Pagemaps Sketch

Loved this sketch, it was just the encouragement I needed to do this page about my husband and his first white hair! I even saved the hair, but it is impossible to see in the picture. So fun! I used the Echo Park line, I love it, with a little We R Memories in there.

Home Grown

I loved the challenge over on the American Crafts Blog. Especially the idea of making a recipe layout, which didn't actually use a food recipe. So here is my take.
The journaling reads:
Our Family Recipe 11-2010
(Takes a great amount of time and patience, but worth the effort.)
Infinity of Love
Fill to the top, when full, add more. You'll find there is always room for more.
Add:
Bucketfuls of Laughter
Armor of God (1 suit per person)
Gallons of Imagination
Fishing (I like just a pinch, but most prefer a lot more.)
Scores of Communing w/Nature
Scoops and Scoopes of Adventure
A Kiloliter of Hard Work
Tons of Support
Bushels of Compromise
Heaps of Extended Family
A Hundredweight of Crazy Chaos
Sprinkle w/Cuddle Time
15 Pets
Many Pounds of Paint, Tape, Bandaids, Tylenol, and Glue
Dash of Green Food Coloring

Stir, fold, roll, and encourage together. Never beat. Work at it always...and enjoy!

Supplies: Patterned Paper, Thickers, Rub-ons (American Crafts); Cardstock (We R Memory Keepers); Black Pen

Sketchy Thursdays

This last week, they had a great sketch, here's my take.

American Crafts

There was a fun challenge on the American Crafts blog...so I thought I'd play along.
I used the Dear Lizzy collection from American Crafts along with American Crafts alphabet chipboards. Sooo love this picture of my Louie!

Sorry about the sideways photo, I'm not computer literate and can't get it to turn! LOL

Sketchy Thursdays

I love this site, go over and check it out. http://sketchythursdays.blogspot.com/ I used their sketch for the Sept. GDT challenge. I had so much fun!

Journaling: Who knows? Maybe someday Goliath's dream of flying will come true! Grayrocks 6-10

Scraplift

Here is a page I did scraplifting a layout from the American Crafts blog. The original layout was by Moon Ko entitled A Letter to Charlie, and I just fell in love with it. The patterned paper, rubons, thickers, and pop-up stickers are all from American Crafts. The white cardstock is open stock from Hobby Lobby. It came together so fast thanks to the awesome page I lifted!
Go check out their blog!

DeLovely

Here's my first layout using the new Cosmo Cricket paper called DeLovely. I absolutely love the quote and had to use it. It goes perfect with my sweet, innocent Kessie's face! Thanks Cosmo Cricket...you always have great products!
