RIP

  My yahoo group had a challenge to use memorabilia on a layout this month...It was the perfect time to honor my brother.
  I used April week 1 sketch at Let's Get Sketchy

Here is my layout.

Thank you for visiting. I hope your day is wonderful.

Our Sweet Miracle

 These pictures were taken on Zades one month birthday....his actual due date. He is doing so well and I simply can not imagine life without him. We are so very blessed.
   This layout is for the Scrappy Friends Challenge.I have looked here several times but this is my first time actually doing the challenges!  I combined all three challenges in the one layout.
The sketch.....

 

The tic tac toe challenge .....

The word challenge......

My take.....

This is an old stack by Martha Stewart called playful blue.... I really love the colors in the papers and am sad to say it is almost all gone......  The gorgeous yellow ribbon is from May Arts, the twine is stampin up. Also added a small blue vellum triangle from studio calico. I used the word adventure in the pooh quote.
   Now I am off to try and figure out how to enter the challenges...lol.
Thank you for visiting.
I hope your day is overflowing with blessings.

Yet Another

 Checked emails and a friend had used  sketch # 74 from My Scraps and More Sketches for a travel layout. Immediately wanted to do the same.... yep copy cat..... But when I checked deadline to enter challenge was in 12 hours..... nope still have not done what I was suppose to do today.... I am going for the procrastinators award........
  The sketch....

And here is my quick take on it..... This was from a summer road trip with Amanda. Love this picture of her.

Thanks again for visiting and now maybe I can push myself to get something done!
Have a truly wonderful day!

Fun Day

 I am still trying to get myself back in the groove but really feeling frustrated in general lately and I KNOW that getting lost in creating will pull me out of it quickler.  Decided that everything else in life could take a back burner until I could get one layout done. LOL
  This is going to be entered into 2 different challenges. Color Me Scrappy has this color scheme as the challenge #59.

And sketch #265 at Creative Scrappers was the design inspiration

And here is my layout......

Thank you for taking a minute to drop by I am off now to begin all the things that were beckoning me before I took the detour to the craft cave!
