Mosaic Sculpture


Another layout from the December visit to Cornerstone in Sonoma with Hubby and Mom. This funky sculpture garden was such a fun place to spend a warm winter day. All materials are Club Scrap. Cardstock from the Tilescapes kit, ribbon from Centennial and the letter stickers are from an oldie called Fiesta. The sketch is another one from the Big Picture Double Take class. Still whittling away at that class. My goal is to do two layouts for each sketch, one with Club Scrap materials and the other from my stash. Wish me luck.

Denni, Wolf Pup of Valley of Fire


Sweet little layout I created for PaperArtistsOnline for a scraplifting challenge. I used all Club Scrap materials, from the Connections Retreat 2010 kit. Photos are of Denni from our trip to the Southwest in 1998. Hubby called her the little Wolf Pup for the duration of the trip (and after) so that’s the sub-title. Thanks for looking.

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to my hubby. I wanted to make a card using this Club Scrap stamp so I designed it around his age. The 77 is made of felt Thickers from the Bistro kit. The card base and panels are from Haberdashery and Written Word. All supplies Club Scrap. All edges inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Seedless Preserves, my new favorite color. The numbers were embossed with Cuttlebug. Thanks for looking.

An Explosive Situation

This little story has to be lived to be understood. While out on the backroads of Kentucky with my Mom and Sister, we stumbled onto this saltpeter mine in what seemed like Deliverance Country. Funny story. It was an isolated scary place to be. And those holes in the rocks were humongous.

This kit continues in the PSL challenge called Make it a Double. I used kit papers from Sparkle and Mirror, Mirror with brads from Rhapsody. The sketch is from a Club Scrap ALSB.

Copperopolis

Club Scrap’s PSL continues and this week the challenge is to use paper from one kit and embellishments from a second one. This layout was created with base papers from Adobe and Artifacts. Brads are from Rhapsody. The layout is about our trip this summer to Copperopolis in the Gold Country. The sketch used is from the Big Picture Double Take class.

Week 7–Weekly Chronicles

Week Seven 8x8
Week Seven and I’m staying with it. This layout was created on digi kit from Club Scrap called Love Ink. The journal card again is from Valorie Brown and the layout template is from Becky Higgins Project Life through Jessica Sprague. A jam-packed Valentine week. Thanks for looking.

Eclectic Garden

This layout was created for the monthly Sketch Relay at Club Scrap. It is one of several about our December visit with Mom to Cornerstone in Sonoma. It's an eclectic garden (as the title states) full of lots interactive sculptures and places for Seniors to step back in time and feel a bit playful. All three of us acted like kids again. It was a fun day with beautiful weather.

All supplies from Club Scrap with the exception of a sticker. The paper from Dream in Color. Embellishments are the Pink brads from Bistro, sticker from stash (Special Moments) and the doodads from Avant Garde. The mirror print on the left was cut with a graphic design on the Silhouette digital cutter. On the right, I designed the title right onto a mat in Silhouette. Thanks for looking.
