INSPIRED BY Scrap The Girls

You know how sometimes you come across something and you know straight away that you just need to read it or make it? Yep that feeling is what is inspires this new series on here. I'm not sure how often they will be or whether they will all be scrapbook layouts or not but I am very excited to see where this series goes. So without further ado I will show you whats inspiring me this week.

This week I decided to go check out the Scrap the Girls blog. I have followed them on Facebook for a while and I saw a post and something made me click through this time.  I looked through a few pages on their blog and just knew that I needed to scrap. So here goes nothing.

This first one is inspired by the February sketch post and when I came across Michelle's take on the sketch I j use knew that I wanted to copy. I have been saving this collection from last year and I really need to start using it. I had a quick look through photos on my computer and found these ones from May 2014 that weren't scrapbooked AND that I didn't mind turning black and white AND that I had multiple ones that I wanted to include. I really really love how this layout turned out and I am very thankful I had pre fussy cut those little flowers from the 6x6 paper pad and that I got a chance to use my big date stamp from Studio Calico.

The next one that completely stuck out to me and I just knew I had to do asap was the November sketch challenge. This time however it was the actual sketch that inspired and not one of the creative members take on it.

I really liked that it included multiple photos again and knew it was perfect for an adventure we had in January this year. I had multiple photos I wanted to include but none that were amazing or that i wanted to be large. I really like that I got to use up some of my untouched Felicity Jane kit from October last year and that this was the first layout I have made about 2017. Also was happy that I got to include some stamping which is something I often struggle to add to my layouts even though I have lots and lots of stamp sets.
