Here is my take on my own sketch! This is Cassidy and her friend Emily (our friend's daughter). Cassidy got this wagon filled with pails and decided she wasn't too big to take a ride in it (which I had the camera when her legs were hanging over each side. She is literally cramped in there. Emily thought it would be fun to take her for a ride. Credits: Melyssa Connolly's My Favorite things - Scrap Outside the Box

Sharing LOs with my latest sketch

I thought it would be kewl to show some LOs using this week's sketch -- they are all sooooo great Growing Up - by mRs. GaToR The Most Peaceful Place - Kerri Horton Diva - StaceyD

Yesterday was huge rectangle Day

Wow, I was gallery surfing and found oh so many awesome rectangles that I can't even just pick one -- so I am going to spotlight a few This first one is so super unique -- I absolutely love it. Love the combination of shapes -- that photo of the church is awesome. I am tempted to go back to where I got married and take a similar type shot. B&W here makes the whole LO feel elegant against the cool greens / blues. The little photo is perfect! Love it Designer: m128p LO Link: This is the place Here is another awesome LO -- Love the shot. All the paper blocks and stitching is awesome -- again the use of B&W is GREAT. The journaling is great great great! Designer:ronagavino LO Link: Stolen Shot I have a few more that I will hold on to post later

Sketch Day is Back

OK, I had a hiatus from sketches over the last few weeks due to my crazy schedule at work and major PC issues @ home. But, look, here I am -- BACK AT LAST! So, here is today's sketch -- if you use it, let me know -- I will do a draw for a free kit :)

Multiphoto LO

OK, Sometimes I hear people don't like the rectangle because it is smaller and you can't do multiphoto LOs as well. Well, I really don't believe that to be true (and in fact, I have taken that to the extreme with some really cool multi-photo 6X4s and they look GREAT in print). So, when I saw this LO, I had to share -- check it out It is by a fellow designer at SOTB -- Isn't it adorable? GREAT arrangement of the photos too!
