Big Dipper Sketchtember #4

If you're interested the sketch can be found here

I found this sketch to be hard with my photo placement since my one ride photo was quite large to begin with. I trimmed it quite a bit and I think rounding the corners helped somewhat or at least that's what I telling myself.

I will say I am loving using up all these supplies I have had for eons, like the stickers from echo park's all about a boy. My dream is to get my stash reduced by a third..but I think that's a big WISH.

Disney Page

Well I took on the challenge for another sketch which can be found here

It's a 2 part and so far I only have completed part A with both twists of using vellum and ribbon.

I really was at a loss of what to do then of course I always have a ton of Disney pages I'm wanting to do so I went that route.

Not sure if you're a Disney fan but of course I am and it's no mystery it's changed over the years and this of course was me paying tribute to all those great rides and attractions I remember.

Hello Chum

Well all this scrapping layouts I nearly forgot about my grandson's birthday party, it has a shark theme so I instantly knew this Avery Elle Hello Chum would be the perfect fit for his gifts. I kept the colors blue/grey with a touch of black and have to say I didn't like it at first but I think its grown on me, but no matter it's the boy who will love it I'm sure


\And in addition to making a card I just finished frosting his adorable cupcakes. The sharks are finger puppets for the kids from Oriental Trading Company.

2pearefugees - Claire Bear

Still working on my grand daughters layouts and thought I'd use some of my mists and pastes. I completely went girly on this one but I loved all the bright pinks. It's been such a long time since I've been able to do anything girl related and especially little girl.

2peasrefugees - READ

Another layout completed and I love using up all my old old old products and even had the opportunity to use my ginormous Big shot to cut the scallop square. Funny how it's the little things like a challenge to make you appreciate why you bought all this stuff to begin with. I really was worried I wouldn't be using any of all my supplies.

I didn't bother journaling on this page because it kind of felt like it didn't need any further explanations.

2peasrefugees - Sweet Caroline

Ok, no sketch for this page but was able to meet quite a few challenges. This is my oldest dgd. I was able to use my embelly challenge which was flowers, easy enough but also met the song title challenge, which I admit wasn't hard to do. Best of all it feels good to get pages done and happy to be back to being creative for a change.

2peasrefugees - SKETCHTEMBER SKETCH #1: Lets Go Fly A Kite

This is another layout for the September challenges. It's nice to be able to scrap some pink for the girls after doing boys layouts for the longest time. The twist on this challenge was to color something so I did just that for that shimmery pink flower. It originally was a nice peachy color but didn't work for this page so first I misted with some glimmer mist which made it a bright pink color so I toned it down with some perfect pearls to get a color more suited for this page.


And the sketch can be found here.
