Party Day S-N-S

Welcome to a late revel of the bonus sketch over at Sketch - N- Scrap. You can find the sketch here.
It is our special Christmas gift to our scrappy friends.

This page is of my mom when she was about five. I love how this came out.
Most of the supplies are from American Crafts and Pebbles.
Have a Merry Chrismas everybody and I hope you find time to play along with this sketch and link it to our site here so you can be entered in a prize. 

The Christmas Look

Today I am going to share a page I did over the weekend. It is of me on Christmas Eve making a goofy look.

Seems like my Dad likes to photograph me when I am not paying attention. Hopefully, this year he will get a good photo, but I doubt it since he probably don't want to break a tradition.
My unusal item on this page is the frame. I made it out of two paper strews.
I made this for a challenge over at Club CK and day 5 of the 12 days of Christmas over at Frosted Designs.
Stop by Blue Fern Studios for their first giveaway. 

Sketch-N-Scrap Application

Yesterday, I found some time to get a couple of layouts done. One of them was of a Christmas that took place about 15 years ago. Man, I feel kind of old.'

This was done for a design team application for Sketch-N-Scrap. I use their sketch which can be found here. 

 I thread tulle through the middle button. If you buy the white or ivory tulle it is easy to change the color. Simply, color it with markers or ink.

Redecorating

I was not planing on doing a layout for Sketchy Thursday's 8.11 sketch because I couldn't figure out what to do it on. I had these two photos on my desk for a week and finally decided on just to go for it. I like how it came out. I even used by beloved and guarded paper (Dear Lizzy collection - Enchanted by American Crafts) on a page for my dog. I never though of using it before since I thought it was to girly for him. What do you think?

The photos are of Buster looking through pages of furniture my mom took out of a catalog. I think he is trying to find a new sofa.

Paper

My dog loves paper. When holidays roll by he acts a little crazy when he tries to get the wrapping paper from us. I did this page to show how much he loves it.

Property of MJ's Kraze

Supplies are fro Scenic Route, the Paper Studio, Prima, Jenni Bowlin, Simplicity, Cosmo Cricket, K& Company.
Page was based on Sketchy Thursday 8.4 sketch
My poll is still going on the side bar. Please vote on where you shop for handmade goods.

A Hidden Photo

This page I wanted to add an extra photo but I didn't want to have small pictures on this 8 x 8 page. I had some cute little file folders from the Rusty Pickle came to my rescue.
Here is what the page looks like when the folder it closed.

Here it is when it is open,

The folder allowed me to add an extra photo and journaling without making this page look overwhelming.
I love how this page came together with all the different textures. Thanks for visiting. I will see you tomorrow with another page.

The Puppy Years

I had these photos that needed to be scrapped of buster when he was a pup.There was no special reason behind these photos so I combined them together to create this cute page. It was based on Sketchy Thursday 7.28 sketch 
 Here is what I came up with.

Property of MJ's Kraze

I love the different letter stickers together and once again my two addictions show up one this page (spray inks and pom-pom trim) Thanks for stopping by. Tomorrow I will show you another layout.
I have a poll on the side. Please take a look at it and vote.

Bunny Dog

This page is of the photos I took of Buster this Easter. For the last four years he has been wearing these cute bunny ears headband I make. You can buy them here. Each year the photos look the same I like to change up the layout. on the pages. Here is what this page looks like:

This page was made using Sassy Lil' Sketch for 7.21.
 Here is last years layout: I designed the page to mimic the stripes on his Scrappy Cat dog toy. You can also get that from me here.

Poker Dog

This layout is sure to bring a smile to your face.  The costume was something I made for Buster for a pet costume photo contest. I love these photos of him. I think he has a good poker face and a great hand.
5 ACES.  I think he is a little cheater.

Property of MJ's Kraze

Supplies: cardstock, rub-ons spray ink, ribbon and metal frame.
Sketch for this page was from Sketchy Thursday. Since I made 8 x 8 pages I adapted their sketch to accommodate the size of my photos.
Thanks for stopping by.

A Layout

Here is  page I did for this week using a Frosted Design sketch #18.
Here is the sketch:

Here is my take on it.

Property of MJ's Kraze

I was able to put this page together within 30 minutes. I love the simplicity of this sketch which allowed me to add items that I would normally wouldn't use. Like that star I had that for years and I finally found a use for it that really makes a statement.
Thanks for dropping by and I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
