Echo Park "I'd Rather Be Crafting" Create Layout

Using the Echo Park I'd Rather Be Crafting" collection and ACOT Sketch #371, I did one with photos of my newest stash which I purchased on a  Saturday with my Girlfriend to a fantastic scrapbook garage sale! I then took my old supplies to Bottom of the Bin store in Seminole, FL who swapped out my crafting items!! It felt good purging some of my old things I was not using. After taking pictures of the supplies it all went right in my organized room!! Purging Disclosure: If my friends ever want it, they can have it, so those things needed to go! Out with the old, in with the "newer". All supplies pictured are from other scrappers. I wrote on the journal card: "Buy, Sort, Use". And that is what I am doing!

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Emboss it

Photoplay Bucket List Popcorn Popping layout

 

This is this week's Becky Fleck Sketch Challenge and I used this sheet of Photoplay Paper Bucket List Popcorn Popping, front and back. The problem was that I made the squares too large and continued to cut them down until they just barely fit. My Sharpie black fine liner did the dashes and the journaling. The other Popcorn journal block came from Photoplay Paper Confetti paper. The Jolee's by You 3D sticker called Movie Night was perfect to finish this off.
