A new sketch at Scrapbook Challenges

It's Monday which means Pamela will be posting a new sketch over at Scrapbook Challenges. It's another fab one I must say, and made me think a bit outside my box. I NEVER cut my photos into circles! Must say it made a nice change and this layout was perfect for the page I had in mind!! I had these photos of Ray I wanted to scrap, and I love the male and quite edgy feel my page has! Anyway, here is the sketch:

SKETCH 201:


And here is my page:




The journaling on this page reads ~ In your line of work you are not able to wear a wedding band, so in a wonderfully romantic gesture you got a band tattooed on your finger for our 12th wedding anniversary. I love you more today than I did 12 years ago, and am so touched that, despite your fear of needles you did this for me!

The title & arrows were cut with my Slice. I ran the lettering through my Cuttlebug, and the stars & circle stamps are by Hero Arts. I also used one of my lovely EK Success border punches.

Thanks for stopping by to look at my page. Why not drop by Scrapbook Challenges to see what it's all about!

More exciting news on it's way!!

Hi all.

Just thought I would give you a head's up. Friday is going to be a big day here on my blog!! In the early morning (S.A time) I will be showing you my latest Annabelle card. It's Friday so there will be a new challenge posted. I am super happy with the way my card turned out. Love it when that happens!!

In the afternoon at about 3pm (9am US time), there is going to be an exciting announcement here. Lots of fun events and prizes are going to be up for grabs too!! So.....I would really love for you to come and visit again tomorrow.

Just to stop this post from being a bit visually boring I am going to post a layout I did for Sketch 196 over at Scrapbook Challenges. This is a fab sketch and I can see myself using it again in the future.

Here is the sketch:


And here is my layout and 2 close-up photos.




I used my Slice and Spring Design card to cut out all the cute little Easter elements! The little Easter scene in the right hand corner was inspired by a layout by one of my scrap booking hero's Suzy!

REMEMBER!!!! Come back tomorrow! x
