Sketch N Scrap Card Challenge #161

Today I have your first card sketch of the year. The gals over at Sketch-N-Scrap have come up with some great examples based on my sketch, go check them out!

For my card, I played around with some stamped images from Concord & 9th. I'm always short on birthday cards, so a good thing they're fun to make!

Happy New Year!

I'm starting off the year a bit late showing this sketch, but hey I got it done! Lisa has a fun one for you to start the year off with, head on over to the Sketch-N-Scrap site to see what the other team members came up with.

Since the kids have been old enough to help decorate the tree, I've taken photos and scrapped a page. It's always fun to go back and see how much taller they are compared to the tree.

As we get close to the 25th, I want to wish everyone a very merry Christmas.

Today I'm showing a card sketch that Lisa designed for Sketch-N-Scrap.

For my card, I used a new stamp set I recently aquired from ColorBox call Cozy Cups. They are so much fun to color! I did quite a few in different color schemes.

If you can believe it, the triplets turned 10 this year! Double Digits! It felt like we celebrated for weeks between the sleep overs, the actual birthday and the Thanksgiving party. The kids didn't mind though!

How crazy is it that it is already December? I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a good amount of snow giving the kids 2 extra days at home. They are enjoying their long week off of school. For me I've had time to get some paper crafting done, starting with this layout based off of Lisa's sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap.

 Brett had another fun year of Flag Football. He's getting eager to play tackle, but this mom just isn't ready for that!

Lisa has a super fun card sketch for you guys today over at Sketch-N-Scrap.

For my card, I used a bunch of scrap pieces I've saved to make a rainbow effect. A real simple way to use up a variety of pieces. I accented the card with rainbow colored sequins.

Can you believe this year is about over! The days have just been flying by. It's nice to get a little time to scrap some of the memories we have had this fall. Head on over to the Sketch-N-Scrap blog and see what the other design team members did with my sketch.

The kids had a lot of fun carving pumpkins this year. They did such a great job! It was fun to see them lit up on the front steps.

Check out this great card sketch Lisa designed for Sketch-N-Scrap.

I had some fun stamping and die cutting a bunch of fruits using a set from Concord and 9th. For this card I decided to use some limes and pair it with the coordinating sentiment.

Sketch N Scrap Layout Challenge #187

Yeah, so this morning my sketch debuted on the Sketch-N-Scrap blog. Annndd I'm just getting my layout live now. Well, you know, life. The kids have me running in circles every day, after a full day of work. Still I enjoy being able to have some quiet time to scrap. I hope everyone is able to set aside a little time to work on their craft. For their own sake!

For my layout I was working with photos from this summer, finally getting a layout done with some of Brett's tball pictures. We just finished his football season this last weekend so I'm not too far behind!
