I created this layout exclusively for this challenge! 

Here is the original sketch from Stuck?! Sketches: 

Stuck?! Sketches December 1st Sketch

 

I had loads of fun with this sketch, and knew I had to use this quirky photo of my son gingerly holding a bunny at the Apple Festival!  I pulled out lots of OLD supplies from my stash, including the printed mini tags, and that blue vellum tag, which is likely 10 years old!  Whew!  I made my "picture frame," from the negative spaces of a square punch, and used several buttons from my excessive collection.  Enjoy!

Giddy UP: A Layout for Let's Get Sketchy

Giddy Up!

 

I created this layout just for this sketch challenge!

Here is the original sketch from Let's Get Sketchy:

Let's Get Sketchy, December Week 1

I am 3 years behind in chronologically scrapbooking my youngest son's life, and this layout is proof!  These photos were taken in the fall of 2010, and I am just now working with them!  I also take TOO MANY photos, and even though I only scrap the best ones, there are still so many! I had fun with this sketch, and was able to incorporate several scraps of my favorite papers, crepe paper handmade rosettes and everything was from my stash!  Enjoy!

 

 

Sketches in Thyme: Sketch # 96

I am so excited to be a Guest Designer this week with Sketches in Thyme for Sketch #96!

 

 

As much as I love to use as many photos as I can on a layout - because I have so many to scrap - I am equally thrilled to focus a layout around 1 favorite photo!

 

All of these papers are from the My Mind's Eye Follow Your Heart Collection!

I created the 2 very different "rosettes" with an XXL Glue Dot for each, and torn strips of crepe paper twisted and stuck down for the larger, and strands of baker's twine and burlap twine twisted and coiled around and stuck down! 

 

I threw in a couple of random clock gears from Tim Holtz I picked up at a convention. I added in a cork tag I have had since 2007, and adhered patterned butterflies from Close To My Heart to it, along with a My Minds Eye bakers twine length or two!

 

 

 Next, I added a ticket from Jenni Bowlin and inked it all over.  Another butterfly to tie my clusters together, and a twine rosette I made with an XXL Glue Dot!   I added some simple journaling, a title with puffy thickers, a few brads, and I was done!
