Card Sketch


So I'm not much of a card maker, but Crate Paper had a beautiful sketch challenge up so I thought I'd give it a try. My sister-in-law just had a baby boy and so I thought the Orbit line would be perfect. I also found this great quote that went along perfectly. It was actually really fun!

Outdoor Girl


I was so excited to use this sketch. I had these hysterical pictures of Louie grumping in the middle of the trail. She didn't want to go any further. Then she forced a smile and told me to tell Daddy that she was an outdoor girl! I got the sketch from Sketchy Thursdays...go check out their blog!

Sketchy Challenge


I got some of the new October Afternoon papers. I usually don't buy the stickers or anything, too expensive, but I splurged this time. I'm so glad I did. I used a ton of them. It was so fun to have everything matching and not have to dig around, this page came together way fast! I got the sketch from Sketchy Thursdays...love their blog!

Seasons


I can't get over Crate Papers Seasons Collection. I just love it, I use it all the time. So I used it again for this layout, added a few Kaiser Craft Dots an orange piece of paper from We R Memory Keepers and black cardstock and there you have it. The journaling reads:
Okay, maybe we're not really twins, but one way that George and I are exactly alike...we're so stinkin' cute!!! Oh yeah! (P.S. Kessie said I looked like a psycho in this picture! LOL!)

Cosmo Sketch


Cosmo Cricket had a sketch challenge, so of course, I had to participate. I found this photo of my Louie and Uncle Derek and thought it would be a great chance to scrap it. I haven't scrapped 8.5 x 11 for a long time and it was fun to mix things up a bit as well as use several different of Cosmo Cricket's collection papers. They have a great blog so go on over and visit!
