Use Your Stuff Challenge #371 - Mood Board

I was inspired by the green walls and the large lamp shade.  I had a stamp set with lamps on it that I've never used, so I dug it out.

From an idea found on Pinterest

Scrap our Stash August Saturday Cartoon Sketch Challenge - We Are Family - 2019

A photo of me, my mom, sister, niece, 2 cousins and a friend (who's like family) relaxing and having fun before a family event.  

I was inspired by the green, blue and yellow on the cartoon image.  I turned the sketch 90 degrees to the left, enlarged the main photo and instead of three smaller photos, made them into the title block. The flowers are fussycut from a sheet of patterned paper. The matting is shiny gold paper to match some of the shiny gold dots in the background.

Scrap our Stash - July Pick Your Side Sketch Challenge - Rainbow Face 2019

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

Journaling: The light shining through the prism on the mirror at the restaurant caused this rainbow effect to show up on Laura's face. 

I chose the left side of the sketch.  

To make the rainbow, I cut a rainbow shape from some white cardstock and stuck down the sticky stitches onto the shape.
