K is for KISS

As in keep it simple. Another challenge from the My Sketch World ABC Crop. A layout using only one piece of patterned paper, one piece of cardstock, one journaling spot, one font in the title, and 3 simple embellishments.

Have a great day!

J is for....

Ok, I really am not a big fan of misspelling, but I can understand that you need to stretch things a bit when you are trying to come up with a challenge for every letter of the alphabet. This challenge from the My Sketch World ABC Crop was "J is for Jems," making a card with bling. Here's mine:

Have a great day!

I is for Ink

For this challenge at the My Sketch World ABC Crop, we were asked to create a layout using ink on it. I chose to stamp images on kraft cardstock and cut them out as embellishments - the crown, frame, sentiment, and airplane.

Have a great day!

H is for Hearts

A card challenge from the ABC Crop at My Sketch World - we were asked to use at least two hearts on a card, any color but red. I used Stampin' Up heart punches and Basic Gray papers.

Have a great day!

G is for Gratitude. Today is for remembrance.

Another layout challenge from the ABC Crop at My Sketch World. It was a hard layout for me; my sister Liz passed away 6 months ago this week, and that combined with the 10th anniversary of 9/11 has made this an emotionally difficult week. I am really grateful for the opportunity to revisit these memories of Liz through photos and to spend some time thinking about her.

Today is a day to stop and remember all of those you love, both those still here and those gone. To value your relationships and tell those around you what their presence in your life means to you.

E is for Extended Family

Yes, I know it's out of order,but I couldn't get a good shot while it was raining.

Have a great day!

F is for Four - ABC Crop at My Sketch World

For this challenge at My Sketch World, we had to use 4 elements on a card: flower, font, fringe, and fall colors. Here is my take:

D is for Die Cut

The day 4 challenge at the My Sketch World ABC crop was "D is for Die Cut." I used a Spellbinders pendant die set to create my card:

Have a great day!

C is for Color

The day 3 challenge at the My Sketch World ABC crop was a layout color combo challenge:

I used one of Lucy Chesna's sketches and the Basic Gray Lime Rickey collection to scrap this photo of mother's day:

Have a great day!

B is for Butterfly

I'm running a little behind at the My Sketch World ABC crop, but I'm catching up. The Day 2 prompt was "B is for Butterfly," and the challenge was to use 2 butterflies on a card. I used mists on a butterfly stamp to create the background and a sticker for the green butterfly.

Have a great day!

My Sketch World ABC Crop!

My Sketch World is hosting an awesome ABC crop. All month long there are challenges posted with alphabet cues. The first challenge was A is for Arrows - the challenge was to create a layout using at least 2 arrows. I actually made a minibook to take with me when I travel; I used a Maya Road arrow sheers keychain as the base for the book:

Have a great day!
