Sketch N Scrap {Born to Ride}

Happy February 1st! :) One month closer to summer and sunshine! Haha! I've just about had enough of the is cold. In the mean time I'll continue to keep myself busy inside my warm home, scrapbooking! My favorite is to grab a sketch and get to work! Scrap N Sketch has a great one today! 

My oldest daughter was probably about 3 years old in the is picture and we had gone out of town to visit her Great Grandma who lived about 5 hours away. Along the way we stopped at a gas station and they had these little motorcycles outside. She insisted that she needed to ride one because they "just her size"! I love my sassy little girl. We got her up there and she grabbed onto the handles like she knew exactly what to do and WINKED at me! lol Oh that girl. Love her. 

 I love adding little clusters of embellishments.

 These little tab like pieces were fun! I even used the remains of a barcode strip! Always fun to be able to use up your scraps! I bet you can't even tell which piece it was. Alright, I'll tell you it's the one with the 3 little pink & red hearts.

Stitched with LOVE

Does anyone still do quilting? I did with my mom when I was younger and I have tried to teach my daughters. This layout is of my 2nd daughter do some quilting on a quilt for herself. She was having so much fun to begin with but by the end she was ready to be done! lol

For this layout I used a sketch from My Creative Sketches along with a challenge from Scrapbook Circle. The challenge at Scrapbook Circle is to include a heart that is stitched in some way on your layout.

For this one I just had to pull out my Sew Easy supplies for this one. The heart piercer was perfect! I did it across a piece of vellum and then stitched it up. I layered that piece of vellum over some pink cardstock that I had used a border punch on.

 Then for the title I used a mix of Alpha's and did some faux stitching around the "Stitched" and then outlined the other two words.

 I LOVE adding puffy stickers! They add great dimension to your pages. 

 Next I added some washi tape behind my picture. When I placed a strip of washi tape down I noticed it was very light and got lost in that black striped paper. To remedy that I matched up and layered the washi tape about 3x's so it would really show up better. I like how it adds a pop of color next to the picture. 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a scrappy day! :)

Hello! My layout today was inspired using a sketch and their Circle Roundup from Scrapbook Circle.  I also used a color challenge from Scrap Much?. This layout of my 2nd daughter performing her first Viola solo. She did such a great job.  

 Here's some close up's. For the title I used some black foam Thickers that I then traced out with a white Signo pen along with some foil alphas. I love the foil Alpha's! They look awesome when they catch the light just right. 

 I had some washi tape that was perfect for this layout. Along with some fun puffy stickers.

 I also popped up my middle picture with some foam adhesive to give a little dimension.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a scrappy day! :)
