Crazeee .. with Let's Get Sketchy

As I have less and less time to scrap (or so it seems), I'm finding that when I do sit down for a serious scrap session with some girlfriends, it takes a while for the creative wheels to start turning. They're kind of getting a bit creaky and maybe in need of a good service. Anyways when that's the case and I don't know where to start, I turn to sketch challenges; and when I look for a sketch challenge, I always turn to Let's Get Sketchy for inspiration. The sketches are fab and the Design Team always have the sketch covered regardless of your style or subject matter.

Crazeee
the sketch ..

I've used the Hello Lovely collection from the fabulously awesome, up and coming Australian designer Zoe at Cocoa Vanilla. This was the first time I've used Cocoa Vanilla products and I have to say, I was impressed. I loved working with the papers, the rest of the collection's elements brought everything together effortlessly, and the quality was outstanding. Add in the price and this is one seriously affordable collection to add to the monthly shopping list! I am now desperately 'hanging' for the 'Life is Beautiful' and 'Tis the Season' collections to come out. In the interim I'll just have to continue working with the tonne of product I have left over from Hello Lovely.

Meanwhile here's one or two (er hmm) close ups ..

(I love Martha Stewart's fringe scissors!)

There's probably a million (okay so maybe not quite that many) sketch challenges and sites out there on the world wide web, but one of the reasons I keep coming back to Let's Get Sketchy is because they have at least four sketches each month. I love that. If I still need inspiration I just pop on over and have another look see. There's always something fresh and interesting going on.

Anyways I could probably ramble all day, but I won't. LOL let's keep this fresh and interesting!  ;)  If you fancy having a go at a few sketches, you can find all the details for this sketch HERE. Have fun!
