Mr. Sparks/Sketch-N-Scrap

For the second sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap for July I used pictures from the first time I met Nicholas Sparks.  He is the author of many books that have been made into movies such as The Notebook, Message in a Bottle and A Walk to Remember.  I came across these pictures and realized I had not scrapped them! I used Echo Park's For the Record Collection.  Even though the sketch called for 3 pictures I only used 2.

Our Day/Sketch-N-Scrap

Happy Fourth of July! I hope everyone is having a great day. It is pouring down raining here and will be most of the day. We are going to attempt to cook out later. Hopefully the rain will lighten up later for some fireworks. Sadly most of our day will probably be infront of the TV. Anyway, here is a layout I did using Sketch-N-Scrap's sketch for their challenge. 



                      

The supplies I used are Crate Paper, Tim Holtz, Technique Tuesday/Ali Edwards, Little Yellow Bicycle, Studio G and Bazzill. I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!

My Guys

I have entered this layout in two challenges, Sketch N Scrap and About A Boy Scrapbook Challenge. This layout is based on the sketch from Brenshevia the sketch artist at Sketch N Scrap. About A Boy's challenge was to use circles.  The pictures are of my son and husband from Father's Day.  Yes, my son is holding a sheet cake. My son, with my help, baked him a cake! My husband loved it!! I used Teresa Collins' He Said She Said collection. I inked the edges of the pattern paper using Kaisercraft's Sepia. The thickets are from Amy Tangerine called Muse. The circle stamp is Good Day by Ali Edwards. I used Tim Holtz's Barn Door Distress Ink.   I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!

                                

Luke/Button Challenge

One of Sketch-N-Scrap's Challenges was to create a layout using buttons from Kelly.  You can visit her blog here.  I have already submitted one layout and decided to enter this one to.  I wanted to do a layout about a very special boy, Luke.  He has MPS and the color for awareness day is purple. The one color I didn't have in my stash of paper except for 2 pieces. Then I remembered I had purple ink and buttons!  This is what I came up with:

Curious Sketch n Scrap #28

Hello,
I hope everyone is enjoying March.  Luckily we are enjoying some warm weather in Alabama.  I am sure it will be short lived.  Alabama does have crazy weather! I have been busy this weekend with project life, OLW, and some layouts for some challenges.  As you may know I am a fan of Sketch n Scrap and did a layout for their sketch challenge.  Here is the sketch:
