BUZZ.....

Yet another great sketch that I can use a couple of photos.... from over at The Scraproom.....

 

 

This was a fun layout to do.... and I am really pleased with how it looks..... I used some texture paste to create the star back ground and then away I went.....the papers worked perfectly.... amazing what we have in our stash... that we are keeping for a "special page".

HOW WET IS WET.....

Still working through our USA holiday photos... so when I can do a layout with more than one photo is great...

Love this sketch from Sketch n Scrap

 

 

for this layout.... I have copied and cropped the main photo.... as you can see the look on my face especially is priceless....

And yes we got very wet.... my husband was very excited when we got placed in the front seats.... me .... not so happy.... did I enjoy the ride... yeah I did really!

8 LANES......

The other weekend (NSD).... I managed to power through a few layouts but only just managed to get them on my blog....

I did an online challenge with The Paper Teapot who are based in Christchurch, New Zealand.... we had a total of 12 challenges to worked through...

This layout was done with the sketch Lets Get Sketchy...

 

When we were driving to San Diego .... I was driving and the road just kept getting wider and wider and then I started to count the lanes.... there were 8 lanes just going in my direction.... this is just unheard or unseen of in New Zealand...

I liked the simplicity of this sketch.... and allowed me to focus on the photo.

OH SO YUMMY!

For my 2nd guest designer layout at The Memory Nest they had another fun layout..

 

When in San Fransisco we went to the Ghirardelli Chocolate Shop..... OMG.... heaven.... this salted caramel ice cream sundae was amazing.... it was a full meal in itself.... certainly didn't need to eat for the rest of the day..... every time I look at this photo ... I just wish we had a Ghirardelli's in NZ.... but it would be very good for the waist line ;) ... 

PARIS paris

I was very exciting the other day to get an email from Leslie from The Memory Nest.... asking if I would like to be a Guest Designer for may.....love the simplicity of these sketches.... and I always love a sketch that has more than 1 photo on it.

There are two sketches for the month and this is the first one.... The Memory Nest - make-it-monday-no-87

 

I turned the sketch around..... and this what I did...

These photos were taken in Las Vegas of the Casino "Paris" .... with a couple of them from the Fountains of Bellagio..... the Casinos are just amazing... and the Themes so real. 

I have used papers from Graphic 45 range which have worked perfectly for these photos.....
