The card I made: 

I changed it up a wee bit with the torn edge but that was about it. Fun sketch to play with for a fast easy 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.    

Bee Kind LO for a Sketch n Scrap challenge

 Bee kind as being kind to the environment is the reasoning for this title love that I can be out walking where I do and to have some great songs come up on the radio channel I listen to just makes it better. Today is the mid-sketch over at Sketch N Scrap I chose this sketch for my layout inspiration: 

Here's the layout I created:

I loved that I could use scraps for those strips plus I used 3 papers from my 100 paper pile too. Had fun playing with Some Assemblage Required sewing templates for my clusters, switching the orientation of them from what was on the sketch.

Vacation LO for a Counterfeit Kit Challenge

 Good morning and welcome to my blog. It's time for the 1st challenge of the month at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog and Christine has a fun challenge for us.

Challenge #1: Summer Soundtrack

Create a layout inspired by a song that reminds you of summer.

Challenge Requirements:

• Include the title of a song somewhere on your page.
• Use at least 3 bold or bright colors.
• Add something that represents movement (waves, sun rays, flowing banners, splatters, stitching, etc.).

When I think about summer, I immediately think about music. Certain songs can instantly transport me to a specific place or memory:  a family road trip, a day at the lake, a favorite vacation, a concert, or even a simple moment spent with friends and family.

That's the magic of music. It becomes part of our stories.

For this challenge, I want you to think about the songs that make you smile when they come on the radio. Maybe it's a classic summer anthem, a song that played during a special vacation, or a tune that reminds you of someone you love. Use that memory as the inspiration for your layout.

Anything by the Go-Gos brings a smile to my face so it was an easy choice to use one of their songs for this challenge and Vacation from 1982 was the right choice for this layout: 

For my inspiration I'm playing along with Off the Board this month a fun hop that Crystal Barrett came up with for us to use our pins on Pinterest. So today is Sunday and that is Sketch day so this is the sketch I chose for my inspiration 

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.
