Halloween/Spring with a Sketch YouTube Hop

Wow it is time for our October Hop already, this year has gone so fast.
I am super excited about this Hop as I am participating in it.

We have a Sketch to work with for this hop and the ladies have done a awesome job interpreting it in a variety of ways.

Here is the Hop List.

Here is the Playlist I have created so you can easily find all the videos.




In addition to my October Daily Journal this year I am doing a October Daily Mini inside a Personal sized Filofax Domino in Aqua as Aqua/Teal are part of our Halloween as we participate in The Teal Pumpkin Project, so working in this size made this sketch challenging for me.

Head to my video to see my process for making the sketch work in a 41/4 x 7 inch format.

Grab 6 and Craft with Animals YouTube Hop

We have another YouTube Hop for you, this one is about limiting your supplies and being inspired by animals.  Personally I find a lot of supplies can overwhelm me and impede creativity so sometimes I will pick just a few things that work together and give myself a theme and play until I have something I love so I thought that might be a fun hop theme to hopefully help other crafters create.

I am not participating in this hop as technical issues meant I could not do voice overs for the last week or so, but I do have the hop list for you.

Awareness Ribbon YouTube Hop

When working out themes for this year we wanted to have some themes we haven't done before and we had some great ideas suggested.  One that I was really passionate about was a project about Awareness so we decided to go with Using a Ribbon on your project and that the projects would be about raising Awareness about something important to the person creating the project for the hop.  So we have a wide variety of projects for you about various things that are important to Hop members.
It is interesting to see how everyone took this challenging themed and created such beautiful projects.






For this Hop we have a wonderful Sponsor who has donated a awesome prize pack so make sure you follow all the steps to enter the draw for your chance to win a fantastic bundle of goodies from Ruby Rock-It.

Check out all the gorgeous projects in this hop.

Each member of the hop chose what was important to them to raise awareness and how they would interpret that into their art.

Here is the hop order so you can find the videos you would like.

For my project I decided to make a Banner for the Endo High Tea I was hosting on March 30th.  You can find a blog post about my High Tea here.

I started by gathering everything yellow I could easily get to on my desk so as to make playing and creating easier.  As I progressed I grabbed out some gorgeous Crafter's Choice bling and a pack of Bella! wedding themed wood veneer.

Items Used
Ruby Rock-It Faded Empire Chipboard alphas
Bella Wedding wood veneer
Crafter's Choice Bling
Scrapping Fun Kits September 2018 Kit.
Twine from Scrapping Fun Kits January 2018 Kit
Tissue paper from Scrapping Fun Kits TN promo kit
Dear Lizzy Happy Place 6x6 paper pad
Pink Paislee Summer Lights 6x6 paper pad
Doodlebug Designs Petite Prints 6x6 paper pad
Helmar Acid Free Glue
Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive
Mini Distress Ink Mustard Seed
Ribbons from Lincraft
Banner from Officeworks

I initially intended to just create with without letters so that it could be reused for other events like Easter or my daughter's Birthday but once I had my 4 pennants decorated I felt they needed the letters so they would look finished so I grabbed out some gorgeous Ruby Rock-It Acid Free Chipboard gold alphas and spelt out ENDO on my pennants.

I love how my banner turned out, it looked so cute on the table at my Endo High Tea.
