Today

Another awesome sketch is up at Lets Get Sketchy this week. Don't forget a new sketch is posted every Monday so there is always lots of inspiration to check out.
I stayed at the Bellagio last year for my birthday, and was given a room upgrade to have an awesome view of the strip and their fountains.

Here is my take




 
I have used Prima - Delight Collection on this layout and the lettering is from Pink Paislee. Layering and distressed edges feature.
Check out LGS and stay tuned, we are having a BLOG HOP soon with awesome prizes to win if you play along!

Hello!

A fortnight has passed since l last blogged. Too much work and not enough play time!
Anyway, a new sketch is up at Lets Get Sketchy and you have all week to play along.

Here is my take


I have used papers and embellishments from Echo Park's Beautiful Life range. The chipboard fence is from Leaky Shed Studio and all l did was paint it white. The butterflies are a Marth Stewart punch.

Time to scrap

Yay for holidays, l have some time to scrap for fun!
After having been so busy with my new job l finally found some free time to join in a challenge at My Creative Scrapbook. It's nice to get the mojo going again.
Here is my layout based on their current sketch at Sketches

 
So here is what l did - using white card as my background l randomly placed 2 masks and added texture with impasto. Once it was dry l added Java ink, then inked yellow over the top. My papers and stickers are from KaiserCraft.
The photo corners and scallop circle are from Pink Paislee - Artisan Elements - and l have inked these in yellow.
My vintage trinket is from Prima.
The lettering in my title is from Doodlebug.

Here is the sketch l followed. Join in with this challenge as MCS always give away awesome prizes


Enjoy your day wherever you may be!
