the Lucy Folch Challenge WINNER is ...

Posted on 8:00 AM No Comments

Thanks all for the GREAT entries. As usual we had a hard time choosing and debating who is the best. Since we only have ONE pack of Lucy Folch's paper to give away, the tough decision for the FINAL ONE had to be made one way or the other.
.
{sigh}
.
So ... drum roll please, for this deserving winner!!!
..
We are captivated with (1) the combination of two very contrasting Tinkering Ink PP used here and (2) the combination of vintage stuff { did you see the vinyl record there?!? whoa! } and modern designs - I guess this goes to proof that there's NO rules in scrapbooking and when it comes to creativity, there's no boundaries.
..
Creative use of vintage such as vinyl records set against colours representing the height of the vinyl era!
.

The other thing that caused squeals of delight is how every single bit of the PP had been used! - even the paper's model/title: al fresco giardino (garden) in the journaling.
.
.
A twist of the "flip" sign reveals an interesting mini LO on it's own with exhaustive captions of all the "loves" ...
..
Congrats! JOLIE!!!
for this fun loving flippant layout of all the love ONEs in your life
{ ha ha! I see you have included yourself too! }
..

community Project: honouring WOMEN: Maria Hammon @ ETSY

and I stumbled upon M-A-G-I-C
(not Maria, me. I stumbled upon magic... and Maria's art photography is just magical.)

.
" Love to create art, scrapbook, hide behind the camera, read, spend time with my family, walk our dogs and blog! "

If I had to describe myself, I would say that my life revolves around living every day to its fullest; believing in God, being a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister of two beautiful smart young women and a friend of many wonderful, insightful and wise people.

I love many things and I am constantly finding myself learning to see beauty in life. This is perhaps why I am smitten by the art of photography...it is the perfect medium to capture life, color and beauty.

Maria Hammon
(United States)

If you can't have enough of Maria Hammon's lovely nostalgic photographic art shots and want to have one, you can. Signed copies of her prints are available in her ETSY store - Just Me Again - at very reasonable pricing.

.
Want to see more of Maria's work?
