Saturday Sketch Time

Saturday can only mean another My Time My Saturday Sketch by Lauren. I'm sure you are familiar with Lauren and her amazing work so get ready for some fun things coming up regarding her Saturday sketches. You will want to play along.


Here is this week's sketch:

I've been all over scrapbook pages lately and I felt inspired to make a scrapbook page using Lauren's sketch this week. Recently, I bought a new scrapbook in 8 1/2 x 11 so I thought this sketch would work well in that size.

Here is what I came up with:

I added a few "extra" elements but I just had to. I used a chipboard K (I know the mytimeness in the upper corner is not part of the sketch :-)) which I painted and put pink glitter on. I was going to spell out my daughter's name Kaitlyn but time got away. Then I decided to add some photo corners as well.

Be sure to swing by Lauren's blog and check our her awesome stuff, I'm sure her creation for this sketch will blow you away. Also be sure to swing by the rest of the Saturday Sketch Team to see what they cooked up for this week's challenge:

Dawn Easton
Kendra

Kirsten Dubosque

That's it for now.

Unity Hip Hop Hangover and Cafe Mojo Challenge

Fridays mean Unity Hip Hop Hangover and another fun challenge with the gals at the Cafe, Cafe Mojo that is.

This week's challenge at Cafe Mojo was to use buttons in a fun way. I will admit I ran short on time but did have this cute creation in my Unity folder that uses buttons on this awesome giggle tree.

I believe this might have been a case of another card and for a challenge some time ago but it fits into this challenge quite nice. The background green is by Stampin Up and the pp is by Basic Grey. All images are Unity Stamp Co.

Be sure to swing by Cafe Mojo to see what the other DT members cooked up for this awesome and fun button challenge and we hope that you will play along.

Till Later....

Queen Kat Royal Wednesday

Wednesday means not only the middle of the week but another fun challenge for Queen Kat Royal Wednesday! For those of you stopping by for the first time, welcome. Each Wednesday I'm back for another fun challenge with he Queen Kat Design Team.

This week the challenge is a fun one. I call this challenge April Fool's. Yes I know April 1 was last week but it's still early in April for some more fooling. Here is the challenge: Create a card/ layout/project that has something of a surprise to it. For example: you can have a "secret" pocket on your layout/card or a "surprise" window or something.


Here is mine:


Here is mine showing my "surprise" door:

Be sure to swing by our forum at SNR and share your creations for this fun challenge.

Clear & Simple Stamps - Take the Challenge Tuesday

The first Tuesday of each month is Take the Challenge Tuesday at Clear & Simple Stamps. This month the challenge is Paper Piecing. This is a technique that I love, a great way to use all that awesome pattern paper you have. Or a great way if you don't want to color your image :-)

For my creation I stepped outside the box and did not do a card or a layout. I used Glamour Darling for door hanger and paper pieced her skirt.

Be sure to swing on by the gals on the DT to see what they cooked up for this fun challenge:

Nancy Beauchamp
Lori Tecler

Beth Matson
