Saturday Sketch #4 May 2013

 Once again this week for the Saturday Sketch I have used the On This Day Collection

I just love it and can't seem to put it down! LOL

For todays sketch I decided to go with a beachy photo so I dragged out my old 'Off Shore' stamp set... who remembers that one? 

It was one of the first collections that Kaisercraft started releasing in actual collections .... it is still one of my favourites to this day! Every time I need to make something that resembles the beach, out comes this particular wave stamp... nothing says surf to me more than this stamp!

The shell at the bottom is a more recent stamp from the 'Rockpool Collection'. The rest of the page is a lot of ink and scribble!!

It kind of resembles the Sketch ... I was following it, but got quite carried away.... It does look like it if you turn the sketch upside down and squint your eyes!? LOL

So here is the original Sketch from Kaisercraft...

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

Saturday Sketch #3 May 2013

For this weeks Sketch I've used the On This Day Collection.

This was quite a simple sketch and I couldn't help tizzing it up a bit! LOL

After doing this layout I now firmly believe I'm completely addicted to frames .. I was looking back over all my layouts for the year and sure enough they all have a frame or boarder around the edge of the page ... as it turns out I just can't live without a page frame! I've decided this is just going to have to be my thing now as I love pages done this way.

Anyway... theres not a lot of product on this page at all so it was a nice quick one to pull together.

I actually really like sketches like this that we can dress up ourselves... simple bases with unlimited potential! LOL

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann

On This Day Cards

Just popping in Quickly today to share a couple of cards I've made using the On This Day Collection.

There's nothing fancy going on here folks, just quick easy cards!

I used papers from the paper pad and the coordinating collectable die cut pack... a few Rhinestones and pearls latter and there you have it.

I love the arty side of scrapbooking, but sometime you just have to get stuff done! LOL

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

On This Day Layout

Ahhhh... Romance! The On This Day Collection is awesome. 

 I'm a sucker for all things to do with romance and I just couldn't resist doing the great big heart thing with this page!!

I have really gone to town with the inking on this layout and I must confess I think it's the element that really makes it ... giving it a more shaded and romantic feel than just the stark paper would if left alone.

Of course the pearl flourishes and soft muslin in the back ground help to create the romantic feel as well. I really love this quote and it suits the people in this photo perfectly which always helps!

All the flowery elements in this layout are from the collectables pack and the wood flourishes are all from Kaisercraft. Only that very cool harlequin background stamp is not from Kaisercraft... I got that from a friend who does Kazzazz ... it's so gorgeous! I find myself wanting to use it on every page I do!! LOL

Well thanks for stopping by for a look.

Have a great day.

Cheers from Kel.
