The Scrappiest #77

What a fun Sketch this was to work with. Still not sure If Im going to leave my layout as a circle. I just put the brown behind it when I scanned it. How many of you do circle layouts? I know they are popular but sometimes I have a hard time just leaving it a circle.
Make sure to check out the other work at The Scrappiest, I really feel privileged, those girls are soooo talented!

My boys so proud, it was his 5th Birthday and he caught the "catch" of the day. Wish the pole wasn't in his face but it was the best pic I had. Thanks for stopping by!

BIG GIVE-AWAY

It must be Fri the 13th because I just posted twice in one day! I don't know why Patty is requiring me to divulge this info., I really don't want to share because the less you know the better chance I have. Well I guess I will be a good sport, Hop on over to Patty's Blog & check out her generous give-away. And If your new to her blog make sure you check out her work. She really has no clue how talented she really is....or she just hasn't been "found" yet! Good Luck!

Wanted to share

Just wanted to share a couple more layouts I did with the Transparent Touches & Tags kit this month. Monica posted my layouts up on the blog, so I guess that means I can share them now!  Did I mention how much I loved this kit, the foil lace was really fun too & I love the way it looked scanned in....so colorful! Thanks for stopping by!

Today is a Good Day!

I can finally share with you all the layouts I have been working on. Well a couple anyways, I will post more in a couple days.
August has been a exciting "scrappy" month for me. Monica at Transparent Touches asked me to Guest Design with one of the August kits. I totally loved this Fancy Pants, Like Father Like Son line. I ended up doing  4 layouts about this one trip so sorry about the repeat of clothing....really I just dont like to do laundry! ;)
I really love her kits, she has 3 to chose from every month so I can always find one I am sure to fall in love with!

For this SuperHero layout the paper was almost all one color, not alot of dimension. I used my mist and painted on the orange swirls and I also painted in the title and added some color around the edges. It was perfect for this paper that already had a watercolor effect to it. Doesn't my boy just look like a little Diego adventurer. So cute!

For my next big happy moment I wanted to share with you that I am on THE SCRAPPIEST design team! The new design team is amazing & she had over 100 entries to chose from so I feel super excited that she picked me. I have really enjoyed using sketches and Liz has some really great ones & she always has fun prizes every month. So I hope you stop over and play with us sometime! Here is the 1st layout I have done. Its pretty simple not my most favorite. It was late at night and I was struggling with my mojo.....ya know how that goes. Plus my sewing machine decided not to work again! I really just need to buy a new one. Thanks for stopping by!

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!
