October 1st Sketch

Good morning!

It's the first of October, who can believe the year is going so fast. We are on the downhill to Christmas and I am thinking it's nearly time to start getting organised.

This month we are introducing a new feature, a guest Creative Team Member. They will providing inspiration along with our CT on the 1st and 15th of each month. October's Guest CT member is Belinda Spencer.

My name is Belinda Spencer and I have been scrapping since 2003. I live on a farm in the Adelaide Hills with my husband Brenton, my two children; Hayley, 6 and William 5, our dog Merlin and cat Noodle as well as lots of cows, deer and chooks (not to mention the native fauna).


My main focus for scrapbooking has always been 12” x 12” layouts but more recently I have become addicted to cardmaking and artist trading cards.

My style tends to include elements of shabby chic, vintage, fussy cutting and a touch of grunge. I love to include texture, dimension and different techniques. My inspiration comes from my children, blog surfing, magazines, product and other scrappers that I admire.

I have been published in Scrapbook Creations and Scrapbooking Memories magazines. I currently teach at Charlotte’s Web in Adelaide, am a Design Team member at The Color Room, Purple Pumpkin and White With 1 and participate in as many blog challenges as I can fit in each month.

I am so thrilled to be Guest DT at Stuck?! Sketches and hope that you enjoy seeing my creations.

You can see more of my work on my blog http://happyscrapspace.blogspot.com/

And Belinda's layout from our Oct 1st sketch:

Our regular CT members have also done a fantastic job. The sketch was designed by CT member, Felicity Wilson.

Good morning

What a wonderful start we have already had to the month. So many entries and so many different takes on them.  Today we have the mid month sketch which has been designed by CT member Sarah Ward.
