MSAM Sketch #79

I had so much fun working with this sketch from My Scraps and More.  I've also got back in the winter mood now that I'm enjoying 80 degree weather and not freezing anymore :)  Here is today's sketch.


I created this page with Echo Parks Keepin Cozy.

Simple Stories DIY kraft labels
Fancy Pants Artist Edition Chalk Tape

Also, be sure to check out and LIKE our Facebook page for a chance to win ANOTHER prize! www.facebook.com/myscrapsandmore

For my product I got to use Fancy Pants Nautical envelopes and pockets. I had already fallen in love with the colors of this collection and had a lot of fun with these.  I couldn't stop with just one page and ended up making 2.  This first page uses the red chevron envelope.


I love the bold look it gave to the page.



Now if you pop on over to My Scraps and More forum you will see that my challenge is up for today and it is a lift of our wonderful store owner Audrey.  Since I used some more of the pockets on my page I thought I would show it to you here.  I went into creating this page with the intention of using the pockets to hold something but I just loved the detail of the shape that I ended up using them more like die cuts.


Here is a close up of the green pocket used more like a die cut.



Now hop on over to Wendi's blog and see what she got to play with.

Here is the order of the hop in case you get lost along the way!
 
Tracy Rhodes - you are here

Thanks for hopping and hope you have a happy National Scrapbook Day!

Scrap and Play

I'm excited to announce I've been asked to be a part of the Scrap and Play Design Team.  I've loved working with Tammi at My Scraps and More and excited for her new venture in challenge blogs.  The first challenge at Scrap and Play starts today with a sketch challenge.





Here is what I created with the sketch.


I hope you will come play along with us!!
