On the Road Again

Brendon spends lots of time "on the road" so I wanted to be sure to have a page for his scrapbook showing him in his carseat. Here he is all snuggled inside and ready to go.

I used a sketch from Twisted Sketches (#049) and the twist was to use color any how any way. I thought a black background with large circles in primary colors suited this layout. I matted the photo with each of the colors, added stickers randomly throughout, and did the title in dimensional stickers.

Kraftin' Kimmie Anything Goes and PP#358

Image
Kraftin' Kimmie's Anything Goes was the inspiration for these two cards. Using the August sketch and the KKS stamp Birthday Lulu for the first card I created a cute birthday card. The second card was made with the Zinnia Bouquet stamp from Taylored Expressions.  Turning the sketch and using different colors made them completely unique.  Also entering the second card into the Paper Players challenge 358 for emphasis on coloring. By using monochromatic colors the focus is on the colored image. Lulu's Birthday Wishes Stamp: KKS (Birthday Lulu), Taylored Expressions  (zinnia bouquet) PP: Daisy Bucket (At the Cape), Doodlebug (lilac grid) Dies: MFT (stitched circle, stitched oval) Other: rhinestones,  colored pencils Bouquet of Wishes Stamp: Taylored Expressions  (zinnia  bouquet ) PP: Recollections  (green gingham, green pindots) Cdstk: Bazzill (lime crush, tangerine) Dies: MFT (stitched circle) Other: ribbon, colored pencils

Retro Sketches #154

I really liked this card when I finished it today. I'm always being asked for birthday cards for boys so I used the sketch from Retro Sketches as my starting point for this one. The skateboarder has been in my collection for quite a while and I knew that it would be perfect. I paired the stamp with paper from the Echo Park Scoot 6x6 paper pad and created this fun card. Supplies Cardstock - MFT (Nightshift Blue, Blu Raspberry, Gumdrop Green, Orange Fizz) Patterned Paper - Echo Park (Scoot paper pad) Ink - Versafine(Onyx Black) Stamp - Stampendous ( Skateboard Kiddo) Dies - MFT (Mix & Match Banners) Button Colored Pencils Inside Sentiment - Sweet N Sassy (Birthday Innies)

Merry Monday #147 and CAS(E) this Sketch #111

Image
   Today's card is based on this sketch by CAS(E) this Sketch and features stars for the Merry Monday Challenge. I wanted a card that was bright and colorful so I started with the paper from Recollections that I've been holding in my stash. The sentiment stamp is from Inkadinkado set called Warm Holiday Wishes and it has stars mixed throughout the lettering. The red and green stars in the lower corner are affixed with foam adhesive to give some dimension. Supplies Stamp - Inkadinkado (Warm Holiday Wishes) Ink - ColorBox (Cranberry) Paper - Recollections Dies - MFT (Layered Label Die) Star Punches White Brad
