Inspiration Friday - Sketches

This week Joy and I are taking our inspiration from a sketch. I don't usually work with sketches so this was a little out of the comfort zone for me but I actually found that it made the process a lot quicker and because of my limited time these days I might need to use them more. We used this fun sketch from Scrapfriends.com I found online.

I wanted to use this photo from the past month from my son's first competition, they did amazing and two routines made it to the top 10 overall for the competition which is awesome.

I have heard the term "Squad Goals" quite a bit on-line and thought it would be the perfect title for this layout. I used the Finders Keepers collection from Amy Tangerine I love the colors.

I followed the sketch pretty much bank on and added some black ink and rub ons.

I had a lot of fun making this layout, you can see the video here...

And don't forget to check out how Joy was inspired by this layout on her channel.

October Inspiration Friday

It's time for one of my favourite projects of the month - Inspiration Friday. Joy and I have created some projects based on our inspiration for October which is Fall and this mood board:

Fall is so full of wonderful colours and textures I decided to make my own mood board.

You can see my video here and the link to Joy's Video will be in the information.

Here's some pictures of my project:

It looks so pretty and inspires me every time I look at it.

Inspiration Friday - Episide 1

Joy Atkinson and I are teaming up to bring you some fun and inspirational videos.  On the third Friday of every month we will be picking something that inspires us and using it as a starting point to get crafty.  For our first episode we used our favourite craft company as our inspiration. You can watch my first video here:

One of my all time favourite companies is Crate Paper, their collections are always amazing, trendy and fun and full of patterns and embellishments.  I almost always buy everything from all their collections.  For my first Inspiration Friday video I am using the new poolside collection.

Here is the completed layout, I used some of my all time favourite embellishments, chipboard frames, I absolutely adore them and use them in a lot of projects.

I also loved the Mason Jar pockets in this collection, so sweet.

The gold sequins are so cool, I love the gold touch it adds to this layout.

Next head on over to Joy's channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCapSnOgBvIXFBT26JYi9LxQ and see how she got inspired by her favorite crafty company.
