Wayne County's Glass Layout for Stick It Down challenge

Hello and welcome  :) Today is Stick It Down's double page layout sketch and this month we have a fun sponsor over at Stick It Down too:

Handipaper is a digital craft store, where you will find printables, clipart sets and a wide variety of digital cutting files for scrapbookers, cardmakers and DIY lovers.

 We have a fun sketch this month to play with:
 This is what I created with the sketch:
 I've been scrapping a fun day trip this past week and this was one of the cool exhibits at the museum. Using both my current counterfeit kit: Spring Cleaning and last month's counterfeit kit: Backyard Oasis (the floral paper) plus 14 items from my BASHket made for a fun layout.
 The left side I used 2 photos for the large photo, I almost always play with 4x6 photos so for me this is the easiest way to do the large photos when the sketch call for it :) the journaling block was a fussy cut out piece from a cut apart that is in my current kit. Added some fun pieces for my BASHket too.
The right side has 3 photos as I took a photo oh the sign and used that for my title. more cut aparts and pieces from my BASHket. This layout is part of my Honesdale, PA Roadtrip.
Thank you for stopping by today to see what I'm up to in my little corner of the world. I look forward to seeing what you create with this fun sketch over at Stick It Down challenge blog

CKC - March Kit Reveal - Backyard Oasis


There it is! March is here! Thank goodness to warmer weather too :) March is a month I enjoy cause I know Spring is on it's way and that means Bird migration is on it's way too and I do enjoy to see the more colorful birds of Spring this time of the year.

“Every bird, every tree, every flower reminds me what a blessing and privilege it is just to be alive.” 

 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 Tara's blog, if not there is a complete blog hop list at the end on this post. Our hostess this month is Lori and she chose a wonderful inspirational this kit this month for us to be inspired by:
"I have picked Citrus Twist's February 2020 Scrapbooking Add-on kit for our inspiration kit. We have had a string of cloudy, dreary, rainy, snowy days around here, and that paired with the fact that the first day of spring is in March here in the Northern Hemisphere had me looking for a bright and springy kit.

Citrus Twist Kits also has a Life Crafted kit. I know I will be drawing inspiration from it, as well.

I have asked the wonderfully talented Julie Jeavons to be our guest designer and she has accepted. I always love to see her beautiful work when she shares with us in our Facebook community. 
 
My kit I affectionately call it Backyard Oasis 
When I think Spring I think of time out back relaxing and taking in the new growth of the year, we're seeing geese coming back to the area, deer coming in eating fresh winter cover crop in the garden and the crocus are peeking out with daffodils about ready to burst
 I was mostly inspired by the scrapbooking add-on kit for my layout, but wanted to add project life cards in too. My paper choices:
 I really like the florals in thei inspirationa and love the salmon and coral in the mix together so brought in some CTMH Charlotte that I want to get use up and out of my stash. So the project life cards came from there and from PL Midnight edition too wanting more of that mustardy yellow that was in the kit. Found the one bird paper I liked that went well with the rest of the papers and the night sky papers for the fun of looking up at the stars at night. 
The Alphas I added to the kit:
There is the one in the front I would like to get used up this month :) Lots of titles coming from the gold sticker sheet. That is it for me a small kit this time around, but I'm bring over what I have left from last month's kit too. Now off you got to see what the fabulous Tracey has been inspired by this kit.
