This might just be my favorite layout I've ever done! I followed a sketch from Pencil Lines Sketches (just found them last week).

The papers are all from Echo Park's Be Mine collection. The pink flower ribbon across the middle of the page is Bo Bunny. The flowers are from Imaginisce. I used my iRock to add flourishes by the flowers, added rub-ons to the thickers, and I edited the photo, making June's car seat black and white (instead of it's real tan/blue colors), and left just her in color (totally stole the idea from a scrapbooking friend - Chloe).

I.LOVE.THIS.PAGE!

Funny Girl

I didn't follow a sketch for this layout, but had seen some pages that included a film strip element, and I was dying to try adding one to a page of my own! I had all these cute pictures of June, just being funny. I googled images for film strips, pulled one I liked into photoshop, added a bunch of the pictures into the film strip, and then had it printed out at Costco.  The great thing about Costco photo center is that they print 8x12 pictures for the same price as an 8x10, and I wanted the strip to go across the entire page - this way, it did!

I used plain black cardstock for the background, but sprayed it with Tattered Angels' Glimmer Mist to give it some sparkle! The blue patterned papers are from Echo Park's A Walk In The Park, and I used some plain blue cardstock. I added some rub-ons to the Thickers to give them a custom finish, and I used my iRock (from imaginisce) to add rhinestone trails to the butterflies.  I think they turned out really cute! I love this page!

Midweek Mojo 37 brought another guest sketcher! Another Utah friend, Staci Jones, came up with this sketch:

My layout:

I used papers from two Echo Park collections - Sweet Summertime & A Walk In The Park! I really LOVE Echo Park! The title, journaling block, and ticket on the far left side are all also from EP AWITP.

Why?

Nearly a year ago, I got back into scrapbooking after taking several years off!  Scrapbooksteals.com was my inspiration for getting started again. They create a weekly sketch, and then have a giveaway to one person who completed that week's sketch and uploaded the picture to their facebook page. I'm going to add pics of the pages I've completed within the last year!

My layout:

The paper, rub-ons, buttons, and journaling block are all from Fancy Pants' Dancing Girl collection! I admired these papers for months before breaking down and buying them, and they were perfect for this sketch! It was very different from any layout I've completed before. It was really fun, and I like how it turned out!

The papers (just like last week's layout) are from My Mind's Eye- Dreamy 2/Brilliant collection.

My sketch:

The papers are My Mind's Eye- Dreamy 2/Brilliant collection. I used my cricut for the stars and the bracket layers, and thickers for the title!
