It has been a WHILE since I have made a blog post but I think it is far past time. For my return to blogging, I wanted to feature a fun layout I did for the Stick It Down Blog single page layout sketch:

Last September, I had a business trip to Orlando, FL and during my off time, my son and I headed out to the WDW parks for some fun. Our first day, we went to Hollywood Studios. I absolutely LOVE this park. They were still doing the cavalcades and we were lucky enough to see the Pixar Cavalcade. I used my photos of the Green Army Men with this sketch. I used some scraps from Reminisce, some OLD Scenic Route paper, as well as some 6×6 paper and tags from Carta Bella Toy Box collection. I also used some scrabble tiles from Creative Embellishments and brads from Eyelet Outlet. Here is my take on the sketch:

I also did a process video on my YouTube channel and you can find that HERE.

Thanks for stopping by my blog! Stay tune…I am planning to resurrect it with fresh new posts!

Hey everyone! I hope you are enjoying the challenges this month. I am up on the Scrap Our Stash blog with the mid-month sketch challenge. The twist is to use 5 or more Patterned Papers!!

Here is my take on the challenge:

Good luck with the challenge! I can’t wait to see what you do with it!

Hey everyone! I hope you will join us this month at Scrap Our Stash as we begin the month with our first challenge which is to use THREE DIFFERENT ALPHAS!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I am also on Instagram @onescrappymom71. I have also made a process video for this layout and you can find it on my YouTube channel HERE.

Hey everyone!! Are you ready for another challenge? I hope you will join us this month at Scrap our Stash for this amazing SKETCH challenge! The twist this month is to use PHOTO CORNERS!!

Here is my take on the challenge. Instead of the large circle, I used a pre-printed patterned paper with a plate and chopsticks. I also used 4 smaller photos instead of 2.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I can’t wait to see what you have done with the sketch!

I adored this sketch at Stick It Down. As a 2 page-junkie, I love a sketch that allows for a lot of pictures and bonus if there’s 4×6 pictures!

Here is my take. I finally got around to scrapping these 2014 pictures from the United Kingdom Pavilion at Epcot.

Hi everyone!! Are you ready for a SKETCH challenge? Scrap Our Stash has this AWESOME sketch and the TWIST is to use ribbon, twine or jute. Here is the sketch:

And here is my take on the sketch:

I am working through pictures from Epcot and too these from the China pavilion. I used 4 pictures instead of 3 and shifted the sketch to the left a little to accommodate the dragon on the right of the layout. I have created a PROCESS VIDEO on my YouTube channel. I’d love it if you’d stop by and even SUBSCRIBE to my channel! For close ups, I am also on Instagram @onescrappymom71.

I can’t wait to see what you have done with the sketch!!! Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy December everyone!! It’s crazy to me to think we are already nearing the end of 2021! But before we end this year, let’s take on a couple challenges! The first challenge of the month is a Remix Challenge. We are scraplifting this awesome layout and the twist is to use at least 10 circles, 10 hearts or 10 stars. I chose stars…and I am pretty sure I got more than 10! I used this awesome cutfile from Paige Evans and backed it with various scraps I had in my stash.

Here is the layout to lift:

And here is what I came up with (I stretched it out and made a 2 page layout:

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you’d like to see close ups of this layout and/or the process video, you can check it out on my YouTube channel (I’d LOVE it if you became a subscriber). You can also find me on Instagram @onescrappymom71.

Stop back on 12/16 for the reveal of the 2nd channel of the month!!

Hey everyone! I am working through some of my photos from previous Disney trips and found these from our 2019 trip to Animal Kingdom. This is the Kilimanjaro Safari ride. I saw this sketch at Stick It Down (as well as the double-page sketch challenge at A Cherry on Top) and thought I could use up some of my pictures I had taken on this ride.

Here is the sketch:

And here is my take on the sketch:

I have done a Process Video on my YouTube channel found HERE. You can also see my work on Instagram @onescrappymom71.

Thanks so much for stopping by! FYI – I am starting a new series on my YouTube channel beginning December 1st called Scrap the Stack. I am working through a stack of photos I have previously developed and hope to get most of the done and in albums. I hope you join me and play along!!

Hey everyone! Are you recovering from all that Halloween candy? I hope so because it is time for our November Remix Challenge at Scrap Our Stash and the TWIST is to USE A DOILY on your layout!

For my layout, I fussy cut these doilies from an OLD paper I had in my stash. Remember GCD Designs?? So here is my take:

Thanks for stopping by my blog. If you’d like to see close ups of this layout, I can be found on Instagram @onescrappymom71 or stop by my YouTube channel for a process video.

Hello everyone and welcome to the mid-month challenge from Scrap Our Stash!! This time we are doing this awesome sketch with FOUR pictures! The twist is to use brown, orange and yellow! I had a great time playing with this sketch. Although my mind initially went to a fall theme, I remembered these UP pictures I had from Animal Kingdom and I’m glad I did. The colors of the Wilderness Explorers is perfect for the color scheme. I hope you will join us this month! If you’d like to watch my process video, you can find it on my YOUTUBE channel. I hope you will become a SUBSCRIBER to see more of my videos! I am also on Instagram @onescrappymom71
