July Guest Designer

 Today we get to welcome our July Guest Designer----Dale Tiernan!



Hi. I’m Dale Tiernan. I live in Western Australia. I’m married with 2 adult sons. I started scrapbooking memorabilia as a child. I took up the hobby again in 2003 after I went to a Creative Memories class. I taught it with CM for some time. I’ve been on quite a few DT’s in my time but am currently on just one, Archi-Scraps. I love the art of memory-keeping. I’ve completed over 50 albums. I’m pleased to present my layout for the single-page sketch design this month.

You can catch up with more of my life on:

Dale chose to use our single-page sketch this month to create a fun wedding layout!





I hope this inspires you to join along for our sketch challenges! We love seeing what you create!

July Single Page Team

 Here is our single page team showcase...

 Huge welcome to new team member Debbi with her debut single page.


 


I decided to create a title page for my Hawaii album using this layout!
 

 
 
Jane

I used Maggie Holmes "Chasing Dreams" for this layout. I fussy cut some of the butterflies from the 6X6 paper pad to add some texture to the collage background paper. I used a vintage photo.
 

 And lastly, this cracker from Brandi
 

 And here's a reminder of the sketch...


You have until the end of the month to create based on the sketch and link up in the side bar!

July Double Page Sketch Team

Happy July! Wow can you believe we're already this far into 2023? It's gone by fast! Since it's summer I hope you've been able to enjoy the additional sunshine and that you've found some time to scrapbook on the rainy days! Here's another sketch to get your creative wheels turning!


Thanksgiving in July. ha--I took some liberties with this layout.  But
it worked out for all my holiday photos.  I have been having fun going
through "older" papers and embellishments and using up some of my stash.



I modified the sketch to incorporate a few more snorkeling photos from our trip to Hanauma Bay (on the island of Oahu). What a wonderful day to enjoy the beach and ocean life!


I tried to stick to the sketch as much as possible this month. I love sketches like this one - there is enough room for multiple photos, embellishment clusters and showcasing the beautiful patterned papers, too!



I also followed this sketch.  It worked perfectly for the pictures I had.  I used the new summer line Photoplay.


Isn't it fun to see how differently people scrapbook? Thank you double-page team for the incredible inspiration this month! Now it's up to you! Let's see what you can come up with!
