Latest Layout

Hello Everyone!

Well, I thought about sharing with you the layout that I'm currently working on. This layout was inspired by a sketch that I created for a previous calss for Scrapbooking 101...scroll down to see all previous posts.

The pictures were taken last year, but it wasn't until this past weekend that I had the chance to print the pictures. I'm having fun using different sizes in my layouts. This page was created in 8.5 x 11 format, the patterned paper was 12x12 but I usded my fabulous Cutterpede paper timmer to re-size my paper. The page is not complete, it still needs a title and some other elements. So, stop by later to see the finished product.

Thanks for stopping by!

Next Week's Class

Hi, I'm having some trouble uploading the pictures for next week's class, so I'll be trying again in a little while...wish me luck!

However, I can tell you that next week we'll be learning about Designing with patterned paper. This is another neat class, because when I started scrapbooking it was so overwhelming to go to the scrapbook store to pick patterned paper...almost intimidating for someone "was not" into patterns...now you ask? I LOVE PATTERNED PAPER! In this class I will share with you how I learned to overcome this small challenge. See you there!

6x6 Layout Inpired by Sketch

Hi!

I got SO inspired by the layout sketch for the class S101-3, that just had to make a 'lil layout for my "Me" scrapbook. So, here it is! It's in a 6x6 format and believe it or not, it was created with paper scraps!

Patterned papers are by Kaleidoscope, die cut letters are from BossKut, flowers and cardstock are by Bazzill, ribbon and button are from W-Mart.

I like how this little LO turned out, simple and with bright colors. I might still add some doodles around the frame but I need to be in the right "mood" for that.

Blog you later!
