Together | Sheena Rowlands | Sketch

Hi there UK Scrap Addicts x

This month our challenge is to use a fabulous sketch created especially for us by Laura Rumble. I love a good sketch so was well up for this challenge.

Together.


When I first looked at the sketch I turned it around a few times but in fact I settled on using it exactly as it was.


I'm not really a star person but a sketch is just a guide or starting point so I thought about layering hearts instead I had a good look through my stash and dug out any ranges with hearts on including Pebbles - Forever my Always, Crate Paper - Main Squeeze and Heart Day.


I picked out stickers, chipboard pieces, fringed and tasselled hearts and then cut a few more from patterned papers then layered them together on foam pads up the left side of my patterned paper background. I added in a few sentiment banners in between.


I only wanted to use one photo so I added a couple of journalling cards to help balance it & give me a small place to write on. I found a padlock stick as I was finishing this page so added a cluster around my title so I could use it on here.

I finished up with a Perspective title and mini hearts to add another pop of blue.



I hope this sketch and my layout provide some inspiration to get scrapping. Please share your creations with us over on our Facebook group page.

Till next time x

New Hair| Zoe Hailey| Fussy Cutting


Last months theme of sparkle was certainly perfect for me..... this months theme of fussy cutting however, has to be one of my least go to techniques, so it certainly challenged me to do something different!

I found the most perfect paper; Wallflower in the Crate Paper, All Heart collection and actually it was quite enjoyable cutting out the flowers and having a sing-along to my favourite 80's hits (luckily this blog comes without a video or sound!)

Cutting into 'All Heart' and creating a layout about my hair cut




The fussy cutting bug must have struck me because on this layout I ended up fussy cutting stars and flowers from washi tape too (something I would have never expected myself to do!)





I have clustered the flowers (some with dimension), around my image and I like the shape it creates.


My journaling is tucked away in the tag at the top and I absolutely love the charm and tassel on the tag. I have to be honest and say, I was never really sure what to do with these other than to hang them like a bunting decoration, so I can see me repeating this on a few more layouts in the future!

I rarely scrapbook about me, so it was nice to do a page without the children in it for a change!
