Sketches in Thyme #219

I want to say Happy Fall Ya'll but it is still 90+ degrees here in Alabama!!

So I am back with another great sketch from Sketches in Thyme and you have so many options with this sketch.  You can flip it or use on large picture or whatever fits your theme best.



I just happened to have these pictures of my nephew, Cannon, hitting the ball during fall ball last year so I knew they would work perfect with this sketch.  This fabulous baseball paper is from Paper House Productions and absolutely love it, not only for baseball, but it would work great for 4th of July too!

Sketches in Thyme #209

Hey guys... I am back this week with a fabulous sketch from Shawn Lahr, one of our awesome designers!!


I had these pictures of one of my nephews, Cannon - aka - Can-Man - aka - Man, giving the thumbs up, which in his world means all is good!!



I love the geometric look with the circles and triangles, it wasn't really planned just how it worked out ;)

Finally Back...

I am finally back after a 2 month hiatus...  we have been doing some renovations at our house and it had me out of commission since my scrap room was being stored in the hub's man cave while new floors were going in.  We finally got rid of the nasty carpet that covered our stairs and entire upstairs and put in shiny new laminate and hardwoods.

I also decided to move my scrap room in the process so I could get more room and better lighting.
While I still have a ways to go to get it finished I did manage to find enough space to get my layout done for Sketches in Thyme reveal #204 today.  I also managed to find these pics from my in-laws 50th anniversary last year along with some Authentique paper and here we go...  my first layout in about 2 months!!

Hop on over and get your layout in by the end of the month for a chance at a fabulous prize!!

And I promise to post some pics of my room once I get it finished.

Let's Get Sketchy challenge

And I am back with another layout from my scrappy weekend... this time for Let's Get Sketchy  .
The hubs took these pics during "snowpacolypse" while I was stuck in a hotel after 2 hours of going 5 miles in a freak snow event that pretty much crippled our city.  I found this Echo Park paper that worked fabulously with the red bird and in an effort to use my Silhouette more information cut the snow bird title.

Let's Scrap Sketches April 1st challenge

I am spending the weekend with some of my favorite scrap girlies at a retreat and finally had a chance to complete some sketch challenges.  Let's Scrap Sketches  is one of my favorite sites, and was a part of the DT a few months ago, they always have fabulous sketches to work with.

I love this sketch, there are so many possibilities, I used some Christmas pics and paper that I have been carrying around for  while and think it turned out pretty cute ;)

Happy March everyone... this year is just flying by!!! Seems like I just did last months blog post and now I am back with another fabulous sketch from Sketches in Thyme designer Sara Mischer.



I adjusted my layout slightly cause I didn't have the right size pics to use, but I found some MME Lime Twist paper and knew these were the photos to go with it!!
