October Sketch Layout - Sam Hauzer

Have you seen the fabulous sketch for this month at Sassy Scrappers? It's such an easy sketch to use, here's what I've come up with...


Products Used - The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Wonderful Delighful, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Wonderful Dandy, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Hello Wishes, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Happy Layered Stickers, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Happy Label Stickers, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Worderful Tiny Word Stickers, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Hello Buttons, #561406 Interlude Yellow Felt 12pk, #43041 AC Niki Riki Glitter Thickers Yellow, Twine, Black pen.

Now, because I used a portrait, rather than landscape style photo, I simply turned the sketch on its side. That's what is so great about sketches, you can change them around to suit whatever you're doing, but they give you a great place to start from!


I included a lot of journalling on this page, something I'm trying to make a point of doing more often...


The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Happy Layered Stickers are perfect for adding to embellishment clusters to add that little touch of dimension, and the beautiful Prima flowers are so easy to add to any layout!...


We would LOVE to see your entries for the Sassy Scrappers October Sketch, so make sure you put this sketch on your scrapping 'to do list'. We can't wait to see what you all come up with ! :)

Have a great week!

Love - Prima Rosarian - Joanne Bain

Hi Everyone!!!

Joanne here with you today for the last post of my Guest Design Team spot. As you would already know I have been working with Prima Rosarian.  The kit I received to create with was absolutely beautiful and I had exhausted most of it when I created my 2 layouts, so today I wanted to share a card that I created with the scraps that I had left.



Materials Used available from Sassy Scrappers.

#559014 - Rosarian Tiny Alpha Cardstock Stickers
#844523 - Rambler
#844530 - Constance
#844516 - Old Garden
#844561 - Felicity
#844578 - Chambori
#844585 - Alba
Kaisercraft Aqua Rhinestones
Kaisercraft Ice Blue Rhinestones
Black Cardstock

Other - Organza ribbon, Cheery Lynn butterfly dies & Spellbinders Doily Dies.


As with all of my projects this card has lots of layers. I created my own banners and paper shapes for my layers and topped it off with a big pink butterfly cut from a Cheery Lynn Die. I think any of my friends would love to receive this card and it has all been made totally from scraps.

I hope I have inspired you this month with my creations using the Prima Rosarian Collection and a big thank you to the Sassy Scrapper Team for allowing me to be a Guest Design Team member.

I am sure I will see you all around the scrapping community somewhere.
Thanks
Joanne

So Sweet by Sam Hauzer

Hi everyone, I'm back to share a sweet simple layout, using the fabulous My Minds Eye - The Sweetest Thing Tangerine...


Products Used - The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Happy Woodsy, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Happy Journal Card, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Wonderful Chipboard Elements, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Hello Buttons, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Wonderful Dandy.


When I get to the end of using all the products in a kit, I love to stretch out those supplies to squeeze out a last layout or two. This page is for my niece's scrapbook, so I like to leave some space for her to add her own journalling. The chipboard elements are absolutely perfect for adding just the right amount of dimension to the page, and I LOVE the little journalling die cuts that go with this range!  Here's a closer look at some of the products I've used...



If you love this gorgeous range as much as I do, make sure you head over to the Sassy Scrappers shop HERE to get your hands on some!

I'll be back soon to share some more layouts using the My Minds Eye - The Sweetest Thing Tangerine range. Have a great week!

Prima Rosarian - Guest DT Joanne Bain

Hi Everyone!!!

Today I have another page to share that I created using the gorgeous Prima Rosarian Collection. I just love the colours and with colours like these I just love to make them pop by creating with a black background.


Materials Used available from Sassy Scrappers.

#559014 - Rosarian Tiny Alpha Cardstock Stickers
#558949 - Rosarian Chipboard Stickers
#559229 - Rosarian Decorative Wood Embellishments
#844523 - Rambler
#844530 - Constance
#844547 Darby
#844516 - Old Garden
#844561 - Felicity
#844554 - Bocella
#844585 - Alba
#561413 - Interlude Flowers
Black Cardstock

Other - Organza ribbon, Cheery Lynn butterfly dies, Martha Stewart Border Punch & Spellbinders Doily Dies.


Once again my page is packed with dimension. The pattern on the backside of the DARBY patterned paper was fussy cut and layered and then to add a splash of colour I also fussy cut some of the flowers from the OLD GARDEN patterned paper to create my corner cluster.


Again I have created many banners, staggered and layered them to create my background. I cut a 10 cm strip away from the top of the RAMBLER patterned paper and then attached the rest to a piece of black cardstock so the background top was less busy.


Hope you have a wonderful week end.
Joanne

My Sunshine by Sam Hauzer

Happy Monday! I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend. I've got a nice bright and happy layout to share today, using the gorgeous MME The Sweetest Thing - Tangerine!...

Products Used - The Sweetest Thing Tangerine The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Wonderful Delighful, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Sunshine Blossom, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Sunshine Title, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Hello Buttons, The Sweetest Thing Tangerine Together Chevron, Prima Flowers #557300 Charlotte Melon 6pk, #561994 Aria Orange 2pk,#43041 AC Niki Riki Glitter Thickers Yellow

I love the "Sunshine Title" die cut! I used to sing that song to Em when she was a baby and it always used to make her go to sleep (probably trying to escape my terrible singing voice!). I used the gorgeous Thickers to reinforce the title around the die cut, and the glittery letters matched in perfectly with the beautiful glittery Prima Flowers.

Here are a couple of close ups...



And here's a closer look at some of the products I've used...







You can find the beautiful MME The Sweetest Thing range in the Sassy Shop HERE, but make sure you're quick or you might miss out!
