The thing that I love about 7 Gypsies is that they come up with the most beautiful vintage finds that are readilly available to just about anyone who wants to create something with a vintage feel. I recently made a Letter Block Tray class for the "Friday" girls at Lasting Impression and this is the project that I created for them....

Here is my take on palette 29 using Prima "2 Cute" collection, Penny Black Stamps, Copic markers, and AC Dear Lizzy stickers and rub-ons...
Thanks for your visit today! Have a great weekend!
Hi everyone! I'm back with another layout for BasicGrey... this time I worked on the "Wander Line". Perfect for travel photos. But in my case, I used photos that I took during my workshop with Gunther Deichmann - an amazing photographer who is a great teacher as well.
I just love the printed paper with the cityscape... Speaking of City Landscape, I just want to share with you an amazing layout created by my friend Cathy LaHay. You just have to see this.. she made her own buildings!! Go Look HERE.
Have a great day! Oh by the way, we will be posting the winners for the Webster's Wonderfall blog hop, soon. Good luck to everyone who joined!
Hi! Here is the sketch I chose for the Pencil Lines Birthday Celebrations...
And here is my interpretation...
I love using sketches because it provides great inspiration and does not limit one's creativity. I chose this sketch because of the white space. This allows one more freedom in interpreting the sketch. I lowered the placement of the photo a little, substituted the circle for the tree, and the lines for the picket fence. After the main design was done, I just added bits of this and that to complete the look I wanted to achieve.
Materials: Echo Park "Summertime" and Hero Arts stamps, plus some Washi tape.
You can join in the celebrations and win a gift voucher from Momenta. Click here to bring you to the Pencil Lines Site. Post a comment there with the link to your take on sketch 76 (please include sketch 76 in your file name). YOu have until October 23, 12 p.m. GMT to send us a link to your layout/s. Good luck and enjoy!!
Can you believe that tomorrow we are celebrating 4 years of inspiration and creating new sketches for you!
Our design team has gone from strength to strength, we have had over 200 amazing guest designers, and over 40 gorgeous RAKS have been sent out to you, our readers and fans! Pretty impressive dont you think.
Tomorrow we are celebrating with sketches past and present. Our design team have chosen a sketch from the archives, and will be sharing with you why they love sketches so much.
On the hour, every hour from 8am GMT, a sketch will be posted along with a RAK from one of our sponsors. That is alot of prizes and alot of inspiration! At 8pm GMT we will post a brand new sketch as normal.

Scrapbook Pagemaps 2 – is currently available for pre-order at Aussie Scrap Source – so ask your local scrapbooking store to reserve you a copy now!
I am honored to say that I am a contributor in that (double page layout) book and I think you will love the sketches and the interpretations of the scrappers who are part of the book.
More than 90 brand new sketches for traditional and digital layouts, greeting cards, mini albums and home decor items, along with over 140 incredible layouts and artistic projects. This hard bound book has an interior spiral binding so the book lays flat, with 128 color pages to inspire your own artistic creations.
AND…. to co-incide with the release of Becky Fleck’s new book, Pagemaps2 Aussie Scrapsource decided to run a blog readers sketch challenge!
Each week for the next four weeks we’ll be posting three different sketches – a double layout, a single layout and a card design. We’re inviting you all to submit your layouts or cards that you have created based on the sketch, which we will post here on the blog. You will have the opportunity to vote for your favourite from each category each week..
Your favourite from each category for each week will then go up for a final vote at the end, and we’ll send the winner of each category their own brand new copy of Becky’s book, along with a prize pack of goodies!
You can see more of the details HERE and you'll find the DT's interpretations HERE.
For the sketch challenge (Not my layout in the book), I was given this sketch...
and came up with this...
I really hope you can join us at Aussie Scrap Source for the sketch challenge. The sketches are fun to do, and if you get chosen, you will receive your own copy of Becky Fleck's Page Maps 2!
