Sketches in Thyme and FUN

 

Here is the next sketch for Sketches in Thyme

I used neutral papers for my base layers. There is dressmaking pattern tissue as one of my layers, plus the photo mat. 

The flowers are part of the Art Stacks bundle I bought. I thought they match well with the colours on the photo. The 2 crochet shapes are cut from an old doily.

I used the title Happy as I found something to keep me happy in the library on board ship.

I'm also putting this up for the FUN layout on The scraproom group.

F=flowers

U=under layers

N=neutrals

Sketch and scrap

 

Here is the June sketch for Sketch and scrap

I used offcuts from the previous layout on my card, which could be for a male.

The papers are from Rusty Pickle and the sentiment from Kaisercraft Rosabella.

My sentiment says Life is better with you in it.

I've also entered this at The Paper Players

Jumpstart sketch plus colour challenge

 

This is the jumpstart sketch at The scraproom group.

This is the colour challenge at Soul Scrappers.

I decided to combine the two. I used 2 photos from my cruise matting them on neutral paper. Next, I cut 2 triangles for my corners. After gluing them I added washi tape strips. Next, I put them on the layout and cut chipboard chicken wire to size. I put it through my Xyron.to make it sticky. After adding those to my layout I used pearls and rhinestones plus small hexagons in the chicken wire plus scattered on my layout. My title is in 2 colours silver and copper to ensure I had enough letters. I added a blue star on a toothpick and my short journalling and it is done!

Freaky fast formula

 I've made a layout today, the first in a week. 

Yesterday I won some charms from Charms creations so use one on here. I put the circle, doiley flower and felt stitched arrow in a cluster. The wood veneer heart I separated and put it near the top of my layout. I used 2 of the 4 papers as my mats and another for the journal block.

I've also done a couple more junk journal pages.

On this one I used a corner pocket and punched flowers.

This one features mini envelopes and an altered tag. It is on the theme of mail.

This one features an opening mini folder ,closed on the first picture and open below showing some tags I added

More junk pages

 

Here are some more of my pages and no particular reason I did them. Most of these seem to feature a vintage theme.

Junk Journal fun.

 

I bought this kit from Artstacks to give it a try. I've long been an admirer of Lisa Oxley.

I recently started a Junk Journal so here are the pages I made with this kit.

Junk journal paper bag conversion.

 I started with a small bag from the donut shop.

Next, I glued muslin on the top of it.

Then I edged it with antique lace making a frame. I added paper across the frame and added smaller tags

I glued it to the left-hand side of the page.

In the top pocket (bag) I put a matching tag.
