Scrapbooking catch-up

It's been MONTHS since I've had the chance to do some scrapbook layouts, and I finally had the chance to do so this week.  I used Two Scrapbook Friends Olympic Challenges they have going on over at their Forum.

This one is for the Highs and Lows challenge--use chevrons (which reflects the ups and downs the athletes face during the Games):

 Close up on my title:

 This one is for the "It's a Ringer" challenge--highlighting the Olympic Rings by using circles on our layout:

 This one is for the "True Colours" challenge--use colours of your country's flag:

This one is actually a sketch challenge that Jayne posted--it includes 3 images/panels that reflect the Olympic podium, and also includes 5 rings (or in my case--circles) and a flag:

 This one is for the "Water" challenge--Joanne's favourite sport to watch is Swimming--so she challenged us to create any layout that included water:

 I wish I had some dew drops to mimic water droplets, but the gems will do, I guess.

Hope to have some more time tonight to continue playing along--gotta get it done now before school starts back up!!

Thanks 4 your time!
