P365 and other scrapping...

I've been having fun working on some more projects... First is my layout for week 1 of P365. I used alphas from several kits and freebies and the frames came from 247365 The Soundtrack of our lives by Traci Reed and Meghan Mullens. I had fun using all the different alphas and it fit for one of the Sweet Shoppe Designs Portfolio Challenges to use at least 8 different alphas, YAY! Anyways, here it is...
Speaking of that 247385 kit... there a some great 2-pager templates in there and I just couldn't resist using it for this next layout. I've never done a 2-pager before... it was quite fun... speaking of fun... I'm excited about the awesome new bad sewing machine kit that Traci released today... it's made for 2-pagers... I LOVE Traci's sewing machine, seriously LOVE it! Speaking of Traci, I don't think I told you all that I won a guest spot on her creative team... well, I didn't actually win but she was super nice and offered me a guest spot too because I used all 31 of the Cookies 4 Kids templates to make pages using her goodies and entered them in the contest she was running last month, I was short by 7 layouts made by a super sweet digiscrapper that I loved competing with and totally inspired me. I have to say I'm super excited and have loved being on the team this week! Traci and her creative team totally ROCK, and I've been so inspired by them and their amazing talent. So, here's the layout I did with her new bad sewing machine Wrecktangles 12x24", and one of her fun summer kits, Sunny Sorbet.
and more use of that awesome sewing machine... this is another page made for my book of me, inspired by the Sweet Shoppe Designs' portfolio challenge, doing a page that answered the question of what song would come on when I entered a room... I LOVE, like seriously LOVE, like wanna marry it, LOVE the retro papers in Traci's kit Maude N Millie (you'd think I was a stalker or something with how much I mention Traci on this blog, lol). I also used Bad Sewing Machine Fleuriffic, Lil Bits & once again Wrecktangles. If you're wondering where the floral bad sewing machine is... hint, check out the sweet border around the scalloped paper ;)
OK, and here's a layout using her new release for today, seriously GORGEOUS and perfect for sweet Moriah pics and I think I'll be using it for my Book Of Me in the following months... if you look closely you'll also notice I used that bad sewing machine Wrecktanges again. Her new kit is called Live Your Life has great elements and gorgeous papers... I just LOVE the dandelion and the doodled flowers!
OK, off to work on my Design Your Life class assignments...

Wow, some fab layouts Heather! I love your Week 1 layout and you rocked that 8 alpha challenge! How many did you wind up using? Looks like even more than eight.

@NeeNee, I used 10 alphas + 1 number set... It was fun finding all the black and white alphas I had
