"Always Posing" Layout by DT Rochelle

Happy Tuesday!

Thanks for stopping by our blog!  Today we are sharing another DT layout inspired by our current Patterned Paper Party Challenge

SOS Designer Rochelle did an awesome job in mixing and matching patterned paper form (4) different collections to create this super cute girly page:

Rochelle: I had a great time digging in my stash for this layout!!! I used 4 different collections from My Minds Eye, Echo Park, Bo Bunny and Jillibean. I also used different manurfactorers for my embellishments: from K&Co. (rubons - swirls), Queen & Co. (bling), Crate Paper (sticker), Glitz (sticker) and Authentique (sticker). This was definitely using my stash! :)

Please stop by tomorrow, we will be revealing our May Sketch Challenge and our Guest Designer Jan Mosier will be sharing a layout inspired by this month's sketch!

Happy Scrapping!!!

Good Morning!!!

Today's inspiration is a double page layout created by SOS Designer Wendy K.  

Wendy made good use of her rub-on by using it as part of her title work: 

Wendy K: " I have been buying only kits or sets of papers for a long time now so I really dug into my stash for some misc. paper for this layout. It was a fun challenge because I love patterned paper!"

Layout by DT Haley

From the Scrap Our Stash Design Team

Today's inspiration is the work of DT Haley.  Haley's layout was inspired by our current Stash Challenge:  Patterned Paper Party

Haley:  "For this challenge, I dug DEEP into my stash for the photos (ice skating in 2009) and then found three patterned papers that I thought went well with the pictures: the green from Close To My Heart's Olivia paper pack, the purple from CTMH's Hooligans paper pack, and the blue from a Colorbok paper pad. I used some Around the Block chipboard flowers (it was spring break after all), Queen & Co. Sassy Sequins & brads, and CTMH's Nature Ambience rub-ons. Thanks for a great challenge to help me scrap some older photos!

So what patterned paper is in your stash, that you can mix and match?   We would also like to see what rub-ons you have stashed away!   Dig it all out, create a layout and link it up before the 29th of May to be entered into our monthly prize drawing!  

Enjoy the rest of your day!

"Dinner Out" Layout by DT Tamara

It's Friday and what better way to start off the weekend than with a layout about a fun day at an amusement park!
Today's layout, inspired by our Patterned Paper Challenge was created by our DT Tamara:

Tamara:  "This was a great way to use some pattern paper scraps from my stash. I used six pieces to give all this color to my layout. I used making memories retreat rubons as well as Gin X rubons from imagination project. I also added some flowers and brads from my stash to balance out the layout."

I hope that you have been inspired this week to pull out your stash of patterned papers, match them up and create a layout to enter into our challenge this month for a chance to win our monthly prize:

"So Happy Together" Layout by DT Tammy

Hello

I hope everyone has had an awesome National Scrapbooking Weekend and you were able to join in some of the challenges and giveaways!!!   

Today SOS Designer Tammy is sharing a layout she created inspired by our 

Patterned Paper Party Challenge, which Tammy claims was a challenge for her but I think she did a great job mixing and matching patterned papers from various collections!!!

Tammy: "This challenge was a little challenging for me because although I love to use a lot of patterned paper, I don't usually mix manufacturers or collections. What a great challenge for me to step outside my comfort zone! My patterned papers were from Elle's Studio, Basic Grey, and Webster's Pages, as well as Luxe Rub-ons, My Mind's Eye decorative buttons and twine from The Twinery. I also used Debbie Sanders for Scrapbook Generation sketch for inspiration."

Thank for stopping by, we hope you get a chance to dig in your stash, mix and match some paper, create a layout and upload it to our challenge.   You have until May 29th to enter!!!

Happy Saturday and Happy NSD!!!!!

Today's bright, colorful inspiration is the work of DT Karen!   She dug deep into her stash and matched up a lot of her scrap pieces to create this adorable page inspired by our 

Patterned Paper Party Challenge

Karen:  "I decided to use as many scrap of paper and border punches as I could muster to make this LO. the photos are of my daughter cuddling her cousin when we went to visit recently. there are thirteen different papers on here from at least three different manufacturers and although there are quite a lot of American Crafts papers there are at least three different collections in there as well

I don't really buy rub ons unless they come in a pack of other stuff but I did manage to find one October Afternoon one that fit with the LO ( the hand)"

Here is what Kelly says about her layout:

"I had so much fun with this sweet photo of my baby on his 2nd birthday. He woke with such a happy face after his nap knowing his party was coming soon. :) I used papers from Echo Park About A Boy, Simple Stories 24/7, Echo Park Hello Summer and Websters pages Game On collections.
