February 10 Die Cut Challenge "You've Got Mail"

2012-02-10T00:00:00.046-05:00

We certainly hope that you all had a great week!

Are you looking forward to the weekend? Any good plans?

Whatever your weekend plans we hope that you will

gets some crafting time in and that you'll enjoy whatever

the weather brings you, sun or snow!

I can tell you that in Northern California it feels like Spring so

I can see being torn between scrapping and cleaning! (Ok, well

that probably isn't too hard a choice! LOL!)

Well today we have a Die Cut Challenge for you and with the Valentine's

being sent out we came up with...

You've Got Mail!

Please do remember that this is a Die Cut Challenge and not a stamping challenge.

We so appreciate everyone that joins the challenge but keep in mind what the

challenge is! =)

Okay and now, we are very excited to share the DT projects

for the week....fun ideas ladies!

Original Sketch Challenge ~ Debbie Burns GD

2012-01-20T00:00:00.043-05:00

So sad to say, but this is our last sketch for the month of January.. but I'm sure you are going to love it as much as we did.. It was so much fun to use and all of our ladies on the design team did an amazing job with it as usual and its such a joy to see how all the layouts are still so different from each other...

so, here is the sketch that Nanné created for you to have fun with:

We have a guest designer this month and you all might remember her cause she used to be of our very own design team members..
Please welcome Debbie Burns:

Hi, my name is Debbie Burns and I'm thrilled to be a guest designer for SOUS. I was on the DT for SOUS in 2010 and loved it and was excited when Sandi asked me to be a guest designer! I'm a Maryland girl. I have lived here my whole life. I have two grown children ages 21 and 24 and one precious, loyal dog! My daughter just moved out a week ago and I am still adjusting to it. One down, one to go! Besides scrapbooking I love to garden. In the spring and summer I divide my time between my scrapbook room and flowers gardens!

I started scrapbooking in 1999 after receiving an album "All About Me" as a birthday gift from my family. I took a beginners class by Creative Memories and was hooked. I'm amazed at how my much my style has changed over the years. I love to work with a mix of pattern papers and always try to add special little details to my layouts. A must have for me is my ink pads! It's like the icing on the cake! I also love having a good sketch as the starting point for my layout.

January 6th 2012-Sketch Challenge

2012-01-06T00:00:00.004-05:00

Welcome to our very first challenge on the new year..

We are so excited and blessed to have made it through out these few years and we could not have made it without all of you.. So, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts..

To start off this year, we decided to share with you an original sketch by Nanné.. Our design team has once again created some amazing layouts using our sketch and we hope that this sketch inspires you to join in on the fun.. Remember, you have two weeks to submit your project, it needs to be a new project and you need to take inspiration from our sketch..

We are so pleased this week to have returning Guest Designer Lisa Gregory joining for this challenge! She is well-known in the scrapbook world and is currently on the Design Team for Zva Creative and has used some of their newest products on her layout today! Below is what Lisa has shared regarding her personal life!

Hi, my name is Lisa Gregory and I live on the Gulf Coast of Florida. I am a Registered nurse by profession. I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have 2 grown children. Our son is married, lives nearby, and our daughter is away attending Le Cordon Bleu Academy studying to be a Chef and working at Disney World! I have been crafting my whole life, and found scrapbooking in 2005 when I was helping my son and girlfriend (now daughter in law) do their senior projects. A scrapbook of their lives. I took one walk down the scrapbook isle at Michaels, and was hooked! My style is ever changing as I play with new techniques. I can go from soft shabby chic to down and dirty grunge depending on my mood. I am lucky to be able to lock myself away in my studio to create. Scrapbooking is therapy for me. Give me a little bit of sparkly bling and a handful of flowers and a great sketch , and I am a happy girl!

And here is her awesome page! Many thanks for joining us this week, Lisa!

Be sure to visit Lisa at her blog: http://what-a-beautiful-mess.blogspot.com/.

What a beautiful mess

And ...

We also have a new Design team member that has joined out happy scrappy family.. Please welcome Agnieszka aka Bellaidea

My name is Agnieszka but in the scrapbooking world I go by Bellaidea.

Together with my husband - I'm still dating him - we're taking care of our two treasures - a Girl and a Boy.

I love travelling, taking photos, oranges and African bush aroma, cheesecake with real vanilla, Pavlova dessert, old; books, pictures and houses, doillies, trips with friends to Italy, evenings by the fireplace, milk chocolate from Lindl, mystery perfumes, nut ice-creams, reading books to my children(no matter they can read by themselves), audiobooks during long distance drives, praising people for their talent and creativity and meeting with other nice ladies for a cup of coffee.

I scrapbook for many reasons-to preserve memories, to make my kids remember I always care about them, to have MY time when I need it, to keep in touch with all my scrap-friend all over the work.

My style is eclectic , part of romantic, touch of whimsy,I like to use lace, chipbords, doillies, torned corners, fussy cutting etc but never forget the most important is the photo and a story. Sometimes I hide my journaling when it`s very personal...

I design my favourite 12×12 Lo's for several websites. It satisfies me strongly. I`m very happy about cooperation with SOUS!Thank you so much for invitation, it was very nicw suprise for me.

I love challenges and I often take part in them. Sometimes the effects are really surprising.

I cordially invite you to my blog, where you can find out what I'm doing at late night when my family members're sleeping: http://bellaideascrapology.blogspot.com/

Dec 30 Die Cut Challenge, Snowflakes. lots and lots of snowflakes

2011-12-30T00:00:00.092-05:00

Yikes! December 30th, really ??? Just blink your eyes and 2012 will be here!! We here at Stuck on U Sketches want to pause and wish you a wonderful New Year!! The great part about a New Year is that it is in so many ways a fresh start .. whatever that may be in your life right now. We hope that it is wonderful or that there will blessings to get you through if it is not. Thanks again for being a part of SOUS!!

So, our thoughts turn toward Winter and for those of us in the Northern Hemispshere, that may mean snow!! Some more than others! In honor of the white stuff, our Die Cut Challenge this time is:

SNOWFLAKES!

Remember that your project must be new as of December 30 and you must use your Die Cut machine .. any brand is fine. Hopefully, some of you found a new one under the Christmas tree and this is your chance to get it out of the box and start using it!

We are excited to show you what our Die Cut Team came up with this time around. (And a special thank you to these ladies for contributing during such a busy month!)

Dec 9 ~ Original Sketch ~ and new DT member!

2011-12-09T00:00:00.026-05:00

Happy Friday, everyone! Wow, it's already the second Friday of December! The holidays will be here before we know it! So, let's try and get some scrapping in, shall we? Layouts are always a great gift idea for those hard-to-buy for parents and grandparents!

We are very excited this week to present another original SOUS sketch. This one was done by myself (Sandi) and I was so pleased with the way it turned out. This was actually my very first digitally-designed sketch and 'm happy to report that they have become very addicting. I have already designed 4 more! There will be another one later this month plus, I have March's all done as well! So, enough about that!

This week we are very proud to anounce a new addition to our sketch team. We are sure that many of you already know her! Please welcome our friend and now colleague, Andrea Amu! Here's a little bio from Andrea herself:

"Hello! My name is Andrea Amu and I am born and raised in Pennsylvania where I live with my fun-loving hubby of 11 years. Scrapbooking has been one of my biggest obsessions since 1997 and now it seems as though I've caught the card making fever too! When I’m not busy being crafty, I can also be found working part-time as a substitute Preschool teacher. I find enjoyment in shopping at craft and antique/junque shops, and collecting Old World stoneware and unique pieces of silver and gemstone jewelry. Currently, I am a designer for Core'dinations Cardstock and I’ve been fortunate to have had my designs published in Memory Makers publications, Northridge Publishing Media’s CARDS, CREATE, Simply Handmade and Cricut magazines, Paper Crafts, Pinecone Press, and Blue Media and Quarry books. I am really glad to now be a part of the Stuck On U Sketches Design Team and I look forward to much inspiration along the way."

Here is Andrea's take on our sketch:

Welcome, Andrea! Now, let's see some what the DT did with the sketch this time, shall we?

Dec 2nd Die Cut challenge "O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree"

2011-12-02T00:00:00.105-05:00

Wow, December .. already?!! This year has flown by!

Here at Stuck on U Sketches' Die Cut Challenge we want to usher in this fabulous

season with a holiday-related "cut." For this challenge, we would like to see some die cut

Christmas trees!

Your tree can be done on a card, layout or altered item ..any format really.

Our original thought was of the evergreen decorated variety. But if it is an outdoorsy tree

covered with snow, that is okay too. Let your imagination be your guide. We do ask

that your projects be New as of 12-02-2011 and that you use a die or die cutter.

Remember the idea of these challenge is to use our machines more.

So, are you ready for some design team inspiration? Here we go:

2011-11-18T00:00:00.083-05:00

Hello Papercrafters! We hope that you all had a wonderful

week and are enjoying all the things that this season brings us!

There is so much inspiration in this time of year

with all the warm colors outdoors, the scents of baking and of course

all the amazing posted projects by our fellow

crafters! It's an exciting time of year!

Today is our Die Cut Challenge day and today's challenge is..

Thanksgiving Table

Now we understand that many of you around that world

obviously do not celebrate Thanksgiving as we do in the States.

However this challenge is more about those warm family meals

then anything! So think table decorations, turkey, pie, all that yumminess ...

just something centered around that special family meal.

Here is what our Design Team has done~

Who loves working with die cuts? We do....LOL

We wanted to inspire you to use a die cut that you might not use on an everyday project..

Sept 23 Die cut challenge "Heart"

2011-09-23T00:00:00.090-04:00

Happy Friday, scrappers! And welcome to another Die Cut challenge here at Stuck on U. So ... have you been wondering what the Cut will be this week? Well, we are in LOVE with this one and think you will be too! HEARTS! Yes, we want to see hearts and yes, we realize this is not February BUT .. we (well, I) thought it would be something very verstile and that lots of peole could use in one way or another. Hmm, probably being TOO easy on you this week! So, let's see what you can do that is creative and different! And if not that, then any old HEART will do. We just ask that this be a NEW project as of 9/23/2011.

In the way of anouncements, we did want to let you know that Fern Riley will be stepping down from the team at the end of this month to spend more time with her family. She has been with us well over a year and we thank her for her enormous contribution to this team. Fern, we'll miss you .. but we know where you live. Put the coffe on! LOL

Alrighty then, time for the big Design Team reveal. Here we go!

Sept 2 Original sketch

2011-09-02T00:00:00.142-04:00

Wow! September?!! Are you kidding me?!! This has been the fastest summer ever. The days just seem to slip by so quickly. But even so, we have a new month and a fresh start! It's Labor Day weekend here in the U.S. and "back to school" time. So, some of you may have a long weekend and we hope to give you some scrappy inspiration!

As you know, Nanne, Leah and I have been wanting to provide you with some original SOUS sketches and this is my first one! I sort if did it on the fly one morning but was delighted that it actually made for a great page! Since then I have learned how to do some digital scrapbooking solely for the purpose of designing sketches. My next two will appear in December. Can't wait to share those! The three of us are really excited to be designing our own sketches and we continue to want to hear your feedback about how you like them and exactly what you are looking for in a sketch. We DO have several upcoming sketches with multiple photos, so hang in there ! And we also heard you want some double pages, so we are working on those as well.

Before we share what the design team has done this week, we wanted to show you this month's blog candy generously donated by Alda Stevens at Flying Unicorn Store. We will be selecting a winner from all the participants in this month's challenges. The more you play, the more chances you have to win. But your projects must be NEW as of the date of the challenge to be entered in the drawing.

Okay, now let's see how the DT has used this week's sketch. Remember, you will have 2 weeks to upload your project.

Good Friday to you all!
We are excited to share only our second new Die Cut Challenge with you today!
We hope that you enjoyed the first challenge and the DT projects..we have more to share today!
So even if the kids are back to school and Summer
might feel like its ended..it hasn't yet! And a big part of Summer are those beautiful blue skies.

So that leads us to our second challenge...

Die Cut Challenge:

"Sky"

Can't you just feel the Summer fun!

This challenge is super open. Build a sky scene, use a birdie, balloon, airplane.

Play around with clouds or rocket ships. Anything that will remind us of the great blue above!

Here is what the team put together:

Another Friday has found its way to us and we couldn't be happier!

Hopefully Summer has been well for you all and you've all had the chance

to have some fun and get some scrappy time in!

As we've said before we are hoping to bring you more original sketches

and I've created this one with Summer travel in mind.

Of course there are many, many shapes that could take the place and

of course you will see many variations that our DT has done.

When designing sketches you often make things that you are personally

drawn to but we also wanted to ask you...

What kind of sketches do you like?

What would you like to see us use?

Multiple photos, more double pages?

Let us know by leaving a comment and we'll try very hard to bring

you what you are looking for!

Here is today's sketch..

And our DT projects..

August 12, 2011 Die Cut Challenge "Play"

2011-08-12T00:00:00.085-04:00

Today is such an exciting day for Stuck on U Sketches!

You may or may not know that the leaders here had all met and became friends

over at the Cricut MB. So much of what is posted here will often have

many Cricut die cuts on it. That got us thinking and so lead to the new challenges

we'll be posting here! Here is some more rules to play..first these are die cut

challenges. You can use store bought die cuts, but we are mostly looking at

getting the most from our electronic cutters. So many of us will be using Cricut

cuts, we are still more then open to using any other machine out there!

Let's just use what we got! LOL! A challenge itself! =)

We wanted to keep these challenges light and fun and really more about using

our machines then working on using a particular cartridge.

If you have any suggestions for these challenges just leave them in the comment

section below. We'd love to have hear your ideas!

We also want to open these challenges open to any papercrafting project!

Cards, layouts, altered items, mini's, tags, sewing, etc.

And what is our first ever Die Cut Challenge....

"Play"

Interpret this anyway you'd like! You can use the word, the theme, a toy or activity or

anything else you can come up with!

And now onto our wonderful Die Cut Design Team...

2011-08-05T00:00:00.168-04:00

Well friends..stick with us today. This may be the longest post ever!LOL!

We have some HUGE news to share today!

(and you'll have to wait til the end to find out the winner for last week's blog hop candy!)

Nanne, Sandi and myself have been thinking about this for awhile and are

excited to be making the announcement...

We'll be adding new challenges to Stuck on U Sketches!

We will still continue to bring you sketches every other week and hopefully keep

bringing you original sketches as well. We will no longer be doing tutorials but instead

we will be adding Die Cut Challenges!

We are very, very excited about these changes and hope that you will be too!

Today we'd like to share our new sketch challenge and our DT projects but also

introduce you to our new Die Cut DT. You'll see some familiar faces from sketches

but also some new and fresh talent...

Help us welcome to our team...

Faith Abigail

My name is Faith Abigail and I have been very happily married to my husband, George, for five years. I work as a freelance makeup artist and I'm an accomplished photographer; I enjoy dance, theatre, history and reading. I have always been involved in the Fine Arts and I come from a very crafty family; I began paper crafting last year and quickly discovered a passion for it.

Rechelle

Hi! My name is Rechelle Pace. I am a full-time wife, mother, computer software/web/blog/iPhone application developer, and scrapper.

I live with my family in North Texas. I’m married to my wonderful husband and best friend, Bobby. We met 20 years ago in college and we have been happily married for almost 16 years! We have a smart and handsome 15 year old son, Justin, who keeps us very busy with high school football practice and games! This fall he will be a sophomore and a quarterback for the JV football team.

Included in our family is Lucy, a Poodle/Chihuahua mix. Somehow, that mixture makes Lucy look exactly like Toto in the Wizard of Oz!

I have been a computer software/web/blog/iPhone application developer for 16 years but when I am not doing that or doing something football related, I’m scrapping!

I started scrapbooking shortly before my son was born. I enjoy card making and other paper crafts but scrapbooking is definitely my passion, obsession, and addiction! If you ever see my scrapbook room, you will know it is true! When I bought my first Cricut, my passion, obsession, and addiction for scrapbooking intensified! I love the versatility it gives me for creating and embellishing my scrapbook pages and other paper crafts!

I am so excited to be a part of the Stuck on U Sketches Die Cut Design Team. I am honored to have the opportunity to create alongside such a talented group of ladies! I hope to inspire everyone around me to create beautiful and fun projects of their own and to be inspired by you!

Tammy

My name is Tammy Edwards, and I live in North Carolina with my husband of almost 33 years and our beagle, Lexi. We have two grown daughters, who are both married to wonderful guys, a granddaughter, and a grandson, that we love to spoil. When our oldest daughter announced her first pregnancy, I decided to make a scrapbook for the baby. I have been hooked ever since. I use lots of Cricut die cuts on my creations. After seeing a Cricut demonstrated in August of 2006, I purchased one that same day. I don't know how I'd scrapbook without it! While I love doing both layouts and cards, I find that I make many more cards now than scrapbook pages, mostly because there is always an occasion that needs a card. It is sort of like a ministry to me. I hope that my cards are an encouragement to others. And, by having a blog and being on this awesome design team, I hope my creations are an inspiration to others!

Theresa

Hi, my name is Theresa Kelly. I live in Kentucky now, moved here from Las Vegas, but grew up in California, I know, what a culture shock! I live out in the Country, I’m married to my Best Friend and I have 3 children, 30, 27, and 10 (he keeps me on my toes, lol) I also have 3 grandkids, 7, 5, and 2, they are still in Las Vegas so I still get to visit. I started scrappin when my youngest was born and haven’t looked back. I love to paint, sew, garden and will try any kind of craft and add it to my projects whenever I can. I love my Cricut and use it at least a couple of times week and have a really hard time scrapping with out it, LOL!. I love to go to auctions, antique stores, flea markets and can’t drive by a yard sale without stopping and I usually find a treasure to alter and turn into something new. I am so excited to be on the Stuck On U Sketches Die Cut Team and looking forward to working with the all the wonderful gals and hopefully I can inspire you to grab your Die Cut Machine and Make a Memory!

And those lovely ladies you know and love...

Welcome to our Summer Mini album blog hop!!

July 22nd-2011 Sketch and new DT member introduction

2011-07-22T00:00:00.097-04:00

Thank you all so much for joining us on our last sketch challenes and I'm so spyched you all liked that sketch..LOL and so, this weeks sketch reveal has another original sketch for SOUS made by me, Nanné.. I think these are so much fun and I absolutely adore what the DT members have made using it.. I'm so blessed to have so many wonderful ladies in my life that inspire all of us to create something amazing and original..

I hope you want to join in on the sketch challenge this week and remember, we have our monthly blog candy give away fro those that enter all of the challenges..

and we also have a little announcment to make..

We have a new addition to our Sketch team and her name is Jane Stirling..

Please welcome her to the team everybody, we are so lucky to have her...

Hello, my name is Jane Stirling. My husband and I are Scottish, however, we emigrated to Perth, Western Australia in 2000, eleven years yesterday, actually. Thus the Scossie Jane – Scottish/Aussie.

you can find my blog by clicking HERE

I have a wonderful scrap tolerant husband, two adult children, and three adorable granddaughters, who are the subjects of most of my layouts.

I have been scrapping since 2004, and still have not defined my style – elegant/vintage maybe. I don’t do whimsical, not yet, anyway. Things are known to change quickly in the scrappy world!

Like my love of sketches. I had never used a sketch until the appearance of a new blog called Stuck On U Sketches in 2009. I used their debut sketch on 1st October 2009 and have only missed a few since then!

So, when Nanné, Sandi and Leah invited me to be a part of the SOUS Sketch Team I was honoured and excited, and did not hesitate in accepting their invitation.

I am looking forward to being part of this great team, along with the rest of the DT, and hope I can inspire you as much as they have inspired me.

Hugs

Jane J

and then lets get to the goodies shall we.. I once again have to say, that the DT have outdone themselves and I'm so psyched about how different everyone's layouts are:
