Hello Besties

 I've made several layouts using the September creative kit from My Creative Scrapbook.


This is the latest done with Kate&Ash from Simple Stories.  I punched some leaves to go along with the stamped foliage.  That stamp is from My Stamp Market also.  I embossed the black stamping but you really can't tell from this photo.  I also added some distress oxide splatters.

I went stamp crazy on this one.  I used a couple of stamps from The Stamp Market -Large Leaves.  I also used a few Catherine Pooler stamps (Autumn is Calling) for the smaller leaves.  I used a pencil eraser for the circles.  

The inks I used were mostly from Stampin' Up. 

Sketch Support

 Sketch Support by Allison Davis

I was inspired by Allison's sketch and the various ways she used it.  I decided to start with circle stitching.  I used a circle template to draw one circle in the middle and 3 other circles around it.  After I did that, I used the same template to poke holes for my stitching.  


I knew I would be scrapping some back to school pictures of my youngest son.  I wanted to use the Doodlebug school collection which mainly has primary colors.  I decided to go with Red, Blue, Yellow and Green.


After finishing the hand stitching, I added two mist splatters:  Heidi Swapp Shine in Butter and Dylusions in London Blue.  I used two Studio Calico star stamps.  The two inks I used for those were Catherine Pooler Rockin' Red and Vicki Boutin's cool color inks.


I used a punch to punch the starts in the matching color cardstocks.  I popped those with pop dots.  


Of course, I had to add journaling about how my son wasn't so thrilled about taking first day of school photos.

Cutest Pumpkin in the Patch

 Scrap Our Stash Entry


For this one, I added some distress oxides for the mixed media background.  Stamped some Tim Holtz leaves for added background interest. I used my cricut to cut the title.
