{Rebecca} Sketchabilities Sketch 89

I know I'm a little bit prejudice, but I'm quite convinced that I have the most adorable little girl. I finally printed off some photos and am starting to scrapbook them. Sofia is only 8 months old, but I already feel like she is so big when I look at this photo from her taken at 4 weeks old. She was such a gorgeous little thing and she's grown up so much!

I loved this sketch from Sketchabilities and this may have been the quickest I ever finished a page. It took about an hour. Sometimes I can spend days on a page! But with a sketch like this, it just came together so beautifully.

"I just love this."

 

Thanks for looking and be sure to take a peak at the beautiful inspiration the rest of the design team has for you!

{Rebecca} Memory Maze April DT Reveal

I'm back for with another round of fun cards with Memory Maze products! This month, I have a bit of a fun twist that I'd like to share and highlights the versatility of the product. Every couple of weeks I have some very special young ladies come to my house and we usually spend the afternoon crafting. This month, when I pulled out my supplies they spotted the Memory Maze Stack-Ums and were quite excited to try something new. 

3D Card Stack-Ums

Isn't this a fun card?! I love the chickens and the country feel. There is a bit of fussy cutting, but my 15 year old did a fantastic job with that, and layering the pieces together as well.

These cards were made by my girls, aged 15 down through 5. It just shows you how versatile the Satck-Ums are, whether you are an experienced crafter, or just beginning, they are great starting points for any project! We chose to embellish a few of the cards with a few extras, but for the most part, these are all included with the Stack-Ums when you purchase them.

This last card is made by an adorable 5 year old. She had so much fun cutting this out and putting it together. Isn't this darling?

"A Pirates Life for Me"

Of course I couldn't let the girls have all the fun. I joined in on the action as well with this adorable pirate themed Stack-Um as well as joining it with chipboard from Memory Maze as well. 

I cut 3 pirate layers out and with 3D tape stacked them one atop the other and adhered them to the card. The chipboard was sprayed with glimmer mist and even though its a boy card, I love the way it shimmers.

"Happy 6th Birthday"

One last card to share with you all, a fun birthday card for my six year old brother. The chipboard adds a fun dimension and I added another layer by stacking the chipboards. 

I sprayed the chipboard with glimmer mists (again), its such a fun way to dress up the chippies and I can create perfectly matched embellishments for individual projects.

{Rebecca} Sketchabilities 88

I kept checking my blog this morning, waiting for my post to come live, but then realized that I had forgotten to even schedule a post for today, hence the quick post, because I didn't plan on making a post!

Thanks to another great sketch from Sketchabilities, I have my second page for the wedding album done. This was such a versatile sketch and just perfect for the page I wanted to accompany the first.

My brother and his wife were married at a heritage town so to using the vintage ribbons, buttons, and dictionary pages really helps to tie in the wedding theme to the pages a little.

I also used my Memory Maze chipboard and heavily misted it with some Glimmer Mist. Love the texture it adds to the page!

Be sure to check out the Sketchabilities site, the inspiration from the design team this week is incredible!
