December Guest Designer --- Brandi!

Hi! I’m Brandi! I am a stay-at-home mama to 2 little boys, my oldest turns 3 this month and the baby is 1! I have been scrapbooking since I was practically a baby myself, around 10 years old, when my aunt introduced me to 8.5x11 albums as a place to store all of my Girl Scouting memories. My style has changed a lot over the years and I only did double page layouts for years, but very recently have found a love for single pages. My current favorite part of the process is selecting papers & a color scheme for my photos and using a sketch to make the magic happen. I found Stick it Down just 2 months ago and am loving the sketches so far! 

For this months sketch, I was inspired by the mixed media background and chose to use a pre-made piece from Vicki Boutin. I modified the large outline circles to be on-theme with my photos & used my Cricut to create the sunshine & ocean waves. Thanks for the opportunity to be a guest designer this month!




Thanks so much Brandi for your fun sketch! 
We hope you feel inspired to play along this month too! Join us for either our double page, single page or card challenge for your chance to win and become our next Guest Designer!

November guest designer... Laurie!

 

I'm a Midwest girl living on the East Coast, and I've been scrapbooking since high school. There's something so satisfying about taking pictures and accenting them with paper, sequins, stickers, and more! I love sharing my creations on my blog and YouTube channel.

For this layout, I was inspired by the hearts on the original sketch. I wanted to do something mixed media-ish on my own layout, and because the photo I was using had bubbles in it, I sprayed bubble wrap with misting spray and pressed it against the white cardstock. I liked how the patterned paper pieces were cut into banners, but I decided to just tear the bottoms of the paper. This ended up being a great way to use up items from my stash, including collections that didn't necessarily go together. But that's my favorite way to create - mix and match!

 

There is a process video for this layout HERE.

November guest designer... Donna!

 Hello all, My name is Donna Coughlin and I live outside of Reading, PA with my husband and my youngest son who is going to college right now, so we are almost empty nesters! I have four other children and 11 grandchildren, so I always have plenty to scrap. I have been scrapbooking since 2012 after a Disney vacation. Which as you can tell is my favorite thing to scrap. I have been a various design teams throughout the years, but have stopped that for the time being because I want to just relax and scrap at my leisure.

For the sketch I decided to move the banner over to the other page, because of the number and size of pictures I used and it looked better to me. I always save park maps, receipts, etc from our trip ( I don't know why!), so I added a real simple pocket by carefully gluing around the sides and bottom of the paper I added on the left hand side. The journaling card had glitter on it, so to bling up the layout a little more I added glitter glue to the title and the word Boo on the banner. The wood zig zag pieces I used purple glitter paint.

 

You can catch Donna on her blog, Villians,

October guest designer... Phillis!

 

Hi, My name is Phillis Walrath.  I am a retired school librarian and I live in upstate NY, right next to the Canadian border, with my husband of 26 years and my 23 year old daughter.  I have a married son who is 25 years old and has a Rottweiler.  I began scrapbooking about 20 years ago so I could create books for my kids.  I love putting paper together with embellishments to create a memory.  I began making cards when my friend started selling Stampin' Up.  I love how special each card was.  I now make all my cards for all occasions.  I have not sent out a store bought card in many years.

 

I was inspired by the 1 circle on the sketch.  I used  many rectangles for the base of my card.  I added the shiny ribbon and the 1 sequin to add some glam.  I try to keep my cards pretty flat so I can easily mail them.

You can see Phillis on her BLOG and  FACEBOOK. She also has a gallery HERE and HERE.
