EGG HUNT 2016 - ScrapMuch? Kit

Hi there!

One last post to show you an AMAZING

ScrapMuch? Project kit

EGG HUNT 2016

This double page layout kit is from last year (2015) and is

sold out

(so cute - it didn't last long)

But they have so many more to chose from!!

Every year, here in Muskoka, The Nutty Chocolatier offers the town an egg hunt.  

It's divided into age groups and there are 25,000 

chocolate eggs to be gathered -

with a Golden egg for the ultimate prize.

My Little loves to find frozen eggs

(we always have snow for Easter)

and then head home for a chocolate fondue

Here are some close-ups: 

Left side

Right side

 Silhouette cut file title and I added the year

 - as we do this every year!

How stinkin' cute is this bunny in the basket

I embossed my flowers and added some Bling

and more embellishing to balance out the other side

Laura and the girls have some really cute kits to share!!

My Little didn't even try for the golden egg,

he just wanted to get home and fondue!

Of course, I made it my own but really kept true the kit!

It's so cute!

Hop over and shop at ScrapMuch? 

They are offering:

* Monthly kit club memberships

* Layout & card kits

* Crops

* Retreats

We'll see you around and Thank you for stopping by

Dying 4 EGGS - ScrapMuch? Design Team Farewell

Hi there!

It is that time to share 

my last 

take on the

very LAST sketch over at ScrapMuch?

dying 4 eggs

My Little LOVES to dye eggs!  Each year he tries to be a little

more creative and change things up.

This year we found an empty nest and had to use it.

We had one "wounded" egg so we created hats and such for the other

survivors LOL

Here are some close-ups:

 cut file title on Easter grass, I used fringe scissors, fussy cut each piece on an angel and then inked and curled each blade of grass. 

Love the effect.

 silhouette bunny cut file tucked behind my photos,

adding a little matte pink enamel dot nose.

here I machine stitched my ric-rac and used my Fuse tool to 

create a little pocket "captured"

the view finder I embellished with a heart

enamel dot and glitter!

Here is Laura's 250th and final sketch:

ScrapMuch?

Here is my final farewell to an amazing team!  

From our AMAZING Sketch Designer and Lead (Laura)

to the awesome owners at ScrapMuch?

Look at that vintage photo!!

For my third birthday, my parents took me to Niagara Falls.

An entire page with a mix of lines from one company

- that is a first for me!

Here are some close ups: 

 My Mind's Eye acrylic title Smile

It's perfect for this page

I LOVE flamingos!!  When I saw this MME

always brothers - ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday May 13th

Hi there

Friday the 13th

Today, truly is a REVEAL

I am sharing a 

very moving photo my friend shared with me.

I haven't stopped thinking about this photo since 

I set my eyes on it - I had to document it!

[She hasn't seen this page completed]

Here is my

ScrapMuch?

Sketch-y Friday 

REVEAL

always brothers

Wow!  Look at this photo...this one talks to you but yet calms you,

while warming that smile on your heart.

This one had to tell a story!

Life isn't always black and white

Sometimes a little colour gives us that voice

#autismblue

Here are some close ups:

 I mixed the title using Heidi Swapp stickers and 

silhouette cut file

always brothers

 I tucked a large cog /wheel behind the photo, as we're always thinking

and planning

it's a crazy world

Added a button with layers and tied a bow to hold it all together

[I left the journal tag for Anne to complete]

splatters of Mister Huey's

as life may not always fall exactly as planned 

some added stitching 

"hand-in-hand" we're doing this together

I added a box of Stickles around the photo

"we all need a lil'sparkle in our journey"

 I purposely left the last strip of BoBunny paper to be read:

love you  wonderful  thanks  happyday  love  hello beautiful

because in the end

we're always brothers

Here is your super FUN sketch by Laura:

Merci - Sketch n'Scrap #72

Hi there!

I was invited and selected to

volunteer to help on my Littles' 

class trip last Friday

(great start to Mommy's Day weekend)

I am sending in this card

to say:

Merci

I mixed in some Stampin'UP, My Mind's Eye and Tape Works washi

(I chose this one as it's transparent over the fun paper)

Our trip started at the Logging Museum

studying simple machines.

Algonquin Park still has SNOW and a ton of mud!

It was a sunny day but still about 11 degrees cooler

than back in town.

[what an 1.5 hour drive can change!!]

We finished the day at the bogs =

wet, stinky grade two'ers

but so much FUN!!!

I was inspired by Heather's card sketch:

Sketch n'Scrap #72

P.S.  I missed the link up but had to share!

Hi there!

and Happy May!!

Officially May 1st today (WoW!)

and that means some new

inspiration

at

STUCK?! SKETCHES!

Stuck?! Sketches - May 1st

This is Chispa, our adopted rescue. 

He has these huge blue eyes that cried for us to take home.

He was so scared and started licking the snow off of

our snow brush - we new we did the right thing!!

Strangely enough, I am not a cat person.

We always had cats growing up but

none were mine.

Here are some close ups:

 Mix font title; Simple Stories word sticker Christmas 
and a wooden veneer kitty (altered)

Look at those eyes!!
HOHOHO Simple Stories word sticker,
and a matching bulb tied with bakers twine

Last Fall, I was blessed to attend one of
Laura's make-n-take technique tag
I added some bling and adjusted the placement of
the berries,
it was the perfect splash of colouring for my page

Here is Laura's inspiring Sketch:

May 1st
