September guest designer... Phillis!


I am so excited to be the Stick it Down guest designer for the card sketch for September. I am married and have two children. I have recently retired after working in a public school for 30 years. I was a librarian for the past 22 of those years. I have been scrap booking for about 20 years. I I love how a picture comes alive when I add paper, ribbons, buttons, etc. I love research and keeping track of history (my children's history through scrapbooks). I live in upstate New York right next to the border. Montreal is an hour from my house. If I am not in my "scrapcloset" I can be found reading a book.
The sketch made me think about flowers my border punches. I dug 1 out and used it to cut around my purple paper. Then I added the flower paper strip and the flowers with the sentiment being shaped like a flower.

Introducing Lisa Griffin!

We have had some recent changes here at SID and we're happy to add Lisa to the single page team!

Hello everyone, I am honoured to be joining the SID Single Page Team. My name is Lisa, I am a mum to 4 children and life is very busy. I live in Essex with my husband who is long and suffering to my Scrapbooking addiction. I am a member of the GoGo Getaway Design Team having been on the team for  nearly 9 years. I am fortunate to design monthly whilst also teach at their Getaway's. 

I discovered scrapbooking after a trauma in my life for which it gave me such therapy. Whilst also unveiling the inner addiction I have for paper and all things pretty. I just love all things scrapping related I would say that my favourite paper range would be Crate Paper along side Pink Fresh Studio. I like to scrap in "Chapters" using the same papers or tones for events... which probably shows my OCD. For which I am unable to place pages in albums out of date order!! 

What ever you do and what ever you create, its an amazing craft that brings so many lovely people together who I feel are now the honour to be friends.  

Its an honour to join the SID Team as sketches are such an amazing tool to spark creativity allowing for  interpretation. I have such fun with my first DT page capturing the safari we went on whilst at Disney in Florida. It brings back so many memories. I can't wait to get to know you all more sharing pages as the months pass.




As you can see I have had extended the photo's included on my page with an additional strip of paper to both the top and bottom of the page. 

Thank you for looking and I can't wait to see your creativity.

September guest designer... Jessica!

 Hi all! My name is Jessica and I am so excited to be the double page guest designer this month! I love using Stick It Down Double page sketches to create monthly recaps for our family scrapbooks. I am a born and raised Minnesotan have been married to my college sweetheart for 15 years. We have 5 kids, ages 12, 10, 9. 6 and 16 months. I am also a part time child and family photographer. All of this keeps me pretty busy, so I like to get lots of photos on my pages! I also make lots of cards for family birthdays and anniversaries. You can see many of my completed projects on my blog

I really liked the clean lines of this sketch and stuck pretty close to it. I added a few more photos by splitting some of the photo spots into two. I was too lazy to do the math to figure out what size my little squares needed to be to fit perfectly, so I used some labels to fill in the gaps. I liked the leaves peaking out on the sketch, so I used some leaf stamps and various inks to create the same effect on my layout. I used some more stamps for my title since there was lots of space for it across the top. Thanks for checking out my layout!
