Scrap Queen

Let's Scrap has another fabulous sketch this week. I am skating by as it's due soon, but it was such a good one I had to get it in there! The Sketch: My take: My husband went to Canada with a friend last summer on a 5 day golf trip. As you can tell it was gorgeous and they had fabulous weather! This layout was created using DCWV's Lemon Flower stack. The title "Fore!" Comes from the Child's Year Cricut Cartridge. The corner golf ball and ball/tee border came from the Sports Mania cartridge. I used chipboard letters for the other title. Till Next Time,

The circles were all cut using the George and Basic Shapes Cricut cartridge. The title "report" was cut using the Type Candy Font cart. Till next time,

Check out the sketches and my take on them below.

To create this layout I used the blue base paper from DCWV's White Ginger Stack. The corresponding accent papers come from Me and My Big Ideas. I cut out the Boyz title using the Boys Will Be Boys Cricut Cartridge and the sun is a journal card from My Mind's Eye. The Sketch: My Take: You would think my d...
