Sweet

This is a layout of my beautiful grandmother and my Tia Lucy. 

Since my last layout, was a tribute to my grandpa..I thought, it's grandma's turn to light up my blog! Say cheese....and I was able to get this memorable pic of her. 

I used papers from my C'est Magnifique KOTM. And I added some blues mixed in with shades of red to pop off the page. 

I painted my chippies with gesso, glimmer mist and coated it with glossy accents. I also used a stencil in the background and traced the diamonds so you can see them better. I added flowers and butterflies. 

Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to check out the rest of the talented girls at our SOUS blog!!

Hi everyone! We have another wonderful sketch challenge for you to play along with from Stuck On U Sketches. This sketch will run for two weeks, so come on over and join in on the fun!

And here is my interpretation of the sketch:

Just Adorable

First, this is a picture I took of my cousin and godson, hanging out and being silly. 

Now these papers are just awesome! They are so clean and vintage, it was hard to add pops of color. I tried to keep it neutral, to give it that romantic feel. 

Hope I did it justice. The papers are from Pion Design. I added some brads, chippies which I painted and distressed. The flowers and die cuts came with my KOTM from C'est Magnifique. I just loved this beige and simple design.

I used papers from my KOTM from C'est Magnifique. The papers are from a Denmark collection called the fall flea market. They are super gorgeous. The flowers are also from the kit.
