Nuts about Sketches

 Check out Nuts About Sketches Blog for some great sketches. I got this one from this weeks sketch.
I used Imaginisce - Splash Dance paper and chipboard stickers as well as stickers from Hobby Lobby

Friends

Okay Ladies,
Thanks to Daph and her idea of having her friend's initial on her wall. I want to do something similar. I came up with the idea to have my friends complete a scrapbook layout of themself to put on the wall. The layout should be no bigger than 6x6 and backed with chipboard. I was hoping to get the layouts in an 'about me' style and include a picture. I want to know about you and display that in my scrapbook room. Cant wait to see everyone's page.

Scrapbook Creations Crop

 Okay Everyone, I said I would update you on what I completed at the weekend retreat. I finished 2 pay it forward items and a layout. I also started a mini album and another layout but did not finish those. I will post them later. 

So let me explain pay it forward. I posted on facebook at the beginning of the year that I would make 5 people hand made items as long as they paid it forward.

The first item created is for a friend whose scrapbook room is pink and brown. At the crop there was a little challenge to complete an item using everything in a little baggie. This consited of the two white flowers, butterfly, 3 crystal hearts, pink button, lined paper, 2 brown swirls and paper clip. I came in second for the challenge. 

I used Heidi Grace Cherrywood Ln. Paisley paper, DCWV Metallic Pink paper, White bazzil paper. Winter Woodland Cricut cart for the work 'Create'

I also used a empty roll of tape for the circle.

 This layout is of one my babies, Ebony. She loves to lay on the warm clothes when they come out of the dryer. Sometimes she even gives me the puppy dog eyes when I am putting the clothes away.
I used around the block furry friends paper. The title is Cuttin Up Cricut cart.

This is the other Pay it Forward project I completed.
This person has a scrapbook room decorated in Disney.
I used Mickey font Cricut cart for the word Scrapbooking
