Let's Get Sketchy

This page has a heritage house on it... and would you believe 

Nana (and Jack) lived there on the top floor for many years.

I took the actual photo of the house and the Newspaper clipping about 

it and this will be an amazing page to share down the road with family.

I used fun burlap, stamping, metal pieces, brads, twine, homemade flower cluster 

and corrugated cardboard accents.

 Let's Get Sketchy .. yes it's Monday and here is the new sketch and my page using it. 

Be sure to pop on over and see what the rest of the DT inspired us with.

Terrifically Thrilling Thursday

Circles.. yes circles.. we use them so often and with the

Kreaxions Circle Cutter it is so much easier. 

We are going to make a card today inspired

 by my friend Sandy at Cookin Up Creations. 

She challenges us to make this card using so many circles
 using this technique that I had to share

 and multitask my post at Just Imagine Crafts.

Here is the full card with the amazing use of circles.

The full circles I inked to help pop them. I matted it for depth and colour and added a few accents.

This card is perfect for so many occasions and you can add a sentiment

or leave as is and add proper text inside the card.

Today I am sharing a Digi called soccer kid by Morgan Fitzsimons.

I am not doing a card.. that is so standard with digis. I really love using them on layouts especially when they theme perfectly into a page.
Following the theme boys this digi is amazing on my GS's soccer page.
I copic coloured with all the gray and black tones because his team wore black and white. It also pops off the kraft paper background.
The background also is stamped and paint daubed for the rustic look.

Cute flags were made, twine added, fun metal accent, brads, corrugated accent along with a fun sticker accent and title. Chevrons are such a big thing right now so I cut and doodled on them for an accent.  I love using the white Signo pen for doodling and journaling.

Sure hope you enjoyed the blog hop and the fabulous digis we had to share with you. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

I am also sharing this with Scrap Scene WIP MONDAY.

Terrifically Thrilling Thursday

Just Imagine Crafts is the supplier of Kreaxions Punches.. 

and the fabulous Kreaxions Circle Cutter.

I use these items almost daily in one way or another.

 This great page was inspired by a few things. Memorable Seasons Challenge with Sally is 

to use 3 punches, 3 layers and 3 colours. So I used Kreaxions Punches #904, #913, #917. 

And I had fun doing the double coloured circle using the Kreaxions Circle Cutter.

The outer ring in a 2nd colour pops perfectly.

The fun sketch used is from My Scraps and More dated April 20th.

All put together it is perfect .. my colours are red, blue and yellow with lots of layers. 

 Here is the up close view of the 3 punched areas on page. Lately I love

matting them for pop and  I also outlined some 

of the punches with black Staedtler pen to accent them even more.

Scrapbook Stamp Society .. amazing digis

Scrapbook Stamp Society has amazing digitals regularly.

 This week I worked with this cute digi "Emily Rainy Day" by Heather Valentin....

Lil Ragamuffins Collection. 

 I copic coloured the digi and used Spellbinder Nestibilities to frame it.

 I then used mega layered of colour to pop it.

 A fun Kreaxions Punch #304 border, a ribbon accent

behind sentiment and the fun brads.
