in the background.
Overall, a fun kit that can be used for any scrap topics/themes you would like.
