"Us" Layout by DT Megan

Hello!

Today's fabulous inspiration is the creative work of DT Megan, inspired by our 

February Sketch with Stash Challenge:

Here is what Megan shared about her layout:

"For this layout, I scrapped a picture of my husband and I from the fall. I substituted doilies for the hearts in the sketch and added lots of layering. For the heart and arrow, I used wood veneers and colored them with chalk ink. I cut out the title and a few other elements from gold POW paper from American Crafts using my silhouette cameo. The products are mostly Maggie Holmes lines for Crate Paper."

"I Love You" Layout by DT Tanti

Hello and thank you for stopping by!

Today's featured layout is being shared by DT Tanti, inspired by our

February Sketch With Stash Challenge:

Here is what Tanti shared about her layout:

"For this sketch I've decided to make a girly layout again I had a lot of fun making this page, using almost all of my old embellishments. 

All the papers I used including that heart PP for the background is from the old DCWV paper collection „Madly In Love“. 

I drew freehanded two big hearts with a pencil and coloured one of them with the water colour. I didn't erase the pencil line to give my page an interesting touch. And the other heart is a shaker background with sequins in it.

My premade heart and arrow embellishments are those glitter foam rubber stickers at both corners and also the three mini heart puffy stickers on the polaroid frame. Unfortunately I don't know from which company they are."

Remember you have until tomorrow Feb 27th, 11:59 PM (PST) to create a layout inspired by either or both of our February Challenges and link up with us for a chance to win a $20 gift card, generously provided by our awesome sponsor this month:

Enjoy the rest of your day!!!!

"Oh So Lovely" Layout by DT Kerry

Thank you for stopping by to check out today's awesome inspiration created by 

DT Kerry and inspired by our 

February Sketch with Stash Challenge 

Kerry shared this about her layout:

"I have been wanting to use this heart paper for ages and so when this challenge came up I just knew it was perfect! The photo of my youngest DD and our old cat was very colourful so I re-printed it in B & W so it wouldn't clash with my colour choice for my page.

The packaged hearts are the brad in the centre of the rosette and two heart pins. The arrow is under the photo and originally was wooden but I dressed it up by covering it in gold washi tape and a star sequin.

I really hope you can join in the fun with this challenge and I look forward to seeing your creations."

Double Design Team Inspiration Today!!!!!

Happy Monday!!!

February is a short month so today, we have doubled up on Design Team inspiration!!!

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, and gt ready to be inspired with today's double dose of beautiful inspiration created by DT Kate and DT Kelly, inspired by our

February Sketch with Stash Challenge:

First up is DT Kate sharing her lovely layout,

"The Best Is Yet to Come"

Here is what kate shared about her layout:

"Just a casual family picture-We try to catch daddy in the picture when we can which isn't as often as we'd like!

This was the last day of school June 2013-a tradition we do instead of the first day of school,; it's less chaotic! Anytime I can scrap a family picture is a good day for me and as our kids are doing better in school and getting older, we believe the best is yet to come!!

I used my wood veneer as my arrow (I am addicted to wood veneers) and used some Elle's Studio wood veneer hearts in there as well as some Heidi Swapp hearts. Heart paper is from the awesome Creative Girl collection by Cosmo Cricket. The rest is just stash that I thought was romantic and said LOVE to me"

Now check out this adorable layout created by DT Kelly

"Nighttime Moments"

And this is what Kelly shared about her layout:

"My Minds Eye Love me Do patterned papers have been hanging around for a while and were perfect for this sweet photo of my boys. I used the Studio Calico wood veneer hearts and arrow and my mini heart punch for extra floating hearts. Such a super fun sketch to work with!"

Today we are featuring DT Robin's fun take on our 

February Sketch with Stash Challenge:

Here is what Robin shared about her layout:

"Here’s my take on this month’s Stash & Sketch challenge. I cut a large heart out of heart patterned paper using Clear Scraps Heart acrylic shape. For my arrow, I used an arrow and heart rub-on by Amy Tangerine. I painted the blue heart chipboard piece to match the blue in the heart patterned paper. I love this color combination!" — at Redd Robin Studios.

February Sketch with Stash Challenge:

Here is what Patricia shared about her layout:

"Well this sketch was fun! As mentioned in the last challenge I normally don't have a lot of themed stuff hanging around, but I thought I would take a stab at free cutting my own hearts! I think I did a good job!=)

This layout shows me and my #1 acting silly as usual. One of my hearts contained the heart themed paper and the arrows are corkboard...love those things!

Hope you are enjoying working with the sketch this month! 

Love is definitely in the air!"

Hello and welcome back for another day of Design Team inspiration!

Today we are featuring this awesome layout created by DT Elizabeth, inspired by our

February Sketch with Stash Challenge

Elizabeth shared this about her layout:

"I love sketches as they are a jump start for creativity! I went with the over all structure of the layout, but added my hearts in the clusters and focused on that. I also used the button as my heart and added the chipboard made arrow! I love this photo of Mitchell & I. We carve out times to just go out and be together and because I wasn't working, I met him at his work and took him to lunch! It was the perfect date."

We would love to see your take on this challenge!

"Love, You + Me = Good Times" Layout by DT Dulcinea

Happy Monday!

Today's sweet Sketch with Stash inspiration is being shared by DT Dulcinea:

This is what Dulcinea shared about her layout:

"For this layout I wanted a lovely, but masculine look. For that reason I choose a clean white background with  heart stitching to give a texture and matching the sketch and some geometric elements. I used two hearts patterned paper on the back of my picture, from Carta Bella's "Hello Again" Collection.. One has the same geometric look of the sticker heart that I used as an embellishment. I then completed my page with a heart (stickers and wood), arrows (stickers), some sequins and a little bit of stamping.  My layout is about my two lovers: my husband and our cat on their moments."

We have provided the sketch, Frosted Designs has provided this month's prize, so now all you need to do is dig into that large stash of yours and pull out some patterned paper with hearts, an arrow and a heart, and create a wonderful page to share with us!!!

Looking forward to seeing all of your beautiful pages!

Have a great day!
