TSF Online Super Bowl Crop!

I didn't get very much time to scrapbook this weekend. I ended up working most of Saturday and I had to get groceries and go to Jason's hockey game today. The weekends always seem to go so fast.

I did do one layout for Sharon's Super Bowl Sunshine challenge. It started out as a double-page layout, but ended up being just a single. I struggled a bit to start, but in the end I was happy with the result.

Sorry about the image. I broke my camera and I had to use my phone and the lighting wasn't the best. You get the idea, I hope!

'U' Card

Sketch Support issued the design team a product challenge and we all received this fabulous package of products from Jillibean Soup! I was super excited to receive this in the mail and get started.

My first project was using this weeks card sketch. We were only allowed to use what came in the package plus basic supplies. This was a bit challenging so I had to put my thinking cap on.

I used one of the larger journaling sprouts and wrapped it in the baker's twine. I punched out a scalloped circle from one of the pattern papers and layered it on top. I added the letter 'U' and added a bit more twine.

The reason I chose the letter 'U' was so that I would have some flexibility when I wanted to add my sentiment. Things like U Rock, U are so sweet, Happy Birthday to U and U Make Me Smile are all possibilities.

I will reveal my other creations using this Jillibean kit over the next couple of weeks. Be sure to check out the Sketch Support blog for a chance to win a prize and check out all the DT creations using these products and the card sketch.

I also entered this card in the Little Red Wagon challenge this week. Be sure to check out their great submissions too!

I Just Love You To Pieces

Today I am being featured over on the Sketch Support blog along with a few other ladies from the DT. Be sure to stop over there and check them out. You can print out this weeks sketch and hopefully you will be inspired to make a card of your own.

I decided to flip the sketch and created my card vertically. I used a heart shaped doily as the backdrop on my card. I couldn't resist adding some stitching to the outer edge and the inner heart.

I haven't used my stamps in a while so I decided to pull them out and give them some attention. I love to paper piece and this was a perfect image to work with.

Ironically I used a sentiment that worked well with the paper piecing theme.

All the papers were from my scrap bin. I think they are from Pebbles Inc. The stamp is from Stamping Bella and I did use my brown Vintage Photo Distress Ink on this card too.

I also entered this card in the challenge over on the Cards blog. They were looking for cards using doilies!
