It's Sketchy Saturday on the Paper Issues Blog and I am playing along!  Here is my take on the sketch:

And now for the close ups:

This is the fantastic sketch that I based my layout on.

Woo hoo!  I'm back today with a layout inspired by Paper Issues July Pinspire Me challenge! Here's my layout all about an unfortunate, tragic, s'mores mishap. 

Sometimes, the marshmallow just jumps into your hair, right? Here are a few close ups.

I pulled my inspiration from this mood board. I was inspired by the s'mores and other tasty treats, and I loved the colors here!

Hi!  Happy 5th of July! I'm participating in the July Take 5 Tuesday Challenge over on the Paper Issues Blog today.  I scrapped this photo from the 4th of July, 2013. 

I went all out theme-y for this one (which isn't usually my style, but I kinda like it anyway)! I pulled all of my patterned papers and stickers from Amy Tangerine's Better Together collection. I added some blue and red sequins from Jillibean Soup, and Mister Huey's for the paint splatters!

I created this fireworks cut file and it's available in the shop for free!  I backed the cut file with various papers from the Better Together Collection.

To participate in Take 5 Tuesday, you just need to pick 5 of the things from the list and use them! I used 8 (I've always been an over achiever)! Ha!
