Creative Scrappers Sketch #305 & The Cut Shoppe Team Up

Hey friends!! Happy Saturday to y'all!! A couple of us at The Cut Shoppe Design Team played along with sketch #305 from Creative Scrappers. I used Doodlebug's Cream & Sugar collection to create this Spring/Easter layout:

How I adore this collection!! 

Sketch #305

As you can see, instead of the circles I used the TCS "Hip Hop" cut file to cut 3 different sized (green) Easter Bunnies. Love them!! 

Here are a couple close-ups:

Love the tea cups, especially the "Tea for Two Doodle-Pops":

Or how about the Mini Donuts Doodle-Pops?!

The cute die-cuts are from the Odds & Ends Cream & Sugar :

And these are the cut files from The Cut Shoppe I used:

Hip Hop:

Full Bloom:

With Love - Creative Scrappers #295

Have you seen the fun June sketch from Creative Scrappers? I decided to play as soon as I saw it! Here's what I did using the Scraptastic Club May kit "Eloise" and add-on.

This photo of my daughter and her partner was taken during our holiday in the south of France last year.

And here are two close-ups: 

Love all the Amy Tangerine gold stickers, but they are hard to take a picture of!

And this is the fun CS sketch #295 Kristine designed. I might have added a few adjustments here and there, but I think you can still recognize it ...

Thank you so much for stopping by and wishing you a happy weekend!

Creative Scrappers Sketch #286 - Chickaniddy Crafts

It's time for the reveal of Creative Scrappers' sketch #286!! And a wonderful one it is!
For today's sketch I used a photo taken during the Scrapbook Nederland Christmas crop marathon!

When I saw this photo I just knew I wanted to use Chickaniddy Craft's "Jolly Good" collection to scrap it! Lucky for me the Scraptastic had (and has) it in store!!

I just adore the die-cuts! Look at that bear .... love!

I did a lot of stitching, even right through the title.

If you're looking for this collection, then take a look HERE!! The Scraptastic Store has a lot of fabulous collections and Jessica's adds new product almost every day!

And this is today's sketch, designed by Kristine Davidson herself:

For the time being this will be the last sketch reveal for Creative Scrappers. Kristine has decided to take a break from Creative Scrappers, but she will definitely have other reveals throughout the year. If you leave your email address in the "CS newsletter/email" box on the Creative Scrappers blog you'll be notified as soon as she posts a new one.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Wishing you a wonderful Sunday!

Love this collection and the matching wood veneers:

Still loving these Thickers, I've used them on numerous layouts but still haven't enough of them, although I do find them hard to photograph....
