First Day of School LO for Sketch N Scrap challenge

 Good Morning and welcome to the 2nd sketch challenge over at Sketch N Scrap challenge blog. We have this fun sketch from Stacy for our inspiration:

I'm finally getting to scrap some of my backlog of prints I did last year :) These 3 pictures are of Emily's 1st Day of Kindergarten, wow I can't believe she's that old already to be heading to Kindergarten :) 

She's so cute! I used my current counterfeit kit Spread Your Wings and Soar (which is perfect for these pictures for my pattern paper selection and grabbed some school themed embellishments too :) I used a confetti letters stamp for Stampin Up for my bottom stamped border, certainly a fun technique to add to the layout. 

Thanks for stopping by today and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world.
I look forward to seeing what you create from this fun sketch over at Sketch N Scrap.

Together In Love LO for CKC challenge

 Hello and Good Morning :) The 1st challenge of the month over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog is pretty darn easy and as sweet as pie! So let's see what Lisa has challenged us to do....

First of all, a reminder of our inspiration kit:

 

Herzstück kit from Scrapbook Werkstatt

 

The name of our inspiration kit, Herzstück, can be translated along the lines of "the heart of something" and as this is the month of love and romance, let's take that as our inspiration.  Make a project featuring something or someone that you think of as the "heart of it". Of course, you might want to interpret this prompt as featuring hearts on your layout and everything goes round here! So, show us your very own "Herzstück"!

 

This special person has my heart, all of it! 

My husband has been part of my life now almost 28 years, we've had our ups and downs but all in all we've had a great life together. This is us on our 10th Wedding Anniversary I come across these photos the other day and thought it was perfect for this challenge and the colors of the kit matched so well with what we we're wearing too.

I used this sketch for my layout inspiration like I use my kit Spread Your Wings and Soar for my layout inspiration and with this fun prompt it was a sweet as pie! 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.

LOAD221 has begun

 LOAD221 has begun and the 1st week was a great week of scrapping :) LOAD is from the ScrapHappy.org site and was a brainchild of Lain Ehmann and has since become that responsibility of Alice Boil.

Here are the layouts I created from LOAD this 1st week:

Day1

Day 2

Day 3

Day 4

Day 5

Day 6

Day 7

All were created using a sketch, my counterfeit kits either last month (just a bit to use up yet :) or this month making sure each day I had used a scrap in some way. Then BYSS BashBowl started and the last 2 days included elements for the bowl game of this week Day 7 earned 5pts and Day 8 earned 7pts with the technique prompt :)

Thanks for stopping by today and seeing what I've been up to in mhy little corner of the world this week :)

Happy Thoughts Card for Sketch N Scrap challenge

  Good morning and welcome to the 1st card sketch over at Sketch N Scrap challenge blog. I just loved this card sketch from Stacy and used it for a lovely Happy Thoughts card.

and the card I created with it:

 

Very soft card with lots of sparkle from those gorgeous butterflies using dazzles butterflies from my current counterfeit kit and scraps from my past counterfeit kit. Added a piece of washi tape to for the sentiment to set on. 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.
