Let's Get Sketch week four!

We just back from our mini vacation to the Ohio Caverns. I took one look at Let's Get Sketch week four challenge and went that's perfect for the pictures I just took. So here is my take on this weeks sketch.

Here is the sketch that inspired this layout from Let's Get sketchy Week Four!



I am also entering this layout  into
Kristi B's " Clock or Calendar" Challenge

GCC July Sketch Challenge

I am a follower of GrandDiva's Creative Corner. Each month she and  her scrappy friends host challenges on their blogs. They have a group challenge where each person gives their own challenge. If you do all three challenges in one page, you are entered in a bonus drawing.

I have tried several times to complete the challenges and have been unsuccessful with meeting the deadline. Summer time is very very busy for me. This is the first time I have complete and enter into their contest. Hopefully, I will be able to complete many many many more challenges.

Here is my take on the Brenda's Sketch. It is greatly inspired by Rochelle Spears take on the sketch.  (Which I true love the tags and copied the tag idea)

Let's Get Sketchy Week One!! Popsicle Nut!!!

Hope everyone had a great day on this beautiful fourth of July. I know I did, because I got to scrapbook today, spent time with the family and eat lots of good food.

This Layout  is inspired by Let's Get Sketchy Week one

I had a lot of fun making this page. I looked everywhere and could not find a blue to match his popsicle, so I made my own.  I started with a piece of white mulberry paper.
( because I want some extra texture) I used two different stamp pads to get the color of blue I wanted. Next, I used an old tube of glitter glue (that the glitter was colored light blue) and I rubbed it all over the page. I am really excited about how well it matches the different textures in his popsicle.

My son is a complete popsicle nut! He eats about four a day even when there is snow on the ground.

Happy fourth of July!!

Wow !! This summer is going fast. I have been working 12 hours days, 6 days a week.. I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy 4th of July.

June--Week 1 Sketch Challenge and Red Carpet Studio

This week at Let's Get Sketchy they have a great little sketch by Jenessa Franco.
I used a pictures of my son  playing at the park last year in the early spring.



 Here my take on the sketch.   I have had this layout done but have had not time to upload it. I am also planning on entering this into Red Carpet Studio...strips "The boy in the striped pajamas"

My cousins daughter is graduation form high school next week and I found myself in need of card. I went in search of a great sketch and I found one, that spoke to me at my first stop at Practical Scrappers. Their May card Sketch by Patty. As soon, as I saw the card sketch I thought,  four small square for pictures one would be a graduation cap, her senior pic, the year and a diploma.
