If you are following the blog hop from Sketch Support, I'm the end of the line. Which also means that you traveled from Holland (Mireille's blog) to Missouri with the click of a mouse.
I know I probably say this about almost every sketch but, I think this is one of my favorites.
I love creating layouts that have a group of elements that sweep across the page. It adds such an eye-catching detail that, in my opinion, is fun to create.
Supplies - Alphabets: Doodlebug (black); Jewels: KaiserCraft; Everything else: BasicGrey
I followed the sketch exactly with the exception of trading the stars on the sketch for butterflies on my layout.
I have a feeling that I'm going to get "the look" from my mom about this page. I'm positive she won't be too fond of the focal photo of her butt. I knew it when I was putting the page together but couldn't resist the cute photo of her and Jackson holding hands while taking a walk. It was a sweet moment that I was glad I captured with a picture, butt and all.
As far as the questions:
1. When it comes to paper crafting I am...
Addicted. I mean, seriously, I can't stop.
2. Where do you craft?
It usually a toss up between on my bed (I know! Weird, right?) or Jackson's Lightning McQueen 24 x 24" table. Why, you might ask. Because this house is incredible too small for us. My closet is half clothes, half scrapbooking supplies. Thank goodness out of all the small spaces in this house, we were fortunate enough to have big walk-in closets.
3. When I am creating, these are the things I have to have around me...
Sugar free Red Bull,
my tool caddy thing,
music,
and a mess, because that usually means I'm in the zone and getting stuff done
4. When I'm not creating you can find me...
Chillin' with my boys - watching movies, coloring, washing mud out of clothes, breaking up fights, letting Jackson drive cars on my head, reading books, cleaning the rocks out of the dryer, building tents, trying to figure out it it's a pop tart mashed into the carpet or a strawberry fruit bar, jumping on the trampoline, playing with Legos, explaining to Drew why we don't yell "poop" in public. You know, the normal mom of boys stuff.
5. When it comes to sketches I...
Well, of course, I'm going to say I love them.
I love using them and the time and headache they save me.
I love making them, I could sit in front of the computer all day designing sketches.
I love seeing others using them. It's always cool to see how different each person's interpretation is.
I hope you enjoyed the Sketch Support "Get to Know the Creative Team" blog hop! Are you tired of giveaways yet? Surely not. How about one more?

I love your layout even with the butt pictures, since I have some of those shots and you are right it is a must have butt and all! Thanks for sharing! Is it strange that being a mom to a girl I still nodded yes to over half of the things you do when not creating?
ReplyDeleteYour work just blows me away! Thank you so much for starting sketch support, and for all you do. Great layout too!! Beautiful job!!
ReplyDeleteYou layout is awesome! I love the colors and the butterflies!

Smiles from PA!
I love the sketch and the butterflies. I have the perfect pictures for this sketch and am now motivated to scrap!
ReplyDeleteMy first time ever to do a complete blog hop. I had said that I would do 3 or 4 and then come back later to do some more. But once I started I could not stop until I finished. I loved visiting every single blog and got so many neat ideas for using this bonus sketch. Hope to do a LO this morning with it. Love yours and that BG paper. It's one of my favorites and I believe I have a few sheets left. Thank you so much for this fun I've had this morning.
ReplyDeleteI love the switch to butterflies - so beautiful. I may have to borrow that idea for my layout of our trip to the local butterfly conservatory - perfect!
ReplyDeleteof course another great sketch! I love your sketches & use them constantly :)
ReplyDeleteYour sketches are Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with the sketch and, as usual, I love the sketch.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed this blog hop, all the designers do amazing and inspiring work! I am such a fan!
ReplyDeleteHow funny about the butt and all. I can totally relate to the typical "mom of a boy" stuff. I have dealt with a few of those myself. I love the mixed title and the use of butterflies across the pages.
ReplyDeleteLove your layout! Your description of when your not creating, makes me giggle!
ReplyDeleteSide note, I noticed the top of your blog changed, looks good!
Another great layout! One of my favorite pictures I have is a shot from behind of my son holding hands and walking with my parents.
ReplyDeleteAllison, I could never tire of looking at your layouts! This one - you hit out of the park, as usual! I just LOVE the butterflies!!!
ReplyDeletelove the details
ReplyDeleteAllison, I know I have said it before but I want to say it again thanks so so much for Sketch Support! It has given me so much inspiration and has elevated my scrapbooking. Your take on the sketch is beautiful and love BG too. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteLove the butterflies and the theme of the page! Sweet!!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love your "mom of boys" routine. Don't have kids but after working in childcare for years I found myself nodding and smiling. hehe...
ReplyDeleteIt is pure JOY to be on this team. Thank you Allison for being so passionate about creating fab sketches for us to use!
What a great way to end this hop! Thanks for the adventure!
ReplyDeleteI love the colours you've pulled from the jumper.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the hop. Your lo is great but the best part is the photo the reminds mr to take a different perspective. I always forget about the "walkaway". Thanks. I love sketch support and visit everyday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful day off following this blog hop... Thanks... love your sketch books and website...
ReplyDeleteYou make me smile..isn't being a mom of boys the best, most entertaining, teaching experience in life? I love it! The layout is pretty great too. Love the butterflies and pics. Thanks again for making all this possible!
ReplyDeleteLove this layout...and the feminine touches on your son's page. Still totally a boy's page though. Laughed at the similarities of your life and mine with my 7yo son. Thanks for all the inspiration!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMichelle C Bittner
Love this layout! For the record, I didn't notice your mom's rear end just that they were holding hands which I thought was adorable. Hopefully, she'll think the same.
ReplyDeleteLovin' that you used some "older" Basic Grey product on this page. It's great to raid the stash sometimes and use up what we have on hand, isn't it?
Thanks for the opportunity to win a sketch book! Love to have one!

Thanks for the fun morning!

ReplyDeleteI love your work! Keep it coming!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your layout! I'm sure your mom will, too. (Us grandmas like anything that has pictures of us and our grandkids, LOL!)

ReplyDeleteHi Allison, it's 6:04p.m. my time and I didn't get on the compter this morning so I didn't even know about the blog hop so I'm getting started now and then come back again. I love blog hops and your Q/A was fun to read about you.
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful layout, I love the butterflies, and the wonderful photos of your Mom and Jackson.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance to win!
What is it about pics of little people holding hands with their grandparents that just MELT my heart? I have oodles of them... sigh... Fantastic Allison, as always!
ReplyDeleteLove your layout and how the butterflies sweep across the page. Actually, I didn't even notice the focal-point butt until you pointed it out in your post. lol! This is the first "blog hop" I've ever particpated in all-the-way-through and I have to say it was fun getting to "know" everyone! :^)
ReplyDeleteI agree that this sketch is a keeper!! I love it and it can be used with so many themes!! Thank you for continuing to inspire me with your work. I love seeing each project and am in awe of your talent!! Interesting to know some little facts about you and your scrapping habits.
ReplyDeleteYour page is awesome! Love all the butterflies!
ReplyDeleteAll those butterflies are fabulous! And I, too, have a picture of my mom's butt while she was bent over blowing bubbles with my girls. She hates that part of the picture but agrees that it is worth it for the look on my girls' faces in the picture. This hop was one of the best parts of my week. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOoh butterflies look great with this sketch thanks for the great hop!
ReplyDeleteLove your sketches, Allison---all of them! I use them all the time and have become a huge fan of your new sketch website. Thank you, thank you for creating it! I would so love to win one of your books---for those times when I don't have the internet at my disposal!

ReplyDeleteLove your sketches and so glad you are sharing them online! Your layout is awesome and the papers and embellishments go so well with the photos!

I love that you all did this. it was really nice to see the other design team members work and how they adapted the sketch, as well as other works they have created. I would love to have one of your sketch books. Using the sketches makes me feel as if I can actually create beautiful works of art like you!

ReplyDeleteMan that was a lot of comments to scroll through! I need to head back to the beginning of the blog hop! LOVE your layout!
