DT Reveals, a Toot and Imaginisce sketch

June Imaginisce Sketch

I used Imaginisce Lucy Bird for this layout. The title on the photo is cut from one of their papers as well as the super cute adorable bird and the butterflies too. I might take another pic because you can't read the sticker on the left side (it says you make me smile).



TOOT!!!!
I have some exciting news to share also. I will be the July Guest Designer over at Back Porch Memories. I got to create a super fun layout based on a Pagemaps sketch and I'm so excited to see what kit I will get to play with. Hope to see you over there.

Here is the fun layout I created for them. I just love the little monkey on the side.


Now on to the DT Reveals

First up is the June 15 sketch from My Sketch World I'm not thrilled with how it came out, it just seems a little bare to me. But its ok.



Now the June kits from Scrapdango

This is the June Sugar kit which features Lily Bee's Hello Sunshine line.


This is the kit I got to play with and I was super excited. I wanted these papers from the first time I saw them.

Here are a couple cards I created, unfortunately I had zero card mojo so I went over to Pagemaps and checked out some of the June card sketches.






This is based on the June sketch that was created by Carly over at the dango.

Sneak Peeks for the July Kit at Scrapdango

Heather said to give you guys some sneak peeks for the July kit. I got to play with the Lily Bee Hello Sunshine line. YEAH!!!! I've been wanting to play with these papers and it took a LOT of willpower not to buy them when I first saw them.

Hope you like the peeks and the FULL reveal will be at Scrapdango on the 15th. Love the yellow felt border Heather sent me!!

Scrapdango DT projects

I've been soooo bad about blogging lately. I never even uploaded some of my DT work, so I will be added April & May's layouts and cards.

I got to work with the FAB Crate Paper Brooke line for Scrapdango's April Spice kit. I just loved this collection and this Awesome kit. As you can see I absolutely adored working with this kit and created 4 layouts (including a 2pager) & 3 cards and I still have more paper and supplies to play with. Did I say how much I liked playing with this kit! LOL!!



This layout was based on the April sketch which was created by Nikki. I loved that this sketch gave me a great bases to showcase this Rhino photo that I have wanted to get scrapped for awhile.











Are you ready for May
Now in May I worked with another Fantastic kit. This kit was Scrapdango's Sugar kit and Featured Bo Bunny's Sophie line. I know I sound like a broken record but I totally loved this kit too.

As soon as I opened up my kit I saw the sticker sheet and I immediately knew I wanted to scrap this photo of DD & her friend. New supplies are great for the mojo.



I'm sure when Bo Bunny created this line they didn't think it would suit Disney photos but I was sooooo inspired that I created 3 Disney layouts.



This layout is based on May's sketch which was created by Kerryn. The sketch was great and I could create soooo many different layouts with this sketch.




I wanted an accent on this card and after deciding nothing was working I got out Imaginesce's I top tool and created a coordinating brad for the flower. I love how it was the perfect finishing touch and coordinates perfectly. I will definitely be using this tool again.




Have you checked out Scrapdango this month and seen all the fun and fabulous projects everyone has been creating. Come on over and check it out.

I'm excited to FINALLY get to share that I'm a guest designer this week over at Liz Qualman's blog She creates Sketches and then has 3 guest designers show off how they used them. This was my first week. I will be featured 2 additional times this year also. What an AWESOME sketch Liz created this week. I just LOVE that she combined vertical & horizontal photos on the same sketch!!!



Hope you ladies check it out. It was the first thing I created after coming back from vacation so I didn't stray from the sketch. Didn't really have the mojo flowing yet, LOL!!!

LOAD Contest
Scrapdango is having another BIG month long contest going on in June. Hope you come on over to the dango and check it out. There will be LOTS of inspiration from the DT.

New Beginnings Crop at Scrapdango Starts



We are going to have lots of fun this week at Scrapdango to celebrate Heather's new Ownership at Scrapdango. I just posted my challenge over there so gooo check it out.

March DT reveal

Our march reveal was delayed and I forgot to post it here on my blog,OOPS! I worked with the Sugar kit which was FAB. It featured Pink Pasilee's Bayberry Cottage papers.

Sibling Love
I rolled the paper edges by first wetting the edges just a little and when it dried it stayed rolled. Did LOTS of fussy cutting on this one??


Blowing out the Candles
This is based on the March sketch on the Scrapdango Blog.


Cowboy party
I used some Prima Packaging and sprayed some Blue maya mist around it to create the masked effect for the title.


Rub a Dub Dub


Also got a card completed also.

Scrapdango's Feb DT Reveal

I got to play with the Feb Spice kit which featured papers from My Mind's Eye - Quite Contrary line. So far I completed a 2 pager and 3 single page layouts and I have lots of paper still left.

Heather, is the new owner over at Scrapdango and she is giving EVERYONE who signs up for a six or twelve month subscription a FREE bottle of Glimmer Mist. I just LOVE Glimmer Mist, its awesome stuff. If you have been wanting to get some but didn't want to pay for Glimmer Mist this is a terrific way to get a free bottle and you get the wonderful Scrapdango kits along with it.

On to the reveal!
Being Loved - by a kid isn't always an easy job Signed - the cat

Enjoy Lazy Days Since I was already creating My Mind's Eye LOs with this kit I used their challenge #9 for this LO. Its based on the sketch for their challenge. The papers are from the Quite Contrary line, the die cut at the bottom is from Wild Ride and the Flowers I cut from Bloom & Grow papers.
