Pencils Lines Sketch

I love, love, love doing sketches! It is my favorite scrapbook tool and one I turn to time and time again when I create my pages. I love that they give you a guideline but that you get to supply the creativity by choosing papers, embellishments, lettering and color pallette. With this sketch, PL partnered with OLW to make the challenge even more fantastic. Really, what scrapbooker can't come up with something using the word KEEP. Try to not find something really cute and/or meaningful, I dare you. Here is my sketch using a photo of my two oldest when they were babies. I keep saying that the girl is 20 now but she is still 19 and the boy is 17. Where did the time go? The Christmas Papers, embellishments and new paper are in the store. I have also gotten in more glimmer mist and the new screens (must see to believe). They are fantastic! Here is the sample of what's new........

Bo-Bunny Beau Jardin (gorgeous, gorgeous paper line)

Bo-Bunny Holiday Cheer

Fancy Pants 8X8 Happy Holidays Slab. How perfect is this for whipping out holiday cards and tags?........

Fancy Pants Happy Holidays Transparency........

Tattered Angels Glimmer Screens. Place them on your paper, spray glimmer mist over it and waalaaa, you have a beautiful image left behind (could you just eat those swirls & snowflakes?)

Some of the layouts that I have finished this week. I have also been practicing my photography! I was very happy with how bright and clear these were.

My daughter hates this photo and I have to admit, I don't know what I was thinking with the hair on the side, it was very Amish.

Awwwwww, he was so darn cute.......

A's elementary school art. She is just as wonky as me!
