I chose the right side.  Photos of my hubby enjoying a Beaver Tail on his birthday.  And no, they aren't real beaver...they are fried dough.

The 8 different types of scrapbook items I used were: 4 patterned papers; stickers; wooden piece; enamel dots and a cork arrow.

Cardstock: Bazzill
Pattern Papers/Stickers: Simple Stories - Vintage Blessings
Wooden Piece: Studio Calico
Enamel Dots: Simple Stories
Arrow: The Paper Studio

Note: the flowers and large heart are fussycut from patterned paper.

SCRAP OUR STASH December 2019 - Saturday Morning Cartoon Sketch Challenge


Since this cartoon had a Christmas vibe to it, I used some Christmas morning photos from 2017. I included red, green and blue paper; stuck close to the sketch except I extended the triangle a bit; two photos instead of three; and the gold is in the trim and ornament hangers with bows on top of the ornaments.

Patterned Paper: My Minds Eye - Signature Christmas (you should see the sparkle on this!)
Diecuts (flowers and leaves): Kaisercraft
Wooden ornaments: American Crafts (covered with patterned paper)
Rhinestones: Want 2 Scrap
Gold pleated trim: Stampin Up
Gold embroidery floss: DMC
Title chipboard: Blue Fern Studios coloured with Tim Holtz distress markers
Edging ink: Close to My Heart

All challenge information and more inspiration from our design team can be found on the Scrap Our Stash blog HERE.

We spent Christmas 2017 at this beautiful inn in Prince Edward County, Ontario.
