Sneak Peak

Welcome to Scrapbooking Global - Stampin' Up! Blog Hop - Feb 20 2025
This month's theme is a Sketch which our Creative Design Team Member Julia chose.

Scrapbooking Global - Stampin' Up! FB group consists of over 11,000 members.
We are a  group demonstrators from all over the world who all LOVE to scrapbook and document their everyday lifestyle for generations to enjoy in the future.

We welcome anyone who wants to be inspired to join in the FUN of a Blog Hop.
We are trying to encourage EVERYONE to join in the HOP's every month.
BUT you don't have to have a blog to participate in these monthly challenges.
You can upload a photo of layout to the Album of the Month after 2pm AEST on Feb 20th
You can JOIN Scrapbooking Global - Stampin' Up! FB group here.

As I said Julia chose this sketch and our Lovely graphics designer Courtenay created this sketch design for us for the Feb Sketch Challenge

You may have joined me from Sherry's Blog or you are just joining me from my link.

My layout was created using products from the Everyday You and Me Scrapbooking Kit.
I have also included some FREE Sale-A-Bration paper Toadstool Gardens DSP.
Some of the accents/embellishments are from Autumn To Remember Scrapbooking Kit.

As soon as I saw this sketch I knew I would LOVE creating this layout to show you.
I LOVE a bit of grunge as a change from my normal style of scrapbooking.

So the background is the Toadstool Gardens DSP with grunged up edges and Wild Wheat Classic Stampin' Pad ink around the edges and where I knew that my centre piece of two-toned cardstock was going to rest.

As you can see in the sketch there was a torn section across the middle section I chose to 
use two-toned Pretty Peacock cardstock and then adding some of the blending behind on the Lost Lagoon two-toned cardstock to give the depth of perception thinking that it is torn behind as well BUT it isn't!!

The middle section is Lost Lagoon two-toned cardstock which I grunged up and tore some
pieces away and added the Pretty Peacock two-toned cardstock in there.
On this piece I also added some text and dottage in the background from Elements of Text Cling Stamp just as you can see in the sketch.

I added some of the Gold Open Weave Trim across the middle as well to add more depth behind the photos not that you can see much of it.

Next I layered up the photographs so that you could see the height between the 2 photos
this allowed for one photo to fit behind the other.  How I do this is I use the grey chipboard backing card that comes with our DSP and I layer it up so that I can create height rather than using lots of dimensionals...

I have finished off the layout with some of the sticker accents/embellishments from
Everyday You and Me Scrapbooking Kit and the Autumn To Remember Chipboard sheets.
Some twine around the photograph to finish it off.

The colours are a bit off due to the extreme sunshine here today...
Not really sure which photos I will put on this layout BUT I am sure that my words
will work with any occasion <3

Up Next is Maz Wood

I hope that you enjoy all the different layouts that have been created today.
