sweet memory file pt 2 ~ heidi swapp memory file sketch

Happy Friday to you all...

If you are looking for a weekend project, I think this sketch could be a great start.
The Media Team over at Heidi Swapp has been playing with Memory File Sketches.
Today is the first in 1 Sketch 3 Ways v.2.

My take on this challenge started with this on Monday's post.
Today I have a post over at HeidiSwapp.com showing how I took this sketch, and really made it work for the particular orientation and need of this album.
Love how versatile sketches can be.

This project is a few of my favorite things that I explain further over at Heidi's today...

like my new favorite Clear Pop Banners...

Combining Sugar Chic Memory Files...

...with new Color Pop Memory Files.

And the new Serendipity Mini Fotostack book...

with lots of Definition stickers and elements and extra pages peeking out.

Love adding these little details.

Added just a touch of Color Shine Tinsel to the Color Pop Memory File...

But what is really a lot of fun...the new Clear Pop Bare Pockets...love them!

now go and take a look at the other post...
and then here is to a creative weekend.

sweet memory file pt. 1

So happy to get some time to work on photos from CHA.
Taking a cue from my team mate, Jen, and working on it as I can...
as well as binding when it is all done so as to allow for the freedom for it to evolve as it will.

NOT to mention...
a chance to play with the Clear Pop Banners, Tags, some Color Pop Labels + Serendipity papers.

This album will end up being a version of a bound mini file album.
Two sizes of memory files...
lots of embellishments poking out.
Interactive pieces here and there...
like this interactive piece to the very front with pattern paper from the Serendipity line plus a Clear Pop tag stapled inside. When those hit stores, I highly suggest you grab when you see...have a feeling they will be going very fast. Basically this is a card made from pattern paper, and then adhered to the very front memory file (that I cut in half). Before adding to the cover the Clear Tag was stapled in place.

Went into So. Cal a day early to spend it with my girlfriend in Orange County. The first part of my album celebrates that day together eating a a favorite locale plus shopping a little. We always do the same when I am able to come in, but it is always such a wonderful time and deserves a place with the rest of these words + photos.

Made a little flip book for some extra photos simply by adding them to the file with washi tape.

The left side shows off some of the new Serendipity which I added to the back of the memory file from the front. This page shows off that first evening meeting the team and Heidi and Rebecca from Pink Paislee. It was such a great, great, never to forget time. What? a chance to create an album with some of the most amazing creatives not to mention have Heidi lead it like right there in front of you. DREAM. COME. TRUE.

And on the right I add in a regular Sugar Chic Memory File that I turned inside out so the turquoise side could complement the pattern from the other page. One of a few (just a few) team photos we took that weekend. Lots of layering plus a Clear Pop Tab over there on the very right that says 'best ever'. (love those so much!)

That is all I shall share today...this is part 1 of this album. Part 2 will be posted on Friday plus a sketch for a memory file that I will incorporate in the next part of this album to be.

Hope you will stop by then.

In the mean time...
