Challenge #43: Digital Scraplift

Within the last few years digital has taken the scrapbooking world into a new realm. While I haven't tried my hand at it (yet), there are some AMAZING digi artists out there. My personal favorite is an online friend of mine--Leah. Leah creates layouts in both digital form and paper. I love her funky, yet simplistic style. Leah also has a digital shop online--Funky Playground. Make sure to stop over and check it out!

This week the Nilsa from Scrap Whispers challenges you to scraplift your favorite digital scrapbooker. I decided to scraplift one of Leah's digital layouts.

Here's Leah's layout:


And here's my take on it:


I also want to take note that this is my 100th layout of the year!!!!! I still have a lot of work cut out for me if I plan to make that 150 goal, but I'm still very excited! Whoo hoo!!!!
