More LOAD layouts

Sorry--I'm behind getting these posted BUT I am caught up on all the challenges through today at Personal Scrapper. Hooray! These are a few of my favorites from the past week.

Lynette challenged us to create a layout using a keepsake or memorabilia. I started a different layout for this challenge but couldn't find the right spot for the keepsake. Then I remembered that I had Merek's lock of hair and decided to scrap that instead. The products on this page are a little bit of things from here and there in bags around my scrap area.

This layout was created actually for two challenges. One of them being the LOAD challenge for June 21st--scrap something related to Father's Day and it needed to include pink (notice the princess picture in the top R corner hanging on the closet door?). The other challenge was Challenge #2 over at A La Carte. I started with three of the menu items but ended up using all six. :) I love how this LO turned out.
Janine challenged us to do a Before/After layout. This was probably the hardest challenge for me to come up with something. Since yesterday was the girls last day of school, I snapped a picture of them before they got on the bus and paired it with a photo from their first day of school this year. I used a sketch from the July'09 CK magazine.

Sheila challenged us to make a layout inspired by the colors of our toothbrushes! Now that is interesting! My toothbrush is white and red. I've had these Kaiser Craft papers sitting on my file cabinet behind my desk for almost a year and am so glad to have finally used them.
I cannot believe June is almost over. I'm lovin' the layout a day challenges--lots of pages and cards done this month!
