Dot & Whimsy

The October Sketches are now up at 

This month, Authentique is featuring one of the newest 

collections, Peaceful.  Peaceful is the perfect adjective for the

winter-themed cardstock papers and stickers.  It reminds me of

a fresh snowfall and a late day's winter sky...peaceful indeed!

Below we have this month's card & layout sketch.  I've chosen

to go the card route again this time around :)

I think this feathered friend is just beautiful!  I just him from one of the papers, distressed
the edge a bit and then embellished with a soft velvet ric-rak.  After punching the
snowflakes from one of the Peaceful papers, I glittered each one, attached to the
card front with foam dots and lastly tied on a large button.

 If you have some time and would like to participate in the
October Sketch Challenge, please do!
There is a prize-pack involved to a lucky winner :)

I'm back blogging tomorrow with my first project for
The Paper Bakery
See you then...Good Night!

We're mixing things up a bit over at 

this week with a product

Each Design Team Member was asked to create a project

using THREE (3) different collections from Imaginisce.

I went with a 12x12 layout and a neat sketch from Page Maps

I used patterned papers from {Hello Cupcake: Red Dot}

{Sole Sisters: Stripe} and {Makin' Waves: Blue Chevron}

These are ALL the reverse side patterns of the papers, which makes most ALL

Imaginisce products easy to Mix & Match :)

Cardstock by Coredinations.

Here is the sketch:

And yes, I stayed exactly with the sketch...as if you couldn't tell all ready LOL

It's a week's worth of MIX & MATCH projects, so come on by and see us

MY SCRAPBOOK NOOK
It's Wednesday and that means that I have another Cards Challenge.

This week it's a CARDS SKETCH CHALLENGE to be exact!

The Sketch:

My Card:

For my interpretation of the sketch, I moved everything to the center.

Using the July Nook Kit, I layered a couple of the Jillibean Soup

labels and added a punched heart to the center.  

Everything is from the kit with the exception of the punched leaves,

orange pearls and jute twine.  

My Scrapbook Nook always have the BEST kits with the most 

up-to-date papers and embellishments!
