I am excited to announce that I made the My Scraps & More Sketch design team. There is an amazing group of ladies over there and I am honored to be a part of them. Here is my entry that got me onto this wonderful team.

This is the sketch I was working from. My Scraps & More Sketches posts a new sketch every Friday on their blog so if haven't already, check it out. I would love to see your takes on the sketches too!

A big congratulations to the 8 other talented ladies that also made the sketch design team with me, I am looking forward to working with all of you!

Hello grunge! It was fun making this grungy page of Trevor sitting on the rocks next to Lake Tahoe. I used the Bo-Bunny Mama-Razzi Collection and I really love the film strip ribbon I used from Tim Holz.

I used this weeks sketch #66 from My Scraps & More Sketches. It was a great sketch to work with, check it out!

Awww, look how young Trevor is!

Last month I won these fun Studio Calico Yearbook papers for doing challenges at My Scraps and More. This month one of the challenges was to do a school themed layout so of course these were perfect for it.

Get Happy

This layout was for the January Pass It On Challenge at My Scraps and More. I used a really old line from Cosmo Cricket called Get Happy.

Making Flowers

Made this fun Poinsettia and then needed somewhere to put it on, so I made this Christmas card. I know its not Christmas time but the flower was cute and I needed to put it on something. :)

I used Heartfelt Creations stamps and dies.

It made me smile at least. A friend of mine shared this with me and I liked it so much I'm sharing it here. :)

Been working with bright papers a lot it seems lately and I'm really enjoying them. I made this layout for a Saturday Steal Challenge at My Scraps and More. The paper line I used was Bo-Bunny Sun Kissed and the title is from Daisy d that I have had foreva! Funny how I used to hoard all my scrappy things but right now I am really loving using them all up.

Love these pictures of the kids in Cozumel on the fake donkeys and with the sombreros. The Bo-Bunny Ad Libs line seemed to go perfectly with them. The embellishments are things I have had around forever in my stash.

I also used the January sketch from My Creative Sketches blog, all I did was flip the sketch.

One of the challenges at My Scraps and More was to use an old picture from your stash. I chose this picture of my daughter when she was 2.

Most of the papers and stickers I used are from the Echo Park Tis the Season line. The Poinsettias are from Petaloo and the alphas are Thickers.

On the edge of the white cardstock I used my Copic airbrush system with Copic color R59. That was kinda fun to do. :)

Sketch #64

Another great sketch at My Scraps & More Sketch blog. Wendi Robinson one of the talented design team members there designed it.

Here is my take on the sketch. I used the Echo Park Life is Good collection for my page. I took the picture of my daughter with my cell phone so it really isnt a very good pic but it just made me laugh so I had to scrap it.

Sketch Challenge

I absolutely loved this sketch at My Scraps & More Sketches

and this was my take on the sketch. I used the Creative Imagination Christine Adolph line on it and few embellishments I have had in my stash for a long time.
