Creative Scrappers Sketch #122

Happy Tuesday everyone!  I found some crafty time this evening and created this LO for the Creative Scrappers Sketch #122 challenge.  I pulled out just the picture part since this LO is for an 8X8 album.  I've hidden my journaling behind the photo mat!  The paper is MME and CM.  The flowers are fromPrima.  I cut the swirly doodle with my Slice (I just love this thing!)!  This LO is for my Faithbook....as have the last 2 LO's been.  Thanks for looking!

Fall Colors and a Sweet Sketch

Happy Monday! I know, I know....but we ARE one day closer to Friday!! Today I played around with two challenges together; Pollycraft and The Sweet Stop. The Pollycraft challenge was to use fall colors, and even though mine aren't the very typical fall colors, I think it definitely has a fall feel. I used this week's Sweet Stop Sketch (SSS73)! The image is Felicity Swing from Pollycraft. She is too cute! Let me know what you think!


{Supplies}

Colors: Copic
Paper: MME
Misc.: flowers - Prima and Kaiser, Ribbon - stash, bling - Kaiser

I2S Sketch Challenge

I am so loving the new Inspired to Scrap site! Great friends and awesome inspiration! What more could a scrappin' girl ask for?? The latest sketch challenge came from Mrs. Stacey and I just love it.



Here's my take on the sketch. This page is going into my new album....which is part of that secret I was talking about last week!!! Keep your eyes open for my announcement later this week! This page was created using BG Offbeat! Let me know if you like it!!!

Stamp, Scrap & Doodle Saturday Challenge and DT CALL

Happy Saturday! First, we are excited to announce our DT CALL at Stamp, Scrap & Doodle. Please check out the details HERE. We hope you give it a try!!!

This week's challenge is a Thank You project. Our fearless leader, Regina, is offering up this great prize for the winner!

I created my card with inspiration from one of Angie Kennedy's wonderful videos on You Tube! She is awesome and I get so inspired by videos! All I used was a little cardstock from my stash, a rub-on from Kaiser, a piece of ribbon, and bling from Glitz! I cut the scallop circle using my Slice and then punched the circle out of the middle. I used the rub-on on that circle and popped it up using dimensionals on the inside of the card. Super easy! I embossed the background cardstock with my cuttlebug. Simple and clean! I really like it!


So, come on over and join us at SSDS! We can't wait to see what you create!

Twisted Sketch #065 and a Secret?

I've got a secret and I'm not going to tell.....yet!!! This layout is the beginning of my secret!!! I used Sketch #065 from Twisted Sketches. The twist was to use metal anyway, anyhow. I added a little metal word (faith) and I think that the brads should count too!!! The paper is Creative Memories and the letters are Thickers (of course!). I used a lot of chalk to add color to all the white. The little tag coming out of the top of the picture is hidden journaling. I would add it here but then I would be giving my secret away and well, you are just going to have to wait. I can tell you that there will be some blog candy involved and other exciting news! Please stay tuned. In the mean time check out my layout for Twisted Sketches!

P.S. I still don't have my beloved Photoshop so please forgive the quality of the photo! It makes me sad! :(
