Sketch N Scrap card sketch #220

Happy Monday!!  It's a new week and what a great way to kick off a new week than with a new card sketch!  June is flying by and it's time for the last sketch of the month at Sketch N Scrap!!  Today sketch artist Lori is debuting her FIRST ever card sketch!  How fun!

Here is Lori's amazing card sketch:

Here is the card I created with this fun sketch:

Supplies Used: Cardstock: Stampin' Up Crumb Cake & Early Espresso; embossing folder: Sizzix; Patterned Paper: Simple Stories So Rad; die: Stampin' Up stitched circle; sticker: Echo Park Let's Go Camping; Ink: Stampin' Up Early Espresso; Stamp: Stampin' Up Simply Sketched.

This card was SUPER easy to make!  In fact, I need a bunch more masculine birthday cards so I plan to use this same sketch and these same stickers/papers to create a few more cards!!  I hope you will join in the fun this month and play along with us at Sketch N Scrap!! Happy creating!

TN Time with Lisa & Lori ~ June edition!!

Happy June!!  Wow, this month is flying by!  As you may have noticed this post is a bit late this month and that is because I was out of town last weekend and unable to get my post up before I left!  But better late than never right??!!  So let's get the party started for another edition of our TN Time with Lisa & Lori challenge! 

HERE IS HOW OUR CHALLENGE WORKS: 

This is a monthly challenge that launches on the 10th of each month  You will have until the 9th at midnight CST to link up your entries. If you complete my sketch challenge link your TN, bullet journal or planner spread below. If you combined my challenge with Lori's challenge link up your spread here on my blog AND on Lori's Blog (My Happy Life). This is a "just for fun" challenge with no prize, but isn't the real prize just documenting your memories and getting more pages done in 2022???!!!! 

Now for my challenge!! Here is this month's sketch:

Now for Lori's Challenge (June 18th-July 9th):

Here is my layout using both the sketch & Lori's challenge:

I just had to document this hilarious story from my glamping retreat at The Lone Star Glamp Inn back in April!  This pocket was the perfect spot to document this funny story of the mysterious case of the missing campers!  My fellow campers Merry & Jodi pictured with me here and I actually missed the first group photo!  We were in their tepee and didn't hear the announcement to go outside for the picture!!  So when we came out of their tepee a few minutes later everyone was gone!!  So we went outside and walked around the corner only to find out that they had already taken the photo!!  Luckily they hadn't put everything up yet so we were able to get in the photo on the second take!  The funny part is that everyone was suppose to make sure their roomie was there and that no one was missing....but my roomie just assumed I was there somewhere in the crowd...but thankfully we didn't have to set the photo up again as we weren't THAT late lol!!  But it got a lot of laughs from everyone and will be a great camp story to tell for years to come...however, our fearless leader Paula G didn't think it was so funny.  I think she will agree that getting a group photo is somewhat like herding cats!!!

Now for some close ups:

Here is a close up of the label I used for Lori's challenge!  This label and the ephemera are from the Let's Get Crafty line by Kelly Bangs for Simple Stories!!  I thought it was only fitting to use this line since Kelly was at the retreat!! 

I used a Project Life Journal card to document my story instead of a tag as it gave me more room and was pre-made, which is a plus! 

Supplies Used:  Patterned Paper: Simple Stories Let's Get Crafty & My Mind's Eye Fine & Dandy (Scrap for banner on pocket); ephemera: Simple Stories Let's Get Crafty; enamel dots: Pebbles; letter stickers: Bella Blvd (pink) & Jillibean Soup (blue); Project Life card- unknown source.

Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2022 ~ June edition!!

Happy June!  I absolutely can't believe it is June already, even though as hot as it is here in Texas it sure feels like Summer already!!  It's a new month so that means it's time for a new edition of The Great Stash Bash Adventure with Lisa & Lori!! So without further adieu let's get the party started with the June edition of Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2022!! 

For those who are new to the challenge here is how it works:

On the 1st of each month we will post a challenge prompt and the stash kit we have created using that prompt. During the month we will try to use as much of our stash kits as possible on different projects. Then, on the last day of the month, we will do a recap post showing what stash we were able to bash!

This will be a just-for-fun challenge so there is no monthly prize - but isn't the real prize using up our stash?  We hope you will join us in our quest to bash some stash in 2022. If you accept the challenge to play along - link up on either my blog or Lori's Blog (or both if you choose) so that we can see who is joining us each month!

Now for our June Challenge:

Here are the rules for 2022:

Each month we will create a kit with 10 or more papers (dig into your stash for new or old papers it's up to  you!), 5-7 scrap papers (let's keep those scrap piles under control!), 3-4 embellishments (new or old- you decide), and a stash bash item!  This month's stash bash item is tags!!

1. Follow the challenge prompt to create a kit to work with throughout the month. You may use other items, but try to concentrate on using your kit. 

2. Create new, not previously posted projects using your stash kit.

3. If you have a blog - please include the challenge graphic & a link to our challenge in your posts. 

4. You may link to social media if you don't have a blog. If you share on Instagram, please make sure to use - #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2022

Since this is a just for fun challenge the rules are not set in stone BUT we have them to help you focus on what really matters using your stash!  We also hope you will help spread the word of our fun challenge so others may join in!!  You know you have at least one friend who needs to use her stash!! 

This month I have created 2 fun kits!

My 1st June kit:

For the rest of the year I am going to concentrate on using up some of my CTMH papers. I just love them but I have hoarded them long enough lol!  These papers are from the Sweet Girl and Feels Like Home lines from CTMH.
