Stampin' In Alaska

Happy Friday! I am back to share a second post for today. Every Friday Unity Stamp Company sponsors a fun linky party they call Friends With Flair . I decided to use  Unity's {be Inspired} Challenge   layout inspiration this week.  For those of you with pets you understand what a miracle this photo was to capture! Gingersnap is always on the go so this was definitely worthy  of scrapbooking! I have used several Unity Stamps on my layout: Just a little... clicky Camera Ready SMAK 2/14 Zoom In    My View of You Here's the inspiration layout from the {be Inspired} challenge: I really had so much fun creating this layout tonight!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I'm stopping by with a quick post for this week's Sassy Cheryl Digi Challenge Two Dies and Some Purple Cheryl's shop is full of new and adorable images. I bought " Say Cheese Please " during the recent Memorial Day sale and couldn't wait to color and play. Sorry for the poor quality photo.  I still haven't found a good way to photograph scrapbook layouts! Here's a close up of the sweet image: I'm also sharing my project with Cheryl's Show Me Thursday Challenge . Thanks for stopping by!  I always enjoy reading your comments.

This week's Art Impressions Challenge: Anything Goes - Masculine was the perfect inspiration to create this masculine scrapbooking page of my husband and his first experience on a paddle board. I have combined various papers and stickers with three fun Art Impressions images: Surfer Dude Surfer Surfs Up! sentiment   The images were heat embossed with CTMH black and fussy cut then colored with copic markers.  A light chalking was added for the "sunburn". The layout inspiration is from  Sketch~N~Scrap Challenge #55 This was a lot of fun to put together and was really a quick project.  I'm so glad for the inspiration to get caught up on my much neglected scrapbooking projects! Thanks for stopping by!  I always enjoy reading your comments.

The week's seem to fly by and we are back to play along with Unity's Friends with Flair blog hop party. I made a promise to myself that I would scrapbook this year's vacation before  next year.  You smile, but pictures are still in  my drawer from our last two annual vacations! UGH! Unity kits and IttyBitty stamps have really inspired me to use more stamped images with my scrapbook layouts. Here's what I came up with this week. I can't believe how quickly it all went together! The following Unity stamp sets were used: Beautiful Place, Clear Head All day pass (to the beach) Epic Moments SMAK 6/13 Here's close up so you can see how beautifully the sun ray image from "Epic Moments" stamped on the Kraft: The sketch inspiration came from  Sketch~N~Scrap Challenge #52 : Thanks for stopping by for a closer look!

I am back to share another scrapbook layout. While the inspiration  is with me, I'll make the most of it! Today's layout is for this week's Sassy Cheryl " Anything Goes " Challenge and Inspired by Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Ice Inspiration" and Catch the Bug Challenge Blog " Winter Wonderland ". Sorry about the quality of the photo!  I haven't found a really good way to photograph the page except to lay them on the floor which generally causes a glare.  UGH! I recently took advantage Cheryl's sales and bought this adorable snowman for $1.  I knew he would be perfect with my ice sculpture layout. You can find " A Frosty Cup of Cocoa " in Cheryl's online shop. I colored him with Copic Markers and applied a light layer of glitter ink from a Wink of Stella Brush. The hat and scarf were paper pieced. I'm also sharing with the ladies over on the Sassy Ch...

Paper Smooches Sparks is hosting another "Anything Goes" challenge this week over on the blog. I recently ordered a few of the new stamp  sets and the Poloroid die .  So, I thought: "Why not use the fun PS die for a layout?"   Here's what I came up with:     I also combined a few of the stamps from PS We Totally Click and I think they add the perfect balance to the page. Snowflake eyelet charms by MME, rhinestones, a paw brad, tag and skis by Jolee's finish the page.     The layout is based on a great sketch provide by Sally over on Splitcoast Stampers. I am also entering this layout in the Simon Says Stamp  Wednesday Challenge:  Ice Inspiration . Thanks for stopping by for a closer look! I always enjoy reading your comments.

Happy Friday!  I hope everyone has fun plans for the weekend.  I'm stopping in with a couple of Sneak Peeks of the newest digital release from Create with TLC .  I had so much fun creating with this set.   I hope you take a minute to check out the Store .  I know you'll find something fun to add to your digital library! My first project is a digital scrapbook page using paper and elements from the soon-to-be released "Follow the Fairytale" digital set: The second project is a tag using a digital image from "Follow the Fairytale": I hope you have a fabulous weekend!  Thanks for stopping by for a closer look.

I am so glad that I got a chance to play along with the Friends with Flair Challenge this week!  I've had an idea growing for the past week to use the scrapbook page layout provided on the Be Inspired challenge blog.  It finally came together for me today!  Here is the sample layout provided for the challenge. Here is my take on the layout using an Itty Bitty from Unity called "Destination Happiness"  and the chevron background.  I have also used a scrolled journal block that I received in a freebie bag.  I have to admit that this is definitely not my typical style of scrapbooking.  It was nice to step out of my comfort zone and give it a try!  I also have to admit that this is my first completed page in probably a year.  Yikes! Thanks to Joslyn for the challenge and inspiration to get me back into creating! PS > Sorry for the poor photo!  I never quite know how to photograph a 12x12 scrapbook page.  Tips are alway...
