Hello Scrappy Peeps! We've done it again!! Since we had a record number of players for our July "Double Dare" 2 page layout, we decided to CHALLENGE you all with another 2 PAGER for September!
This 2 page sketch caught our eye on a post on Pinterest - (serious inspiration on that website -right?!!) and we HOPE you will PLAY ALONG with us this month!
So without further "A-DOO" - here is the sketch for this month's challenge: (CLICK on the photos below to enlarge)
Now, for your INSPIRATION.....
Here is our DT Member Adina's Inspiration "BOOGIE MAMBO":
Besides the adorable photos of her little girl, I'm LOVIN' her use of the Tattered Angel's Chalkboard Glimmer Mists in the "white" spaces of the layout!! That sparkly Blue ribbon from May Arts across the top really "BLINGS" out the layout -and makes those dance costumes sparkle too!
Here are the items from Scrap-a-Doodle Doo that Adina used in her AWESOME Layout! CLICK ON them and check them out!
Tattered Angels Chalkboard Glimmer Mist - Canary
Bazzill Canvas Cardstock - Arctic
Bazzill Cardstock Lemon Drop Yellow
Queen &Co Self Adhesive Rhinestones - Brilliant Blue
Next up is my layout.
Now, for those of you that know me - you know that I'm all about layers, and mixing patterned paper. This sketch was a challenge to me at first, with all that white space!! After a trip to THE DOO - I found this AWESOME NEW Paper Line "SNAPSHOTS" from Bella Blvd and I just "had to have it!!" I decided it was perfect and used it to really put my own twist on the sketch by filling that white space in! What do you think?......
These photos are from our trip to North Topsail Beach, NC, a few weeks ago. We had a great time relaxing, and I had a blast "Snapping Pics!" I LOVE LOVE LOVE the layered banners!!! I'm going to have to use this idea on layouts in the future!! I had FUN using the HOT NEW "ZIG" Wink of Stella Brush! I used the Distress Stains to color in the Tim Holtz Grungeboard letters I used for the title -then used the CLEAR Zig Stella Brush over the top of them, and then gave them a coat of clear DIMENSIONAL MAGIC.
Here are the items from The Doo that I used:
