Creative Scrappers Sketch #126

Sketch is from
http://creativescrappers.blogspot.com/.  Paper is Fancy Pants Rough and Tough line.  Chipboard tickets and stars were in my stash and I don't remember the manufacturer.  The little green guy is from Cricut's Mini Monsters cartridge.  The background green paper and the stars paper are actually one sheet that I cut the middle from, distressed the edges and adhered them to a freebie white page protector insert that I save for just these needs.  Saved from cutting into a second paper.

Creative Scrappers Sketch #124

I really thought that this would be a tough sketch to use with all the little stuff, but I ended up using it almost to the exact elements and really like the results.  The sketch is from http://www.creative-scrappers.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10002/Creative_Scrappers_124.jpg.

This is a sketch from http://sketchythursdays.blogspot.com/.  I used some really, really old paper up for this one.  The old Memory Makers Cheeky line.  Feels good to use some of the old stuff up. 


Sketches4you Halloween #2

This challenge was not a sketch.  It was a Halloween poem and chipboard challenge.  The arrow is a painted chipboard piece.  The picture is my brother and me in 1965.  I looked whiny and crabby even back then, didn't I?  The challenge is from the Halloween Event at http://sketchesforyou.ning.com/.

Page Maps - Ally Scraps

This sketch is from http://www.pagemaps.com/.  I was inspired by the "frame" around the layout as well as the placement of the picture(s).  This is David's first day of fourth grade at a brand new school.


Sketches4you Halloween Oct 1

This is a sketch from http://sketchesforyou.ning.com/ for their Halloween event.  The journaling is hidden behind the picture.  The spider web is made with a mask and paint.  The thing I loved best is that I got to use some scraps.

Inspired Blueprints Sketch 54

This sketch is from http://inspiredblueprints.blogspot.com/ and I reall like how the layout turned out.  Now if we could just get the teacher to stay, I would love the layout even more.  She has decided that this position at our charter school is not a good fit for her right now.  We are saddened.
