Hello Twilighters! Are you ready for another TT Scrapbooking Challenge? Let’s see what Alison has for us:

Welcome to the second Twilight Tuesday Scrapbooking Challenge! The Holidays are almost over, so maybe you can find some time to play along with us! This week’s challenge is about one of the Cullen boys… Jasper has the special ability to control the emotions of the people in a room. He often made Bella relax in Twilight. Who in your life does that for you? Maybe you have a special place you go to to find peace. What is your "Jasper?" Make a scrapbook page representing that person or place! Or, you can make a layout about Jasper himself!

Ok, so Alison asks us who or what in our life makes us relax. Well, this is a little difficult for me because it seems like I’m always searching for a Quiet Mind. I’ve been thinking and thinking about what I would do for this challenge, and then something kind of cool happened…it snowed on Christmas.

A white Christmas! Now that is something to think about! Snowfall is a serene and beautiful thing. Snow at night is even better! The peacefulness of snow quietly falling at night…can you think of anything more relaxing? I can’t! Not right now, anyway!!

I took this snapshot on Christmas day. I thought this was the most beautiful snow I’ve ever seen. The photo was taken from my cell phone but it’s not too bad! I made it black and white to accentuate the simplicity of the snow. I hope you can embiggen it to see how gorgeous the snow is!

 

I used the Snowy Serenade designer paper line from BoBunny. This paper is truly too stunning to cover it up much. And, it looks very peaceful to me.

Please go and visit the other design team creations to see what they’ve come up with!

TTIC #56: Your New Moon Experience

Hello Twilighters!

Today is the official day to share your scrap pages for TTIC#56: Your New Moon Experience.

Let’s see what Alison has to say:

“Happy Tuesday Twilighters! So, have you seen it? How many times??? I know some of you have gone 2 or 3 times already! Now, the most important question… Did you take pictures???? If so, then join us in making a layout of your New Moon Experience! If you didn’t, that’s ok! Scrap your ticket stubs, journal about the evening’s events, etc! Just have fun with it! Even if you haven’t scrapped before, join in! We can’t wait to see what you make and read about your time at the movie!!!”

I have seen New Moon twice now and I may go for a third. Last week, I showed you a mini scrapbook that I plan to use for my first New Moon experience.

 

If you’d like to revisit it, please feel free

I haven’t placed my pictures in it yet but will someday soon.

For this week’s project, I decided to use a similar color scheme. I replaced the black with dark brown and made it incredibly, incredibly simple.

Let’s take a look…

 

 

 

One problem I have when I scrap is remembering that my pages need to lie flat in a book. I love embellishments and fun stuff but they aren’t always practical. I also tend to over do my pages where the focus falls on my craftiness and not on my pictures. But this is not the case! LOL. Here, I’ve made an incredibly simple 6×6” layout set.

Now, I have a confession. The photo is totally thrown in. I actually did take a picture of my husband on my BlackBerry the day we went, but my Blackberry and I are in this huge New Moon style thing where BlackBerry recently told me, “It will be as if I never existed…” And BB is not kidding. I can’t answer calls, find any of my saved stuff (some of which I spent real $$ on!!!), etc. So, the picture is gone.

Instead, you get this totally candid no makeup snap shot of me today after I went and had my hair did (I’ve always wanted to say that…). I really like the lady who does my hair…she’s a total sweetheart, she’s good, and her boyfriend just proposed to her!! WHOOT! Now I need to make her something… but I digress. We chatted a little about New Moon today so this picture kind of counts…right??

I used BoBunny Almond Double Dot and St. Nick Sleigh paper. The brown is Bazzill Bling. The letters are also from BoBunny and I sponged the edges with Bravo Burgandy ink from SU! All of the writing is done in a Garnet Spica pen.

 

I’m not sure if you can see the sparkle from this picture or not but you might want to click it to make it larger and try.

Ok…now it’s your turn! Head over to Twilight Tuesday and leave your link in Mr. Linky so we can see your creation!!!

Be sure to check out the rest of the design team’s awesome creations too!!

I get to share my project with you today! I made a 6×6” layout to be used when the future Breaking Dawn movie is released.

 

 

 

I colored the image with my Copics. The paper came from my friends Eve, and Julie.

 

 

 

 

I thought I’d show you the different levels in this layout.

The pawn and “romantic” are both popped up with dimensionals.

Tomorrow, I will be sitting out of the normally scheduled Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge. Instead, later in the week I’ll be bringing you a very special blog post on TTIC that will positively WOW you!

 

Coming up, black ink on Stampin’ Up! Whisper White paper…

I have decided to revisit TTIC #33, New Moon Quotes from last week. New Moon is my absolute favorite. Well. Midnight Sun could be if it were finished…and Twilight is pretty awesome…you get the picture. This is just splitting hairs.

So, I really wanted to revisit this challenge. New Moon had the most poignant quotes of the entire saga.  There are so many it’s hard to have a favorite…kind of like choosing which book in the saga is my favorite!

I made this super simple, albeit elegant, 6×6” scrap page. I used this gorgeous paper that Julie sent me awhile back. I’ve been saving it for something special. It’s really hard for me to do too much when I have such beautiful paper. I want the paper displayed!! So, I always keep these designs simple.

My very favorite quote is written here:

“When I told you that I didn’t want you, it was the blackest kind of blasphemy.” Edward Cullen, New Moon.
