November Scrapbook Circle Sketch

Every month Diana puts together fabulous sketches for Scrapbook Circle and shares them on the SC blog. I always love seeing all of the different takes on the sketch.

Here's my take on the sketch for November:

I had so much fun putting this page together. All of the bits and pieces from the Home Sweet Home kit were spread all over my desk and it was easy to layer up everything onto my page.

My daughter and I go to the same salon we we both love it. (Need a salon in Chandler, AZ? Check out Flict!) I thought it would be fun to document one of our favorite places.

Fabulous Fall

This afternoon I has some fun creating with a 7 Gypsies Receipt Holder and the Scrapbook Circle November Kit.


One of my favorite things about working with kits is that it takes so much time out of the project. With everything already coordinated and sitting in front of me, it took under two hours to put this together.


My favorite part of this project is the banner. I used bakers twine for the string and laid out all of the little pennant stickers. I did keep the backing on the stickers so that they can hang free and not stick to things. To attach the stickers to a string, I set the string out on my table and used a little glossy accents on each banner sticker to glue the sting and stickers together.


I've loving the corrugated shapes from Jillibean Soup in the kit. I used Glimmer Mist on a couple and layered them up with some burlap for an embellishment.


This receipt holder is really cool because you don't have to glue the paper to the board. The clips just hold the papers in place. This makes it easy to switch out elements for different seasons or you could just change out photos each year.
