A Fun UYSC Layout to share

I did the layout for a UseYourStashChallenge (UYSC) over at Groovie Scraps Cafe, using a sketch from PencilLines #109 which featured one of my TSM gals, Sasha, as their guest DT.

I'm starting to be really reliant on using sketches for my layouts. They are really convenient!!

LOL.

Ok, the Groovie Cafe's November's 1st UYSC challenge is that you gotta use 11 pattern papers in the layout and 4 other embellishments.

I used my Autumn Leaves Cuteworld Boy Paper with some of my existing October Afternoon papers for this challenge. Found the perfect pictures to scrap on.

Here it goes:

Check out the cute Owl below! Stamped using my October Afternoon Clear Stamps. And of course my own stash of Riff Raff Curly Tree that came in on Tuesday! Used 3-D pop-up foam dots to prop the tree and the owl up! =)

Journalling on the Tim Holtz Journaling Tickets. Hold your breath! It can be flipped to reveal the other side for more journalling!

Coolz huh?

=============================================

Thanks to all of you for leaving your awesome comments on what you think the layout I did for The Story Matters "talks" to you. I'm really grateful for the interaction and I get to blog-hop a little and leave some love back on your blogs.

I'll be drawing the blessed random winner on 13th Nov yah?

Just to share a LO I did for a Use-Your-Stash challenge in the Groovie Scraps Cafe for the month of July. It's really well-thought of by Felicia. It requires a minimum of at least 10 chipboard elements, and the more the merrier. Without the following: Other patterned papers, other embellishments. Only cardstock is permitted.

What I used mainly was my Maya Road Chipboard alphas and arrows. I realized that I still have a near boxful of arrow chipboards left!

Anyway, here my take:

(Click on picture for clearer view)

Oh yah, I really didn't use any patterned paper, I doodled on the cardstock so that it looked like somesort of patterned paper.

It's a considerably "simple" LO but I had fun creating it. The painting of the chipboards was the slightly time consuming part as well as the doodling on the CS. Let me know if you like it yah?

TFL!

Did this LO within 1 hour. One of the fastest LO ever. It's done for a "Use-up-Your-Stash" Challenge for the month of May at the Groovie Scraps Cafe, where by you have to use ONLY at least 30 rub-ons or stickers for the LO. Ok, I didn't read instructions properly, ended up using some buttons to "complete" the look.

Here goes:

TFL!
