Paper Issues February Challenge - Bigger is Better

Hello folks, welcome to my blog!

Another share from me of Paper Issues February Challenge called Bigger is Better

 

I love this challenge. I cut out the word Precious using my Cameo. As requested, I cut them as big as possible so it will fit on the 12x12 layout. Next I embellished the layout to my heart content and very pleased with the result.

 

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Let's Get Sketchy - June 15th Sketch

Hello crafty friends, welcome to my blog!

Today I want to share the June 15th sketch by Let's Get Sketchy.

Brenshevia always created a beautiful sketch for Let's Get Sketchy and this mid month sketch is no exception!

Here's the sketch

And here's my take

I used my stash to create this layout. I chose a paper from Crate Paper as the background. I cut a paper from Fancy Pants Design into several strips and used them as a layer underneath my photo.

I mixed several embellishments from different collections and placed them throughout my layout to my heart content. I really love the end result here!

I hope you could play along with us at Let's Get Sketchy! Happy crafting and have a wonderful day!

Let's Get Sketchy - June 1st Sketch

Hi crafty friends, welcome to my blog!

Can't believe it's June already, time do flies quickly! New month means a new sketch from Let's Get Sketchy

Here's the sketch for June 1st:

And here's my take:

 

Well, I did stash busting to create this layout. I used old collection from Dear Lizzy called Neapolitan that I've been hoarding for ages. I also used embellishment from Amy Tangerine and other Dear Lizzy collection to embellish the page. I added gold and black ink splatter here and there to complete my page. I really love how the page turned out!

I hope you like my take. Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

So I will share all the pages in my blog in several posts. This time a page created for Take 5 challenge in February.

Look at those photos of my daughter! She's so sassy :D

Paper Issues February Challenge - Polka Dot Party

Hi crafty friends, welcome to my blog!

If you follow me on Instagram I bet you know how much I love challenge and Paper Issues has plenty of challenges every month.

So I want to share my page created for Polka Dot Party challenge back in February.

Here's my take:

Don't get me wrong, I love polka dot for scrapbooking but I hate it if I have to wear it for my outfit! I have zero outfit with polka dot pattern!

Ok, back to my page. These are photos of my daughter playing silly in my brother's house. She pretended to ride the skateboard. Boy, she can't skate, she can't even ride a bicycle! Can't you believe that!!

This page is a polka dot galore. There are polka dots everywhere from the background paper to the tittle! But hey, I love the way it turned out.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Let's Get Sketchy - April 1st Sketch

Hi crafty friends, welcome to my blog.

Can't believe it's April already, boy time flies!

I have not shared my April 1st sketch challenge for Let's Get Sketchy. Here's the sketch created by Brenshevia

And here's my take

I love this sketch so much and I tried to follow it as close as possible. So I used my trustworthy silhouette cameo to cut out the diamond shape on my patterned paper of my choice. I chose a neutral one because I will back the diamond shape with colorful papers.

 

After I finished backing up all the diamond shapes. I adhered my photo and embellished the page. I didn't over embellishing the page because the diamond shapes was already busy with several other pattern papers.

 

Well, I love the way it turned out. I hope you can join the challenge at Let's Get Sketchy blog and remember you have until April 31 to link up your layout.

 

Happy crafting!
