This layout was created for a sketch challenge on sketches4all. This photo was taken after our huge family’s annual Christmas party. The older children had been given these large paper pirate hats and Madison and Matthew came home feeling left out. Alex tried sharing his hat with them, but it was too big, so I took out some computer paper, scissors, crayons and tape and made them their own version. It was good enough to make them happy! lol

I have no idea who these papers are made by. If you have this information, please let me know so that I can update my post w/this info. Thank you!

Normally, I would include a link to the sketch I used, but they tend to delete challenge posts once the deadline has been reached, so I didn’t want a dead link here. However, for right now, if you click the link above to go to their site, it’s under the group tab, then click the post marked “get sketchy” then the title of the sketch post “First sketch february.” If you do not see that heading, then the post has been deleted, but you can still check out their new challenges! 😀 TFL!

Christmas Past Layout – Sketchy Thursdays challenge entry

Sketchy Thursdays posted a sketch challenge for the March GDT. To mix things up, they also added a few other requirements. To enter, the layout had to have either pink and green or red and turquoise, hearts, and a list about something or someone you love.

Well, I’m still working on finishing up Alex’s scrapbook and the themes that were left were one Christmas layout or two Halloween layouts. I couldn’t think of a way to incorporate Halloween with those colors, so I went with the last Christmas page left to scrap in his book. I was really happy with how things just fell into place. The photos are from 2007, and I just got the Coordinations Graphic 45 Core Impressions cardstock with the timepieces after wanting it for so long. I then thought of the title…Christmas Past (I was thinking along the lines of A Christmas Carol), so how fitting that I ended up using g45’s Christmas Past papers too!

Not sure if you can read the list in the photo, but on the banner, it says smart, funny, cute, sweet and loving…one word on each pennant to describe my son Alex. Here’s what I came up with:

Materials:

Graphic 45 Christmas Past cardstock
Core Impressions G45 Timeless Collection
Prima flowers
Heidi Grace Pocket Button
Darice craftwood heart
Webster’s Pages Storytellers alphas
Cosmo Cricket tiny type alphas
Tattered Angels shimmer mist
Ranger distress inks
Ranger alcohol inks (to recolor the button)
Jute

Adhesives:

Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro PermaTac
Scotch Quick Dry adhesive
Helmar Professional Acid Free Glue
American Crafts This to That foam dots

You were very into pirates and science that year along with transformers, legos & Indiana Jones.” Since I’m still playing catch-up, you’ll have to put up with at least one more Christmas layout and a couple of Halloween layouts in the next week or so!

This layout was created using a sketch for a challenge on Sketches in Thyme.

Bo Bunny Noel paper pack
gold foil doily
Bo Bunny chipboard dimensional stickers
