Thank You card for a Sketch N Scrap challenge

Hello and welcome :) Happy 1st day of Summer and it sure has been feeling like Summer this week with temps in the 90s.

Welcome to the 2nd card sketch of March over at Sketch N Scrap challenge blog. A fantastic sketch from Lori

This was a fun card to create using lots of flowers that were in my Counterfeit kit Crusin"
I needed to send a Thank You card to a dear friend and created this one. The puffy dots are perfect for mailing too as is that puffy frame.
Thanks for stopping by today to see what I created and can't wait to see what you create from this cool sketch over at Sketch N Scrap blog.

Royal Promenade LO for a Counterfeit Kit Challenge

Good morning and welcome to the blog. Today is sketch day challenge over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog. Laurie is in charge this month and this is her challenge:

 It's time for challenge #2. This month's Inspiration kit was full of bright summery colors. I want you to create a layout bursting with color, using vibrant hues and playful patterns to express joy and creativity. Try starting with a bold background paper, then add contrasting bright colors in various patterns. 


 I
used bright colors from my kit for my layout to emphasis the party atmosphere of boarding the ship. Definitely not my style so it certainly challenges me to use those types of colors and the bright ballons in the pictures helped me with the layout. Thank you for stopping by today and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world. I hope you join us over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog for this fun challenge.

Central Park Deck 8 LO for Sketch N Scrap challenge

Good Morning and welcome. Here we are in the middle of June, we have been having some wet weather, but now it's starting to warm up well for the 1st day of Summer coming soon. We got a fun challenge layout over at Sketch N Scrap for the day. This sketch was created by Lori 

 

This one is so cool and so easy to play with too :) This is the layout I created with the sketch:


This was my favorite deck on the ship I enjoyed walking through the park quite often, usually either getting a coffee in the afternoon or heading to the stateroom. This view is from deck 16 when I was headed to the Windjammer for breakfast I get pics of it. Used my current counterfeit kit for my layout and I pulled in some wood veneer from my stash for the my clusters.

Thanks for stopping by today to see what I created and can't wait to see what you create from this cool sketch over at Sketch N Scrap blog.

CKC - June 2024 Kit Reveal - Crusin'

Welcome to my blog and the 1st of June! 1st of the month means it's time for a new inspiration for us over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge kit to challenge us to look through our own stash and choose a kit to play with. 1st you should have arrived here from Julene's Blog I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. We are thrilled to have Mel Walkden join us as Guest Forger, I know her from her beautiful creations and being facebook friends 

Our host this month is Master Forger Laurie she says:I am really excited to be your host this month.

 For this month's inspiration kit, I have chosen 49 and Market's Vintage Artistry Sunburst!. I chose this kit because June marks the beginning of summer for us here in the States and it is bursting with color, which I love and hope you do too.

Here's a look at what we have to work with.

 




 I was blessed to hit a NSD sale and got this collection at a good price, but I choose not to add it to my kit and pull a kit from my stash. Here is my kit for June:

Crusin'

I did have a small collect of the Sunbrust collection so that is where I started my kit bringing in a bunch of Summer stuff too as well as beachy. I will be scrapping Cruise photos all month with the kit.

My papers:
