Posted in Crafty Girl by

Hello everyone! We’re stating May a little bit early at ScrapMuch? and it’s time for the Team A 2 page layout reveal!

For this week, I went back to my beloved October Afternoon Girl Talk collection, and some pics from a super fun night in Vegas when I, with 6 of my scrapbook wolfpack, went to see Jeff Dunham at Planet Hollywood. Even though I’d already seen him there 6 months earlier it was still awesome and I still laughed all night. So here is this week’s reveal:

And here is the sketch we had to work with for inspiration:

Adventure – ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Reveal

Posted in Crafty Girl by

Hi everyone! It’s time once again for a ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Team A reveal!

This week I went with a whole mishmosh of my travel themed scrapbook things. What I really like about how this came together, is I used products from several manufacturers and it still managed to work (if I do say so myself).  The picture was at the start of the epic trip that took way longer than it should thanks to a mechanical delay for the second leg.  I took a selfie when it was all over – it was significantly less flattering. So here is my layout for this week:

13012770_10153388351726039_2713036828675287697_n

I have a mix of Jillibean Soup, Simple Stories, Heidi Swapp, We R Memory Keepers, October Afternoon, and Evalicious in the paper and embellies. I stamped with some Teresa Collins and Dear Lizzy stamps, used some Tim Holtz distress ink, some Wink of Stella marker on the geotag heart, and some Heidi Swapp colour shine mists. And of course put in the important details with an amazing uniball signo white pen.

Here is the sketch we had to work with:

Celebrate – ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Reveal

Posted in Crafty Girl by

No foolin! It’s April!  It’s also the first Friday in April which means it’s time for another ScrapMuch? Team A double page layout reveal.

I dug into my stash and used some of my hoarded Cosmo Cricket wedding themed paper – so you know this is a pretty special layout! Cosmo Cricket used to be my absolute fav scrapbook paper company and I don’t have much left. So, I used it to feature one of my fav couples who just tied the knot and I am so grateful I got to be there for the amazing celebration of this special couple. Without further adieu, here is my layout for this week:

Untitled

I managed to mix in some new with the old by using my Heidi Swapp Minc again with a few Minc shapes for the embellies. The washi tape is Graphic 45. The heart border is a Martha Stewart punch. I got to use my Dear Lizzy roller stamp to stamp the memorable date as part of the embellishment cluster. And the title is American Crafts.

Here is the sketch we had to work with this week. I personally have never managed to get slanted photos to work in a way I’m happy with – I own that I’m more clean and simple than I am whimsy. And that’s ok.  I otherwise stuck pretty true to the sketch:

Delight – ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Reveal

Posted in Crafty Girl by

Hello everyone! It’s time once again for another ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Team A reveal!

Indulge me while I share another selfie from my trip in my layout for this week. It was just one of those moments, I was so blissed out, so loving my scenery, so happy to have had a great day surprising Mom. It was pretty much a perfect day.

I drew on some YouTubes for some inspiration for this layout. I was watching some Jen Schow process vids, specifically on 6×6 love.  I have so many 6×6 paper pads and I definitely don’t use them enough.  I used to use them for cards a lot, but I’ve barely had time to scrap these days much less make cards.

So here is my layout for this week:

Delight

Most of the papers were from a Teresa Collins 6×6 paper pad.  To deal with the seams on the side I just used a doodled line to unite them.  The gems on the page are also Teresa Collins. The wood, flair and puffy sticker are from Evalicious. And last but not least, the delight title is a Heidi Swapp word that I of course, sent through the Minc with rose gold foil.  The machine I never thought I’d use gets used on almost every layout. Go figure.

I flipped the sketch on it’s side to show how versatile sketches are. Please don’t feel limited to use them as illustrated, they are but an inspiration jumping off point.

Here is the original sketch we had to work with:

Good Times – ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Reveal

Posted in Crafty Girl by

Hello everyone and Happy MARCH!! Spring is right around the corner!

I had an absolutely amazing time away. It was so much fun to surprise my mom by arriving a few days earlier than planned.  We really had an amazing time just the 4 of us and I can’t wait to do it again.  I didn’t take as many pictures as planned, even though Santa brought me a great new point and shoot camera that even takes underwater shots.  I think I was so busy being in the moment that I really wasn’t thinking about capturing the moment.

It is the first Friday of the month, which means it’s time for ScrapMuch? Team A’s double page layout!  I am using some of the pictures from the trip for this page. I also took a little bit of licence with the sketch this time, but not much. So here is what I created for this week:

Untitled

I used mostly my Jillibean Soup Sightseeing Stew pack for this layout.  It truly amazes me how many layouts I get from a paper pack, no matter which one I buy.  I grabbed some ruffled ribbon from my stash, some October Afternoon washi tape, some American Crafts thickers, some Evalicious wood accents, a flair button from Lawn Fawn, an accordion flower from Pink Paislee, a Heidi Swapp Minc chipboard element, a couple of cards from We R Memory Keepers for the journaling and heart accent, some jewels from Ki Memories and lastly some colour shine mist by Heidi Swapp.

And here is the sketch we used to work with for this week:

Friends – Sketch-y Friday Reveal

Posted in Uncategorized by

Hello and happy Friday! It’s once again time for a ScrapMuch? Team A Sketch-y Friday reveal! This is going to be a short and sweet post for me today because I’m blogging from my happy place and my laptop has decided to be inconveniently moody.

My layout this week features some of my amazing friends and I used the Simple Stories We Are Family paper pack again.  I am honestly amazed at how versatile this paper pack has been. The friends title is an American Crafts thicker, and I cut the ampersand on my Silhouette. Otherwise everything else on the layout is from the Simple Stories pack.

Paradise – ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Reveal!

Posted in Crafty Girl by

Hello and Happy February!! 🙂

It’s the first Friday of the month, which means it’s time for another ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Team A 2 page layout reveal!

I am so excited to see February get here! It’s vacation month for me and I’m finally heading south to visit my happy place after 3 long years. So of course, past memories of my time there became the inspiration for this week’s layout.

So here is what I created for this week:

Untitled

And here are some detail shots:

Untitled

I used my Kelly Purkey stamps in blues, as well as some Teresa Collins stamps, because of the amazing waters, and orange because it’s one of the resort theme colours. Everything in the resort is white, silver and orange. That little Enjoy The View tag is from a treasure box from a vendor at a mega crop I was at in November.

Untitled

I love love love this title! It’s a Silhouette cut file that I filled in with black, printed on my laser printer, cut with the Silhouette and then sent through the Minc with silver foil. I also used an embossing folder on the second piece of patterned paper but on the reverse side to create a debossing effect. The flair up top is from Lawn Fawn. The washi is Bella Blvd and My Mind’s Eye.

Untitled

More shots of the debossing, the Tattered Angels stamp and some messy misting. I even dug into my stash and used some of my favourite 7Gypsies paper for this layout. Both grey pieces are from the same 7Gypsies line, as is the ribbon.  The accordion circle embellishment is from Pink Paislee.

So here is the sketch we had to work with for this week:
