Saturday Sketch #4 Feb 2013

So my Sketch Layout this week is a bit of a scrapbooking mashup!! 

Mostly I've used the Just Believe Collection ... but the background is actually 

from the Base Coat Collection and I've even thrown in a few bits of the 75 Cents Collection!! 

It is only very loosely based on the sketch below from the Kaisercraft Blog... I've used many of the same elements, but I decided in the end to forgo the journaling in favour of a second photo.

I loved the colours on this page ... with 4 daughters, sometimes I can get pinked to death ... so it was really nice to focus on the reds and browns for a change, and even though the Just believe Collection was actually released as a Christmas collection, it works beautifully anytime with those gorgeous red roses and chunky leaf cut-outs.

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

Just Believe Layout

Today I have MORE Christmas papers from Kaisercraft to show you! The Just Believe Collection is so much more than just Christmas though ... these beautiful Red Rose themed papers are classic and would be comfortable used on a layout any time of the year with any theme! 

I have stuck to the traditional here though and done another Christmas Layout ... as you can tell, I'm having a bit of a love affair with brass embellishments at the moment! 

The other Hero of this page is those gorgeous sprays of red pearls. I did try using a pearl pen, but in the end I discovered nothing says Christmas like some shiny metallic finish pearls!

Thanks for looking.

Smiles from Kel.

          

The Lakehouse Cards

Today I'm sharing some cards made with the lovely Lakehouse papers ... these cards were soooo easy to make ... all I used for the backgrounds was one bit of paper ... this one:

Then I simply added some rub-ons and embellishments that lifted them a bit. What a beautiful collection this is and how easy to pull cards together with these panels!

Thanks for visiting.
