So.....this one was way hard for me....I've never done a double page before they kind of intimidate me just a bit and this sketch challenge for a double layout from
swat (scrap warriors advanced training) me totally had me freaked...LOL my daughter thought it was so funny... anyway I started by finding a bunch of pictures...I think this is the most I've ever used on one project...I decided on one of Samantha's Birthday parties...haha totally got her there she hates when I scrap her younger pictures..hehe
Here is what I came up with...
Here is the sketch....
I love the trim on the yellow paper...too bad you can't see it sparkle in the picture :(
I dug thru my stash and found all these little embellishment stickers...I thought they were cute and seemed to fit so nice with the layout.
I replaced the big circle from the sketch with the big cake....
I am also linking up with
The memory Nest
thank you so much for coming to take a peek......
Well for your first time making a two-pager you sure did a great job. I do lots of doubles and I still find them intimidating...the trick for me is sketches =) Thanks for stepping out of your comfort zone to play along with us at SWAT!
ReplyDeleteawesome job! I hate two pagers personally. Although I usually end up with coordinating complimentary pages I prefer to work with two separate sketches not ones that have overlap or have to be worked on at the same time. I simply don't have that much work space to layout 2 together.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Buffy...how exciting to try something new!! It turned out soooo great!
ReplyDeleteLoveeeeeeeeee this!! LOVING the photos and the candles!!!
ReplyDeleteBuffy - Love you take on the sketch. The cake is my fave. What a neat way to replace the circle in the sketch. Thanks for sharing. I love seeing your work.

Buffy!! You did a great job on your first double pager! I've been doing them for years, and still feel that way! Lol! I especially like them for birthdays/holidays because you can get so many photos done at one time. You totally rocked this! Thanks again for joining us at SWAT!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fabulous 2-pager, Buffy!! I'd have never known it was your first. Great take on the sketch, too!! ~ Blessings
ReplyDeleteGreat double-pager! I struggle with them but yours came out awesome!
ReplyDeleteAwesome Buffy! You did a great job on the two pager!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat Job on the two pager Buffy! Thank you so much for playing along with us at S.W.A.T!
ReplyDeleteI think you need to do more double pagers Buffy!! This is awesome! Love that giant cake and the trim along the bottom of the yellow paper. Adding trim in the same colour as the paper is a great way to add texture!! Well done Buffy. Thanks for playing with us at SWAT this week!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute- I love the birthday cake layer in the background :) Thanks for joining us over at SWAT! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, 2 pagers are soooo hard! But you rocked it! I love your perfect birthday colors!
ReplyDeleteI would never be able to guess this was your first two page. Awesome job!
