It seems that I have been so busy that my Mojo has escaped. I used to be so good at doing the Monday sketches and I am missing them. So, when I came home from work last night I was determined to do the sketch. This card uses an image from Pink Cat Studios and the paper is from Basic Grey.
I love sketch challenges and when I saw this sketch at Let's Scrap, I new that it would be perfect for the pictures that I took of Lexi, my friend Julie and her daughter Stacey. Julie and I met in Lamaze Class 28 years ago. I was pregnant with Jennifer, Lexi's mother, and Julie with Katie. A couple of years later we were pregnant again. I had a boy and she had another girl, Stacey. Our kids used to play with each other when they were small and Julie and I were inseperable. As the kids grew up, we lost touch with each other. We reunited on Facebook after 10+ years and have picked up where we left off. Julie and Stacey have fallen for Lexi and she loves them too. The paper used is Sugar Rush from Basic Grey
Here is another layout of Lexi at the Art & Wind festival. I used the same Sugar Rush paper pack from Basic Grey.
Today is my sister Chris' birthday. I had made the other two cards for her friends and this time I made one for her. This is "Izzie has balloons" and she is from Stamping Bella. Chris is a big quilter and has made some of the most beautiful quilts that I have ever seen. So, I thought this quilt patterned paper by Basic Grey would be perfect for her. The paper is called "June Bug". I added "liquid glass" to the balloons to give them some dimension and raised the red balloon on a pop dot. Hope she likes it.
Last night I worked on this layout of Lexi dressed up as Dorothy. The paper is Basic Grey Urban Prairie. I used Sketch #16 from Inspired Blueprints.
