Grad 2015 - ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday July 24 (277/365)

Good morning!!! it is friday and you know what that means. . .SKETCH-Y friday with the ScrapMuch? Team. Here is mine:

Here is this week's sketch, I stayed fairly true to the sketch:

To create the floral circles I used my silhouette and sketch pens and then coloured the flowers and vines with smooch accent inks, distress inks as water colours and liquid pearls. I am so happy with the way this one turned out!!!

hope you can play along this month, you have until July 29th to link up your projecct for a chance at a wonderful prize: http://shopscrapmuch.blogspot.ca/2015/07/july-24-2015-sketch-y-friday-with-team-b.html

Happy Birthday - Sketch N Scrap #5

next up is a card I made for a birthday party we attended last weekend for one of my son's friends:

I used Sketch~n~Scrap #53 as my inspiration:

I did this card a couple of times and still am not happy with it as the recipient is a two year old boy who loves horses. . .but I couldn't get it to look more child-like but gave it to him anyways and he loved it!!!!

Hope you can play along this month with sketch n scrap: http://sketchnscrap.blogspot.com

some kind of wonderful (274/365)

next up is a fun layout I made of my aunt at our family reunion a few summers back. I was inspired by PCC's Magazine monday week #108 and 123 Challenge. First up my layout:


This month's 123 challenge was to use fluros (colours), kind (in title), and ribbon (the watermelon is ribbon): http://123-challenge-blog.blogspot.com.au/2015/07/123-challenge-july-2015-design-team.html

This week's PaperCrafter's Corner Magazine Monday Week 108 inspiration: http://papercrafterscorner.com/blog/papercrafting-challenge-magazine-mondays-week-108/
Papercrafting Challenge: Magazine Mondays - Week 108 Inspiration Piece (image)

I was inspired by the bright colours and when i first looked at the cut up fruit on the left hand side I saw watermelon (i now get that they are watermelon) as well as the waves along the side (which is why i used stripes of paper behind my photo.

peacock (273/365)

next up was a fun (yet challenging) layout i did. Scrapbook challenges is doing a july spelling bee challenge where you have to use the elements from the following list to spell out your hometown: http://scrapbookchallenges.com/july-spelling-bee-challenge/
0715_sbcspellbee

Fortunately, they have a 10 letter limit so my home town (port alberni) doesn't qualify so instead I used ALBERNI:

A(rrow) - papers
L (ace) - top left corner
B (utton) - used 6
E (nvelope) - behind the photos
R (ub on) - top right corner the purple flourish is a rub on by fancy pants
N (eon) - used neon green, neon orange, and neon blue
I (nk splatts) - background

the current sketch from stuck sketches worked perfectly for this challenge: http://stucksketches.blogspot.ca/2015/07/july-15-2015-sketch-challenge.html


Thank you for stopping by and for your wonderful comments, hope you can play along with Scrapbook Challenges and Stuck?! sketchs this month :)
