Explore Nature

 Hello once again my scrappy friends!  I've finally completed this LO...it's been sitting on my desk for weeks.  Just never could get it together to finish...too tired, running out, who needed me for something...cleaning and cooking!

I used this fantastic sketch from Scrap Our Stash, March 2021 Sketch Design.  I loved the use of washi tape since I have so much, I only used a little, but a little is better then none!  I opted for 3 pictures rather then the four indicated on the sketch but my three work fine!

 

My layout:

I added some stenciling, embossing, inking and stamping!  My desk was a complete disaster!...but it was fun creating!

 

Thanks for stopping by and commenting.  You have until Monday, 3/29 to enter your LO!

Just a note

Hello my scrappy friends!

One of my brothers-in-law birthday is this week so naturally I made a card!  Think I missed the mail today so it may be late but I don't think he will mind!

I was inspired by Sketch-N-Scrap's card sketch #189.

 My card....

Quick and easy card but so nice! Love being able to use several scraps!  Check out Sketch-N-Scrap's blog for more challenges!  You have till the end of the month to enter.

Enjoy your day!

Oh snap!

Hello my scrappy friends!  Kuddos to those of you who work, have a family, take care of the house, etc and create.  I've been working for the past 1.5 months and am having a hard time finding the energy and time to make cards and LOs, let alone remember to post to my blog or Instagram!

Here is a card I made for someone's birthday...I think my nieces 8th birthday!  My brain is fried!  Cute crab embellie made using my Cricut for my cute niece!  I love the card sketch from Stick It Down.

Have a lovely day!

Blow Out the Candles

Hello my scrappy friends!  I hope your weather is being nice to you...it's so not nice in too many places!

Using the second sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap, #219  this month, I created my LO with every little effort...after choosing the papers!  That is usually the hardest step in creating for me.

I was able to dig out old pps, ribbon, brads, twine...It's great feeling to shop my stash!

You have a few more days to  create your own LO to enter!

 

Thanks for stopping by,

Nature is Calling to Explore

Hello my scrappy friends!  It's been a while since I crafted a layout and I've missed it!

I was inspired by Sketch-N-Scrap #216 sketch.  I had three pictures to make this one happen!  My son ages ago climbing the tree in my parents backyard.  I'm thinking he was 4 or 5 and is now 18 years old...so yes, ages ago!  I'd give anything to go back that's for sure.  Climbing trees is so much better then applying for colleges!

 

See?  Great sketch!  I used a die from STAMPlorations to make some tags for my jouraling in place of the stars.  I dug out some inks, stencils, stamps and scraps of pps to create this LO.  I'm loving it...which is so nice since lately I haven't loved what I've been creating!

You have one more day to enter Sketch-N-Scrap challenge but of course, you can keep this sketch in your arsenal of sketches!

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!  Have a fantastic weekend!!
