Hi everyone! I hope you had a fabulous week! With that said, we have another Project Life Challenge at Stuck On U Sketches ~ Add two journaling cards.
So head on over to SOUS and check out the rest of the design teams awesome creations. They have so many wonderful ideas and creations.


Here is my PL creation: 



This PL is dedicated to my grandfather on father's day. On the lower right side is a picture of my husband, grandfather, and me. And on the upper left side is a picture of grandfather, two cousins, aunt, and me. 
Oh and these papers were from the Bo Bunny Little Miss collection..so darling! 
The challenge was to use two journaling cards in your PL submission. One of my journaling cards says:

If there ever comes a day, 
when we can't be together, 
keep me in
your heart, 
I'll stay there
forever.


Hope you enjoy and have a wonderful week!

Hello Everyone and welcome to another challenge reveal at Stuck On U Sketches. Below is the awesome sketch created by our lovely Sandi Clarkson.
So head on over to SOUS to see the other design teams creations!

Here is the sketch:




 And here is my interpretation of the sketch:


Love Moments

This is a pic of my husband and me. I took this using my iphone. I also used my KOTM from Swirlydoos to create this layout. 
Below are some close-ups with more detail. 

Here you can see the distressing, masking, and stencils I used with acrylic paint. I also distressed the edges of my paper using some prima chalk ink. 

Love those orange/yellowish flowers. They are from both petaloo and prima. 

Awe..I made this flower using my tattered florals die from TH. I also colored with TA glimmer mist and inked the edges. 

The wood flourish is from kaisercraft painted with LuminArte Silks in bolivian blue. 

Hope you enjoy my pics. Have a wonderful week and thanks for stopping by.

New Project Life Challenge at Stuck On U Sketches

Hello Everyone! Today there is another reveal at Stuck On U Sketches for our Project Life Challenge "Use Twine". 

Here is my project:

Project Life- Twine

This is a layout of my hubby when we went out shooting..doing the manly man thing out in the desert. 
I had several of these pictures of him and thought this is the best project to use it for. Shooting his gun and smoking cigars..what can be more manlier? 
But I have to admit, and as silly as it may sound..it is definitely a stress reliever to go shooting with my husband. We always have such a good time. 

So head on over to SOUS and check out the other design teams creations using the theme, Twine. 

Have a wonderful week!

Hello Everyone! I hope you've had a wonderful week so far. I am so excited to be a part of the SOUS sketch design team. Woohoo! And with that said we have a wonderful sketch created by our lovely Sandi Clarkson.   This sketch will run from June 7th-20th. Come on over and check out the rest of the design teams creations, you are sure to be inspired!

Sketch:


Here is my interpretation:
Remember When

I created this layout using papers from my Swirlydoos KOTM. The papers are from the new prima "lyric collection". I also punched some circles using my new MS punch. I distressed the edges and painted with chalk ink. 
Some of the butterflies and flowers are prima wood embellishments which I covered with embossing powder from Lindy's Stamp Gang. I just love that stuff!
I also added some flowers from both prima and kaisercraft. 

The photo is one in the same, just duplicated and printed one of them in color. It's a pic of my beautiful mother and me. 

I hope you have a great week and don't forget to stop by SOUS to play along!
