Prom



The challenge at A2Z Scraplets is to use the sketch created by Liz Weber.  I made a layout of my niece's daughter and her prom date.

Purple Pumpkin entry

This layout is for the sketch at Purple Pumpkin. Another picture of my niece's little one - at 17 days old.



Voom

This layout is for the first sketch challenge at Boys Rule.  The picture is of my grandson playing a driving game at his 5th birthday party. I so love that little kids don't even care that there was no money in the machine - he was playing the demo.



Best Gift

Lets Get Sketchy is a brand new sketch site. There is currently a design team call going on over there (until February 10th) and this is the sketch to apply and my take on it.



This is my niece's baby boy who was born on December 12 at one day old.

Band-o-rama



I followed sketch #68 from Sketches In Thyme to make another layout of my grandson. Since he is a teenage boy I fought the urge to put a huge white flower in the empty brown space. The real trick was getting 12 inches of ribbon to cover 24 inches of space.

Cardstock from Target
Circle and music paper from Michaels $2 pack.
Ribbon from stash

Being Silly

The challenge this week at Lasting Memories is to "Trash Your Layouts".  I used corrugated cardboard cut from a box flap for mats under the title and journaling. The photo mats are scraps of cardstock and the title is from an already opened pack of thickers (leftovers). The layout is of my grandson and his girlfriend being silly in the photo booth. He doesn't know I took a picture of the photo strip he left sitting on his desk. : )
