My Take part 1

A while back I took Shimelle Laine’s Perfect Collection class and I blogged about how I used the cutting templates and made little version of sketches to figure out to fit the pieces together here.

 

So I thought I would try using the pieces that the cutting instructions suggest, cut out two versions and played with the pieces and made 12 single and 6 double page sketches.  I thought I’d share what pieces I used, the start point I created and the finished layout.

 

The Sketch

Something nice and easy to start with. Two big blocks of paper and a strip down the middle.

I flipped the layout around and round the corners to soften it slightly.  I used some border strips and a few embellishments to finish up the layout.

 

If you make anything with the sketch please share.

Ten on the Tenth

I completely forgot it was going to be the tenth today – I’m not sure how that happened since I can read a calendar – until Shimelle sent out a tweet and reminded me.  Since I didn’t know what to pick I just randomly went to my photo library and picked a picture which turned out to be a picture from the 90s so I picked another ten.

 

This month’s ten on the tenth, random family photos from the 90s
