Parkway

Hi again friends! There are a few May challenges that are ending today that I wanted to play along with, so I got crafty earlier today and created this fun page...






Supplies: Fancy Pants Childish Things Paper - Snacktime, Sheet Of Music, Imagination; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; AC/Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Roller Date Stamp; Fiskars Circle Punches - Extra Large, Large; Fiskars Nice Tri Punch; BoBunny Et Cetera Alpha Stickers; Heidi Swapp Ghost Hearts; Making Memories Button; Studio G Brad; DMC Floss; Twine; 1942 Report Font

I was inspired by this sketch my friend Theresa created...



...and I adore how my layout turned out! My hubby and I love taking our girls and going for long drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway here in NC. It's absolutely gorgeous up there and we never get tired of seeing what it has to offer, and of course we always have tons of pics! This sketch worked perfectly to get a few different ones on my page without crowding it at all, which totally rocks. ;)

I hope you're all having an amazing Thursday!

MMD Sketch #18

Good morning! I have a new sketch from Miracles Momma Designs to share with you today. This is a seriously fun sketch that could be used in so many different ways...








Supplies: Echo Park Hello Summer Papers - You've Been Flagged, Little Flowers, Banners; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Scattered Straw; ColorBox Chalk Ink - Chestnut Roan; Studio Calico Mister Huey - Classic Calico, Calico White; Ali Edwards Stamps - Simple Joy; American Crafts Stamp; AC/Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Roller Date Stamp; Martha Stewart Large Circle Cutter; Studio Calico Wooden Veneer Butterflies; Architects Daughter Font

Although I absolutely adore the circles on the sketch, I couldn't find a way to make them work for me, so I focused on the basics of the sketch instead and it worked out great! I've had this super cute picture of my girls for a while now and this sketch along with these fabulous Hello Summer papers from Echo Park made it so fun to scrap!

If you have a minute, please head over to Heather's post today at Miracles Momma Designs and check out all of the other DT pages...everyone rocked this sketch!
