Party This Way

I knew I liked the pennant stamp from the Party This Way stamp set in the catalog but now that I've been able to use it, LOVE it!

 I finally made some time to use both the sketch I posted a little while back and the Party This Way stamp set.

The tiny polka dot tea cup looks adorable at the bottom of the page.

Thanks for stopping in to take a look!

Pennant Sketch

Pennants are everywhere these days... on scrapbook pages, cards, and other paper crafts. You can even find a pennant stamp in the newest Stampin' Up catalog.

That set is for sure on my wish list. I love the scallop pennant!

I haven't used pennants on a layout yet so I decided to sketch something up.

I hope to have time to use this sketch soon. In the mean time, I'd enjoy seeing how your pages turn out. Leave a link to your layout in Mr. Linky below.


Hope you've had a wonderful weekend!

Make & Take Monday {Sketch}

I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend. Here's a sketch to start of the week.

The only thing I don't like about the layout is the title. I could not think of anything creative.

Supplies -

Paper and Cardstock:
Bashful Blue Cardstock
Chocolate Chip Cardstock
The Write Stuff Specialty Paper - this pack includes 3 sheets of die cuts. One being the red shape behind my title.
Tall Tales - I cut the red hot air balloon from this paper.

Discontinued
Pacific Point Patterns and Cardstock
Sweet Slumber Specialty Paper - the cloud paper


Punches:
Scallop Edge
Curvy Label - punched side by side to create the edge on the Chocolate Chip cardstock.
Slit - if you punch the slit punch side by side it will create a large scallop edged strip.


Big Shot:
I used Polka Dots Impressions Folder in the Big Shot to emboss dots onto my popped up clouds.


Chipboard:
On Board Timeless Type - I used a sponge and Pacific Point ink to color my chipboard letters.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Hope you enjoy the sketch. I'd love to see what you create. Please add a link to your layout created using this sketch.

P.S. My comments have been moved to just under the title. Not sure how that happened. :)

Make & Take Monday

It has been a really long time since I've shared a sketch. A year or more I think. Someone found my sketch blog Scrapbook Page Possibilities about a week ago and left a comment wondering if I was going to post more sketches. I dug out my sketch notebook and found lots of sketches I'd drawn up but never shared and never used. So I thought I would start sharing a sketch once or twice a month.

I've inclued the measurements of the papers and photos to help make it that much easier to use and plan your page.

Here's a page I've created using this sketch.

I used snowflakes in place of circles but you could use flowers, butterflies, stars, all sorts of fun things. I titlted the blue paper a little and used two wallet size photos instead of one 4"x4".

Papers:
Razzleberry Lemonade
Melon Mambo
Pacific Point
Whisper White

Punches:
Scallop Edge

Big Shot Dies:
Snowflakes #2 set
Lots of Tags
Top Note
Billboard Decorative Strip

Chipboard

Loads of Letters

Tip - An easy and quick way to color chipboard is to use a sponge dipped in an ink pad. Don't want to get messy fingers? Use a binder clip to hold the chipboard while you sponge. I used a huge clip but any size should work.

Below you will find Mr. Linky. You can easily share your pages created using this sketch by filing out the form below. I look forward to seeing what you create!!

Hope you are having a wonderful Monday. Thanks for visiting.
