Scrap Lift Sunday Roundup...

Today I am sharing a collection of layouts from the lest several weeks of Scrap Lift Sunday inspiration posted each Sunday in the Paper Issues {Friends and Fans} Facebook Group.

I love being inspired by other creative women and a good lift never fails to get my scrap mojo flowing! 

For this first layout I used the Studio Calico Baxter collection for a lift inspired by Heather Joyce. 

 

I have had so much fun with the masculine line, So Rad, from Simple Stories inspired by Aleksandra Gadji.  

 

Sherri Funk's layout inspired this lift using Cedar Lane from Pink Paislee. 

Another lift inspired by Aleksandra Gadji using October Afternoon Summertime.

And finally, Jen Boumis inspired this layout using Cedar Lane from Pink Paislee.

I'm Pinspired, are you...?

Hello! Today is Pinspire Me Monday over on the Paper Issues blog and I played along with this Pinterest compiled collage that Leah pulled together!! I absolutely LOVE these colors.

 

I used the Pinkfresh Up in The Clouds line this this layout of my sister and her pup Ginger before Ginger officially belonged to Grace. 

Grace spayed Ginger while she was in Vet School and fell head over heels in love with her! Grace couldn't stand the thought of this little nugget heading back to the shelter without a momma to love her so Grace drove out to the shelter a few days after Ginger's spayed and officially adopted her!

If you know my sister, you know there was NO WAY she was going to make it through Vet School without adopting at least one animal! LOL

Thank you for stopping by to take a look today! Remember to post your Pinspired layouts in the September Challenge album over on the Paper Issues {friends & Fans} Facebook page for a chance to win a $10 gift card!

September Paper Issues Sketch...

Hello! Today there is a new sketch up on the Paper Issues blog! This month's sketch is inspired by Lisa Dickinson for Elle's Studio.

I love the simplicity of this sketch - you can keep the sketch super simple in order to focus on your photo or you can take creative liberties and really get fancy since the sketch leaves you a lot of space to create!

My take uses the Summer Vibes collection from Simple Stories. I love this sweet photo pf my sister with her pooch, Ginger! <3

 

I added in a bit of everything from this line: chipboard frames, die cuts, stickers, enamel dots, bradz...the kitchen sink!

I also dug out those eggshell blue Thickers from my stash - which are discontinued - my sister should feel honored! 

 

Thank you for stopping by to take a look! Be sure to check out how the rest of the DT used this sketch here!
