Sketch #106...and a winner!

Hey Ladies, how are you? I'm so jealous of all you that are in nice warm weather. I'm ready for winter to be over, especially after being snowed in for 3 days last week. You would think I would've been happy to scrapbook but I never even did one page! Depressing isn't it! I want to thank all my friends who still stop by this boring blog to catch a glimpse of my life every once in a while. My time as part of the DT at The Scrappiest is coming to a end soon. I will let you know when she posts that she is looking for her new DT. Liz and her sketches have been so fun to work with.

I think I need a break from a DT and stuff for awhile. My hope is I will get back into why I started scrapbooking in the 1st place. I need to go to a crop, that always seems to get my creative side goin again! What do you guys do when you are in a creative slump?

Anyways enough already.....I used randomgenerator.org to come up with #11! The winner is VICKI who said "Wonderful layout. Love your take on the sketch. Thanks for sharing.". Vicki please email me your address, I will get a box full of goodies out to you. It will be a surprise!

And for any of those that have prayed for my brother I really appreciate it! He has been moved to a better hospital where they fully believe he will come out of his coma. They said to be patient, it will take at-least 5mo. for him to even start coming out. I went and visited him and he did look at me! It was pretty amazing. He is having times of awareness and responding but they are short moments that come and go. It will be a long road and we will need continued prayers for him. So thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers and encouraging stories. You are the best....next to the almighty and powerful God of-course!

Here is my layout I did for sketch #106 at The Scrappiest. Its me and the hubby on vacation this summer. One of the boys took the pic, not bad huh! I loved this kit from Transparent Touches & Tags! I altered the photo to subdue the colors to match better with the papers. Thanks for stopping by friends!

Great layout. Love the pp and alphas. When you're in a slump do a fun page with papers and elements you love.

OKAY ... I need to start hiding some blogs on blogger so I dont miss the important posts LIKE THIS ONE. First I love you Layout !!!
SECOND ... even though you always think Im amazing (lol) I have creative blocks once in awhile too. What helps is when I have an extreme one thats giving me a headache, I leave the scrap area and come back another day. When I really want to work on something and I cant think of what to do ... I dig threw my folder and do a scrap lift. It helps get the jucies flowing. I wish I was there I would slap you out of your slump. :)
