Hot Stuff

Hey y'all! It's Stephanie from Bits & Pieces (& Scraps) here today to share with you all my layout using the fabulous January 30 sketch. This amazing sketch was created by Leah Schaeffer & is perfect for this time of year! I didn't use Valentine pictures, only because I didn't have any printed & was being lazy, so I grabbed one that I had near my desk!

   
I used the Hey Kid collection from Pink Paislee for this page. I didn't follow the sketch completely, but went with the placement of my photo, embellishments and title. Instead of using a ribbon across the middle, I went with the scalloped border sticker (in black). I also fussy cut the red scalloped border from a piece of patterned paper.

 

The diamonds that I have popped up from my page are also fussy cut from a sheet of paper. Love them! This collection is so fun to create with, especially pages about kids!!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have found this inspirational & are ready to create with this sketch! Please link up if  you do. We love seeing your creations!!

Snapshots

Hello, Rosie here to share with you my layout based on the newest sketch :).
The patterns in the sketch were my starting point for this layout.

{All supplies: Daily Stories-Teresa Collins; ribbon from box of cupcakes}

The best way to mix patterns is to choose varying sizes, a large, medium and small print. The polka dot print paper is the large print and while the other 2 patterns are similar in the size, the larger white space on the striped paper reads as a bigger pattern than the gold/tan paper.
I've trimmed 3 photos and matted them together in place of the large photo on the sketch. This is a great way to adapt a one photo sketch for use with multiple photos.

I cut a strip of ribbon and adhered it with my tape gun to the layout. The bow was made using a tool called "The Bow Easy" and then attached to the layout with glue dots.

This layout came together very quickly so I hope you will take on this sketch and share your layouts with us here. 

Thanks for stopping by!
