Scrappy Sunday: Scrap our Stash #challenge (Project Pinterest) #sketch

Today I'm sharing a challenge I did for Scrap our Stash. It required a travel theme, an object of signage, and a pre-made vehicle embellishment. I wasn't feeling very creative, so I went to my Pinterest scrapping board to find a sketch. I found an old one from over at Ally Scraps blog. I stuck pretty close to the sketch, changing the page size and orientation of the photo but otherwise staying pretty true to it.

For this challenge I used the American Traditional Designs travel kit I've had for probably 5 years. I use it pretty much every time I make a travel page, but somehow it never seems to run out. It was a big kit! So I used that for the paper.
I also used ink from We R Memory Keepers for ink edging, a car sticker, a Sharpie for journaling, Paper Studios brads, Making Memories letter stickers, and some printables I found over on Pinterest. The other big embellishment I used was the black rubber ring on the bottom right, which reminded me of a tire. I'm not sure what it is or what it's for. I found it on the side of the road while walking one day, and immediately knew I'd use it on a page as a tire one day. I finally found a good use for it!

#scrapbooking Pagemaps challenge: Sun and Sand

Another pagemaps challenge this week. I am still scrapbooking my Florida trip from a year and a half ago. I did take a year long scrapping break in there, but it's just about impossible for me to scrap trips because I take literally hundreds of pictures. But I'm doing my best.

This week, I followed the Pagemaps sketch and tried to do a layout pretty close to the sketch for their contest. Here is the sketch, and my take on it.

If you are looking for some great sketches, check out the pagemaps website. They run contests on their blog all the time, too. Usually a ton of people enter, but it's good motivation to get a page done. Head over there to enter the contest, or check out their website for tons and tons of free sketches.

For this page, I used the following supplies:
Pattern paper-DCWV and Target
Pen: Zig
Stickers: Miss Elizabeth's (Blue shell), ATD (Title), Making Memories (words), Jolee's (pink glitter shell), other (quote bubble, fish)

Scrappy Sunday (pagemaps challenge)

Okay, I'm a bit obsessed with Pagemaps lately. They have a newly resigned blog, too! There's a new challenge up that goes until September 2, so of course I had to do it. I'm a little behind on my pictures (probably a few years), but I'm scrapping my Florida trip right now. Here is the page I made for their newest challenge!

I used American Traditional Designs scrapbook bundle for this one, as well as a few of their stickers and embellishment kits. I have a lot of their travel stuff, and it all coordinates. Paper, border strip, tags, stickers, tabs, ribbon, etc, are all from their line. I also used SEI spray ink for the background, a brad from my stash, and Stampabilities ink.

I had a lot of pictures I wanted to use, so I made another page to go with it, also using one of the sketches at Pagemaps (August sketches). This page goes on the left side, the other on the right.
