Sunday Scrappin' is a great place to share your paper crafts, cards, scrapbook layouts, or digital layouts. Won't you join us?I found another site with sketch challenges: Scrap Jazz. This is the link to the November sketch.
I received a bloggy carnival giveaway win today from QueenMotherBlog. I won a set of alphabet stamps and an ink pad, and I'm so excited! I have a card I need to make tomorrow, and I will be using my new stamps!
My Ta-Da's for this week:
4 Scrapbook Pages, 3 Christmas Cards, and 6 Gift Tags
This week, I used a page from Bailey's Granny's SS post last week as a model for one of my own. See if you can figure out which of her layouts was my inspiration for this two-page layout.
I also used a sketch from the May archives of Pagemaps for another one of my pages. Here's the sketch and what I created from the sketch.
My last page was created from a sketch at Got Sketch. Here's the sketch and what I created.
The paper and embellishments on the last two pages were from a kit I won in the last bloggy carnival from The Coconut Scrapshop.
Here are the cards and gift tags I made:
To-Do's:
I just want to stay on a roll, creating pages, cards, gift tags. And I really want to do another online challenge in addition to the SS challenge.
I've also been invited to a scrapbook retreat at the end of January, and I am seriously considering going. Lastly, I want to gather some friends for a local crop at The Scrapbook Studio, but I have to make sure I can find ten people willing to pay the $40 each (use all the cutters, software, cricut and embellishments for free, plus tons of space, dinner, snacks, and drinks included).
Optional Challenge:
Last week, our challenge was to use an online sketch as a basis for a page. I did that! This week's challenge is to do something with Thanksgiving (cards, placemats, or other crafts). I did a Thanksgiving page this week, so I will have to think hard about this.
Don't forget my cookbook giveaway! Happy Scrappin'!
Oh girl, a scrap getaway sounds awesome! Your layouts look great! I've never used sketches before but I think I might try em! Your gift tags are cute too! Great job this week! Good luck stayin on your roll!

ReplyDeleteYour pages are WONDERFUL! Way to go...I love them!
ReplyDeleteWow girl your on a roll!! Your pages are fantastic!! I love all of them. You are the scrapbook queen. Your tags are so cute!! That scrapbook retreat sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteI love your take on my pages. I think they were from a sketch originally. I love sketches. Everything you did looks really nice.
ReplyDeleteGreat work on your scrapbook pages! I love them!
ReplyDeleteSo, I'm stopping by specifically to let you know that I've had a prayer answered today! Stop by to see. :)
I love seeing how you took the sketches and made them your own! Good job!
ReplyDeleteI love lots of crafty things, but cannot get excited about scrap booking. I admire what other people do - I really like your pages - but cannot find any motivation to do the same myself. I guess it's good we don't all like the same things.
ReplyDeleteYour pages and cards are gorgeous Diane, I have saved those sketches as they are wonderful maps.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to go to the retreat, you will love it. I just got the email to notify me of our church retreat so if Peter is home, Im off in May. lol
Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.
I love how your pages turned out from the sketches!
