Done - 01/23/2010

Another l/o i did back in January. As you can tell i started out strong doing ALOT of layouts in january, until i started buying, buying, and buying.. LOL

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Got this double 12x12 sketch from January's PageMaps' website.

Here's my version of the sketch. :) I challenged myself to use texture and dimension on a layout w/out using dry embossing.

Dimension: used pop dots on the chipboard *hearts that i got from a swap that I hosted. I also stamped the heart w/a background stamp from SU after i heat embossed it - so while it was still hot i stamped it. (learned this techie from one of Sandy G's guest on DIY)

texture: heat embossed the hearts and the paper is embossed.

*chipboard from Miss Jenna

SAS Happy Hour -Challenge #1 1_30

Love this sketch from Got Sketch? Diggen on that name!! LOL

Challenged the ladies on SAS to use odd letters for their titles. (use those unwanted letters.. mix 'em up and make it work!!!) :)


Here's my take on the sketch.. :) I used the QVC chipboards and mix-n-matched the letters.

SAS Challenge #2 - 01/23/2010

Another sketch from Scrapsketch - great site you should visit them..

The Challenge was to "let it shine" LOL - sparkle up your page.. Use glitter, glimmer mist, stickles, rhinestones, whatever it takes to shine up your page.. LOL

Here's my take on the sketch - I used stickles on the flowers that i got from a swap that i hosted on DIY (raw chipboards) and i used rhinestones for the center of the bottom flowers and used stickles on all the flowers. I also used TH's perfect pearls used w/water to spray on the page - faux glimmer mist. :)

SAS Challenge #1 - 01/23/2010

I found this sketch on Scrapiopath Sketches - i really love it.

Here's the Sketch - Challenged the ladies on SAS to make their own mask.

Here's my version of the sketch. I used the top flourish that i got from Heather M's blog of svgs to cut that flourish. I also used the same flourish as a mask and used TH distressed tea dye ink.

SAS Challenge #10 - 01/16/2010

Here's a sketch from ScrapRoomBlueprints - i'm really loven their sketches these days..

I challenge the ladies on the SAS message board to use this sketch as a guide and to use something new, something old and something blue.

Here's my take on the sketch..

Blue: Bazzil blue cardstock from the stack of shaped papers, BG pp is blue/old and bazzill flowers,

Old: lots of old going on.

New: Embossing powder, ribbons, rhinestones.

Found this on Unscripted Sketches - I love their sketches b /c you can either use them as a card sketch or layout sketch. Challenge here was to use the sketch as a guideline and make your own embellishments.

ziggy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was hard b/c i didn't have any halloween pix (on hand) and i didn't know exactly what to do with it. I was really stumped and skipped over challenge while i went on to the next, yesterday.

I wasn't sure how i felt about this l/o and being it's only one pix i wanted it as an 8 1/2 x 11 page. I used page map's sketch. Here's the sketch i used.

Here's my take on it. using the quote *wink* - I used a chipboard painted it blue, added the ribbons behind it - it was too long at first and then trimed it. liked it much better after i trimmed it. heehee - Also, i wasn't sure about the ribbons, it felt a bit 'bizzy' but it's grown on me, since yesterday. :)
