Eutermarks House LO for Sketch N Scrap challenge

Good Morning and welcome. Here we are in the middle of March already! It's been more like winter this month with snow and colder weather, but Spring is right around the corner.

We got a fun challenge over at Sketch N Scrap for the day. This sketch was created by Lori

This is the layout I created with it

Another stop on the Victorian Christmas Homes tour. Using a Simple Stories Simple Vintage Christmas Lodge collection throughout these photos of this event. So I had scraps available to play with to make the grid for part of my background and as I'm playing along with 100 day project I used a cutfile for that and playing along with Calvinball too I have a total of 37 pts for the layout.

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 - March 2023 Kit Reveal - Think Happy

Welcome to my blog and happy March! It's the 1st of the month and that means a new inspiration kit over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog, but 1st you should have arrived here from Tara's blog I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. We are thrilled to have Amanda join us as Guest Forger.

Anna is our host this month she says:

I chose March for my month to host because my son was born on March 17 (he will be 11 this year!) and so I thought it would be fun to find a kit that could be used to scrap photos of my kiddo. In other words, not too much pink and a little more green (St Patrick’s day and all that). Well then I came across the digital kits from Traci Reed designs that have the same colors and even some of the same designs as Storyteller, her physical collection designed for Cocoa Vanilla, a company from Australia(yes she’s the genius behind that popular collection). The cool thing about a digital/printable kit is that there is no limit on how much she can create and she always packs SO MUCH into her digital kits.

I also love that this collection has a very specific message of self care for mental health and body positivity which is something I’d like to focus on more going forward. 

I hope this kit inspires you to use your Storyteller stash but also to mix and match and find some other similar papers to work with the palette or style. I know, that’s kind of the point of CKC but I’m so excited to be able to select a kit this month!!

Inspiration Kit – Traci Reed Designs  – Time to Thrive Digital and Printable Kit

 

I knew it was Storyteller as soon as I seen the image. So I pulled out my Storyteller from my February kit to save back for this kit. 

Here is my kit for March:

CKC - February 2023 Kit Reveal - Sweet Serenity

 Welcome to my blog and happy Feburary! It's the 1st of the month and that means a new inspiration kit over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog, but 1st you should have arrived here from Tara's blog I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. We are thrilled to have Karen join us as Guest Forger.

Cindy is our host this month she says: I wanted a kit that did not represent all winter, snow and Valentines for this month, and could eases us into the coming months.  I picked the Cocoa Daisy February 2022 Elegance Blooms kit for the softer colors, the lighter greens, yellows, pinks, and blues. You could still do a Valentine's Page or card and even a winter or snow page. I think this kit will be very versatile for this coming month. I know it's a LOAD month which is why I'm keeping it open for you to pull from any or all of the kits for inspiration. 

 

So, here's the kit and details:

Cocoa Daisy February 2022 - Elegance Blooms Kit Elegance Blooms | Cocoa Daisy (link is all of their kits, 4 pages worth of inspiration, page 4 has downloadable prompts)

Modern Memory Keeping Kit: 

I chose inspiration from the Scrapbooking kit:

Here are a few unboxing videos of Cocoa Daisy February 2022 Elegance Blooms: (4) Elegance Blooms Live Facebook Unboxing with Christine & Mr. Daisy - YouTube

papers:

I also added an add on of a gift I received in December

I pulled in the pinks and blues from the kit with figuring I can yellows and greens with in the multicolor paper. I brought in some washi to add with the ephemera I added to the kit. it should keep me busy during LOAD too. Thanks for stopping by today and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world.
