My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 138 and Catered Crop Swap - Map It...Good Times!


Hey stampin' friends...and scrappin' friends! Just popping by to share a page that I made with some NEW My Favorite Things stamps and Die-namics from the August release. I have to say I'm really missing the MFT monthly ScrapSketch...it was always great inspiration for me to get some pics scrapbooked each month...and I'm hoping they bring it back at some point...fingers crossed!  In the meantime,  I thought I could use this week's MFTWSC138 for some pics from our weekend in the Muskokas at my brother's girlfriend's, family cottage on Lake Rosseau. I am also entering this page in the Catered Crop Swap - Map it Recipe Swap (I used some map-themed pattern paper from the BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 paper pack.)




Here is the great sketch that I used and made some minor adjustments to fit my pic size.

My son, Kieran, did some tubing at the cottage and he had a great time...although he didn't have quite the "need for speed" that I thought he would...I was totally okay with that, smile! I love the expression on his face in this pic and so I wanted to really make it the focal but I have a several other tubing pics that I plan to scrapbook on smaller 6X4 and 3X4 "cards" to fit in the pockets of a divided sleeve from my We R Memory Keepers Albums Made Easy.  I used BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 papers and My Favorite Things Stamps Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Steel Grey, Steel Blue, Smooth White and Sno Cone. I also used MFT Premium Dye Ink in Fuse, Steel Blue and Kraft.

The NEW LLD Accent It - World Traveler Die-namics was perfect for my page...I used the ship icon and layered it with Circle STAX and Pierced Circle STAX Die-namics. I also used the NEW LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set. I stamped some random arrows with the arrow stamp from the LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set in Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I added a smattering of epoxy dots here and there too.

I also used the LLD Accent It - Celebrate Die-namics for the title cut from Smooth White Heavyweight Card Stock. I also used some map paper from the BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 paper pack for the Map It Recipe Swap at Catered Crop Swap to cut the fishtail flags with the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. I stamped the detour stamp from the LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set with Steel Blue Premium Dye Ink on Smooth White Heavyweight Card Stock and cut it out.

Here, I used the Catch a Wave Border Die-namics I wrapped some Hemp cord around and a cute anchor from the LLD Accent It - World Traveler Die-namics. I also used the smallest die from the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics, cut more map paper and stamped the date with the LLD Document It - Days and Date Stamp set.


Well, thanks SO much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my 12X12 page for the My Favorite Things Stamps - MFTWSC138 sketch challenge and the Catered Crop - Map It Recipe Swap.
