CREATIVE MEMORIES #SIZZLINSUMMER SKETCHES 1-3

 Hi everyone! Thanks for joining me today. Creative Memories is having a summer sketch challenge that runs for nine weeks. This week we got sketch #3. I am going to share my layouts for the first three sketches.

I haven't scrapbooked in a couple of months and it felt great to jump in and accomplish some. 

Layout for sketch #1

I have been working on an album with pictures of my mom's side of the family. This layout has photos of my grandparents at different ages. 

Layout for sketch #2

Last November I had to put my sweet little puppy down. He was only 1 1/2 years old and had acute kidney failure. I love how this layout turned out. 

Layout for sketch #3

I wanted to use all of the pictures from his last day and since I already had them out I figured this layout was perfect for them. I'm creating a complete album to commemorate Bruno's life. These will be the last four pages. 

Thanks for checking out my post.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hi everyone! Thanks for joining me today for my Christmas in July card. Scrapbook.com has been having month-long deals and new products for Christmas and I just had to have the bundle I used on my card today. 

I did join in on a sketch challenge over at Sketch Saturday.

This is the first time I've used one of their sketches and I really like how quickly my card came together. I did add the twist of making it a Christmas card. Now I'm one down for the holiday!

One of the many new products Scrapbook.com is bringing out are rub-ons. I haven't used them for so long and I'm glad they are coming back in. I added silver snowflakes to the pick polka dot paper to give a more wintery vibe and add some shine. 

Here's a different angle to show all the great shine and prettiness. I added a some dimensional tape to the back of my sentiment for some added depth. This is a card I could really see making a bunch of for the holidays. 

Thanks for joining me today for this fun sketch challenge. Now it's your turn!
