You're the One

Wow! Two posts in one day, I am on a roll! :) I decided to go ahead and do the April Single Sketch Challenge with Stick it Down because it is time to start a whole new book. I love a fresh new scrapbook, don't you? Here's the sketch...

Awesome, right?!
 

I had a lot of fun with this page. The paper I chose is from My Mind's Eye and my collection is running low because it is one of my faves!


The larger flowers are cut from The Cinnamon Luster Stack by DCWV.


Late night scrapping makes me a little sentimental...borderline sappy. It's so much fun to watch B grow and change, but it is bittersweet...I love being his mom and I want to keep him little forever! 

 
Hope y'all enjoyed my layout, have a scrap'n good time!

Stick it Down: March Double Sketch Challenge!

I pretty much ALWAYS do double pages, aside from the first and last page of my scrapbooks, I like for there to be cohesion between pages that are next to each other. I was so excited to find the Stick it Down Double Sketches!

This is the March Double Sketch
 
I wanted to try something new with this layout and instead of using paper to layer the circle on top of my background paper I cut a hole in the background paper to put the circle underneath. I think it created an interesting look that I have never done before, what do you think?
 

For this layout I chose a combination of papers, the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 3 "Oliver" for the majority of this layout, but also included a page from the Tim Holtz idea-ology Lost and Found paper stash. I love the fun youthful feel of the bottle caps! I also used vellum quotes from colorbok, my newest addiction- the inkadinkado stamping gear, and fun sparkly brads!  




 
I think this layout conveys my son's natural ability to find the fun in any activity, it captures his silliness and his love for life! I am so thankful to Stick it Down for inspiring me, everyone should check out their challenges, if double pages aren't your thing they have single challenges and card challenges too! Awesome!
 
Have a scrap'n good time, y'all!
