Sketch Saturday Design Team Challenge

It's that time again, Sketchy Saturday Challenge.  Head on over to The Scrapoholic to see what the Design team has created and then create something of your very own to share.  Here is the sketch we used this week.

Here is the Layout that I came up with.  Now I usually give my self plenty of time for a Layout.  I will take a look at the sketch a week or so before and run idea's through my mind through out the day.  Sometimes I will have great ideas and I will come home and put together a page. Then there are times I struggle with ideas. Well with this one I had an all day out of town field trip to go on with my daughter on Monday.  Well that still gives several days, so I thought.  I woke up on Tuesday sick as could be and I keep thinking it's going to get better and well no.  I can only be up for a couple hours at a time and then I'm exhausted and have to go lay back down.  So I did this Layout in shifts.

The Easter eggs and "Easter" tittle was cut from Designers Calender. The eggs have a touch of stickles.  I went with Easter for the obvious reason, we just had Easter and I have photo's to scrap.  I went to print out my pictures and well of course I was out of ink...Grrrrr! Well, with me being sick, I wasn't up to doing anything about it so for now I left the photo's off. The pink w/ white polka dots paper came out of my scrap folder and the Happy Easter ribbon is from DCWV the spring Adhesive Easter ribbon. Then using doodle charm I cut 3 bunny's and added some googlie eyes. 

I know it is really plain and lacks details but honestly I'm excited that I was even able to do this much. I think this is about all I've done all week besides sleep, oh and watch HSN Launch the E2. So thanks for stopping by and don't forget to give this Layout a try.

                                                              

A Scrapbook page a day

So my real passion is scrapbooking. When I say scrapbooking I do mean hands on, paper scissors, embeishments. I've got way too much invested into the machines and paper "stuff" to go digital. My biggest problems are that I don't have alot of time and I spend 2-3 hours per page layout. So I have made a resolution to do one page per day. I'm so far behind that even one page a day will never catch me up but at least I won't fall completly behind. The blank spaces are for journaling that I will fill in later while watching TV or I will often take with me to work or other appointments where I will be sitting and waiting. So check back daily to see new pages.



Today I was fortunate enough to take a full day off. It was amazing. I scrapbooked all day it was freaking amazing and long awaited. So I did get a couple of pages done to start off the page a day. I'm not completly happy with this page. I think it needs more stickers, rub ons or something. But for now it's done.
