School, Clocks and Pennants

It's Thursday and new prompt is up at Creative Prompts 4U! This week it was Fabiola's turn to challenge us and this is the image she wanted us to take inspiration from:

There we so many elements to choose from within the 4 squares that I chose to take something from each square. From the top left square I used a "School" theme; from the top right square I chose to use banners; from the bottom left square I chose to take "mediums" like paint and ink and finally in the last square I chose to use the word "time" and also to use clocks.

Here's the layout I created using all of those pieces of inspiration...

Only Time Will Tell

supplies: stamps, myStamp BOX; patterned papers, Studio Calico, Die Cuts With a View; flower, Prima; paint, Delta Art; film strip, arrow/brad, gear, embossing powders, Tim Holtz; calendar sticker, chipboard circle, Imagination Project; brads, Bo Bunny, BasicGrey, My Mind's Eye; inks, Versamark, Ranger, Stampin' Up!; mists, transparent calendar, Tattered Angels; mini letter stickers, RoseMoka; chipboard alphabet stickers, American Crafts; other, thread.

I used my fun Timelines stamps from myStamp BOX all over my image. For these ones I used some Versamark ink with some Ranger embossing powders and also just straight black ink.

Those cute little banners are from the myStamp BOX Mini Pennants set. So perfect for cards too! I ran a zig-zag stitch right down the tops of them and right over top of my chipboard letters too!

I used a variety of clock items including some clocks from a sheet of Die Cuts with a View patterned paper and some metal embellies from Tim Holtz.

Come and check out what my fellow CP4U team members created using Fabiola's challenge this week. Each one is just stunning!

It's Sketch Time!

It's time for a new sketch at WeScrap... It's Sketchy Saturday!

This week I had the honour of creating a page using Sarah's sketch (seen here) and this is what I created....

Companion

supplies: patterned paper, stickers, Crate Paper; cardstock, Gina K. Designs; tools, Klic N' Kut machine; inks, Ranger, Memento; ribbon, Sheer Creations; brad, BasicGrey; other, thread.

This page is all about my scrappy companion Teaco. She just LOVES to sleep on my computer desk in my scraproom and quite often is found there during the days I create.

For my page I cut a variety of beautiful patterned papers, ran a crooked line of stitching down each side of the exposed edge of the strips and than applied a little water and curled them back with my fingers. I think it turned out amazing!

To create my ribbon rose, I began by applying a large amount of adhesive to a circle of pink patterned paper. Then I stuck my ribbon end down with a brad and began to twist the ribbon. As it twisted I stuck it down to the circle and then tucked the stray end underneath and secured it.


I hope you'll join us over at WeScrap for Sketchy Saturday this weekend. If you play along you have a great chance at winning one of our amazing WeScrap Kits too!
