Forever Us

This is from Sketchabilities challenge!  It is a great layout to work with, I really enjoyed creating a page about my partner John and I.  It is rare that I scrapbook myself and so that's another reason why this is so special! I love the Graphic 45 paper I used in the LO the designs are so classical and elegant. I used Dusty Attic laser cut chipboard, I am Roses Flowers and American Crafts Thickers 

Big REVEAL!

Hello, and welcome to a big day! Today is the first reveal of a the new team from Sketchabilitites, that I am honoured to be a part of !!!!  This DT is very exciting for me, I love these sketches and the team is a very talented group of ladies!!!!   This day also landed on the reveal day for Color-Me-Scrappy, I have been a port of that team so several months and am excited to continue on with them...So I made a different page for the CMS colour challenge however since the launch was on the same day I used the Sketchabilities sketch to do guide my layout!  So all this fun adds up to TWO layouts in this post and TWO places to go for more inspiration at the above links!!!! Have fun and enjoy all that hard work of both dedicated DT's.  OHHH Be sure to check out the sites and play along with their challenges for the fun prizes or just for fun!

SKETCHABILITIES:

I used GRaphic 45 paper, stickers and chipboard as well as I am Roses flowers and assortment of buttons and lace, all of the products int he above layout were in my kit from Scrapn' With Flair 's September kit.  It was fun to work with and I am lookign forward to playing with it.  I went so well into this beautiful layout from Sketchabilities.

COLOR-ME-SCRAPPY:

This page was fun with colour and I finally got some photos on a page from a birthday party for my daughter Sienna that was far too long ago!!!!  I used Basic Grey paper, Close to My HEart cardstock and canvas sticker, My Minds Eye brads and tags, Basic Grey embellishments and American Crafts Thickers for the title, I also used Sktech #75 from Sketchabilities!!!

Graphic 45 Box from Scrap'n With Flair

This Graphic 45 Box came in my July Kit from Scrap'n With Flair I love how it turned out.  I will admit I was a little stumped at first on what to do with the box.  That moment of challenge is why I love to be on a design teams...."I have these products in front of me..now how can I use them to make this stuff look awesome"  That is what goes through my head and usually with out real "plan" I let my creativity take over and see what I come up with.  In the words of Vicki Boutin, "sometimes happy accidents happen" but they make the best ideas!  I used mostly products from the kit with a few additions from my stash.  I also used some of the Memory Box dies I purchased from Scrap'n With Flair as well.

Inside the box is a cute accordion paper fold, and I used that to create a little mini, that when I decide who I am going  to give this to I will fill with photos and notes to that person,
I am thinking my niece Lyla might really like this!  She loves pretty things...
