Every day Cards with 6x6 paper

I recently participated in an online crop where one of the challenges was to make 6 cards from 6x6 pads. There was a great cutting guide and tutorial we were supplied so it was super easy.

Cards

These are the 6 I made with the Studio Calico Brighton Pier 6x6 pad. I used some leftover embellishments in my tray that sits on my table and found some leftover die cuts in my stash.


Cards

I will definitely be doing this again. It was a great way to use up any leftover 6x6 papers you have and a lot of leftover embellishments.

Two Big NAS 354

Today I'm back with another sketch challenge from Nuts About Sketches. I have to be honest and it was really hard for me to cut my pictures out in circles and I'll probably not do it again anytime soon. LOL I could have easily used patterned paper circles and put photos over them but I wanted to try it. I've just been around long enough to remember the good ole days of cropping photos in all kinds of shapes and never leaving them whole to struggle with this one.




And a close up of the title area. I added the title Two Big with some old alpha buttons from my stash and added the boy wonder card from a cut apart sheet.
The little party hat and ribbon was from a gift that I had put in my stash. I thought it matched perfect to add some dimension to this layout.


Most of the papers are some older paper from Lilly Bee. sorry I didn't keep track of what I was using for this layout.

Hello Pumpkin with Process Video

Today I have a one page layout using a sketch from the Hip Kit challenge. The sketch comes from Creative Scrappers.




I went back in my stash for some fall paper that was brighter to match with the happy feel and decorations of Disney. This photo is from our recent trip to visit my son and so I played with the title a bit of Hello pumpkin, our nickname for him.

Process Video - Happiness is Chocolate

Today I'm working with a fabulous sketch from Stuck Sketches. I pulled some new product and some older stash to scrap these fabulous photos of my hubby with his hand caught in the chocolate bins in his favorite shop in Epcot. LOL


If you want to watch me scrap step by step watch the video below.

And some close ups..

I had almost completed the layout when I really decided I needed to add the stitching so since I couldn't take it to the sewing machine I just grabbed my pen and did some faux stitching. so much better.


The multi colored canvas alpha goes way back in my stash but it was perfect for these photos. It reminds me so much of all the different chocolate wrappers in the bins of the shop.
