Nuts About Sketches- Week 296

This week I got to play a bit with some of my older stash of papers and put together my layout in under an hour!

 The background is actually grey and then I picked up the blues and yellows from the blanket as the accent colours.  Also added in stitching - used my new WeR SewEasy stitching tool... super easy to make the holes and also a whole lot quicker! I added two photos in the place of one long one... gives the same effect.

Again this week there are some super layouts to see on the blog.

Nuts About Sketches - Week 295

I did this page to match the last one so that they would almost form a double in my album. Also rotated it to better fit the look and feel of the "double" page effect... I know you will need to imagine it for now (hehe!)

There are some more pages to see on the blog.

Nuts About Sketches - Week 294

Just doing some major catch up posts from the last few weeks... phew it has been hectic.

For my layout I replaced the big photo with two smaller ones.  Had fun adding some flowers and bling too.

Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch 372

This is my last layout for Scrapbook Challenges - I've decided to step down as of the end of November.  It's been a great two years of serving on this team and I will miss it, but work is just getting in the way at the moment and I need to scale down some commitments.

So I made a quick page using patterned paper to match the sketch...

It's been a busy week this past one, with both mine and Aaron's birthdays plus exams for Aaron.  Thankfully I managed to get in a few hours to do some sewing and scrapping.

Nuts About Sketches - Week 290

This week's sketch is for a single page, but I had toooooooo many photos and decided to stretch the sketch over two pages.

I also did a technique using alcohol inks on the rooster and ducks to add a little bit of extra interest.
