Brazilian Pride LO

So this is my entry for the Pickleberrypop January "Pride Challenge".



All pictures are from my home State, Paraná: on the left are the "Iguaçu Falls"; the other two are pictures of the city I live in, Curitiba. In the middle, our Botanical Garden and on the far right, a few of our thousands of buildings...

Because Brazil is a very colorful country I had to go with lots of color. I have mainly used Keley Domingues and Fa Maura's amazing kit *Color Days*. This *HUGE* kit is going for $4 only! Click on the preview to go to the store:

My 9th Layout...

This LO I've created for a challenge at GoDigitalScrapbooking. I'm not really sure it "fits" the requirements, but it's done and I sorta like it! :)

The objective was to create "dominance" of an object that isn't the picture... I guess I did it. God know! I've used "Ooh La la!", from Livia's Corner. Such a delightful kit... AND it's still up for grabs at the Sunshine Studio.

My 8th layout

On this layout I used the brand new "A Little Sassy", by Stacey Towers. She's offering it at her blog right now. It's a cute, bright kit, you should snag it a.s.a.p!

And here's my cute LO (BTW, Burger King should be paying me for the voluntary advertisement with this gorgeous model! On seconds thoughts, they probably couldn't afford her, anyways... ;)

My Seventh LO

Week 2 of the SSS challenge. Actually I didn't do it as a layout challenge, it was more my way of thanking them for the nice freebie kit.

I like this one. It's "clean"! But, then again, it isn't exactly MY layout. I used a template as my foundation (Angélique's).

My Sixth layout...

There it goes, another challenge... So this LO is barely mine. The kit is "Sugared Fruit Topping" (this month's freebie kit by Sunshine Studio Scraps) and the template was from a second SSS challenge. So I just decided on which papers and pictures to use.

I'm not crazy about it, but I made it, so, "good for me". It was the first time I ever used a template. Half on PSP 12, half on Photoshop CS4. I prefer PSP 12 by far, but the clipping-thing is much simpler on Photoshop.

My Fifth Layout...

Well, this one was sort of a "speed scrap" thing, as I finished it in, like, half an hour (which is really FAST for me... ;)

Anyways, it's so cute! I used Amber's great freebie kit "Big Top" (which is still available at Stolen Moments at this time).

My Fourth Layout

This was also a GoDigitalScrapbooking challenge. The technique challenge.

All papers and elements came from the Suprise Goodie Bag provided for the challenge participants, by Helen, the challenge creator. I guess the mini kit didn't have a name... Word-art by Sliva.

Anyways, I really liked this layout. I still have a "clustering" problem. I feel like I shouldn't leave any blank space on the layout. Even though I see "clean" layouts ALL the time and I think they look cool, I still feel the urge of occupying all available space, hehe :P

My Third Layout!

So this one was for the "All About Me" challenge at goDigitalScrapbooking

Papers were a freebie from Dani Alencar (the challenge creator) and all elements came from Andrea Dickinson's great "Spring Breeze" kit.

My Second Layout!

So here's my daughter, surrounded by paper and elements by Joni Gray's freebie kit: "Christmas Star". My LO is kinda lame, but the model helps... :)

My First Layout!

This is "Giving Thanks...", a layout I put together as a teaching tool. Yes, I'm a teacher, a preschool teacher, and I wanted to explain to my 3 yo "students" some of the things we should be thankful for. I came up with mine and scrapped about them.

I mainly used "Festivity", a collab freebie kit by A Work in Progress. The word-art I got from Hileke.

Finally...
