Talented Friends of Crafty and Green Project #1

**If you are looking for PurpleFuntastick Design Team Post, Click HERE**

I cannot tell you how happy the two posts today have made me! Since starting my new job my craft time has been nil. Not one to shirk my responsibilities, I made sure that I got my projects done. Today's project is based on this sketch:

I had some pictures from my daughter's Memorial Day Marching Band Parade. I also got the Quarter Note cartridge for Christmas that I was itching to use. Here is my take on the sketch:

The corner notes were cut at 2 1/4" and the smaller notes were 1 3/4" for the shadow and 1 1/2" for the white part of the note. I used Red Stickles for the lettering. The border behind the pic is the newest Creative Memories Border Maker System cartridge, Double Heart Chain. As I stated in my other post, the border maker comes back in stock around Feb 8th. If you are interested in seeing how the border maker works, here is a video:

 

Thanks to Tina for having me today and for giving me the inspiration to preserve a memory. Until next time...

Sweet Stamping Treats: Sketch Challenge

Greetings my wonderful crafting peeps! The team was given a sketch challenge and this is what I came up with:

These little guys just made me smile. I used some ribbon from my scrap pile and card stock from a chain store. I use the Stampin' Up Snow Burst stamp and my gold Ink It Up stamp pad. The red jewels are Recollections I believe. I colored the stamp with colored pencils and markers. I hope that you stop by

Pencil Lines Sketch 06

Welcome back to the current installment of the Pencil Lines sketch challenge. I started this layout and it took on a life of it's own. I titled it "Dream a Little Dream". What is life without  hopes and dreams. Here is the layout that I made:

I love this cutout from Elegant Edges

Here is a sneak peak into my dreams

I used the buttons as bullet points and used Stickles to outline the butterfly and make antennae.

I hope that you enjoyed my layout and that you will come and play along with us at Pencil Lines. Until next time....
