The Design Team have put together some great submissions,

A Right Royal 'Do'

Also attached is my submission for February's inspiration poster 'Valentine's Day'. I'm afraid it's another literal lift from me!! I wanted to use a romantic theme & struggled to think of one where I had enough photo's...& then I remembered the garden party a friend held last year to commemorate both her own silver wedding anniversary & the Royal Wedding! Held on the afternoon of April 29th in her own garden, the sun shone & a good time was had by all!!!  I have used all three criteria...Two Hearts...A black background...& actually used twelve small pictures!!
 
Thanks Shazza for the inspiration to get another memory scrapped!!
 
Blessings
Sandi :)

We have a layout from Karen Williams

Visit

This LO uses photos from our recent visit to see my sister and her new baby- my three were desperate to have a hold and were crowding round a screaming baby trying to get a cuddle!

I had run out of black card so I had to use the back of a page I started a long time ago but never finished! so that's one of the criteria- I printed out 10 tiny pictures as a contact sheet and cut them up to make a pattern with them and then hand cut a couple of hearts in the right colour

Valentines Day 2011

Hi Shazza!!

Just wanted to send in my layout for the Valentine's Day poster challenge.  Fun poster with so many options!  I chose lots of photos from last year's Valentine's Day at my home.  I really enjoy celebrating the holiday!  :)  My layout is titled, 'Valentine's Day 2011'. 

Thanks!!

Curiouser and Curiouser

I thought we might be inundated with love and romance this month on FS2S so I’ve taken a different tack on this challenge.  I’ve used the squared block design and the bottom writing position from the poster and obviously the black background.  I did manage to squeeze in the heart criteria – pretty pleased how it all came together.

All the best,

Jane

Game On

I've completed my submission for February today.

I had a lot of photos from my son's sport birthday party in April 2011. It was soccer and dodge ball that they played at an indoor arena. All the boys had a great time and I took lots of action shots. This was a great way to use them up.  I have 10 small photos and one bit bigger one. I've used a soccer ball background with a large piece of black cardstock as well. The hearts are in between the sticker with the word sport repeated on it. Mark likes the page, so that's a win.

Cheers,

Dale

Here is Debi Clarks submission....

Love, Love Love Christmas

Ah it's the love month, lovely! And so I have used 

unscrapped Christmas photos with my page titled 'Love, 

Love, Love Christmas'.  I have used black cardstock, 

a mauve stitched heart, purple stamped hearts, 16 tiny 

photos that I have adhered in a Christmas tree shape 

with pressies underneath as well as pink alphas & 

embellies.
I think we will have lots of gals join us this month, with 

such a fab challenge.
 
Hugs, Debi

Getting to know our Movie Extra.......

Nicky Normandale

Hi, my name is Nicky Normandale.

I live in Adelaide, South Australia with my darling boyfriend Shannon. No children or pets for us as we aren't very good at keeping fish alive so decided it would just be the two of us. I am a proud Aunt of 6 nephews and a very gorgeous niece who is my favourite person to scrap about.

I am not a Design Team member for anyone yet but am hoping that 2012 will be my lucky year and that i'll be welcomed into a DT soon (hint hint Shazza!). I am very honoured to be the Guest Design Team member for From Screen 2 Scrap for the month of January! I was pretty overwhelmed when I got the email as it meant I was one step closer to my dream of being a DT member for one of the many inspirational blogs that I follow.

I first started scrapping almost 2 years ago now... My sister had a kit that she'd put together and I borrowed it for a few weeks to see what this scrapbooking thing was all about. When I went to return it I told her how hooked I was and that I planned to buy the basics and go to some classes so I too could learn about all the magic that people can create. I was so excited when she said 'Keep it all then, I don't use it so you may as well'. Since then I have been to many classes and learnt so many techniques. And i've gone from a shopping bag full of bits and pieces to a whole room for me to scrap in! I love every moment that I get to spend playing in my room and wish I didn't have to work so I could be in there all day.....

I scrap because I love capturing the story behind each photo and so that I can tell our story as a family as to what we got up to in our lives. I want our future family to flick through my albums in 100+ years and see what we got up to and perhaps laugh at our daggy hairstyles, clothing and vintage cars, furniture, etc. I tell the story about anything whether it be a special occassion or just every day life, mostly cherished moments. I love to sit down and look through my albums to remember those beautiful moments and to see how much i've evolved as a scrapper.

I don't really have a style of my own. I like to try anything and adapt with each project. I follow artists like Teresa Collins, Donna Salazar and Tim Hotlz with passion (perhaps it could be borderline stalking!) and am truly inspired by the products and projects that Kaisercraft create - they are also the reason why I started scrapping, a few clicks on their blog and I was hooked! I love all types of scrapping whether it be making layouts, cards, OTP items and I like to get my Zutter out and make my own books now and then too!

I am so happy to be the Guest Designer for From Screen 2 Scrap during January, thanks so much Shazza for giving me the opportunity!

Keep creating that magic!

Shazza Bishop - Miracle on 12th Street

Journaling says......

Our new home was nearing the finishing stages in 2003...But Christmas was looming!! I thought it would be a miracle if we could move in before Christmas. We finally got the keys on the 17th December and moved in that very day... It really was a miracle!

Alanna's submission for the month....

Alanna Nelson - Miracle on 1st Street

Hello,

Here's my sub for the January challenge - Miracle on 34th Street.

Brown, yellow and orange hues - check. I used kraft cardstock as my "brown", and some orange glimmer mist and ink and then some yellow thickers to top it all off.
Santa hat - check. My handmade bottlecap in the top left features a Santa Claus with hat.
Title as per movie posted - check :)

Thanks,

Alanna

Here is Mary's Submission...

Mary Steinmetz - Miracle on 2245 Street

Hi Shazza,

Here is my submission for Jan. I found this very hard to do, especially those colors. It took me a long time to figure out what I wanted to do. So I thought , about the birth of Jennifer, what a miracle she was. This is me 3 hours after giving birth.

Here is Karen's Jan sub.....

Karen Williams - Miracle on the E40

Hi Shazza

here is my entry for the January challenge- Miracle on 34th street.

I have the colour scheme and I hand cut a tiny little Santa flying in the corner. I ahve to admit I changed the title a tiny bit- I've called it miracle on the E40- that is not my street or my house number but last Christmas was almost a disaster- we had a massive snow fall a few days before we were due to drive back to the UK. it was so bad that huge lorries were skidding along my street _- a major trunk road- and if the stopped they just couldn't get going again. it was touch and go whether we were going to leave or not. In the end we decided to go for it and make an overnight stop in Calais on the way. we had to dig the car out and push it to get it out of the snow but once we were out of our town we were on the way and absolutely fine! So this is called Miracle on the E40 because for me it was a miracle we got to Calais- this photo was taken in our overnight hotel- a bit spartan but it was a real relief to get there! the E40 is the european motorway going past Calais in case you were wondering

hope this is OK

Here is Deb Clarks submission.....

Debi Clark - Miracle at 56

Wow Shazza,
 
Here we are in the New Year....time is just whizzing away!
 
This was a great movie poster to use as inspiration, 

I do love that vintage look.
 
I believe I have used all the criteria in my LO of my 

new home - browns, yellows & orange tones, a little 

red Santa, & my title is Miracle at 56. It is a 

miracle that we managed to be able to buy such a lovely 

home, so this inspiration suited me down to the ground. 

Plus I had to add that pop of red in to...

my signature colour!
 
Hope we see a lot of players this month, as they are 

such fun & we have great prizes too!
 
Cheers, Deb Clark.

Sandi's submission for the month....

Sandi Robinson -Miracle @ # 14

Attached is my January sub for the 'Miracle On 34th Street'...this one stumped me for a bit!!  How to incorporate our house number into the title?  Santa on a brown/yellow/orange colour scheme?  But I had a light bulb moment & remembered a photo I had made up on the 'Capture The Magic' website, placing Santa on our landing, convincingly about to fill our stockings with gifts!  Even more handy was that the walls on the landing are an ochre colour & in the lamplight the whole seen had a yellow hue!  So, all three criteria met (I hope that Santa in the photo counts as being on the page?!) & I even managed to incorporate a generous excerpt from my favourite Christmas poem ''twas the night before Christmas'.
 
Thanks for another challenging poster Shazza....Happy New Year!!
 
Sandi xx :)

Here is Jane's sub....

Jane Howden - Santa Swings Past #37

Hi Shazza,

Gosh 2012 already – how did that happen? 

Our local rural fire service go around the streets of our suburb every Christmas eve spreading Christmas cheer (and handfuls of lollies) to the local children.  It’s become a bit of a tradition to stand out the front of our house and wave and clap as he goes past (and then do a mad scramble for the scattered sweets left on the front lawn).  I’ve used some yellow Christmas paper that has been in my stash for who knows how long and teamed it with some Abbey Road scraps I had in my basket which had a nice tangerine colour to them.  I brought in brown as the background cardstock and in the numbers.  My included Santa is fairly obvious :).

Looking forward to another great year on From Screen 2 Scrap.

All the best,

Jane  

Here is Dales submission for January.....

Dale Tiernan -Surfin Santa

Hi Shazza,

I've chosen to make a card for the Miracle on 34th Street poster challenge. I've used yellow cardstock as my base, like the background of the poster. I have a fun image of Santa running off to have a surf with his board. I've used an orange strip along the bottom, like the poster. My street number happens to be 20.  I noticed that there is also a 20 on the bottom centre of the poster. A lucky coincidence. So I have made a playful title to match the image which includes the number 20. I'll be interested to see what interpretations we have this month.

Kind regards,

Dale
