OWH - Sketches #230 and #231

Happy Sunday. Here are my cards for Operation Write Home's sketches #230 and #231.

Sketch to Scrapbook :: Grid Collage

As you can see I've been making my way through Shimelle's sketches which are all due at the end of the month. For sketch #35 I choose 3 camera photos featuring our dogs and a really cute dog embellishment. Hope you're enjoying the last Saturday in June. 

Sketch to Scrapbook :: More is More

Last night Mountain Hardware held their Annual Customer Appreciation event. We had a great time listening to music and hanging out with friends and family. For this layout I used Shimelle's sketch #46.

Sketch to Scrapbook :: Puzzle Pieces

Last weekend Shimelle went crazy with a ton of sketches all due by the end of June. Below is another glimpse at the lavender fields at Highland Springs Resort. The focus of sketch #47 was to put photos and papers together to form a puzzle while following the principles of the visual triangle.

Sketch to Scrapbook :: A Photo and a Banner

Happy Monday. Here is my layout for Shimelle's Sketch to Scrapbook Page #34. This is my brother and his family ziplining over the weekend.

Sketch to Scrapbook :: Half Page Photo

Here is Shimelle's latest Sketch to Scrapbook #44 page using a large photo as the focal point. I thought this lavender field photo taken at Highland Springs Resort yesterday would be perfect for the sketch and the first day of summer.

Happy Summer!

Happy First Day of Summer!!! When's the last time you had s'mores?

OWH - Sketch #229

Happy Father's Day Sunday! Here is this week's card for Operation Write Home's sketch #229. I used Stampin' Up's "Beautiful Wing's" embosslits die for the butterflies and the hexagon embossing folder for the background.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day! Here is the card that we made at our monthly swap. The stamp is called "Look Up to Father" and the embossing folder is called "Vine Street", both are from Stampin' Up! If you like the embossing folder it's on clearance for $2.39. Have a great day!

Airplane Punch Art

I saw this plane on Pinterest and knew it would go perfectly with Stampin' Up's "Cloudy Day" embossing folder which also happens to be on clearance for $4.79. If you would like instructions on how to assemble the plane you can visit Carolina Evans' blog for her adorable airplane chocolate wrappers. The sentiment is from Heidi Swapp.

OWH - Sketch #228

Happy Sunday! Here is my card for Operation Write Home's sketch #228. For this card I used two watercolored butterflies from the Stampin' Up! "Papillon Potpurri" set that were left over from yesterday's tag project. For the sentiment I used a trimmed down Project Life card. ...a slight twist on the sketch.

Tim Holtz - 12 Tags of 2014 (June)

Better late than never. Here is my take on Tim's tag for June. I used one of the butterflies from Stampin' Up's "Papillon Potpourri" and a coordinating punch. The sentiment is from the "Elegant Beginnings" set.
