Cherish

Happy Tuesday peeps!

We have a few weddings this summer, so I decided to make a wedding card.

Just Another Manic Monday!

Are you singing that song? It was one of my favs from the 80's!
It's my day to post on the blog over at the Robin's Nest and I just want to share a couple of sneak peeks here.
I would love if you would go see my full post on their blog.

Snow Blast!

Happy Sunday Scrappy Friends!
I am doing a quick post before I head outside on this beautiful sunny day in Wisconsin!
Today I am sharing a layout I created using a Stuck?! sketch, a photo challenge at Creative Embellishments and a challenge at Turtle Soup (use embossing folders).
Here is what I came up with:

 
I ran my circles through embossing folders and then added watercolors.
I used a frame from Creative Embellishments and added black in to it:

 
I cut the word "blast" on my Cameo and ran that through an embossing folder too:

 
In these pics, you can see my stencil and modeling paste work along with  misted, stamped and drips of watercolors:


 
Here is the sketch:
 
 
 
Here is the photo I took inspiration from at Creative Embellishments. I started my layout with the colors blue, pink, brown, green and yellow like in the photo. But once I was done I wasn't happy, so that is when I added the orange to bring out the bit of orange in the photo. Love it!

 
Hope you have a wonderful day!

Road Trip!

Hey! It's my day to post the challenge at My Scraps & More today. This month we are having a sketchathon with a new sketch being posted every day. So fun! Hope if you are not playing along, you will join in with us.

I used Amy Tangerine Plus One, a Recollections arrow, Studio Calico wood veneer stars and a cut file from Silhouette for this layout of the kids:

 
Here are a few close ups:

 
I am a wood veneer fanatic, love this stuff and can't get enough! This frame is one of my favs:
