Sneak Peek Saturday . . .

Hello everyone - I've been hiding for a few days - keeping up with my emails but VERY busy :)  I'll be posting the sketch & my layout tonight.  Because of the holiday I will not be posting tomorrow - so I'm giving you everything tonight!!  Here is this week's sketch:

Sketchweek12

Here's my take - I'll warn you - I adjusted it a bit as I worked.  I usually create my layout exactly as my sketch but once I started scrapping with the paper I had chosen, I ended up mixing it up a bit.  Many of you have emailed me if it is okay to do & sure, it is!!  Remember sketches are there to inspire - certainly you can use it as it is exactly but if you want to "make it your own", go for it!!

Week12

Papers:  NEW My Mind's Eye - Just Dreamy

Buttons:  NEW My Mind's Eye - Just Dreamy

Movin' Out My MemoryWorks . . .

As some of you may know, I am an independent consultant for MemoryWorks.  I don't plug it much on my blog, I'm more of a hobbyist.  It has been a great experience because it exposed me to numerous products & also allowed me to vendor at many scrapbook events where I was able to teach classes (my real love).  I have decided to unload my whole stash today!!  I spent all last night &today creating a separate blog with a listing of all the products I have in stock.  All prices are at my cost or below.  I compared many of the items to the prices on Scrapbook.com & all the ones I checked lower :)  All the details & how you can order these awesome products are on the Movin' Out My MemoryWorks blog.  Feel free to email with orders or questions at dailyscrap@gmail.com.  HAPPY SHOPPING!!

Don't forget about the challenge this week over at A Scrappin' Friendsy from Dawn:

I often find myself getting in the rut of only using one or two photos on a layout. Sometimes it’s fun to change things up a bit!

Your challenge this week is to create a multi-photo layout. For a one-page layout, you’ll need at least 4 pictures; for a two-page spread, at least 6.

I fit 12 photos onto my two-page spread…I’d love to see someone beat that number! :)

Projects must be linked and posted by midnight (EST) on March 22th to this thread.

Next Monday, I’ll randomly choose a winner for a prize, free with your next order from ASF!

As an added bonus, I’ll send a RAK to the person with the most photos on their layout!

We currently have 13 entries in for this weeks challenge - make sure to check them out in the gallery - AWESOME job ladies!!

Have a great Thursday!!
