Soiree LO for Sketch N Scrap Challenge

Good Morning and welcome to the middle of the month! Where I live your starting to see peeks of Spring here and there, it's nice to see nature blossoming. I've been busy revamping my scrapbook room, get so far and then hit a snag here and there, as the month progresses hopefully the room will too.

This is what I created with the sketch:

So sorry for the bad lighting, the only light I have in my room working is the ceiling light so it's casting shadows well. This is the companion layout to the one I created earlier in the month for Sketh N Scrap's facebook page.

Used my February Counterfeit kit: Pretty Purple Flutter, also there are elements on the layout for this year's Calvinball too. Thanks for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing what you create with this fun sketch over at Sketch N Scrap challenge blog

The Sky is the Limit Card for SNS card challenge

Good Morning and welcome to the 1st card challenge of the month over at Sketch N Scrap
This fun sketch was created Heather :

I needed a card for Bradley our grandson, so I thought this was a fun sketch to create him a Birthday card:

Masculine cards can be a hard to make at times :) But I think this one turned out okay.

The inside of the card with sentiment :)
I used my Feb Counterfeit Kit: Pretty Purple Flutter scraps for my card creation too. Thanks for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing what you create from this fun sketch over at Sketch N Scrap

Smile LO for Sketch N Scrap Sketch Challenge

Good Morning and welcome to the middle of the month! Wow where did that go, it's moving way to fast. We have a fantastic sketch from Heather Hall this month to play with here at Sketch N Scrap

This is what I created:

Watching birds makes me smile, I do enjoy the hobby. I used part of a border paper for my edging and then that scrap of green diagonal, plus a pretty floral for the background paper. They all came from my current counterfeit kit: Pretty Purple Flutter. I even fussy cut some of the elements on the layout from the paper I got the border strip from :)

Grandma layout for Counterfeit Kit Challenge #1

Good Morning and welcome :) The 1st challenge for Counterfeit Kit Challenge is here! for this month and Julene has challenged us for the 1st challenge of the month with:

The patterns and colours in this kit made me immediately think of my great grandmother, who always wore small dark floral dresses.

I’ve added some Liberty floral prints to the Pinterest page to maybe inspire you.

Your challenge is to scrap a page about a matriarch, past or present, in your family using a floral paper/theme.

Interesting challenge it is :) The 1st thing that came to mind was my Gram :) I remember here in floral house-dresses. She took care of us when we were young, while my parents worked. I remember being there during the week and I was blessed to have a cousin there too. Someone to play with :) So I found one photo of us together and use that to scrap and also the house that I remember Gram had before they moved in the trailer. Got a picture of the house thinking maybe 2013.

Started with the overall floral print I had in my kit and used the CTMH kit with it. Added the doily and used a doily punch too. The butterflies and buttons were in the kit but not liking the florals that I had in the kit I brought in ones that matched more with the paper.

Close up photos :) There is me with Gram I had to be about 4 years old.

The house she once had, I remember it well as my Aunt Marie lived there when Gram moved to the trailer.
Thanks for stopping by today and Can't wait to see what you create for this fun challenge over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge

My how time flies when your having scrappy fun :) The beginning of the new month brings also a new monthly kit to play with from Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog. You should have arrived to my blog from Tracey blog, if not there is a complete blog hop list at the end on this post.
This month Julene has inspired us to use this kit for our inspiration. She has chosen TRES JOLIE kit because it was different.

This mesmerizing and delicately elegant collection is filled with indigo blues, boysenberry purples, and medallion golds for creating projects that will leave you speechless. Design a mixed media panel, love-filled card, or gorgeous notebook pages filled with vintage charm and beautiful accents.

Welcome Kate Blue she's our Guest Mater Forger this month here’s a link to Kate’s blog https://kateblue.blogspot.com/ Blues Blog & My Scrappin' Fascination. It was the thought of “blue” in the kit that made me think of her.

Look at that gorgeousness! Oh my! I was drawn very quickly to the blues and purples and the florals and the butterflies, so my kit consisted of a of this in it.

This is my kit Pretty Purple Flutter:

Lots of colors, lots of textures and lots of Butterflies! I really enjoyed pulling this kit together and think I'll have a blast playing with it this month.

The papers I've chosen came from a few patter paper pads I have that I knew had butterflies in it, plus I got some Stampin Up paper and Close To My Heart paper in there too! (My goal for this year)

The alphas and words I chose, plus I need to add a gold one yet

Lovely sticker set and look the brads even match nicely, The paper mat pad looks like a great was to add more color to the kit

Found some flair, wood veneer, purple scrumptiousness in enamels and florals. Founds some butterfly die cuts

Found a bumble bee amongst my die cuts and I got a strawberry layout ready to do so I added that die cut too. Wood veneer doilies in 3 colors, wood veneer butterflies, wood buttons too. Added the floral felt and the flower die cut packs makes me think Spring is on it's way!

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you join in with us for some fun this month with this fantastic inspirational kit over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog, now off with you go and see what fun kit Laura came up with over on her Instagram page.
