Out Of This World!

Hello there.

It's a real miserable wet day here today, so I'm quite happy to be staying indoors.

Works out quite nicely as it's time for another Sketch Challenge over on the Two Scrapbook Friends Forum, and yours truly is here to deliver the goods.

This one's quite fun, a little quirky and has one of those 'starburst' patterns which are always popular.  There's also plenty of layers on the sketch to give you some idea's, but feel free to add as little or as much as you wish.

Here goes.........



There is the option to use one or two small photo's in place of the journalling strips, if your page requires it.

My example layout is a little wacky.....eclectic you might say........one of those where I threw on anything I could lay my hands on!

Stress free scrapbooking 101!




This photograph still makes me laugh.  It's one of those wooden cutouts where you stick your head through to pose.  Couldn't resist a little fussy cutting.

Papers here are from Authentique, and I finally dug into the Martha Stewart texture paste, which has been sitting neglected on my desk, waiting for just the right experiment!



  I LOVE this stuff.........so easy (5 minute job, really!) and looks pretty cool so expect to see more of it in the future.

This is my collection of 'ephemera' (we love that word don't we Dee?!!) or if you're English, just a posh word for 'Odds and Sods'!



I also love these new metallic silver Thickers I picked up pretty cheap from Winners ( I think I'm becoming a 'Thicker addict' if there is such a thing!).........




OK so that's it for today.

If you'd like to join in with this weeks Sketch Challenge, don't forget to upload your creations to the Gallery and Forum by November 15, in order to collect buttons toward your next gift certificate.

Have a great day despite the rain, and I'll see you soon,
Jayne.x.
