16th Dec - Sketch

Morning everyone! It's sketch time again, today Valerie has created this sketch for you to create with.
Here's what the design team created:
Anna
I thought this sketch was just right for this time of year as it looks like a big present so I scrapped a photo of my nephew from last Christmas.

Daphne
As you can see I used two 4x6" photos so everything got BIG on my page along with the big grin of my DH!
I really love sketches which allow me to use my own measurement, the ones that fit with my photos!

Emi



Working with this sketch was so much fun for me!
I used tons of stamps, layers, watercolors and positive energy!
I love this photo, it was taken few weeks ago,
during the celebration of my 18th birthday.
I and my parents,
adorable shot! ;)

Jules
Another fabulous sketch from Val! Really loved this one, but squished all the elements together into the middle of the page.

Kat

Since this sketch was based off of one of my previous layouts, I decided to flip it around some, so my new page would look a bit different from the first one.  I am pretty happy with the end result!

Katherine

I love a sketch and this was no exception, and I stuck pretty closely to it.  I created my own background paper using a doily stamp, some kraft paper and white ink, and then just layered up all my pieces.  

Kim
Petra
This is my Goofy son playing Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer. The swedish  title Knasboll is sort of similar to Goofy. 




All supply is from You Do and Canvas Corps except for the stencils which are from Crafter's Workshop.

It's great that we all created something a bit different with it, hope it gives you lots of inspiration to create your own take. 


We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a very Happy Christmas from everyone at The Studio!
See you next year!!

2nd Dec - Layers

It's now December, can you believe it?! A new month means it's time for a new challenge!
"The weather is getting colder and we bring out our winter clothes... layer upon layer to keep warm... make a page with lots of layers"

Anna
I like using layers on my pages so I started with painted rings, stamping and then layered up some papers and shapes.

Daphne

When we picked our day for our last visit to Stourhead this year, we knew two things: First, it was going to be a lovely sunny day; second, it would be freeeezing cold! So we did what we liked most: we layered us in lots of clothes! Like I did on the layout here on the left, right and top of the page.

Emi

I love layers so it wasn't challenge for me.
It was pleasure to work with this theme.

Jules
I'm sure you all know how much I love layers! This page was so much fun to make :)

Kat


I've been trying to use more layers in my scrap pages recently (all my favorite scrappers work with layers so well!), so I had a lot of fun with this challenge.


Katherine

I love layering and peeling back bits of paper to reveal layers underneath.  

Kim

Petra
I choose this picture of my kids building a tower with grandpa for this challenge as they are building layer onto layer. In the end the tower was so high my Hubby had to lift my son to reach up to the top of the tower.



I used Pink Paislees PortFolio collection together with some PP, stars and clouds from Studio Calico, some Twine, Thickers, prima mistables and some details from Teresa Collins.  The stamp is my own design using the Photocentric/Teresa Collins Stampmaker.

Valerie
I consider myself a simple scrapbooker but I love working with layers. I especially like to mix materials. On this page I mixed die cuts with patterned paper, stickers and paper tape. I got a little assist on my page design from one of the December sketches from Simple Scrapper:


We would love to see how many layers you put on!! Link up your creations, we would love to see them!
