Man

Wanted to share a new layout I made based on The Green Frog Studio Sketch Wednesday challenge. 

I was inspired by the layout by Nulka. It is incredible! Mine, not so much. But I did have fun playing with misting with various stencils. And I decided to use a smaller page (8.5 x 11 turned sideways) than the 12 x 12 one in the challenge.

This is a photo of Trevor from the Spring Break trip (from the mini album I created earlier this week).  See this post.  When I looked at the photo, I felt like there was a story to be told, so I wanted to make a stand alone layout rather that including it in the mini album.

Journaling: My little boy man. I took this photo this past spring.  I just can't wrap my brain around the fact that he is all grown up! Even though he no longer lives at home. Even though he has a fiance. Even though he has been taller than me for years. At what point does a mama bear stop seeing the little boy, and start seeing the man?

Hope you enjoyed! Do you have any layouts to share with me?

Sketch Wednesday

I linked up again with Green Frog Studio again this week for Sketch Wednesday.

 I tried something new today. I wanted to use these photos from a photo booth at Knott's Berry Farm, so I decided to copy onto copy paper, rather than my usual photo paper. I made 2 copies, 1 color and 1 black and white. I love how they turned out! And they were super quick and easy to print.

Journaling reads: Almost 20 years of marriage. I'm ready to enjoy another 20. With you.

I love that I have made another traditional scrapbook page.

I love the way the page turned out.

I love how easy it all came together. No over thinking.

Now it's your turn to make something. Go check out the Green Frog Studio. You won't regret it!

Sketch Wednesday

I haven't done much traditional scrap booking lately, but I was inspired by the layouts on The Green Frog Studio today, so I sat down and made this layout.

Sorry that the photo of the entire layout is so bad. I will have to practice and find a better way to take layout photos.

Journaling reads:
These 2 really are daddy's girls. He paints their nails, gives them rubs at bedtime, takes them shopping for girlie things at Claire's, takes them lunch at school on brown bag Fridays, and he loves doing it all for them!

Hope you find a few minutes today to do something you enjoy! It will be worth it!
