Club Scrap Assembly Line Scrapbooking Challenge

Hello again and happy third Thursday of May!  The Club Scrap Artist team is back again this month and we are working with one of my favorite Club Scrap tools - the newest Assembly Line Idea Deck!  We had the option of the 9 of Clubs scrapbooking formula or the Jack of Hearts cardmaking formula.  Since I'm still woefully behind in scrapbooking my New Zealand pictures, I jumped on the fabulous formula for a two-page layout.

I loved this sketch because there are so many places to put photos - and I have a lot of them from this trip!  I especially liked the unique paperweaving embellishment on the left side of the layout.  I followed the instructions on the card and used strips of paper, but this would be a great place to use ribbon or washi tape as well.

I used this month's The Blues collection for my pages, and even though it's a monochromatic kit with a music theme, it really went well with these outdoor pictures.  It helped to bring out the blues in the water and the shadows in the mountains, but made the other colors pop in the pictures.  Just goes to show you the theme of the kit doesn't have to dictate the subject of the pages!

I kept the embellishments very simple on these pages - a few acrylic letters here, a stamped image from the Borders and Backgrounds stamp set there, and a journaling card for a space to write down all of our adventures for the day.

I love this sketch and will definitely be using this again in the future - so many possibilities and variations!  Hurry and stop by at the Club Scrap store and grab both the idea deck and this kit - you don't want to miss out on either!
