Miss You card w/ DCWV

Hello!
Today I have a super simple and totally awesome card using the Pebbled 6x6 stack from DCWV. As many of you know, Oct 5 was World Card Making Day and to go along with that The Original Scrapbook USA Expo is having a donation drive for Operation Write Home. Help us reach our goal of 500 cards! All the details are in this post, 500 Cards. 

 There were plenty of challenges available over the weekend to get everyone making some cards. So I found a nice sketch from Pagemaps and created this card using it:

I loved the layers and the simplicity of the sketch because I knew I wanted to use more than one sheet from the Pebbled stack but I wanted the card to feel masculine at the same time. I started with just white cs as my base, then added the sheet of grey after using my emery board on it to really help the awesome pebbled pattern show. Then I grabbed a pp from the Sky's the Limit stack for a bit of color and pattern behind the dark yellow paper from the Pebbled stack. I added a couple strips of washi for a banner and some rub-ons for my sentiment.

Easy, quick and elegant.

Thanks for stopping by!

Volleyball w/ Moxxie

Hello there! I have a little bit of Volleyball fun for you with the fun Moxxie line. First up, I have some quick treats I made for my daughter's volleyball team. I have decided that Halloween is a great time for buying treats for team sports! I love the large selection of creatively packaged small treats. It's awesome!

I found the cutest little suckers with eyeballs on them and came up with this. I used my silhouette to cut the words out of the pp Teamwork, then backed it with blue cs, punched holes for the suckers and put the sticks through. Easy peasy, just the way I like it.

I was a bit tired when I was cutting these out so I made more than I needed to. But that left me with a grid of the Teamwork paper and an extra treat sign, so I put them to work on a layout.

I used Game Point as the base and put the Teamwork grid over it, then added some photos. I used buttons in the the empty wrappers from a couple of suckers for the eyes on the treat sign, then added some of the cardstock stickers.

Then I used a bit of the other side of the Game Point paper for journaling and added this rub-on to it. I love Moxxie rub-ons. They are SO easy to go on and don't stick before you're ready for them to. 

I kind of felt like I had a bit of teamwork going on here. When I got 9 treats and a layout done all out of one fun idea!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! :)Ange

Crazy for you!

 My layout today is all about my sweet little man. I have to tell you I totally miss those cute little curls! He's such an entertaining little guy. Quite a bit of trouble, but so much fun.

I used this week's NAS sketch for this layout and Carta Bella's Rough & Tumble collection.

I wanted to use this Crazy for You cut out for my title so I did the title area a bit different from the sketch. I loved layering all these fun papers. The ticket pp was super easy to cut out and use as a strip of tickets. Love it!

I sprayed my background a little to get it nice and "dirty", layered some stickers and finished up with a bit of doodling around the border.

 Thanks for stopping by! I'd love for you to become a follower of my blog. Thanks! :)Ange

Love it! with a NAS sketch

 Honestly, really love watching volleyball and playing. But it is so much fun to watch my daughter play and grow in this fun sport. Not to mention her teammates that I've been able to watch learn and grow right along with her. These are such fun times spent together with friends. 

I used this week's NAS layout #284 for this layout:

You can find the sketch here. I also used my most recent Scraptastic club kit. I picked out this grid pp because it reminded me of the net and then for the title area I used white duct tape to resemble the tape on the volleyball net. I think it turned out awesome and I'm so glad I thought to go that route and that my daughter offered her duct tape when I mentioned out loud that I wished I had white washi tape. 

I purposely wrinkled the duct tape as I laid it across the layout, to resemble the net more accurately.

The 'amazing' banner piece came in the kit, but then I added some glossy accents to the letters, let it dry, then inked over it with blue so you can see the Amazing better.

 

This volleyball was actually an extra I had after making locker decor this year. Never hurts to make a few extra pieces right?

So Happy @ 3 with DCWV

 Hey there! I've got a fun lo using the awesome papers from the Birthday Wishes stack by DCWV that I picked up from the Scrapbook USA Expo. Let me tell you, this stack is AWESOME!!! Here's my layout:

That rockin' banner? Yep, already ON the paper. I just cut around some of the banners and popped them out a little. And they were all cuted up with glitter! Love that!!

The polaroid? Yep, already there. I just added my photo with pop dots to give it some fun dimension. I made the little party hat from a scrap of the green chevron paper by cutting a triangle with a bit of a rounded bottom. I just eyed it. Then I folded some twine until it was a thickness I liked, tied a piece around it and cut the loops for the pompom on top.

I love inking, so I will do it anytime with any color! You can see my patterned paper layers here (LOVE this stack!) with inked edges, the flag made with a bit of washi and toothpick, and the hidden journaling tag popping out behind the photo.

I really just went all out embellishing this layout. It's a party one after all. :) Funny thing that happened: I was super excited to do this and use up all those # thickers that I don't normally use, but I did not have very many 3's, which I thought was really odd, until I did the "thr33" & I didn't have any E's so I went looking for, yep 3's. lol 

  I love making my titles pop by adding faux stitching with markers. So far I've had the best luck with foam thickers which are my favorite kind anyway. The candles are exclamation points turned upside-down, the black dots around the washi tape 3 are glitter thickers. Go ahead and use up all those .'s

I had so much fun making this layout. Go ahead and get this party stack, Birthday Wishes, from DCWV and just go all out. It will be fun!! :)Ange
