Join us all month long as we celebrate our 3rd Annual - Mad about Sketches featuring sketches by Liz Chidester. Each daily BPS challenge will be posted this month using one of Liz's sketches by the NEW Challenge Team Members at Cookin' up Creations! Welcome aboard girls!

For those of you not familiar with Liz Chidester, then here's a little tidbit on her...

Hello, my name is Liz Chidester and I am so excited to be joining Cookin' Up Creations this month! I am a wife and mother to 4 children and I live near DC in northern Virginia. I have been scrapbooking for over 14 years now, since my oldest was born. Like many of you, scrapbooking is a big part of my life. I have been creating sketches for several years. I love that sketches give a good starting point to creating a scrapbook page even if the finished layout doesn't resemble the sketch exactly. So be sure to join us all month long as we celebrate our 3rd Annual - Mad About Sketches.

LOTW~6.26.13 Bev

 

 

So many fun Birthday layouts and lots of cards in the gallery. This month is such a fun one for challenges. I am loving the ideas. This layout of Bevs' jumps right off the page with such fun colors and spurts. I love the bright colors and the fun choice of pattern papers and the butterfly that anchors the page. Great design, great colors and such a fun layout. Thanks for sharing!!

Congrats Bev!!

 

 

 

Creation of the Week - June 19th, 2013 - Beth Camp

With Cookin' up Creations Celebrating it's 4th Birthday this month, the gallery is truly overflowing with so so many things to choose from....which is why I always dread when it's my turn to pick the layout of the week, as I want to pick them all. It's especially hard when you have to do it two weeks in a row! Seriously! This week I chose a creation rather than a layout or a card.... I chose the Birthday Hat created by Beth as it's so "fun" looking....she's always going above and beyond with the challenges that we put out there for her and always comes back with some creative things, especially with this challenge....this is Beth's third year here at Cookin' up Creations, and her third birthday hat! I have to admit...I think she out did herself this time....what do you think?

Congratulations Beth on having the "Creation" of the Week!

With Cookin' up Creations Celebrating it's 4th Birthday this month, the gallery seems to be overflowing with birthday themed creations, and so so many creations to choose from....which is why I always dread when it's my turn to pick the layout of the week, as I want to pick them all. I finally decided on this Banner on Banner card created by Wanda. I just love her color choice on this one, and it immediately caught my eye in the gallery!

Congratulations Wanda for having your layout chosen as Layout of the Week!!

LOTW - Tracy F.

This has been a wonder week for us here at Cookin' Up Creations. We're celebrating our 4th birthday and enjoying all sorts of inspiration in the gallery. That is way I chose Tracy F.'s layout as the LOTW. 

I really love how she layered the pattern papers on the bottom of her page and the brick stencil background. Then all those little texture elements make this such a fantastic layout. Thank you Tracy for sharing your work with us.

Birthday Bash Celebration #4 !!!

Can you believe it- we're 4 years old today. Amazing how fast time goes. So, of  course we're going to have a party! We would love it for all of you come.  We're planning on parting all month long.

We have plenty of challenges, games and of course goodies. We've got things started with our first challenge. It's called what else Celebration.

We also have some fun games going as well - you can find those in the forum. I know that in next few days our gallery will be filled with so much inspiration for all.

We hope to see you there!
