THE RACE {Sketch-y Friday}

Hello!

Yay!  It is REVEAL time for TEAM A over at the ScrapMuch? today!  Double page layout!! Handswaving!!!!!  I am all excited!  I just HEART double page layout sketches!

When I saw this sketch I was all excited as I "visioned" MANY pictures!  I know that you can use patterned papers for the squares!!!!  I could not because I had 23 pictures and I was able to downsize to 16 pictures.  So that was hard enough LOL!  I used 2x3 wallet size pictures and cropped some at the end off.

Laura Whitaker created this wonderful sketch.  I can see myself using it again and again in the future.  I would like to try it again but using the patterned papers and pictures as a mixture on the second page.  Thank you Laura for this awesome DOUBLE PAGE SKETCH!

Let's try this sketch out and participate over at the ScrapMuch?!  You may win a prize from a random draw for just by participating!  The deadline is November 29, 2014 at midnight.

Cheers and be sure to find time to scrap!

AT THE BEACH {Stick it Down}

Hello!!!!

 

 

Yea! It is revealing time for double page layout for Stick It Down double page team!  I have decided to do some pictures from cottage last August.  Sigh... the warm weather, for sure, have left us in Southern Ontario.  It even have started snowing.

 

When I saw Shelby's sketch, I could not wait to play with it.  Seeing that there are five photos on the sketch,  I looked through my readily organized cottage pictures.  I was able to find this set of 5 pictures.  The only problem was that they are all horizontal.  They all are wallet sized 2x3.  So that is why my layout look a bit different from the sketch even though the number of the pictures are the same.

 

I was thrilled to be able to use the bling word BEACH as title as I have had it in my stash forever.  Finally the blue shade worked well on the layout! 

 

 

Lets' have fun by playing with this awesome sketch by Shelby!  Double page layouts are FAB!!!!

Hello

 

This past weekend I had a scrapping getaway weekend.  Wonderful weekend!  I got to scrap several layouts and it SURE felt GREAT!  It was fun to spend time with two wonderful girlfriends Sharlene and Kathie.

 

I got to do a sketch and crafty challenge for Two Scrapbook Friends.  You can see the sketch below.   The crafty challenge was to have something old, new, borrowed and blue.

 

For mine, I did:

 

old: paper (the background)

new: MFT stencil

borrowed: I borrowed Sharlene's two punches to create the title

blue: patterned paper are BLUE!  So are the letterings on the cake! (wink!)

 

Keep Scrapping!

A FUZZY FRIEND {Sketch-y Friday}

Hello Everyone!

Cannot believe it is actually November!  It is ScrapMuch? Design Team A's turn to reveal their work as it is Sketch-y Friday today!  Laura Whitaker once again had provided a wonderful and fun sketch!  I was delight to play with her sketch!

I looked through some of my pictures and found some perfect pictures for this sketch but there were problems... I had more pictures that I wanted to use... so a double page layout came into my picture.  Of course I continued to used the same sketch on the other page only that I flipped it over to the side.  BINGO I was able to solve the problem.    I had two more pictures.  They were close ups that TELL you the story of what the pages were all about!  The FUZZY CATERPILLAR!  I used the pictures instead of writing so.... in total, my layout I have 8 pictures!

Ok lets share my picture of the layouts!

 

Here is a run down of our Sketch-y Friday rules.  You have until November 29th, at midnight to participate in any of November's sketch challenges, each linkup tool will remain open until that date!

If you are playing along with more than one challenge you will need to link each of them up via a separate blog post for the link up tool to work. (International participants may be required to pay some shipping fees.)  Good luck, we cannot wait to see what you create!
