More May Creations

Hi Card by Sally Clark (CT)
Sally has used a 12x6 strip of DS patterned paper folded in 1/2 to create this card.  She has adhered some cream cardstock inside the card, and used a scallop punch along the front edge before folding it back onto itself.  Doing this has exposed the reverse side of the paper. Dimensional Magic has been used on the ladybug, flower centre and the glitter letters, which has toned them down a bit.
The inside of the card.
Below we have a mix of Monthly Pack layouts, Sketch layouts and a card, and Show & Tell.  The Monthly Pack layouts are a real mix of colour, and depending which way you choose to use them you can have something fun and whimsical or bright and concise.  It really is great seeing what everyone comes up with and how they use the pack.

You & Me by Zan Boyle
Sketch Challenges
Here we also have a different take on the sketch with heritage/shabby in the layout, and bright and ....dare I say it - chirpy! in the card. Both lovely in their own right.
As Time Goes By by Angie Wenke
Card by Pinky Higgs
Show & Tell
Every so often the time comes when we feel the need to scrap ourselves. During our personal journeys we each find a way to express something in our creativity to help us work through it. This first layout signposts the down times through life's journey, and is done is such a great way - the photo really doesn't do it justice.

As with most of life's journeys there is a brighter side, and Judy has done another wonderful job signposting all those wonderful moments and times.  I love the colours and the two layouts together have created a wonderful way to tell our stories in such an inspiring way through scrapping.  Well done Judy.

Great way to use the patterned paper Sally - will definitely have to try that one. Angie, you are a distressing queen - love your 2 completely different layouts. Looks like you had a right laugh on your girls night in (and a few wines maybe..?!) Lovely card Pinky - the muted image on the Kraft looks really great against that bright background!

Angie...Time Goes By with all the distressing and flowers is just a beautiful LO.
