Dusty Attic June Sketch

Welcome!

 

Today I thought I would have

 a go at a challenge.

 

Haven't done one for a while.

 

Found a gorgeous sketch

over at

 The Dusty Attic Blog

 and decided to play along.

The Sketch.

I have used one of

DA's Vintage Frames

and a

DA Paris Post Mark



Close ups of the detail on the frame,

 achieved with

 Ranger Distress Crackle Paint

 "Picket Fence",

 and

 Pinflair Buff-It

 "Antique Silver"

 &

 "Antique Gold".

The papers, frame and Collectables

 are from the

 "Story Teller" Collection

 from

 Kaiser.

The gorgeous large flower

 is from

Tresors de Luxe

and the little flowers are

Magnolia.

 

The stunning lace is also from

 Tresors de Luxe,

 though sadly it is mostly covered up!

The wee foliage die is from

 Tattered Lace - a new favourite.

 

The black bling flourishes are from

 Zva Creative.

The photo is one of my favourite

 from our trip to Paris last year,

 and I am so happy with the layout.

 

And I got to use some

 DA chippies too!

Thanks for dropping in

Addit - I won June Layout of the Month at Dusty Attic with this layout. Well pleased xx

Sketch Reveal at SOUS!

 

OMG - where did those two

 weeks go?

 

It's time for the new

 Sketch Reveal

 at

Stuck On U Sketches.

 

My interpretation.

 

 Loving the vivid colours of this

 Kaiser collection. 

 

The multi photo sketch

by our Nanne.

 

However, I only used one photo.

 

OMG - I broke the rules....LOL.

 

I usually follow a sketch to the max.

 

Go Me!!

The papers are the

"Curiosity"

collection from

 Kaiser.

I've also used the Collectables

 from the collection, which

 were perfect for

 the photo.

I've used a

 Punch Bunch

 punch for the leaves.



The hexagons have been cut on

 Cricut

 "Accent Essentials"

cart.

The photo is oldest

Granddaughter, Rebekah,

 back in 2010, when

 she was three.

 

Posing on top of a

 Bob Tail Lizard - Australia

 of course!

Another page in the album.

Love it!

Remember, you are playing

 along this month for a chance

to win any three sets of your

 choice from the

 Cutting Café.

 

We would love to have

 you join us.

 

So, head on over to the

 Stuck On U Sketches Blog,

 and see what my fellow DT

 have done with the sketch,

 and also meet the newest

 members of the Sketch Team,

 who are being introduced today.

June Mood Board Release at Black With 2....

Welcome peeps....

 

We're into June, and that means

 Reveal Day

 at

 Black With 2!

 

This month's Mood Board is totally yummy...

 

Using the colours

Chocolate

 &

 Raspberry!

 

The required word is

 Sweetness.

 

 And the sketch is

 sweet too!

 

All on a black base!

My interpretation...

As soon as I saw the colours

 on the Mood Board I knew

 exactly what papers I was

 going to use -

 "Bittersweet"

 from

 Basic Grey.

 

This collection was one of my

 first 'to die for' collections

when it was released,

and I still have a

 ton of it!!!

I have used sweet photo's

 of youngest Granddaughter,

Emma, and repeated

 the photo twice!

A few buttons for embellishments

 (too sweet) and the

papers do the rest!

I hope you will have time

to join our challenge

 over at

 Black With 2

 this month.

 

Over at the Blog my fellow

 DT girls have some stunning

 takes on this month's

Mood Board - me thinks I

might have to give

 mixed media a go!!!

 

Next month I am going

 to use stencil's!

Watch this space

 - aaaaaargh.....

 

Thanks for dropping in
