Today's World News - SBC 481

   Last Monday's sketch reveal for Scrapbook Challenges was sketch #481.

   Here is my take on it. I swapped the three smaller photos for on large one.

Supplies: cardstock (Die Cuts With a View and Bazzil Basics), pattern paper (Kaisercraft and Simple Stories), washi tape (7 Gypsies and Scothc Brand), stickers (Glitz Designs and American Crafts), chipboard (Studio Calico and Pink Paislee), rub-ons (Studio Calico), manual die (Echo Park Paper Co.), manual die cutter (Spellbinders) and pen (Project Life).

   The journaling for this page came from the captain that was printed on the back of the original photo that appeared in a New York paper back in 1945.  

   Since it was about a photo in a newspaper I thought this was the perfect title for this layout.

   Hope everyone had a great weekend. I sure did on National Scrapbook Day and pampering my mother on Mother's Day.

   I ended up scrapping only one photo for this birthday page of my brother from 10-ish years ago.

The Upgraded Building #1 - SBC #FBF

   For flashback Friday's sketches at Scrapbook Challenges you never know what to expect. This week's it is a double page spread. 

   Here is my take on it.

Supplies: cardstock (Bazzil Basics and American Crafts), pattern paper (KaiserCraft and American Crafts), stickers (Studio Calico and American Crafts), washi tape (Scotch Brand), masks (The Crafter's Workshop) mist (Tattered Angels), manual die (Spellbinders), electronic die cutter, cartridge and software (Cricut), modeling paste (Liqutex)manual die cutter (Spellbinders), chipboard (Um Wow Studio), and pen (Project Life).

   I didn't have much to write about so I did journaling strips on both pages. Simple and it kind out fit with the feel of this page. 

   Here is a closer look at the title work.

Rough Crowd - SBC #463

   Where did the weekend go? My to-do list barley got touched. Hope you all had a more productive week. 

Today is sketch #463 reveal for Scrapbook Challenges. 

   As you can see, I kept this page super simple.

Supplies: cardstock (The Paper Studio), pattern paper (Glitz Design and KaiserCraft), stickers (American Crafts), embossing folder (Sizzix), ink (Momenta), electronic die cutter, cartridge and software (Cricut)

   I ended up doing one of my favorite techniques on the title letter die cuts. It is called faux letterpressing. That is when you ink up an embossing folder before you place the paper in it and run it through the embossing machine. I came up for the title of this page because that was the first thing that popped in my head about this photo of my mom, grandpa, uncles and cousin
