Sketch Layout

I used two sketches from PageMaps to create this two page layout.

The left page is from October 2011 and the right is Jan. 2012.  I modified them slightly to create a two page layout.

 

Supplies:

Paper:  Colonial White Cardstock (CTMH), Vintage, Accent Cuts and Curtains from Crate Paper Random Collection, Orange Mini Dot from Simple Stories Fabulous, Ashtyn polkadot from 3 Bugs in a Rug and Apple Orchard from Basic Grey Picadilly collection.

Other:  Doilies from stash, crochet flowers from Petaloo, foam letters from Pink Paislee

Dies:  Spellbinders circles and scallop circles.

Have a great Wednesday!

H2H Sketch Challenge

A sketch is the challenge this week for H2H. 

This week I chose to use the new Mayberry paper pack.  I really liked this paper once I seen it in person.

My card base is a 6" circle which I covered the front with the large quilt pattern paper from Mayberry.

I made the inside of the card similar to the front, just toned down some with the omission of the large pattern paper.

Supplies:

Paper:  White Daisy Cardstock, White Daisy Textured Cardstock and Cocoa Cardstock, Mayberry Paper Pack

Ink:  Cocoa

Stamps:  TLC (C1364)

Embellishments:  Flower is cut from Mayberry pattern paper, CTMH Pink button assortment, CTMH chocolate flower buttons, Chocolate baker's twine.

Tools:  Papertrey Ink Limitless Layers die (for scallop circle and plain circle), Cuttlebug Butterfly die and Cuttlebug tiny dots embossing folder, Cuttlebug.

Thanks for looking, and be sure to stop by the H2H challenge blog to see what the design team created using this sketch.

H2H Sketch Challenge

Over at H2H we have been given a sketch challenge for this week.  And yes, I am running a bit late in getting my project posted, but I was being extremely indecisive in what I wanted to create.  Alas, my brain was finally able to produce something.  Below is the sketch provided by H2H.

I rotated the sketch so the circles are along the bottom.













I used the pattern paper from the CTMH Bliss paper pack and the January Stamp of the Month for my project. I stamped the dress form stamp onto Bamboo Cardstock using Desert Sand Ink.

 
I used my water brush directly on the Desert Sand Ink pad to pick up the color and then "painted" around the entire image.  It makes it look very aged, like it was cut from an old advertisement in a newspaper. The water brush did make my cardstock warp some, but that is the look I was going for.

I used Spellbinders dies to cut the scalloped circles from cork, the regular circles from Bliss patterned paper and hearts from felt.  I attached CTMH chocolate buttons using chocolate baker's twine and also used the twine to attach the "Love" sentiment (also from the January SOTM).  The sentiment is stamped onto a tag shaped piece of chipboard that CTMH made years ago.

SUPPLIES:

Paper:  Colonial White and Bamboo cardstock, Bliss patterned papers.

Inks:  Desert Sand and Chocolate

Stamps:  Find Your Style (D1452)

Embellishments:  Chocolate buttons, chocolate baker's twine, chipboard tag

Tools:  Spellbinders Nestabilities -scallop circle, plain circle, heart and Cuttlebug

Misc:  Fine Linen felt from Papertrey Ink and cork from my own stash.

Thanks for stopping by!
