My Scraps & More August DT Reveals

Wow! I can't believe it's been a whole month since I last posted! What a BUSY month it's been too! After my trip to the My Sketch World Houston Crop I had about 2 1/2 weeks to prepare for another big trip. This time my husband and I went to his hometown of Ketchikan, Alaska. We had a BLAST and did lots of fun things! I'm hoping that Hurricane Isaac will stay away because it was my intention to post pictures and stories on my blog this weekend... But in the meantime, I want to share my creations for the My Scraps & More August Design Team. Tammi gave me the FABULOUS Echo Park "Pride and Joy" mini kit to play with. I chose to use it for pictures of my youngest grandson Garrett when he was born almost two years ago... I also used sketches and challenges from the My Scraps Got Talent II Contest which ended a few days ago.

This page is my challenge for using a wavy border at My Scraps & More. Wanna play? Here's the link! I modified this sketch by Kristine Davidson for the Got Talent Challenge #2. I used ink for my distressing and my Creative Memories wavy trimmer to make this border. Materials – Patterned Papers, Title Block, Stickers, Die Cuts – Echo Park’s “Pride and Joy” mini kit; Cardstock – CTMH, Bazzill; Puffy Stars – KI Memories; Brads – My Mind’s Eye; Ink – CTMH; Pen – Sakura Gel Roll; Title Letter Stickers – Bo Bunny

Sketch by Kristine Davidson. I cut the circles with the Kreaxions Circle Cutter. I used the Kreaxions Stencil to punch the border with Kreaxions 4-in-1 Punch #920 with no template around the circle. My Kreaxions Punch Mate helped! Then I used the extra pieces on the photo corners, star template and smaller circle. I outlined all of the punched elements with my pen.
Sketch by Kristine Davidson. My DD had emptied the tub but Garrett wouldn’t get out because he wanted to keep playing. LOL! I painted my chipboard circles and covered them with Crystal Lacquer. I also got creative with my title letters. The E was a B, the Y was an X and both of the Os were Qs! I also had duplicate pictures so I took one and cut it into a smaller circle then popped it directly over the other picture. I hope these creations have inspired you! To purchase the Echo Park Pride & Joy Mini Kit go to the My Scraps & More Store at Happy scrapping and happy punching!!!!
