It seems I have left my little man out these past few weeks! I will have to scrap about him tonight! Hope one of these inspires you to scrap a little! Have a great week!

Last Nuts About Sketches DT Layout

This week's sketch at Nuts About Sketches is fabulous as usual. I have enjoyed my time on the design team, and I will continue to play along. Here's the sketch:

My layout uses You and I kit from Litabells at Scrap Orchard.

Here's a two pager I did a few days ago. It uses a template from Scrappin with Liz and Free Spirit kit by Megan's Creations and Schoowltime kit by T for Me Designs.

One more about Will being in the Lion King show at Disney's Animal Kingdom. I used a template from Fiddle Dee Dee Designs and Silly Nilly kit from Secret Stash as well as polka dot alpha by Miss Mint and doodle alpha by K Hartley.







Nuts About Sketches

This week's sketch at Nuts About Sketches is an awesome two pager! My layout uses A Christmas to Remember kit from Megan's Creations. Brush is from Hint At It 2 brushes by Lynn Grieveson.

Here is the sketch:

I added a couple of photos to mine! Always remember a sketch is just a jumping off point or "good bones" for your layout. Making the layout your own is part of the fun!

As always, the daily and Make It Snappy challenges at Scrap Orchard are keeping me scrapping! I'm gonna share a couple of the layouts I did this week. The first one is from the MIS I participated in last night. Sometimes it amazes me what they can get out of me in an hour when challenged with specific instructions. This layout uses Wise Old Owl by Meredith Cardall except frame by Jady Day Studio. Template is by Fiddle Dee Dee Designs.

Here's one from a color challenge with another template by Fiddle Dee Dee. Twinkle Toes kit by Kristin Aagard except Holly Jolly alpha by Chelle's Creation and small flowers from Feb 2010 Scrap Orchard mega.

Thanks for looking! Hope you have been inspired!

Warning: Layout Overload and Freebie

Just realized that this one didn't publish for some reason last week, so you get an overload today! :)

I have been remiss in posting for the past couple of weeks. I need to share my layout for Nuts About Sketches and I want to share a few more of my favorites from the past two weeks. However, first I have a cute alpha for you!
Valentine Alpha

Here's this weeks sketch:

Here is my layout. All paper and elements are from Just Stay Little kit by Designs by Dani except Date Dots brushes by Amber Clegg.

Here's one about my middle dd who has always said this rhyme with "bite his toe." Jungle Antics kit by Heather Roselli except Bunny Trail alpha by Julie Bullock.

One more! Template by Scrappin with Liz and Tutu Cute kit by Chelle's Creations.

NAS Reveal

This week I only have my layout for Nuts About Sketches to share with you. First, the sketch:

As usual, Shawn's sketch is wonderfully inspirational. My layout rotates the sketch and focuses on the circular elements. All papers and elements are from the January Mega at Scrap Orchard . This layout is another example of using my journal to scrap really old photos. Anna is now six, but I have her list of attributes at 15 months in a journal.

That's it for the time being. I am scrapping a photobook for a dear friend. This is the first time I have scrapped for someone else! She has an adorable little boy and I couldn't resist making a photobook about him. Things at PxlCafe are hopping. We are looking at new things to get everyone involved. Look for more freebies and maybe some challenges or tutorials.
