Gimme Some Sugar and Sunny Thoughts

This awesome sketch by PageMaps is featured on the Scrapbook & Cards Today blog...it's the February Blog Challenge so I decided to play along. 

It's been a while since I've used a PageMaps sketch or 
CardMaps sketch but this one caught my eye!



Seeing as we're working with Close To My Heart's 
Gimme Some Sugar paper collection this month in my Page Club classes...I wanted to get creative with the co-ordinating cardmaking stamp and thin cut bundle...



I had so much fun with that sketch that I went back to the PageMaps site and found this one from January!


One of my favourite sentiments from this month's Stamp of the Month 'Sunny Thoughts' is this one below...I fussy cut out a couple flowers from the Gimme Some Sugar collection as I've run out of the bits from the Complements package!



I absolutely LOVE the new Cork Shapes that work with this line...and the scallop thin cuts gave me just enough of the Tangerine cardstock.

Supplies Used:

X7228D - Gimme Some Sugar paper pack
Z4153 - Gimme Some Sugar Cork Shapes
Z4156 - Gimme Some Sugar Cardmaking Stamp & Thin Cuts

New Let's Scrap Sketch!


This is what we call a blast from the past...

We dug into the Let's Scrap Sketches Blog archives for this one but you can have some fun with photo layouts as the right page could lend itself to multiple photos!


I've been too busy travelling in January and February to get into my creative space but that doesn't mean you can't play along! 


While we're at it, here's the February 1st sketch we revealed...it's a fantastic sketch for multiple photos and a great way to use up your scraps!



I think I see a layout featuring some of my recent cruise photos...love the flags and the pockets...perfect for hidden journalling or when you just can't decide which photos to use!

Hopefully you have a chance to play along with these sketches this month...if you link up your creation to our Let's Scrap Sketches Blog, you have a chance to win a little something.
