Creative Scrappers | Sketch 266

Hey friends!

A new sketch went up today over at Creative Scrappers. This week's sketch is one of mine, and the girls' did amazing with it! You can find the reveal HERE.

Here is my take on it:

I used mostly the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes collection for this one. Such a pretty collection that lent itself well to this sketch.

Those bows!! So, so cute!

Lots of layers and stitching. Love the gold sequins.

That tag is amazing! It is Pink Paislee, and I used my Heidi Swapp Color Shine in gold. Love it.

Here is your sketch:

Creative Scrappers | Sketch 263

It's reveal day over at Creative Scrappers for sketch 263. I have to say that this sketch is one of my faves! I LOVE it. I love the 6x12 photo. It makes me want to scrap larger photos more. Amazing. Thanks Kristine! ;)

Here is my take:

I used the Crate Paper's Bundled Up collection. Love this one...the colors are gorgeous and I love the snowflakes with the glitter.

Creative Scrappers | Sketch 262

It's reveal day at Creative Scrappers, and today's sketch is one of mine. :)
This sketch was a lot of fun to play with. I used some of the Crate Paper: Love Notes collection.

I absolutely love the arrows. Love them. That paper is so sweet and was perfect for the background. And, those heart stickers are absolutely adorable.

Creative Scrappers | Sketch 258

Hello friends!

Are you ready for a new sketch???

Today's sketch over at Creative Scrappers is one of mine! It is pretty basic, with lots of room to play!

Here is my take:

I used the Crate Paper collection, Bundled Up, and I just love it. Such fabulous colors. The whole collection was perfect for my photos.

 These are some of my favorite Thickers ever put out. They are so fab! I love the shape, print, color, everything!

This frame is so perfect. Esp with the added stitching.

Everything in this collection is wonderful. I love this chevron print, along with all the die cuts. And those fab brads!

Creative Scrappers Sketch 251: The Ultimate View

So, so exciting that Creative Scrappers is back!! Today is the reveal for Sketch 251, and it is one, amazing reveal!! Each girl took on the sketch differently, and every, single layout is gorgeous!!

Here is my take on Creative Scrappers Sketch 251...

 I used a pretty good mix of supplies for this one, though Crate Paper is prominent. I have had some of The Pier collection for awhile and was glad to be able to put it to good use!
  

 How fun are these alpha pieces?? I mixed in some Dear Lizzy Thickers and Heidi Swapp epoxy sticker for the title, as well. I left my wood veneers bare as they complimented this collection perfectly that way!

I added in some Studio Calico sequins and these super cute cork stickers! And, yes the CP The Pier chipboard frames are as amazing in person as they seemed online!! :)

Did you notice the DIY Shop photo overlay (Crate Paper) under my photo?? If you don't want it to alter your picture, simply layer over it for a great effect!

Here is your CS Sketch 251:
