Novemeber sketch challenge

The November sketch challenge is up in the forum. This month we are focusing on creating a card to get us ready for the holiday season. The sketch is provided to us by Becky Fleck at Pagemaps and Chris has created several files to help you along.

Here's my version:

I had full intentions to follow the sketch exactly, but when I started to put all the pieces together, it just looked better off centered. Oh well, the joy of creativity!

I used Chris's Poinsettia Happy holidays It also has a nice title with the poinsettia that you can cut as well.
Supplies used:
Page Maps sketch
Foof-a-la papers
Kaiser crafts gem
Stampin up title stamp
Chris Durnan's Poinsettia Happy Holidays
SKU: CD00137

thank you card with Chris's files

How cute is this lady bug? I just love her! I used Chris's lady bug file - from her QMC club last quarter - and her bracket file from one of her sketch challenges on the forum. I cut a bracket from yellow, then reduced the size of the file and cut it from the purple. I used some skittles that a wonderful lady sent me to make the lady bug's eyes stand out.

Seems like this year there are more houses with really neat Halloween decorations. I decided to make a layout with a few pictures and found the perfect files from Chris. I used the word Fall from her Colors of Fall file and re-sized both leaves to sprinkle on the pages. Then I used her Web file - from her Quarterly challenge collection to highlight the huge spider that is on the side of one of the houses in our neighborhood.

So much more than Just a dog (Oct 2009 Sketch challenge)

A layout using the October 2009 sketch challenge file. Love using sketches and these are perfect because you get the file to cut with them! Not exactly the sketch but that was my starting point. Primas, pop dots and bling!

New Layout using CD00605

This is my latest layout using CD00605 - Family Frame. This was one of the files available in the last QMC but you still have time to join this QMC which can be found HERE.

This is a photo of my In-Laws, my DH and my son and daughter on a recent visit to our home. This was my last chance for a photo shoot with my daughter as she is now working as an Au Pair in Virginia in the USA. Long way from Australia! My In-Laws just happened to be visiting at the same time, so we had a house full for a few days, it was great!


This file was perfect for this layout! The file includes the rectangle frame that I have used here and the Family title, but as an added bonus, also includes an oval frame as well! The frame around my photo and the "Family" have had styles applied to them.

Thanks for looking,

cheers, caz

Ladybug Friendship Card - CD00593 - Ladybug and CD00537 - Giggle Words both from 3rd QMC for 2009

I made a 7"X5" card and card front and then resized the CD00593 Ladybug to fit. The "Friends" word was exactly right for this friendship card and came from CD00537 - Giggle Words. Both these files were in the 3rd quarter QMC for 2009. Even though I reduced the Ladybug in size, it still cut like a dream and was easy to put together. This QMC is now closed but the 4th and last QMC for 2009 has just opened so get over to the Store and take advantage of this great deal ... over 20 files for just $10.00!

Isn't it cute!!

Thanks or looking,

cheers, caz

Layout created with CD00602

This is a layout I have created using CD00602 - Random Thoughts available in last quarters QMC. Don't miss out this quarter, hop over to the Store and sign up for the new Quarter, the last one for this year.

I love this photo of my son and have scrapped it several times. I look at it and wonder... what are you thinking ? Chris's new file "Random Thoughts" went really well with this photo, I had to use it again!

This layout has been created in Photoshop and I have applied a bevel to Chris's file to lift it off my page.

Thanks for looking,

cheers, caz

Pastor Appreciation Poems

I'm on the committee for Pastor Appreciation. A fellow committee person found these poems and asked me to make them into something that could be framed. They will be put in matching black frames. Not sure if you can read the poems as my printer won't print black ink even though it has a full cartridge. I printed in a tan to match their decor, which turned out better actually.

Used Visual Designs by Chris files cut with my wishblade... #CD00401 Butterfly Border. I've wanted to use that one since I saw it. Such a beautiful file. and Fancy Background overlay. I love love love detail and like when I can use my other supplies to embellish. Here I used some other punches. Punched the butterflies using navy diamond dust paper with a silhouette punch by Marvy. Also added bling to the butterfly body and brads and other bling to the punched flowers by 2GRRRLS. The added greenery is a Family Treasures punch. The butterflies on the cut out file were painted with mustard Radiant Pearls and then the punched butterfly glued over it.

The layout has lots of bling but needed a little something to create a visual triangle with the green. Added a little ringlet border as a flower leaf (#CD00578). Perfect touch.

Best Wishes Card using CD00467 and CD00577

Here is a "Best Wishes" Card created using "CD00467_Mats" and "CD00577_Spring Swirls", both from this quarters QMC membership. I decided I wanted to have some non Birthday Cards on hand for various occassions and these files came together so well that I couldn't resist! The "Best Wishes" title came from Shirley Clark.





Thanks for looking,

Have a great day wherever you are!

Birthday Card using CD00562 and CD00596

Another creation using Chris's fabulous files. I wanted to make a Birthday Card for a little girl and Chris's "CD00562_Birthday Bear" was perfect. This was a file available in the QMC but is now available in the Store. Also handy was "CD00596_4th-6th Grade" from this quarters QMC! This card was created in PSCS3 and I have used a felt action on the Bear and the 6th.

Thanks for looking!

Have a great day wherever you are!
