Sketch support Layouts with Fresh Goods and Rocket Age

My new favorite scraping site is Sketch Support.They have the best sketches with tons of inspiration.I have been having so much fun using their sketches on my layouts.There is something so relaxing to me about having a great sketch as I put a layout together.It really lets me create in a happy place :) I tend to over think my layouts, and it takes days to finish one.This has really helped me get my pictures on some paper, and finally stop over thinking every little thing.

The First layout was made with Pebbles, Fresh Goods Collection.I just cut little strips for the banner it was so fun.I am not in love with my handwriting and would really rather have it printed, but I am trying to make myself not use the computer as much for journaling.My family will love seeing my handwriting someday. I really loved this sketch because It really only took a small amount of paper to get a really nice look. Most of the strips across are just the tear tabs from the bottoms of the papers.Who does not like to get more bang for your buck, and when paper is about a buck a sheet using every inch is a good thing.

This layout was from October Afternoons Rocket age Collection.I just love this collection.Maybe because it's just so Riley.I am noticing that stars are on so many layouts lately, I just love it.I used my Lifestyle crafts nesting stars for this.

My Minds Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks and Dilly Dally

 






I am in love with this new collection from My Minds Eye.I have made two layouts so far, and have many more spinning in my head.The first is from the fiddlesticks collection.I was so happy to see yellow and lavender, it works perfect for Jacques wedding pictures.
The second is from the Dilly Dally collection.I think my favorite of it all, are the wood patterns.

Cupcake with American Crafts Garden Cafe (scraplift)

When I saw Shimelle Laines layout here http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1223/american-crafts-scrapbooking-blog-hop/
I knew it would be the perfect layout for Jacque's wedding cupcakes.Of course if my bestest friend Carmen from clix by carmen clix by carmen had not taken the pretty cupcake picture, I would not have had such a perfect picture for it.
I loved this paper line from American Crafts its the Garden Cafe line.
I fussy cut the flowers, I love when I can embellish so easily.
Shimelle's is way cuter but I am so thankful for her inspiration her blog and work is amazing.I could look at her blog all day.

Valentine Cone Wreath with Echo Parks "Yours Truly"

 My Valentine Wreath. 
I made this using a tutorial from Amber Packer, found here http://www.amberpacker.com/amber/2012/01/lovely-cone-wreathgtu.html She is amazing!!! 
It came together so sweetly.
I used 2 Echo park 6x6 paper pads from the Yours Truly Line.
I love the pink and grey combo.
This would make a beautiful wreath for anytime of year and was only about 12.00 to make.
Thanks for looking.
