52 Sketches #32


This Lo was done with the sketch #32 from 52 sketches. Again with the scallop edges so this time I got even more creative. I just wrapped it around and pinned it up with a brad. It's not perfect but I kinda like the imperfection of it. After I spent an hour on it, going back and "fixing" it I thought it looked fabulous. Flowers by Prima, Petaloo and AC; Letter stickers by Current; brads by The Paper Studio and MM; PP by K&I

Creative Scrappers #65


This Lo is from Creative Sketch #65. This time for the scallop edge I punched holes out of the cs and put the pp and rik rak over half while the paper underneath shines thru giving the effect of a scallop trim. This LO has two negatives in it with the trim and the circle in the middle. I like to use the negatives of circles sometimes because they are so commonly used in sketches this makes it stand out a little bit. Th e buttons on this LO are also suppose to represent a scallop edge. I painted them with MM paint to have them match the blue in the white shirt. The buttons are from my inlaws and quite old. I was glad to find a use for them.

Scrap That week #3



This Lo is from the sketch at Scrap That. I don't have a way to make a 12 inch scallop edge so I used a circle punch, cut those circles in half and then adhered them on a strip of CS and hoped they were even. I think it turned out well. The stamps are by Autumn Leaves; flowers by Jolee's; beads and flower brad by PC; punches by Marvy, CM and EK Success; rhinestone title by Me and my big ideas; eyelets by MM. TfL
