February guest designer... Amanda!

 

I’m Amanda and I live in Essex in the UK, where I work part-time as a bookkeeper. My main hobby is scrapbooking, but I’ve also been making cards for about 20 years. Even after all this time I much prefer working from a sketch to coming up with my own ideas for new cards. I'd like to thank Ashley and the Stick It Down team for asking me to be a guest designer this month. I was a regular team member back in 2015 and it's always lovely to be invited back.


This month's card sketch struck me as quite masculine with strong lines and angles, so I made a card for my nephew using a Papermania collection called Mr Mister. I kept the background quite subtle and added colour in the middle of the card where I swapped the central stripe on the sketch for a second banner, layering the two together with my sentiment on foam squares for a bit of dimension. I punched the 'No. 1' circle from one of the papers, attached it with more foam squares and scattered a trio of star stickers across the card to finish off.

 

You can see more of Amanda's work on her BLOG and on her INSTAGRAM.

February guest designer... Dorlene.

 

I am a wife, mother and grandmother.  I started scrapbooking in 2000 and boy, has my style changed!  Then again, so has scrapbooking in general.  I love the process from taking the photos, finding the perfect layout and then gathering all the supplies to go with it.  I love to try new techniques and products whenever possible and I love using sketches.  They are a great jumping point especially when you're short of time or having creative block.  

The diamonds on the sketch really caught my eye.  I thought the scattering would be a great way to use up some scraps - which is what I did.  I also love a multi-photo layout.  I have so many of the birth of my grandbaby so this one page sketch worked and will be a jumping point for the remaining photos.  I sure had fun figuring out where to put the diamonds across the page.  I love how the page turned out and I hope you do too.
 
You can see the process video for this page HERE.

February guest designer... Jennifer!

 

I'm Jennifer, married to Joe for 22 years and together we have two teenagers!  I started scrapbooking and card making about 13 years ago and have never looked back!  I don't always have as much time as I'd like to create, but enjoy it whenever I get the chance.  My family provides me with lots of pictures...whether they like it or not!  I'm always checking out various sketches online....old or new, I love sketches! 
 

The LO I've created for February's double sketch challenge is of my family while we vacationed in the Poconos in 2013.  A great sketch for several photos to feature my family hiking and enjoying the waterfalls.
