STUCK ON U SKETCHES DESIGN TEAM REVEAL - June 21ST - PAMPERED


HELLO AND WELCOME TO MY BLOG AND THE STUCK ON U SKETCHES DESIGN TEAM REVEAL AND WONDERFUL SKETCH BY SANDI CLARKSON

http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.co.uk/

I loved this sketch although I may have overdone the embellishing and layering part! 
Do go visit all the designers blogs for lots of inspiration and have fun along the way.
This is how I put mine together.
I chose camel and aqua from the photo and took some camel 12x12 paper and a doily edge punch and punched all around the edge. I attached this to my aqua backing card.
I then added some pretty paper which I cut down to 11x11 inches.
I mounted my photo onto the aqua cardstock.
I matted this onto some camel cardstock, cut down to 9x7inches, inked the edges and adhered to my pretty paper.
I then added the centre border scalloped card and added a piece of ribbon down the side.
I added some cream scalloped cardstock to opposite corners.
I added some ribbon and lace.
Then  added my honeycomb chipboard pieces.
Next I started to decorate with my flowers and butterflies.
I added some doily pieces and a cardboard layer.
Last but not least I added the title.
I hope you like it and give it a go.

MAJORCA



Hi everyone and welcome to my blog. I have not uploaded for a while due to illness but am feeling much better now.
Here is my latest layout. No outside inspiration used for this one, I just went for it!
I used a small photo for a change and chose pink, white and grey for my colour scheme.
I attached some doilies onto my plain pink background cardstock.
I attached some scallop edged card in grey.
I added a sheet of Bo Bunny pretty paper and scalloped the edges with a pair of scallop scissors.
I matted my photo in pink cardstock.
I added some doilies underneath the photo.
Then I started to decorate with lots of flowers.

I added some butterflies with beaded bodies.

I added some funky fibres.
I added an extra three title pieces that I cut from another sheet of the pretty paper.
I then added a die cut swirl which I cut from chipboard and painted.
Last but not least I added the title with some stickers.
I hope you like it.

STUCK ON U SKETCHES DESIGN TEAM REVEAL - June 7th - HATS


Hi everyone and WELCOME TO THE STUCK ON U SKETCHES DESIGN TEAM REVEAL.
SKETCH DESIGN BY SANDI CLARKSON

http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.co.uk/
 
For this sketch I decided to cut my photos into rectangles.I used the pink from Jessies hat for my colour scheme. I have to say I struggled with this one a bit as I am not used to white space!!!! I feel the need to fill it all up! Anyway, this is what I did-
I used some pretty papers which I fussy cut and matted in pink and then brown.
I attached  these to some pink cardstock which I cut down to 11x11 inches.
I attached this to neutral coloured cardstock that I cut down to 11.5 x 11.5 ins.
I attached this to my 12x12 pink cardstock.
I tucked some rectangle doilies underneath opposite sides, added my photos and started to decorate.
I added lots of flowers, a little clay bird on a branch, mini roses, butterflies and one of my beaded pins. 
I also attached some white twine across the centre to bring the page together. (The need to fill?).
I added my sticker title and there you have it.

Do give this a go and dont forget to visit all the other designer blogs for more inspiration.
Have fun and happy scrapping. Bye For Now.
