Two layouts for a challenge

The Scrapbook steals had a blog challenge on Friday so I worked on these two layouts to submit to the challenge.

The first one was for a Keeping it Real challenge. I picked this picture because it showed just how sad the homemade birthday cake turned out. As described by my daughter "Fail". I would have to agree!

The second challenge was to incorporate - Some old (pictures), something new (Echo Park Playground collection) and something blue -paper - into the layout. This was what I created.

The winners will be selected on Wednesday! Fingers crossed!
