Farewell

Pout, Pout, My time at Twisted Sketches is up but I am sure I will continue to play with Anam's great sketches.....and hopefully be on a new design team....keeping my fingers crossed. The new design team at TS is posted and they are all fantastic. So much great diversity.

This layout almost did not happen. I was having so many problems with my computer...printing photos, scanning it in.... If a baseball bat was near It might have been in a million little pieces. Isn't technology such a pain sometimes! Anyways...I could go on, but I won't!

The twist was "joy". When I seen this picture all I could see was pure joy in my babies face. There was a couple more cute pics that I wanted to add...but hence my printer would not print them...at least I got the best one.

I do have some exciting news about something I get to do next month....but I don't know If I can share yet....let's just say I will be awaiting the arrival of something in the mail! Just wish I had a cute mailman....hehe kidding honey. ;)

Thanks for dropping by, I always love comment's, so If your a blog stalker...stop stalking and leave a comment! :)

My favorite twist yet!

Ok So my Design Team Term is coming to a end at Twisted Sketches. I have one more sketch left to do....pout...pout. This weeks twist was "Star"...I thought how appropriate.....and easy for me! I decided to do a layout of myself and my new haircut! I really liked the clean and simple lines of this sketch along with all the negative space.  ....oh and did you see I got my sewing machine working again. That thing really has a mind of its own....but I cant seem to live without it lately!
Thanks for stopping by!
Sorry If I haven't been by your blog lately, Im so behind on blog surfing!

My son-shine

Here is a layout I did with the newest Twisted Sketches Sketch. The twist was 'sunshine'. This was a easy one for me since we just got back from vacation. I used some old Fancy Pants, I loved this line but still had some leftover. There isnt as much detail as I would have liked....the power cord is now not working on my sewing machine....pout...pout. I love this lullaby & It is always my favorite to sing to them & what a great opportunity to get this story in their albums!

So our vacation was amazing! We didn't want to come back home. The very first day it was storming so I did get this layout done. It was a old funny picture I had. Nothing to great, I didn't bring much with me. But I can say I got 1 done anyways. The rest of the time we were busy or I was engrossed in my new book "The Host" by Stephanie Meyers. It was a great beach read. Well I hope everyone summer is going well. I would post some vacation pics but Im sure you will see them scrapped soon enough!


Thanks for stopping and leaving comments, I love them!

Twisted Sketches #55

This weeks twist from Twisted Sketches is flag. You should really check out the design teams work, they did an amazing job...so many cute flags & banners. I seen these pictures I wanted to scrap and they had all the right colors of the U.S. flag so that was the direction I was heading....then....I realized I had this umbrella & rain paper...and it kind of went from there. So the concept got lost but I still love the ending result!

This layout I did for a contest at Transparent Touches using a Becky Fleck sketch and mostly TTkits. I am lovin jillibean soup, arent you?
We will be going on vacation in 3 days....I'm really thinking I'm going to bring some kits, pics & tools...don't know If I will get anything done....I know its vacation, but I haven't gotten much done at home lately. It is going to be 1wk of laid back summer days at a beach house, so I might get some done. Do any of you scrap while on vacation?

Twisted Sketch #53

Another awesome Twisted Sketch, with the twist being "Acrylic". So I whipped out my paint and painted some chipboard. Its been awhile since I did that! I couldnt wait to scrap this picture of my baby boy turning 5. He looked so cute in his hat from school with his ears folded down and that adorable grin he carries for most of the day! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you come join us at Twisted Sketches!

Twisted Sketches #51

Hey all, another 2 weeks has gone by and I haven't gotten much craft time in...:(. Im going to try and get more done this week, I have some awesome kits that need to get played with. The twist this week at Twisted Sketches was "new", I could have went a million directions with this one....but seeing I just had a new Transparent Touches kit to play with, that is the new I used! Hope everyone is having a good start to their summer! Thanks for stopping by!

Twisted Sketches #49

Has it been 2 weeks already since my last post! The last couple months have been flyin by! The kids will be out of school soon. I am looking forward to vacation! 
Another great sketch is up at Twisted Sketches, come check it out and play along! The twist is "color", I just decided I would use lots of bold colors for it....like I usually do! I finally remembered to buy needles so this is the first time I have ever hand-stitched a layout. It did not take as long as I thought and I LOVE how it turned out. Thanks for stopping bye!
