Sketch N Scrap - May 15th, 2022 Reveal - Sketch #249 by Heather Hall

                 Good morning my fellow scrapping friends - 

We're halfway through the month-long "10th" Birthday Bash Celebration @ Sketch N Scrap! 

Hope you've been playing along with us! 

Today is May 15th, and that means it's Sketch Reveal Day

 @ Sketch N Scrap. 

Today I'm working with Sketch #249 by Heather Hall @ Sketch N Scrap! 

I was a bit leery about this sketch in the beginning as I'm not very good at making banners at all! Once I convinced myself that the sketch was just a starting point and did not need to be followed to the tee, I was able to come up with a game plan! I think at that point the most difficult thing was trying to determine if I was going to go with the patterned paper or the solid color cardstock. . . as you can see, I went with the patterned paper!  I'm personally lovin' having grandbabies as I get to scrap some super cute layouts! And this one is definitely that! 

Thanks, Heather, for the inspirational sketch this month. 

This layout is of my Granddaughter Everly at a recent Easter Egg Hunt that the apartment complex (where she lives) hosted for the children. I've got numerous pictures from that day, but this particular one needed to be scrapped alone, and worked perfectly with the sketch! The picture just makes me smile. . . she was soooo happy that day and I can only imagine what she must be telling the Easter Bunny - I'm sure it had something to do with candy, as the girl loves her some candy.

Seriously though, who doesn’t love the Easter Bunny?? Everly making sure he knows just how much she loves him & how much she’ll enjoy all the “candy” that he’ll be bringing her on Easter Sunday!

Stick It Down - May 2022 Single Page Sketch Reveal - Easter Fun

    Hello my scrappy friends - Today is reveal day for me @  Stick It Down 

So. . .  I'm super excited to share with you my layout this month using another sketch by the very talented Laura Rumble. I always start out a bit intimidated by the sketch, but ultimately wind up loving my layout and the sketch - this time was no exception! 

 This month I chose to scrap pictures of my Grandson Harrison that were taken during an Easter Egg Hunt that was hosted by the Apartment Complex where his family lives. 

I will say that I love the sketch, and what I've seen others do with it so far . . . but, I wasn't too sure how I was going to scale it down to fit my 8-1/2 x 11 needs. After some quick measurements, and a few trial and errors with the circle placement I finally found something that worked for me! And once again, I love the final result - and now that I know the size requirements, I think I may use the exact same sketch and papers for photos of my Granddaughter Everly from the very same event!

Easter Fun @ the Jamestown Apartments!

 Harrison met the Easter Bunny for the first time and hunted for eggs just like a big boy!
