January Sketches @ Stuck

Another couple of awesome sketches for you  this month over on the Stuck blog.  Always the best way to get you scrapping, pick up a sketch and run with it...works for me, anyway!

Thought I'd best share before the deadline comes around at midnight tonight...where has the month gone!

Here they both are for you, with my samples and some close ups for good measure :)

January 1st Sketch...

The Rock - photos of my boy jumping off the BIG Rock at Jamberoo Recreation Park, he was so scared but eventually just took the leap!

 Closeups :)


January 15th Sketch...
 
 
Little Fashion Model - featuring Bronte in some get up she designed was sensational that day!!  Funny girl...

Close up featuring a super cute Purple Pumpkin button...

And some journalling, to tell the story :)

Make sure you head over to the Stuck blog and get your layouts uploaded before midnight...not long now!!!

January's Savvy Birthday Boy Class

Last night I held the first Savvy Class for 2013, and we had such a fab night!  This month's class was creating 'Birthday Boy' layouts and most of the girls completed all four layouts on the night, whilst getting messy with some paint, mist and texture paste using a new template in the store called Dina's Letter Chaos from The Crafters Workshop.

Here's a look at my layouts :)

Blow featuring Cooper on his 7th birthday blowing out his birthday candles, on his cake made by Daddy.

6yo Pressies featuring Cooper on his 6th birthday opening all his pressies... spoilt much!

Celebrate - Cooper as his friend Daniel's party at Tiger Putt Putt.

Pinata - the boys having a crack at the Pinata at Bailey's birthday party.

There are still two class kits available for purchase for only $30 in the Scrapbook Savvy Store.  I can do the painted/misted/texture pasted backgrounds for you as I have done on these layouts, or you can do your own - your choice!  Be quick though, they won't be in the store for long...$30 for FOUR layouts with step by step instructions is just too good to miss!

BIG Savvy Sketch for January

This month it was my turn to choose a layout from the Savvy Gallery to turn into a sketch.  I chose a layout by our Gallery Member Susan called Gingerbread houseSara was the clever chook who actually turned the layout into a sketch, she is sooooo good at that so I wouldn't want to take that job from her...  ;)

The sketch looks like this...

And my layout using the SOLD OUT Christmas Sampler Savvy Kit from November.  'Our Two Stars' features both my baby girls putting their own on star on the Christmas tree in 2011....the things you do to stop arguments, hey!

A close up of my title using my newest fave Thickers...

My journalling, love telling the story! 

'There were fights over who got to put the star on the Christmas tree to finish off the job of decorating...so we had two stars and each of the girls got to put one star on each.  Daddy lifts them high so they can reach.  4th December 2011'


And the very pretty chipboard from Words or Whatever, which I've coloured in with texta and then used dimensional magic for the glossy effect.

Make sure you enter this challenge...you'd be crazy NOT to with a MASSIVE $40 spending money in the Savvy store to win, PLUS free postage on your order!  Upload to the Savvy Gallery before midnight 31 January 2013. 

Thanks for visiting!
