Twisted Sketch challenge

This week's twist is "Distress" - any how, any way! 

I used some left over pp from the Wings level two and the stamp set that is exclusive to the Wings workshop kit from Close To My Heart.

Wings Workshop layout

I wanted to do the layout that was included in the Wings worshop flyer, but it didn't quite work with my photos. So I changed up the papers (still from the Wings level 2 pack) and grunged up the layout with some Vinyard Berry re inker in the spray pen. I made the title with my Cricut (Doodlelicious). Don't you just love Close To My Heart?

A Sketch from GYSO!

I used a sketch from the Get Your Sketch on Blog for this layout.
 I used pp from My Minds Eye and Foam Letters from Caroleens Creations
Thanks for stopping by!

WINGS layout with a sketch

 I also used the WINGS paper pack from Close to My Heart for this two page layout and again the Bohemian alphabet. I used a Sizzix die to cut my flowers, I then put some Vinyard Berry re inker in my spray pen and sprayed the flowers.
I used the sketch from the Heart to Heart Close to My Heart Challenge blog. Like Mary, I made a two page layout, with the second page rotated.

WINGS layout

I used the WINGS paper pack and stamp set from the Close to My Heart workshop kit. I also went over all the stamped images with liquid glass.
The title is stamped with the brand new alphabet Bohemian Alphabet, I love that set!

Heart to Heart challenge Feb 02, 2011

I had so much fun with this sketch from the Heart to Heart Close To My Heart challenge blog that I made two cards!

For this first card, I used the just released Sophia paper from Close to My Heart. The stamp set is only available with the Sophia workshop on the go!
I used the Pacifica paper pack for this card and the brand new Dreams Come True stamp set. I love Close To My Heart!

Get Your Sketch On!

I used a sketch from the Get Your Sketch on blog for this layout. I also used the Passages paper pack and Passages Marks all from Close to My Heart. The title was super easy. I used the Color Ready Alphabet and inked with the coordinating Close To My Heart inks.
