It's silly, it's crazy, it doesn't make a lot of sense. It's based on the Calvin and Hobbes comic/cartoon and their game with ever-changing rules.<br />
<br />
Here are my contributions so far:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This was my first project -- for 14 points. It was also submitted to Scrapbook Generation's crop challenge The Red Carpet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then I did a bunch of cards based on a Scrapbook Generation sketch:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
the 8 cards were worth 36 points in Calvinball. And since the wreath I used was from PI, I submitted them to the Free Cut File challenge.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then two layouts from last night:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vrDNdBZB-vY/XINXEMo1hLI/AAAAAAAABOo/SE4tnTEGLmk7JCK5cJR9N9SkV5LBRgVJACEwYBhgL/s1600/20190308_155010.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="798" data-original-width="802" height="318" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vrDNdBZB-vY/XINXEMo1hLI/AAAAAAAABOo/SE4tnTEGLmk7JCK5cJR9N9SkV5LBRgVJACEwYBhgL/s320/20190308_155010.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-u2XxxOiK0ts/XINXD3dY5sI/AAAAAAAABO0/cYk603tpqc8v9LS2dEpM4uo2v009O8E8gCEwYBhgL/s1600/20190308_154949.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="740" data-original-width="750" height="315" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-u2XxxOiK0ts/XINXD3dY5sI/AAAAAAAABO0/cYk603tpqc8v9LS2dEpM4uo2v009O8E8gCEwYBhgL/s320/20190308_154949.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The two layouts were worth 23 points bringing me to a running total of 73 points. Hardly a winning score (3 more weeks to go, though), but I'm having fun and getting stuff done. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Rustic Christmas layout was based on a sketch/challenge over at <a href="http://scrapourstash.blogspot.com/2019/03/good-vides-only-layout-by-designer.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook" target="_blank">Scrap Our Stash</a> and I also submitted it to <a href="http://paperissues.blogspot.com/?view=magazine" target="_blank">Paper Issue</a> for the Even Your Odds challenge</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Wanna Go For a Ride was also submitted to PI for the Secret Life of Pets challenge. </div>

This was just fun. Putting away Christmas isn't fun, but by the end of the holidays, I'm ready to. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I still play along at variety of places -- like Paper Issues, Scrapbook Generation, Sketch and Scrap, Scrap and Chat. And I found a new place, Home & Scrapped on FB. </div>

And coming up in March is Calvinball! It has a new a host, as Get It Scrapped is shutting down pretty much. It will be on Scrap Happy this year. Looking forward to scrappy mayhem.</div>

Fridays are busy.<br />
<br />
So here are some layouts for other challenges: Most of these photos are from Scott and Igrid's engagement trip to Antelope Canyon. <br />
<br />
This was for a challenge from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1499810043590964/?ref=group_browse_new" target="_blank">Paper Issues</a> and an Old Stuff Challenge at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1824207464542411/?ref=group_browse_new" target="_blank">Scrap N Chat</a>:<br />

<br />
This one is some sorta "left over photos" from their engagement trip -- and again a mood board challenge at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1499810043590964/?ref=group_browse_new" target="_blank">PI </a>and a color challenge (purple, green, gold for Mardi Gras) at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1824207464542411/?ref=group_browse_new" target="_blank">Scrap N Chat</a><br />

These two pages go together but were for separate challenges.

So, I'm late to the Calvinball party, missed the Scrapbook Generations online crop (but doing some of the challenges to squeak in before the deadline) and basically running behind on all things scrappy. But I'm happy with these first three post-flu creations:<br />

Sketches</a> . My layout is based on the sketch given in both groups. Love these pics of Southpaw from Christmas -- he loves his rawhides. (And if you're new to our family, yes, he only has 3 legs).</div>

This is for a challenge from a group of friends (we originally met -- mainly -- on the old CK message boards). It's based on a sketch by Brenda Ragsdale with the added challenge to use an old tool you haven't used in a while. I used my paper crimper (on the photo mat paper) From last Christmas.<br />
<br />
Now, to add up Calvinball points:<br />
<br />
I Knew: 8 pts<br />
One Fine Day: 7 pts<br />
Christmas Morn: pts<br />
<br />

Their flight was delayed, we were tired, but they were hungry. Ben wanted to go to Taco Bell. Seriously? Turns out the Taco Bell Cantina on the Strip has adult beverages. Ah HA!<br />

She's a high school class mate of David's and had invited us and another couple (he's also a hs classmate). Was fun. Then, trying to get photos at the end of the evening turned into chaos. :-) I've covered up part of Scott in the first pic since he was flipping me off (his usual reaction to getting his photo taken), the only reason I kept the photo was for Jill's reaction to it. THAT makes me laugh.<br />
<br />
This pic you can see Jill's reaction better, but the bottom one (without a flash) you can see the bottom photos better. I used a challenge to combine two sketches from<a href="https://scrapourstash.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> Scrap Our Stash</a> -- the 4 photo block from one sketch and the triangle corner from the other: <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And then this one -- seriously scary, right? These made me laugh too -- David is dressed for a Crazy Hair Day at Brookdale (the old folks' home where he used to work) and Scott was at the end of an on-the-road, too-long-install shift for DecorWorks/Rainbow, where he used to work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
I've been busy with work and while I've managed to continue doing something creative every day, I haven't had a time with daylight to photo, upload, edit and blog. So here are several layouts/projects for several challenges:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This layout uses a sketch from <a href="http://scrapbookgeneration.com./" target="_blank">Scrapbook Generation</a> and a color challenge (LAW 2) from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1824207464542411/" target="_blank">Scrap N Chat</a></div>

This one took me out of my comfort zone -- minamalist. This is from a new to me group, Mind the Scrap. I also used a sketch from <a href="https://ladyofthelakeslog.blogspot.com/2018/01/catching-up-ive-been-busy-with-work-and.html" target="_blank">Let's Get Sketchy</a>. I love how this one came out -- from a cold day, just chilling with my fur baby.<br />

Another one of Scott -- from a trip he made to Vegas to see Piff and Penn & Teller. He had a great time. Got to talk to Piff for quite a while about dogs -- Piff was familiar with Best Friends Sanctuary and intriqued by our adopting a dog with three legs. Another Sketch -- this one from </div>

Sketches</a> inspired me with these photos. Taken by Scott (7ish at the time), these photos: David was cut off of one, I was really out of center, and the top of the tree, had me stumped. But this sketch brought them together nicely. I like the way the diamonds at the top form a sort of leaf canopy. And that Ben Baby face makes me smile. <br />

Coit Tower (in the distance -- it was the 90's), the Navy ships in the Harbor and a photo of us (David, Ben in the stroller and I) taken by Scott (age 7 at the time). This sketch and challenge came from<a href="https://thescraproomblog.blogspot.com/2018/01/january-jumpstart-sketch-challenge-and.html" target="_blank"> The Scrap Room</a>. <br />

I used papers from a Craft Smith pad called Paradise Crush along with some really old Diane J Hook paper and Coredinations cardstock. It's been fun re-visiting this trip/vacation from so many years ago. And that baby in the stroller is now 21 (and a half)! <br />

<br />
It's only January 3, but I've got two new challenges under my belt already. I used some old photos -- the first trip to San Francisco we made with the boys. Ben was still in a stroller. :-D We were living in So Cal, but drove up and used the folks farm outside Merced as home-base for our vacation day tripping. Great times -- and here are two pages, companion pieces, inspired by two challenges from two different sites.<br />
<br />
From <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1824207464542411/?ref=group_browse_new" target="_blank">Scrap and Chat</a> comes Janet's angle/K challenge -- something straight up and down, one angled left, one angled right. Here's our trip down Lombard St. -- I thought the challenge fit the street well. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-klKpYdST2Ps/WkyHufXwhSI/AAAAAAAABF8/ofelf6ijqE8CCa0lOtwpCIK4OjPL5qRAACLcBGAs/s1600/DSC02448.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1546" data-original-width="1600" height="617" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-klKpYdST2Ps/WkyHufXwhSI/AAAAAAAABF8/ofelf6ijqE8CCa0lOtwpCIK4OjPL5qRAACLcBGAs/s640/DSC02448.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And from a new site for me, <a href="http://sketchnscrap.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Sketch n Scrap</a> , comes Cable Car Shift based on their first sketch for January. I never knew that at the end of the line, they have to turn the cable car around for it go back up the hill -- and it's all done manually -- the guys come out and push it around on this lazy Susan kind of thing in the track. Was very fun to watch. </div>

These photos are horrible, but they're from our time in DC/NoVA and I wanted to document the story. We used to go up to DC all the time on weekends -- something was always going on. We were up there one weekend for the Kite Festival -- a very blustery, cloudy Kite Festival. It's always so fun seeing all those kites in the sky. It's for challenge at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1499810043590964/?ref=bookmarks" target="_blank">Paper Issues</a> (Take 5).<br />
<br />
The next one is a photo of a coworker and me. The journaling talks about how I didn't realize how lucky I was to be working where I was. But I ended up at another school with a much less wonderful staff and director and learned the lesson. Fun times in Orange. This was another challenge at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1499810043590964/" target="_blank">PI</a><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And the last one for today -- more throw back photos (I've been having so much fun with these oldies). David and the boys at The Farm (my in-law's). For a dual challenge with a sketch from <a href="http://rochellespears.blogspot.com/2017/04/april-rewind-sketch-challenge-winners.html" target="_blank">Rochelle Spears April Rewind</a> and <a href="http://granddivasscrappyplace.blogspot.com/2017/04/april-inspiration-challenge-and-winners.html" target="_blank">Grand Diva's April Inspiration </a>Challenges.</div>

We're going through stuff in the garage and I pulled out a whole bunch of old photos. Fun, fun, scrapping military and my babies :-) Here's what I got accomplished this weekend:<br />

After Bob died, the Merced Board of Supervisors closed a meeting in his memory and recognized their mourning his death. I'll put this in a page protector so that the cover is over the outside, so it can be raised to read the resolution. And I need to dig up a photo of the folks from their 50th.</div>

Both are from 1984 -- David graduated Boot Camp in May '84, we spent 16 weeks in Memphis, then back home to CA for two weeks of school. From there it was three years at Quantico, VA. <br />

<br />
The first is a double pager from a <a href="http://letsscrapsketches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Let's Scrap</a> sketch:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Photos from a hike along the Cascade Falls trail -- from last year. It was threatening rain, with thunder and lightening, so we didn't go all the way. David and I went back this summer and hiked all the way to the falls.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's the sketch -- I moved some of the sections around a bit and played with the sizes:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are two singles -- they don't really go together. I used sketches/challenges, but for the life of me, I can't remember where. Haven't been able to submit them LOL -- probably over any way. The one on the left is photos from our drive to Mesquite -- love that antique car card. The one on the right is an old pic of my babies (now 19 and 25) with reflections in the journaling of how I miss my babies. The brownish paper repeats the phrase "Love you to the stars and back "-- so I added some stars to the black background, the clock and the heart go along with the journaling. </div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is based on the 8-1-15 sketch. They used hexagons, but I turned them into squares to look more like the dice. This was a day trip to Mesquite, NV (a border town) to gamble. We went through 3 states (UT, AZ and NV) to get there.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was based on their DT call sketch -- I loved it and it worked great for these photos of my son getting his hair cut to donate to Wigs 4 Kids. He had an audience of residents from the Assisted Living place where he worked.</div>

Yay for LOAD motivation :-)<br />
<br />
These are all from last summer -- when Ben and the boys were here -- miss them so much :-(<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
From the lava flows -- we got out of the car to see them and we all kind of stood around. Until someone started walking out on them. Watching them all reminded me of the game we used to play where the ground became hot lava and if you touched it, you died. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On the right side is lichen from the lava flows -- I was fascinated. And on the left is a butterfly that let me get so close I got awesome shots, even with my little point and shoot.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EpR1DAC9B7I/VV1_bf5SFgI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/o1UOLf-kraE/s1600/Scrapps%2B010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EpR1DAC9B7I/VV1_bf5SFgI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/o1UOLf-kraE/s320/Scrapps%2B010.JPG" width="319" /></a></div>
<br />
<div>
It's pretty busy, so I wanted to keep the embellishments simple. I made the "box flowers" from book pages. They're really simple -- someone taught us on the old CK message board. If you've never seen them or made them, here are the instructions:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Cut some circles -- you'll need 4 for each flower. I used punches in two different sizes.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Fold each circle in half and if you want to glue it down, just add adhesive to one half :</div>
