Sizzlin' Summer Sketch #3

Hello Again!

I was busy working on a couple more of these fantastic Sizzlin' Summer sketches over at Scrapbook Challenges! I even dug into my stash for this journalling page...I think this pad of journalling bits has got to be at least 6 yrs old! 

Glad to have the colours work so well with these new papers!

I had this photo from three years ago, sitting there waiting to be scrapped...super simple design and I just stuck it down...rather proud of myself that I actually kept it simple this time around :) I wanted to use the Kraft CS base as the other layouts in my daughter's travel album have similar colours and I wanted to have it all work well enough together...and I love Kraft too!!!

Popped up the title and a couple of circles, dropped some Dylusions Ink spray here and there and that was it!

Have fun with this new sketch everyone and thanks so much for stoppin' by!

countdown to classes @ BC Crop 4 Kids...

Today I want to show you some photos of the class I will be teaching on Saturday, October 6th from 10:00am - 12:00pm for this fantastic Fundraising Crop which benefits BC Children's Hospital...it's called BC Scrapbooking Crop for Kids and it is so much fun!

This class is being sponsored by Bryan Heidinger and he's the Owner of a great Scrapbook shop in Downtown Abbotsford called Paper Nation!

I have created two double-paged layouts and two single paged layouts using a My Mind's Eye collection called 'Indie Chic' which came in some fantastic colours!

this kit includes a FULL package of American Crafts Thickers

also, a FULL package of MME decorative brads

a FULL package of MME decorative buttons and various journalling spots and die cut bits...

I've even cut some felt bits and die cut shapes for us to create our own handmade embellishments...

 I love this Jute twine...such a great texture to add here...

and remember those corner rounders, circle punches and scallop punches? well we are bringing them back here and I'll show you WHY these are the best 'staple' tools in your stash!

If you're coming this weekend, I'll see you there...if you've only got a few hours to spare...have a look at this years classes and just come on down to the Ramada and sign up for one of them! They are taking late sign ups all the way until the classes start, unless they are sold out of course! Which is our goal seeing as 100% of that class fee is going directly to BC Children's Hospital!

Thanks for stopping by!

Having some fun creating with some more Let's Sketch designs by Cheri O'Neill!

I've been hanging onto these photos for some time and it was nice to finally get them scrapped...Jaime's Birthday at Tugboat Junction in Harrison Hot Springs back in 2005!

I am working on the second double page layout with the balance of the photos I have...trying to use some of the same papers so that they will flow when I get them in an album!
