Saturday Sketch at Kaisercraft

So this is the layout I did for the Kaisercraft blog recently 
using the gorgeous Storyteller Collection...

“Kiah” Layout  

Kaisercraft Products: P1501 Memoir, P1503 Myth, P1507 Reminisce, P1509 Fiction, CT793 Collectables, EM926 White Lace,  IP708 Bark Ink, RS403 Antique Rose Rhinestones, T611 Diamond Template. Other: Brown Pen, Black Alpha Rubons, Orange and Red Ink.

This is the Sketch it was based on....

And this is the layout the sketch was based on ( By Melissa K).... you can see the original post over at the Kaisercraft Blog by clicking on THIS LINK.

 

Mine is kind of like the original ... if you squint your eyes!! LOL
 I just cant help sticking tones of stuff on my pages ... that just how I roll! :)

True Romance Sketch

Today I have used the last of my True Romance Collection to follow along with the Kaisercraft Saturday Sketch.

So I can honestly say that my playing along with the sketch today was an epic fail!! LOL

If you tilt the sketch below once to the right thats what this was based on, but even I can see that my imagination got the better of me... he he he.

I don't mind this layout on its own but I really needed hot pink ink for those inked highlights on the borders ... the pink I had was more like red and so nothing sits quite right on this layout for me!

This only goes to support my long held beliefe that you can never have too many Inks!!

Thanks for popping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

                 

True Romance Cards

Just popping by to share a couple of cards I've made using the True Romance Collection.

For these cards I just stuck with paper from the 6.5 x 6.5" paper pad and die cut elements from the Collectables pack

Very clean. Very simple. Very Easy!

This collection has loads of lovely little birds in it that make scrapbooking and card making uber easy... I love these kinds of embellishments .... the kind that just slip into a design effortlessly... couple of rhinestones or pearls to finish and bob's your uncle. :)

If you haven't got your hands on this Collection yet, do yourself a favour and grab so... they are REALLY lovely!

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

Saturday Sketch #1 June 2013

For todays sketch I have used the True Romance Collection.

This is a lovely soft collection to work with and I'm adoring all the pretty pinks in it! I decided to go with 2 photos today as I'm challenging myself to get more photos on my pages from now on.

I actually really liked the sketch this week and flet it left lots of room to move with the scope of the design so adapting it to two photo layout wasn't a problem at all.

Here is the sketch its all based on...

I Think I'm rediscovering all my ribbons again at the moment also... I just love using them on a page!

Thanks for popping by for a look.

Have a great week.

Cheers from Kelly-ann.

Saturday Sketch #1 May 2013

 Todays Saturday Sketch is a busy one! I've used the Porcelain Rose Collection again this time.

I rarely do pages with this many photos on it and it was a bit of fun to put together this arrangement!!

I stuck with the busy theme and kept lots of movement on the page as well as keeping as closely to the original sketch as I could. I also gladly took up the journaling challenge ... I think it's important to do this kind of page every now and then, and really tell the story.

Anyway, this is the sketch it's all based on...

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann.

Saturday Sketch #3 March 2013

For this weeks Sketch I have used the In The Attic Collection.

This was such a simple sketch to pull together ... i love those kinds of sketches!!

This vintage style collection is so lovely to work with, the bright reds and greens set of this black and white photo beautifully.

Again I have used more of the new printed tape from Kaisercraft which I just adore.

Here is the original sketch the layout is based on:

Saturday Sketch #2 March 2013

 Well this week I have used the Lavender Haze Collection for my Saturday Sketch.... this whole collection is just perfect for little girls!

The sample page for the sketch this week was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and inspired me no end. This is the sketch that it's based on...

I mostly used a whole lot of border punches and ink on this page... the ink I used was quite a bright red one ... I always use a red ink when working with pinks as I think it frames all pink tones wonderfully.

O have also used the large stamp that came with this collection to make this flourish image...

I'm still so impressed with Kaisercraft stamps... they are so diverse and beautiful and as you can see, match the collections perfectly!

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann.

Saturday Sketch # 1 March 2013

For this sketch I have used the lovely Lulu and Roy Collection.

The sketch was simple and straight forward... 

And I decided to just run with the same format, focusing more on titles and text than embellishments.

The scalloped border you can see around the outside edge of my page is the new printed tape from Kaisercraft ( like washi tape).

I just love this stuff, its so easy to use and so very effective.

To finish off the whole page I covered the lot with the Lulu and Roy acetate sheet ... I just love the way the corner pictures ease themselves gently over both the page and photos!

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann

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.

Saturday Sketch #2 Feb 2013

For this weeks Saturday Sketch I have used the beautiful 

Butterfly Kisses Collection released a few months back ... 

it was perfect for my miss matched photo of one of my little daughter all dressed up and asleep!

The sketch was easy to follow and the embellishments in this collection lent themselves to the task beautifully.

I have used my favourite Martha Stewart punch (Cherish) around the outside of this page and I feel like it really makes it.... and of course no page is complete for me until I've managed to get a few butterflies in there! LOL

Here is the sketch its all based on:

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.

Sat. Sketch #4 Jan 2013

I loved this weeks sketch and had a ball putting it together with the Marigold Collection.

I used my favourite Doily mask again as well... I simple adore the effect this creates on backgrounds!

Besides the masking, everything on this page is pretty straight forward... pearls, stickers, a few collectables and some sewing on the outside edge.

This is the sketch that the layout is based on:

Thanks for stopping by smiles from Kel.
