cutest monsters on the block | TMS 679

 Hi y'all! :)

I just love how cute this is! 

Everything but the floss and enamel dots is Bella Blvd.

under your spell | TMS 678

 Hello! Happy October to you (although I can hardly believe it!). :)

I've decided to mix things up a bit on my side this month- instead of layouts for Tuesday Morning Sketches, you'll be seeing cards. 

Here is the first wonderful sketch to kick off this month, #678:



The only deviation in my take is that I didn't center the rectangle:



supplies:
Patterned paper and die cuts: Simple Stories, sequins- Mixing my Way, stamp- Elle's Studio, twine- Trendy Twine (Annie's Paper Boutique)

I'm looking forward to seeing what you create with this sketch! Please check out the work from the team and share your take with us at TMS

 Hello! Life got a little crazy, so I missed last week, but I'm back today sharing the weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches

Here is sketch #677:


I used a cut file as one of the squares. 



Cutfile is from Peartree Cutfiles, flair is from A Flair for Buttons, and everthing else is Elle's Studio. Oh, mists are Heidi Swapp and Shimmerz.

all smiles | TMS 675

 Hello! It's that time- here is the weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches, #675:


This sketch leaves a lot of room for cuteness and space, so I chose to keep it pretty simple and fill my page with a large title (which is my interpretation of the line). 


Cutfile is from Peartree cutfiles, pp and stickers are Bella Blvd., mist is Shimmerz, white paint, and epoxy flair is ScrappinHappyStudio.

Be sure to check out the fantastic work from the team and share your take on this sketch with us as well! :)

hello fall | TMS 674

 Hey y'all! It's time for the weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches. The first one for September. Can you believe it?

Sketch 674:


Here is my take on the sketch. I used a cutfile in a hexagon shape to fill the center space vs. an oval. This cutfile also helped create the illusion of the corners on the sketch,

I used a collection from Simple Stories and the cutfile is from Peartree CutFiles. 

Come on over to the TMS blog to see how the rest of the talented team interpreted this sketch. You can also share your take- which we'd love to see! :)

beautiful you | TMS 673

 Hello! It's hard to believe that we are almost into September! That being said, here is the final Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch for August, number 673:


This sketch is so pretty! I was digging through some older photos and found some photos of my mom from a while back and I thought that this sketch would be perfect for them. 



I used Simple Stories and some epoxy flair from ScrappinHappyStudio.

trick or treat | TMS 672

 Hello! :) Here is the weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches:

I was inspired by the background on this sketch, so I decided to cut my paper into strips to mimic it. 

I kept the photo centered and worked around it. It was fast and fun to piece this together!

It's almost hard for to realize that this was 20 years ago! I've got grandchildren around the same age now. Time sure flies by! 

I used Bella Blvd. and an epoxy flair from ScrappinHappyStudio. 

Check out the AMAZING work from the rest of the oh-so-talented team on the TMS blog!

Yummy! | TMS 670

Hello! Here is the weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches, #670.

Here's my take. I stayed pretty true to the sketch with the exception of the oval. I used a circle, well almost a complete circle. ;) I also included the twine/ribbon focal piece. 

I used an older collection from Fancy Pants Designs, along with some older puffy alphas from Hip Kit Club and an epoxy flair from ScrappinHappyStudio. 

You really should check out the stellar cards from the TMS team- you will love them!

Hello Summer | TMS 669

 Hi y'all! :) 

I'm here to share this week's sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches- #669.


My take:

This one got away from me a little bit, but I got the envelope/pocket! Ha! 


I have included four additional photos inside the pocket, one on each side of the mat. I pulled them out and just laid them on top of the envelope for display:


I used some summer collections from Simple Stories and Echo Park. The acrylic pieces are from Bramble Fox. 

You've got to check out the fabulous work from the TMS team! Some real eye candy! 
 See you next week. :)

you got this | TMS 668

 Hello scrappy friends! 

Today I'm sharing the last Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch for the month of July. Wow! Another month just flew right by. 

Here is sketch #668:

This sketch left a lot of room for options, so I decided to fill it with some adorable photos of our grandson, Lincoln. Isn't he the cutest?!

            

I used the Cocoa Vanilla Studio No Limits collection and a fun canvas flair button from ScrappinHappyStudio.

curious kitty | TMS 667

It's time for this week's sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches! Here is sketch #667:

The patterned paper is Simple Stories, and the epoxy flair is from ScrappinHappyStudio!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you are well! :)

bubbles | TMS 665

Hey y'all! I hope you are doing well this week! :)

Here is this this week's Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch for you, #665:


When I first saw this sketch, I knew I wanted to do something special with the triangle on top, as well as using a geometric/triangle pattern. I accomplished both of these ideas by creating a large shaker pocket and using a bold triangle design patterned paper. 

I used a couple of kits from Hip Kit Club to create this. 

The super fun shaker pocket was created by gluing some vellum on top of the patterned paper and then filling it up with sequins from SpiegelMom Scraps. I finished it by adding some hand stitched lines, which serve no function other than adding some visual interest. 


I do hope you check out the work from the rest of the TMS team! They are so talented! :)

all the feels | TMS 664

I blinked and July arrived. So hard to believe! 

Here's the first Tuesday Morning Sketch of the month, #664:


I didn't create a banner, or add layers, but I improvised with a torn edge and some DMC floss for visual interest. I had a lot of fun creating this page for the sketch! 

I added some hidden journaling in one of the cute little pockets:


This adorable paper collection is Doodlebug and the cut file is from Peartree Cutfiles. 

Loving what the team created- check out their gorgeous cards on the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog! We'd love to see what you create, so be sure to share. :)

simple pleasures | TMS 663

 hey y'all! I don't know about you, but I am having a hard time believing that this is the last week in June! 

It's Tuesday which means it's time for a fun new Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch:

This is sketch #663 and here's my take:

unlike last week, this one came together quickly for me! As soon as I received this photo of my granddaughter, I knew this collection from Simple Stories would be perfect!

This acrylic piece from Color Cast Designs was also perfect! 

And I aodre the new canvas flair from ScrappinHappyStudio! 

You're going to want to check out the fabulous work from the TMS team, so head on over to the blog to get your weekly fix of inspiration!

roam adventure explore |TMS 662

 Hello! I'm back with another awesome sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches

This week is sketch #662:

The layout I created using this sketch definitely falls under the term "extremely loose interpretation"  hahaha! I did manage to incorporate a large sentiment, so there's that, and three trees.

 This one boggled me a bit, even though it's pretty straightforward- use 3 photos in lieu of the flowers and bam! a completed page, however, I struggled trying to make that happen with a couple different photo sets so in the end I decided to scrap it all (no pun intended) and focus on the sentiment. 


I used a digital kit from ScrappinHappyStudios for the pp- minus the base paper which I cannot recall. 

cut file is from Peartree Cutfiles.

That's the beauty of a sketch- it doesn't have to align perfectly to be inspirational- clearly I've demonstrated that. ;)

You've gotta check out the fabulous work from the team on the TMS blog! Also, please share your take on this sketch- we'd love to see it! 

Until next week, I wish you well!
