Blog Hop - NO RULZ

It's summer and it's hot, so let's break it up a bit! The Love To Scrap! Challenge Blog Design Team is happy to bring you our "No Rulz!" Blog Hop! We're being sponsored by River City Rubber Works! Come hop with us for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate!



As you hop, leave comments! The more comments you leave, the more chances you have to win!

All of the LTSCB designers are creating Anything Goes inspiration projects for our blog hop. Everyone participating in the blog hop is invited to link up a 'No Rulz' project for extra entry/entries into the drawing! No rules for this challenge!


I used River City Rubber Works image Gas Station.  They have both rubber and digital in this image.  
For this challenge I decided to do an altered sketchbook.  Even though the book was a hardcover, I still covered it with designer paper.  Of course it wouldn't be manly without some metal...lots of metal pieces.  The clip on top is hanging by twine and connected underneath dp on the inside of the cover.  I thought it would be better not to fix it on the front, but to dangle.  I colored the image using my Prismacolor pencils.  



Here is the line-up:

We hope you are enjoying the hop and if you get lost along the way - or if you landed here in the middle of the hop and want to join in the fun - head over to the Love To Scrap!Challenge Blog to read all the details and start from the beginning!

Happy Hopping!

I would like to enter in the following challenges:



stamp used: River City Rubber Works - Gas Station
paper used: Tim Holtz - Destinations
embellishments: 3 Girl Jam Ribbon rustic country, Ribbon Carousal twine, the Paper Studio clock metal charm & mustache brads, Tim Holtz hinge clips, Bead Landing found objects (gears)
