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.

My Scraps and More Blog Hop!!!

  

Hello and welcome to the My Scraps & More National Scrapbook Day Blog Hop! Each of the 6 designers has used one of the items in the image below in a project.

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!

MSAM Sketch #73

It is time for a new sketch on the My Scraps and More sketch blog.  This one was created by Tammi Bennet.

Here is what I created with the sketch.  Now after looking at it photographed I realized it was a bit too plain for my taste so I did some white splatter painting to it but didn't get  time to get a new photo. Couldn't have it too neat :)

MSAM Sketch #71

Another Friday is here, woohooo!!! This Friday is extra special because it is the last day of work before spring break!!!  Here is the first sketch of March at My Scraps and More Sketch Blog. This one was created by Tammi Bennet.

Here is what I came up with.  I did a little flipping around of the photos but other than that pretty close to the original design.

MSAM Sketch #69

It's Friday and that means time for a new sketch at the My Scraps and More Sketch Blog.  Here is the great sketch by Wendi Robinson.

I created this page from our family trip to Destin, FL.  One of the few pages you will see with me in it.  From left to right is me, my mom, and my sister.
