**New Stuck On U Sketches Project Life Challenge**

The current SOUS  Project Life challenge is....PLAID

I had a mild panic attack as I thought I had NO plaid but a short flip through only one of my 6 paper holders yielded a number of plaid options.

This page is the 2nd of a two page spread for week 33 so I chose this plaid with blue as it matches the blue letters I used on the facing page.

As plaid is a strong pattern I didn't want to overwhelm the photos with it so I used a 4x6 card as the title card and then punched a few circles which I placed on a solid colour of card stock and voila!!
Another page done!

Thanks for stopping by and I'd love to see your take on the Project Life Challenge so link up your layout at Stuck On U Sketches.

Now, on to the latest Project Life Challege!!!

There are so many ways to incorporate this challenge in to your Project Life spread or if you're like me and were a bit shy on the photos for the week, it gave me a great jumping off point to fill my pockets ;)).

One of my favourite techniques is heat embossing and so I pulled out a couple of stamps and embossing ink and powder to add metallic gold to this spread. I stamped 'hello life' and 'the facts', both Ali Edwards stamps for Technique Tuesday and gold heat embossed. The 4x6 sheet with 'the facts' embossed is a snippet of one of my "to-do" lists.

Here's a close up of the 'hello life' card which is a 3x4 Project Life blank card that I stamped with embossing ink then covered with gold detailed embossing powder and heat set.

The top and bottom right pockets contain cuts from WRMK Metallic Sheets. The top left card was cut from Studio Calico "All that Glitters" paper. The numbers are Thicker Chit Chat glitter letter stickers, small alphas/numbers are Teresa Collins Basically Essential Alpha Stickers.

That's my PL layout for this challenge, I hope you'll join myself and the entire SOUS Project Life Design Team in this challenge! I'm looking forward to reading your comments and feel free to ask any questions regarding my process or layout as well!!

**New** SOUS PROJECT LIFE CHALLENGE!

Hello and thanks for stopping by for the latest Stuck On U Sketches Project Life Challenge!

I don't think I can say it enough times, this challenge is helping me keep on track with Project Life and feel like each week isn't the "same-old, same-old".

So, here is Week 17 incorporating this challenge:

{supplies: PL Midnight Core Kit, Thickers, Prima Gems, butterflies Jenni Bowlin Studio}

One of my favorite things about this spread is the yellow arrow I created out of cardstock to point out my little guy among the group of kids in the photo.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to play along with this or any other June SOUS challenge for a chance to win a prize from our fabulous June sponsor

*New***Stuck On U Sketches***Project Life Challenge

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for stopping by to see the latest and greatest Project Life challenge from SOUS

This is a fun challenge, so easy to implement into your PL, here's my week 16 spread:

I chose a 4x6 diagonal striped filler card from the Project Life Seafoam core kit. I also created my own stripes using patterned paper scraps on the upper left 4x6 filler card. The patterned paper and stickers are My Mind's Eye. My journal card is an index card I cut down to fit the pocket, so you can see how easy it is to create a pocket page layout with non-PL specific product.

Don't forget to play along with this challenge or any of the May SOUS challenges for a chance to win a prize from our May sponsor

Thanks for stopping by!

*New Project Life Challenge* Stuck On U Sketches

Happy Easter and welcome to the newest SOUS Project Life challenge...

I have quite a number of stamps but don't seem to use them much so I had lots to choose from for this challenge and really enjoyed using them on a PL spread.

supplies: Project Life Seafoam core kit, Elle's Studio 4x6 journal card, MME washi tape Kate&Co; stamps Tim Holtz and Pink Paislee; alphas Thickers AC

I have not been very motivated to pull out my camera lately, maybe it's the never ending winter so I have not had very many photos to use. That's where these challenges are so useful as I automatically have a pocket filled in my spread. The journal card I added strips of washi tape to uses a Pink Paislee stamp that says "captured moments photographs. I also added a couple of the Tim Holtz # stamps to the title card and just like that, DONE!

I just started a photography class over at Big Picture Classes so I should have more photos for future spreads ;)).

Don't forget to link us up to your project at SOUS for this challenge or any of the April challenges for a chance to a $30 certificate to their shop from this month's sponsor:
