~ Creative Scrappers: Apr challenge, sketch #100 & Create 10 Day 6 ~

I'm slowly prodding along with my online class. I'm determined to ensure I complete them as it's a shame  not to. Anyway, I combined Day 6 class with a sketch from Creative Scrappers:

Here's my LO: 

Made use of Scarlet Lime Mar10 kit (it was getting a bit neglected). Did a Xmassy theme for this LO as the photo was taken last Christmas. Raided my Xmas stash to fill in the bits. Day 6 class was about dressing up embellishments and I did, using stamps and Promarkers/Copics!

Onward to the next class... TTFN!

~ Sketchy Thursdays: 4.15 Challenge, Who's That Girl #7 & Create 10 Day 5 ~ ~

Combine 3 challenges into 1 LO, can't help it now that the school term has started and it's back to routines again. I welcome the opportunity to scrap except I only have limited time to do so. Anyway, here are the challenges: 

Sketchy Thursdays Sketch 4.15 challenge. This is the sketch: 

Sketchy Thursdays have combine challenge with Who's That Girl and they have a prompt: 'Right Now' 

Right Now - while the core of who you are doesn't change, I find that my interests and activities tend to evolve from one year to the next.  Take a moment to capture the things you are into RIGHT NOW. 

Create 10 Day 5 class is about 'Journaling the Day'.

Here's my LO. I took bits from each of the 3 challenges to create this LO: 

Made use of Scarlet Lime March10 kit (it was getting a wee bit neglected). The scraps were from my card scraps (that part came from Create 10 class). For the journaling, I wrote about what my role was right now, my interests and what I like to do.

Having fun combining challenges. On to the next class...a little behind at the moment. TTFN!

~ Create 10 Card ~

A card challenge was set to make use of the techniques learnt in Day 1. Well, here's my card:

Patterned paper by Basic Grey Kioshi collection and I used an {ippity} stamp set called Where You Should Be.

Here's my handmade rosebud, sprinkled with glitter at the top. 

Enjoyed making those flowers.... quite addictive. TTFN!

~ Sketchy Thursdays: May GDT sketch & Create 10 Day 4 ~

Woke up to a sunny Sunday and decided to spent the day crafting instead... sorry, as much as I luv to see the sun in this country, I'm no sun worshipper and you won't catch me sunbathing at all!!! Let's just say the fear of getting wrinkles and sun-damage skin weigh heavily on my mind! Besides, I devoted the last two weeks to my boys and it was time to claim a bit of 'me' time to myself. So hubs brought them out and entertained them. 

I started with Day 4 of the Create 10 project. There was a template to use and to create a fabric flower. I teamed it with a sketch from Sketchy Thursdays to produce this LO:

Here's the sketch:

And my LO:

Made use of Studio Calico April kit. For Create 10 Day 4 class, made use of the shirt template to create a bunting. In place of fabric materials, I substituted for lace to create my flowers (I'm a lace hoarder and got loads of them as opposed to fabric). For Sketchy Thursdays challenge, the theme was celebration and to use the colour green. Well, this LO is about celebrating Spring... when it came, we lost no time in heading to the beach!

I'm having a whale of a time doing the Create 10 classes. TTFN!

~ Creative Scrappers: Apr challenge, sketch #98 & Create 10 Day 2 ~

I'm having fun with the Create 10 classes and I did Day 2 which comprise of using a heart template coupled with embellishing hearts using ribbons. I kill two birds with one stone, I made use of a sketch by Creative Scrappers: 

Here's my LO: 

LO done using Studio Calico April kit. Luv that paper which incidentally is a SC paper. I covered the hearts with scraps of ribbons. The hearts/swirl template came from the class. 

Another fun LO to do. Off to finish the other classes... TTFN!

~ Sketchy Thursdays: Spring Challenge Blog Hop & Create 10 Day 1 ~

After much hesitation (just the fact that I'm so short of time these days), I enrolled with Crafty Templates Create 10 class. A class that contains 10 projects for 10 days. So far, what I like about it is that fact that techniques are taught, not just mere scraplift of a LO. So I started with Day 1, took the techniques and produced a LO based on a sketch by Sketchy Thursdays.

I played with a Spring Challenge Blog Hop sketch on Sketchy Thursdays. The blog is part of a group of blogs involved in a Spring Blog Hop, only for this week. Here's the sketch:

Here's my LO incorporating techniques from Create 10 Day 1 and the sketch: 

LO created using Studio Calico April kit. 

A closeup of the handmade flowers, sprinkled with a bit of sticklers and a gem in the centre.

I placed a large lace on the paper and sprayed it with Cosmic Shimmer. This resulted in a lacey background. My bunting, stamped and cut out.

Had fun making this LO. One of my fav I reckon! TTFN!
