Sunday Sketch with Anna

Hi dear CTK friends, Anna here today, sharing my project with you, based on this fun sketch!
Actually this one is the last but absolutely not the least Sketch Challenge for this month, tomorrow we will enter October. Time flies!

I hope you can play along as well and I would love to see your take on this sketch. To enter the challenge, post your project in the CTK Fan Page at Facebook with today's date (September 30) in the title.

I can't wait to see where this sketch will take your creativity.

Take a minute or two and just embrace this gorgeous sketch! I'm blown away! So I decided to keep my design pretty much the same as the sketch except that I adapted it to a 12"x12" layout.

Even if the lovely October kits are soon coming up we are still focusing on the beautiful September Heartbreaker kits today, yay!

I opted for the beautiful papers from the Pattern Paper Play kit and some lovely bits and pieces from the Pocket Life kit , the Scrapbook kit and the Embellishment kit. Oh! and I've also used a pair of the stamps from the Travelers Notebook Mom Duty set and the Together stamp set. Beneath my layers of papers there's a lovely piece of one of the CTK cut files designed by our own lovely Nathalie DeSousa, I love the delicate and light touch it provides my page.

These tranclucent Willow Lane stickers by Maggie Holmes works just perfect to act as my journaling.

Don't you just love all these Shine On ephmeras by Amy Tangerine, so crazy cute!

And there's no secret that I'm a sucker for labels, so these goodies have a special place in my heart, so easy to apply on any project! I love that Trina always incorporate a few ,or severals to be honest, of them in the kits. 

Now it's your turn - and I can't wait to see how you interpret this weeks Sunday Sketch. Remember to share them with us in the CTK Facebeook Fan Page!

Take care! Anna xo

Sunday Sketch with Amanda Baldwin

Happy Sunday Lovelies!

Amanda here with today's super fun Sunday Sketch!
Here's what it looks like....

Oooh! How AWESOME is this sketch?!! 

I loved it as soon as I saw it, & couldn't wait to play along with this design! 

For today's sketch I wanted to showcase how fantastic the September "Good Stuff" Add-On Kit is - 

here's what I came up with.....

"En Pointe" 

LOVE!!! 

Such a special moment documenting my daughter's first pair of pointe shoes! Milestone moment for every young danseur & ballerina! 

And how gorgeous is this Add-On Kit?! Everything you see (apart from my cardstock base) is from this kit! Now that's cool! 

Here's a closer look....

As it's a ballet page, I just had to draw on all the pink elements from the Good Stuff Kit. The Vicki Boutin Die Cut Ephemera pieces, combined with the MME Girl Meets Glam Decorative Brads, were the perfect option for all the ticket / tag elements in the sketch! They really pop against the otherwise black & white page!  Pretty! 

For the pattern paper trim, I use the subtle polka dot pattern paper from the Maggie Homes: Willow Lane 6" x 8" Paper Pad. This paper also inspires the use of the polka dot alpha Thicker, as well as the coordinating brad over my photo. Sweet!

Carefully considered embellishments to adorn my page!

For finishing touches, I use the MME Girl Meets Glam Enamel Dots as an alternative to the paint splatter on the sketch. Love how this looks! You can never have too many enamel dots, right?!

And there you have it! 

My take on today's awesome Sunday Sketch!

Happy Arty Days,
