My first doodled layout!

Hello lovely blog friends!

Thank you for dropping by:-) Today I want to share with you the final layout of my puppy I created with the doodled accent I shared with you in one of my older posts. As you can see I added another doodle of vines on the right side of my layout as well to balance it out.

I did most of the colouring with my trusty Copics, and some with my Faber Castell markers. (this butterfly stamp is my favorite Hero arts butterfly wood block stamp, I doodled around it:-) )

I wanted my layout to have lots of colour to make it look playful and suitable to portray a puppy. I also used lots of fun accents as well as paint splatters here and there.

I love these sunny foam alpha stickers, they are by Pink Paislee and come in several colours. Needless to say, the yellow ones have been used the most:-) I love combining several different alphas to create a easy going layout.

The stamped 'pet statistics' journal spot is from a Unity stamps mini stamp. I picked it specially for this layout:-) I also used a piece of a punched out picket fence I had leftover from a previous project. Love how it adds a homely feel... ( the chipboard house too was used for the same reason)

This cute vintage button is something I picked up at Made with Love Singapore. I love shopping there.. I feel so happy spending hours and hours browsing through the aisles! he he

The transparency too is something I picked up in Singapore from a discount bin:-)

As you can see the layout is full of little bits and pieces. I tend to save up even the tiniest scraps of patterned paper, so this is a good way to utilise them:-)

Supplies:

Patterned paper- Sassafras, Basic Grey

Stamps- Hero arts, Unity stamps

Brads- Sassafras

Chipboard- Maya Road

Alphas- Cosmo Cricket, Pink Paislee, Little yellow bicycle

Glimmer mist

Martha Stewart butterfly punch

Have a great day!

Our little sprout!!

OK, first of all let me tell you I don't do scrapbook layouts, the last one i did was four months ago:-) But i have been having these very cute pictures of my oldest retriever Martini on my desk for soooo long, that when i saw the challenge at 'Sketchy Thursdays' I just had to do one!

The winner gets a super cute Lawn Fawn stamp set, I have been eyeing this for a couple of weeks now, so i am going to try my luck at winning it:-)

Challenges make scrap booking fun 'cos you need to think about what you plan to do and design around the sketch that's presented.

As you can see, i prefer a very clean layout where the pictures speak more than the embellishments itself :-) The blue patterned paper is Amy Butler, and i also used a Fiscars border punch to make it interesting, I love the brackets!! I got a super deal for it at Etsy, if anyone wants details of the shop drop me a mail and i would gladly share.

Happy stamping till next time!
