Love Today

Hi everyone! I had some crafty time today, while cleaning and cooking for Easter, so I couldn't wait to jump on this sketch challenge from Rochelle Spears. I had a lot of fun with this sketch.  I also added in the picture challenge from Scrap With Stacy. It took a bit to figure out which picture I wanted to use but once I found this scene from our trip to Galena last year I knew it was perfect.

For the photo you have endless options for inspiration.  I chose the green grass and being outdoors. For my papers and embellishments I used a kit I purchased from The Scrap Room. 

Supplies: flower market papers, chipboard embellishments and dots from Carta Bella and Elizabeth crafts stitched circles dies

I found a great sketch challenge over at Rochelle Spears. Not only is it a sketch challenge she also added that you must use chevron paper on it as well.  I love chevron so this was super fun!

Here is her sketch

Here is my finished layout.  I've had this black, red and white paper pack for, it's gotta be 4 years now and I've never used it.  I'm trying to use more of what I have on hand and get my stash down (the scrapbook expo is coming very soon). 

I miss the days of Santa coming to visit the kids and them being so excited for Christmas Eve at Nana's.  Now they are 21, 19 and 16 and Christmas just isn't the same.  I love finding old photos and getting to scrap them!

SUPPLIES: candy cane lane paper pad by DCWV, silver brad (hobby lobby) and candy cane brads (eyelet outlet)
