Good Morning

Hello ladies, hope today finds you all well and scrapping!

This week we are bringing you a beautiful sketch by one of our CISters, Ali.

Thanks Ali for creating such a lovely sketch to work with.




Here is the digital sketch created by Jolene.

Here is the hand drawn sketch by Ali.

Here is the layout "Plot, Search, Find" created by Ali - I just love the colours and that very huge bracket. Great family layout Ali.

Here is the layout "Sydney Harbour Cruise Highlights" created by Terri - I just love that great photo and how Terri has created her title. From the Crafting in Style shop, Terri has used Basic Grey Scarlet's Letter paper and the Perhaps letter stickers.

Here is the layout "It's Over" created by Marni - don't you just love what she has done with those colours and papers. A great, fresh combination.

Here is the layout "Smile" created by Nae - aren't those photos so cute and what a great smile Willow has.

Here is the layout "Very Merry" by Tam - lol don't you love those very merry photos. Tam has used Heidi Swapp alphas and Hambly overlay from the Crafting in Style shop.

This layout "Time Away" has been created by Jolene - don't you just love all the buttons and journalling blocks she has used and those photos make you want to go to the beach and play in the sand and water. I am sure everything on this layout can be purchased from the Crafting in Style shop (if Jolene left any for the rest of us lol)

And here is my layout "A Daughter is" a day brighter and a heart warmer. From the Crafting in Style shop I have used Basic Grey Perhaps papers, Queen & Co Felt Fusion, Cats Life journalling stamp.

Well I certainly hope you have all been inspired by all of these beautiful layouts.

Thanks to Ali for creating a lovely sketch and layout and thanks to Terri, Marni, Nae, Tam & Jolene for using this great sketch to create their beautiful layouts.

Next week we are bringing you another card sketch so if you haven't finished off your christmas cards yet you will love using this card sketch.

Have a great week and I hope you get a lot of scrapping done. Remember when you have created your layouts using our sketches make sure to upload them to our Sketch Gallery so we can all enjoy them.

Happy Scrapping

A new sketch by one of our very own CISter's

I asked the girls at Crafting In Style to help me design a few sketches for the sketch blog. They did a fabulous job. This first sketch has been done by Wendy Smith, focusing on layering and 6x8" photo.



I wanted to include her very own sketch she made up.

And of course her absolutely gorgeous LO that she did as an example for the sketch.


Liz also took on the challenge and came up with this gorgeous LO of her gorgeous girl having a play in the park.
Further news, I have asked Liz to be our Sketch Blog Coordinator. We want to welcome her to the sketch blog team. We currently have a 'call' out for our Stylish Sketch Blog as designers, and she will be working closely with them to bring you new sketches and example LO's each week!

Till next time when Liz will bring you more inspiration!
