The card I made: 

Fun sketch to play with for a fast easy card. Used a scrap and some fun stickers for a very flat card.

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.    

Happy Hello LO for a Sketch n Scrap challenge

Welcome to my blog, today's layout is from a self-guided walk I did in 2023 of Milton, PA.Today is the mid-sketch over at Sketch N Scrap, a throwback sketch, I chose this sketch for my layout inspiration: 

I love the simplicity of this sketch for the photos I chose of a garden I saw there in downtown Milton. 

Using my current counterfeit kit for the layout too, lots of 49 & Market Nature's Haven used here. This garden was just the sweetest touch to the downtown area, a nice spot to sit and relax. 

 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 - August 2026 Kit Reveal - Sweet and Juicy

 Hello August! Wow summer just flew by! and so is the year. We have a great kit inspiration choice from Master Forger Amanda this month. I'm following Ryann on the hop this month and excited to see what she put together for her kit. To see the hoppers just check the end of the post. Our guest Master Forger this month is Sarah R, who participates often in our community so check out our Facebook page to see what she pulled together. So here we go: 

 Amanda is our Master Forger host this month, and I think you're going to love her chosen inspiration kit. For August she choose a kit from a UK company called Crafty Templates, and their May/June kit have lots of summertime, fresh fruit fun, with some great tags, some sequence and some great mixed media goodies!

So much bright colors with this kit and all those fruits had me thinking what to pull and I came up this. Here is my kit for August:

Sweet and Juicy

So I knew I had Nature's Haven from 49&Market which had a bunch of strawberries in it so that was my first choice for this inspiration and I mashed that up with Kaleidoscope for the other brighter colors in the inspiration kit that I was missing. 

The papers from the 2 collections combine well. 

I grabbed an older cutfile collection for this month's scrapping and speaking of cutfiles there will be others coming into play as it's 31 days of cutfiles with MK and Janet.

The checked tissue paper, the watermelon slice and bugs plus the 2x2s also came in that cutfile kit. 

I didn't have the pompom ribbon, but I did grab this ribbon and trim that I felt suited the theme of the kit well. 

I want to make a dent in this chipboard this month too. Thanks for stopping by, I'm last on the list so if you haven't catched any of the other hoppers check on the list below. Happy Scrapping!

Now it's time to see how everyone else interpreted this month's inspiration. Be sure to visit each stop on the hop and leave some love along the way.
