Cosmo Cricket for Sketches in Thyme

 Welcome to my project for Sketches in Thyme Facebook Group. More scrapping of the Frida interactive exhibit in Chicago. I took these photos of the projected scene on the walls from a second floor overlook. It was a great experience, I'd love to see another artist's interactive exhibit.  I accentuated the artsyness with a Creative Memories sticker letter title, a Prima Ruby Violet flower I retooled a bit and a lovely laser cut tag.

Here is this week's sketch.

I forgot to mention the metallic butterfly sticker.  I have to admit I can't remember the brand. I layered all four photos on black card stock.

I had tons of fun layering the different color vellums.  I believe they were part of a kit I separated to get more use of the parts, could be in error here as well.  I have taken to removing packaging if it doesn't fit in my scraprack pages.

Ingredients:

Cosmo Cricket paper

Creative Memories sticker letters

kraft laser cut tag with fiber

Prima Ruby Violet Bits & Baubles flower altered

butterfly sticker

black card stock and various colors of vellum

Play along with this week's Sketches in Thyme Facebook Group sketch or any of the other three from May.

Concord & 9th You rock card for Atlantic Hearts Challenge

Hi there and welcome to my blog.  Today's card follows this week's Atlantic Hearts Sketch #630.  I created this one for my husband's birthday. I used all my Concord & 9th musical goodies.  My husband really liked it.

Here is this week's sketch.

I stamped the background. I have to admit when I bought this stamp, I didn't realize how it worked.  I was so excited to discover the extra value of stamping the records a different color by rotating the stamp!

I die cut the vinyl out of glossy black card stock perfect!

Ingredients:

Concord & 9th For the Record stamps and dies

Concord & 9th Greatest Hits dies

Scrapbook.com Black and White glossy card stock A2 paper pad

Frantic Stamper Dance Sing Rock dies

blingy ribbon
