1st Grade

 We've got a new sketch up at Sketches in Thyme today. We have a new one every week and we'd love for you to come play along with us.

Here is my take on this weeks sketch. I decided to turn it on it's side.

Here's the sketch

I don't scrap many 5x7 photos so this sketch threw me at first. Then I remembered I had some school pics of my granddaughters but of course they were portraits and not landscapes so I decided to turn the sketch to make it work. The schoolhouse, Back 2 School and title were all cut with my Cricut and I was able to use up some scraps too.

Fall Colors

I've got a new challenge up over at Cookin' Up Creations today.  Our theme this month is Scooby Doo, Where are You? So for my challenge I used a photo from a trip to West Virginia for the Where are You part and The Scooby Doo twist is to use the 60’s colors you see in the characters clothes...like harvest gold, burnt orange and avocado green. Remember those?

I started with a tan piece of cardstock and added the splats using some Lindy's Gang Starburst and then inked around the edges with som Crackling Campfire Distress Oxide. Then matted the photo with all the colors and popped it up using some corrugated green paper. The die cuts were all pieced together and again I used some Lindy's Gang Starburst and sprays in Cocoa Bean to give them a fall look.

Hollywood Studios

 I've got a new challenge up at Cookin' Up Creations today. Our theme this month is Scooby Doo, Where are You? So for my challenge I used a photo from a trip to Disney World for the Where are You part and the twist is to use a group photo. The twist comes from always seeing group photos of all the Scooby Doo characters. 

So come join us all month long in February as we challenge YOU to complete layouts about "Places You've Been" focusing on the "where" ...with a Scooby Doo & Gang Twist!

Valentine Card

 We've got a new card sketch up at Atlantic Hearts Sketches today. This week's sketch is perfect for a Valentine's Day card.

Here's the sketch

I started with a cream colored card base and then used a script stamp with Versamark ink for the red background. The tag was cut from the same cardstock as the base and I added a heart embossed piece on top and punched a small bow. The die cut is from the Photoplay Be Mine Collection and then I added some gold glitter Nuvo Drops.
