Welcome to Club 123. Hope you have stopped by for a little inspiration and a bit of fun. Here is how it works. Every month I will come up with a scrapbook recipe of inspiration. It will include 1 song, 2 sketches, and 3 products. Also, a technique or challenge that is suggested to inspire the participants to produce a one or two page layout. Is your mind spinning yet. This club was created by a fellow scrapbooker Jessica and I have been fortunate enough to be asked to take it over for her. So here we go...feel free to join in the fun!

June Challenge

Today was my kids' last day of school. It's summertime!!! (although the weather seems to say differently) Therefore, this month's inspiration is all about that season of sunshine that we here in Wisconsin, wait, and wait, and wait for. So in honor of this fine season the song of the month is "Summertime" by DJ Jazz and the Fresh Prince.


The sketches for this month...



The product...

The little extra, is to add handmade pinwheels...

And my take for the summertime challenge...
Can't wait for the girls to share their designs...See you on July 20th.

May Challenge

I started being the host of Club 123 in May. The girls brought in their layouts this session in June and I wanted to share their great creations with everyone. Here was my take on the challenge. I want Kelly to write a list of things she finds beautiful at age 10 and I will tuck it in the envelope.

The song for May was "All this Beauty" by the Weepies. A group I newly discovered. (Love them!) The products were mostly from the American Crafts, Dear Lizzy line. And the challenge was to use puffy paint.

Here is what was produced...

Great job girls! Can't wait to see Karen's ice cream cone drizzled with puffy paint.
