CPS, Pencil Lines & Basic Grey

I've been productive today & would do more, but Spring Break is over & I need to get back into some sort of sleep routine. No more staying up until 1:00 & sleeping in until 9:00:)

This first card is from CPS's current sketch, which is hybrid. Betcha didn't know I dabbled............did you? Yep, I have a simple HP program that allows me to do some digi stuff & from time-to-time, I'll dabble. Charity Hassel, a designer for CPS came up w/the hybrid idea & when I saw her card, I immediately realized........I have that same kit by Jessica Sprague. So, when I opened my software program, it happened to be the kit uploaded, so I worked with it. I realize it doesn't look too much like the sketch, but the ribbon is like the arrow & I only used 2 flowers, instead of 3. The Bazzill Kraft cardstock, buttons & Heidi Swapp chipboard letters are my "non-digi" embellies.....thus making it hybrid. I'm happy with it.

This card is CPS 58. I had a different idea originally, but LOVE how this turned out. My "pot" is a label holder I cut in half.

This layout is of pictures I just took Saturday night. Yes, my almost 8-year-old does not know how to ride a bike. But, in her defense, she's a dancer and a dancer can't risk falling & breaking a limb! Okay.................so that might not be true, but it sure sounds good. This is based off of Pencil Lines sketch 77. This worked out perfectly as I took a ton of pictures & picking 5 wasn't hard. I think I have all the new Sassafrass papers too, so I'm not finished with them:)

This layout was based off the sketch in the current Basic Grey newsletter. I didn't realize when I took the picture, I took it crooked. I used several techniques on this, such as painting the edges of my Heidi Swapp ghost heart, using my Fiskar border punch & paper tearing. I only mention this because I don't think I normally do this many on one layout.........I'm a pretty simple scrapper.

So, that's all I have for one-day...............now back to my regularly scheduled life!!
