Scrapbook Challenges-281

Scrapbook Challenges! Remember those lovely ladies? I was part of their design team in 2010 and Brynn asked if I could Guest Design for them this February.

I jumped at the chance to play with the ladies and these sketches.

Brynn recently re-vamped the entire site and I must say, it looks gorgeous! It's well and professionally done and a great little nest for creativity. Please, check them out.

There's even a Membership Drive going on at the moment! Join or invite someone to join and you could win big =)

Here's how:

• Every person that joins the site & posts a mini of 5 times gets entered into a drawing for a $50 Scrapbook.com gift voucher!
• And if you're a current member and you refer someone (who then enters your name in the referral section of the registration process) you're entered to win a $25 Scrapbook.com gift voucher!

Easy peasy! Click on the link to find out more details.

Now on to the real reason I'm here. To share my take on Sketch 281! Isn't it fab?

My take was super literal, except that I made it 8 1/2 x 11. Hey, don't mess with a good thing right?

The photos are from Hawaii and are printed to be reminiscent of instax shots. Which is what I immediately thought of when I saw this sketch. So happy to have been able to get 5 photos on an 8 1/2 x 11 layout!

I must have felt a bit blue that day with all of these blue details. The majority of the products I used are American Crafts Margarita line with some Basic Grey Lauderdale thrown in.

I used 2 sets of Thickers and some October Afternoon & Basic Grey letter stickers for the long and ambling title. The tiny butterflies and sequins are the perfect finishing touches.

Like I said before, happy to be playing with Scrapbook Challenges again. Definitely check them out! And check back the rest of February for other sketches, maybe some posts from my trip (maybe ;) and a challenge or two.

Oh, and don't forget to post here to have a chance to win the Kelly Purkey Sketchbook/Sketchpad RAK!

cheers & besos,
