SNS Card Sketch #169

Today we have a fun card for you over at Sketch N Scrap!

Did you scrap your heart out over the weekend? I sure did. I was on crafty overload and might have even had a craft hangover on Monday. That is what I love about cards. They don't take as much time for me as a scrapbook page since I don't have to coordinate photos and journal and all that fun stuff.

Here is what I came up with today...though now that I am thinking about it I should have done something with a taco as I have a fun stamp with a taco...ok later my friends later. Until now you have ice-cream using one of my Pure Innocence girls.

Enjoy

Please join us all month long over at Sketch N Scrap we have a big birthday happening and all sorts of fun stuff. Hope to see you there :)

SNS NSD 2020

Whoo hooo hello everyone! Guess what day it is? You probably know it is National Scrapbook Day 2020!!!!

We have been working hard over at Sketch N Scrap this month so that we can have a wild time with all of you! This month also marks our 8th Birthday! We hope you enjoy all we have in store for you.

I was recently asked if I ever mix collections and where I fall on a scale of 1-10. Well I have to tell you I give myself a 1. I am terrible at it. However that really made me think why don't you mix and match?

I will tell you the truth, I am sensitive to color. Now that doesn't mean that I never have something look off or that I get it right every single time. I just find it easier to use the same companies line because then I don't have to worry about my colors not having the same saturation, tones, and depth.

I decided to give it a go for all of you thought! I have paper here from Close to my Heart, Bella Blvd, and a ephemera pack from Becki Adams. I went crazy! I also love how it ended up turning out.

I had some cute little candid shots of my little on reading one of her favorite books. These photos looked so cute  for this project and I love scrapping the everyday moments in life.

Well we hope that you will join us all month long for lot of fun and let us know if you like to mix manufacutres or if you stick to the same one when you scrap. Stop over at Sketch N Scrap we wil be doing fun stuff all month long!

SNS Layout #199

Hello everyone, today I have a layout to share using some adorable papers from the Shimelle Never Grow Up line which was one of the featured lines in my March “Flavor of the Month” Kit. So so happy my friend Lisa told me about that club, it is so fun getting a little sampling of new current lines.

My grandson thinks this dog at his other grandmas house is his even though it is her neighbors puppy. He said he is his best friend. Awwwww 

I added some clusters to my page as I have been trying to work on layering.

I used this adorable sketch from Sketch N Scrap we would love to see what you come up with!

SNS Card Sketch #167

I have been organizing my studio since we moved into our new home in November. I have come so far but then I had to dig around and now it is a mess again. That tells me that I still have a lot of work to do as if it were more organized I wouldn’t need to dig for stuff I would know right where things are at.

I do know where my stamps are at as well as my coloring tools! I love coloring, I decided to pull out my prisma colored pencils and gamasol for this card. I pulled out one of my PI Girls. I love the Pure Innocence stamps from My Favorite Things they are just so sweet.

Isn’t this paper so adorable adorable? It is from Shimelle’s Never Grow Up lime from the March “Flavor of the Month” Kit. I was also able to pull out some ribbon from Stampin’ Up! That I have had forever and ever as well as some Nuevo Drops....should I tell you I used those because I searched and searched for my little gems and couldn’t find them anywhere? I did end up finding them. 

Next up is the inside of my card. I always try to coordinate the inside and often end up just adding some banners.

Here is the sketch I used from Sketch N Scrap

Card Sketch #164

Hello everyone! 

Today I have a card using a Pocket Card. I love making quick cards with them. I also added some stickers to give it a little something extra. 

I made a card with the Sketch N Scrap card sketch #164.  We would love to see what you come up with. Be sure to link up with us over at the blog.

SNS Layout #194

Hello everyone hope you enjoyed January! Now we enter into the longest shortest month of the year. 

I am finally settled into my space from the move however now I am trying to organize all of my goodies so I joined the Get Organized Challenge with Totally Tiffany. This has been great because I am really finding things I have forgotten and it will be so nice for my goodies to have a permanent home. Since I am still in the middle of working on the Get Organized Challenge I have been just printing and scrapping whatever I like. I sort of do this anyway but normally try to scrap chronologically at the same time scrapping current. 

Anyway since I don't really have any photos ready to scrap I just grabbed some more cute ones of the grandbabies.  They are my favorite things to scrapbook anyway so it was a win win for me.

I used Sketch N Scrap Layout Sketch #194. We would love to see what you come up with so make sure you link up your page over at our blog.
