Scrap Our Stash ABC 123 Blog Hop September 27-29 2013

Welcome to Scrap Our Stash ABC ~123 Blog Hop

You should have arrived here from Lindsey's blog.   If not, click HERE and head back to the beginning of the hop.   You will not want to miss any of the designer’s awesome inspiration and/or the details on how to enter into the SOS prize drawings!  

The design team was challenged to create a layout inspired by our choice of one of three sketches and our choice of alphas (stash items) to include on our layouts.

Here is my layout inspired by Sketch #2 and using piecharts and an overlay.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the polaroid "happy" frame overlay and also my piecharts.  I used lots of layering with the My Mind's Eye Crazy Boy Collection as well as a chipboard laser embellishment hashtag word #cute from a new company called Creative Embellishments that I painted with a red paint dabber.

Let's Capture These Sketches - Sketch #153

It's Friday!!!! That means it's our reveal over at Let's Capture These Sketches.  This layout has a lot of meaning to me.  When my husband and I were dating, we stopped at this same place in Banff National Park to take a photo of the mountains that we both love so much.  To make a long story short, this is about ten years after the first photo was taken.  We have changed a bit with a little more weight and gray hairs, but hey, isn't that what growing old together is all about?

Together We Live, Laugh, Play

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the piecharts and stars and sprinkled some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists randomly on the layout.  The papers are some scraps I had of Simple Stories "Summer Fresh" Collection.  I am loving Simple Stories at the moment!

Thanks for popping by and please check out what the sweet gals at Let's Capture These Sketches did and also see the sketch that inspired us.

Have a great Friday!
