Stuck?! Sketches February 1, 2015 Sketch

Hello friends! If you are looking for the Scrapping Our Stash Blog Hop please go here.

Today is the new sketch reveal at Stuck?! Sketches and Laura Whitaker always has a sweet sketch to inspire us.

I thought I would scrap my granddog Elly and since Valentine's Day is only two weeks away, I thought I would make a Valentine's themed layout.  Here is my layout that I created with the February 1, 2015 Sketch.

and here are some more closeups of my layout.

I used the the Bella Blvd. Scattered Sprinkles Collection for most of the papers, some Bella Blvd. stickers, washi tape, and a pink crochet heart. I also added some flair from A Flair For Buttons and some cute embellishments from Pink Fresh Studios. I saw these cute wood veneer dogs by Studio Calico and thought they would be perfect for this layout.  Instead of the circle on the sketch, I created a heart from twine. Here is the colour palette that inspired my layout.

Finally, here is the sketch. I think I stayed pretty true to the sketch except made a twine heart shape instead of a circle shape on the background.

Check out what the other design team members created with the sketch at Stuck? Sketches and link up your take on the sketch. There is lots of time to link up and as always, there are wonderful prizes to be won.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Stuck?! Sketches February 1, 2014 Sketch And Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits

Happy Saturday!  Today at Stuck?! Sketches there is another awesome sketch by the talented Laura Whitaker.  This is also my second layout as a guest designer for Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits and I am having a blast creating with the January/February kit.  It's chock full of masculine papers, stickers and all sort of goodies.  The only thing from my stash was some twine, mists for the ink dots and a pen to make the faux stitching.  The circle die cut behind the photos if a digital file from Nicole Nowosad and the tags are a Silhouette file.

Here is the sketch that inspired this layout.

Thanks for stopping by and visiting.  Have a great day and do what you love!
