SBM sketch and The Thrifty Thistle....

Things are a little slow on the scrapbooking front at the moment, however I do have a layout to share which appeared in a recent issue of The Scrapbook Magazine.

 It was the sketch challenge...and you know how I love a good sketch!

So, using the supplies in my stash and a super cute photo of my eldest daughter now 18, I created this page :)

I find that I'm generally drawn to blue paper collections and this was a favourite of mine from October Afternoon.

Even if my scrapbooking is on the back burner , I'm still putting my scrapbook supplies to very good use by making lots of bits and bobs for my rented craft shelf at "The Thrifty Thistle" shop in Felixstowe.
 It's a great little shop championing Suffolk crafters of all kinds, as well as being a showroom for handpainted renovated furniture.
Well worth a visit if you're passing :)


Thank you so much for stopping by

New Challenge for the New year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR...

Who's ready for the 1st Scrapology challenge of 2015?

This month's scraplift /sketch inspiration is from a super layout by Laura Vegas ...you can see it HERE on the Scrapology blog.

This is my 8.5 x 11 layout.. using my kit from the Papermaze December crop in Otley.

and here's the sketch..

 

As you can see the added challenge is to use " Lots of letters" on the layout.( not too difficult for any scrapbooker!!)

If you'd like to share your project with us, pop over to the blog to see all the details of how to enter the challenge , Design team layouts and the fab prize that's on offer this month.

Happy scrapping.
