What A Little Weirdo

Blue And Yellow, Brads And Baubles

Ugh, I've been so busy lately! I can't believe January is almost over! This month has been a post Christmas blur filled with long work hours and me frantically trying to catch up on some of the games that came out over the holiday season. Yes, I love video games, (and Final Fantasy XV is soooo good you guys!) and I play them often. I finally found some time to get some scrapping in and here's what I came up with.

I started with solid yellow paper and arranged my paper pieces on top. I usually don't do a lot of geometric paper piecing on my pages because my corners never line up perfectly, but I really liked the January sketch at Creative Scrappers so I decided to give it a try. I used paper from Mometa and from Paper Studio's Tattered and Worn pad.

I used one big photo instead of three little ones. It features my spazzy cat and the odd sleeping position I caught her in one day. I put the title on top of a couple of tags and embellished with various brads, rhinestones, pushpin stickers by Jolee's Boutique, Kimono tape, Paper Studio cat saying stickers, Sandylion cat stickers, and Tim Holtz idea-ology stickers.

I LOVE the mood board provided by The Studio Challenges this month. The yellow and blue tones are so fun and the geometric shapes reflect the shapes in my layout.

That's all for now. See you next time scrappers!

Golden Days

Shades Of Blue And Turquoise Too

Some of the perks of living in Southern California include warm, wonderful beach weather all year long. While these pictures were take during the height of summer, it was only last week that my husband and I went to the very same spot so he could take photos of the sunset.

This page was modeled after the November sketch at Stuck?! Sketches. It was perfect for showing off two vertical photos. I was particularly inspired by design member Morag. I really liked her interpretation with torn paper and lots of embellishments.

This color palette was taken from Color, Stories, Inspiration's 218th case file. The blues, turquoises and yellows were a wonderful compliment to my beachy, blue background photos. I chose the make dark blue the feature color to really make the photos and yellow accents pop.

Evidence Used:

  • Dots/Speech Bubble (Speech Bubble Paperclip Embellishment)
  • Animals (K & Company die Cut Card Stock Travel)
  • Circles (Jolee's Boutique Dimensional Stickers Waves)
