March 2016 Scrapbook Sketch Challenge

Post by ScrappinJen »

I know I'm early but tomorrow will be all taken up with Red Carpet and Oscars and then on Monday (Leap Day) I'll be busy putting finishing touches on my Christmas card challenge cards. The panels are all made. I just need to get them onto card bases. Or could I fake it???

Anyway, here is the sketch I am using for this month. It caught my eye while surfing before I was even out of bed this morning and I thought, GO FOR IT.

I grabbed it from Paper Issues where I had never been before. I will have to explore more. Here is the link to the sketch: http://paperissues.blogspot.com/2016/02 ... urday.html

And my interpretation of it. Using Crewel & Unusual kit and posting it in PSL for the metal element used on the journaling tag. The die cuts are all from Technique Tuesday dies. Thanks for looking.

Oh nice! Now if I can get some square photos printed I have just the right ones to use I think!

Great sketch and LO Jen. I looked over at your link and liked many of the samples there too. Hmmmm, what bird will I feature this time?

Actually just today I got a life bird and hoping one photo turned out decent enough to scrap.

I recently placed an order from Paper Issues - never took a look at their blog! The order came quickly with a handwritten thank you from the owner. I'll order from her again.

This sketch is another versatile one. Jen, you do a great job of choosing sketches that will work with one or more photos - all sizes. I really like your interpretation of this sketch. Great balance of colors!

Going to try to get mine done tonight before The Voice.

I *heart* Paper Issues! I've ordered from Cassie several times; her customer service is excellent. They've got some fabulous designers on their site, although I've never used one of their sketches before. Great idea, Jen.

I am embarrassed to say I had never even heard of them. Just stumbled across that sketch on Pinterest. I guess.

Didn't I post my page here? I must have because I swear Keitha commented on the carousel. Must have posted it in another thread. Maybe I need to do another. I really like this sketch.

You are correct. I saw it somewhere else. But thanks for posting here. Cute layout.

I'm thinking of posting another layout to generate some interest???

Nice one Pam! I never know what to do with those foxes I get in embellishment packages, they never look like they belong but this fits perfectly.

So cute. I love the foxes and they are perfect for this layout.
