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!

Happy 10th Birthday Sketch N Scrap - Challenge #5 Throwback Sketch #132

                  Good morning my fellow scrapping friends - 

 Sketch N Scrap is celebrating ten years this month - and all month long we're posting "Throwback Sketch Challenges" for you to play along with. . . I'm up today with Birthday Bash Challenge #5 using Throwback Sketch #132 created by the very talented Sketch Designer Lisa Hidy!   I hope you enjoy my take on the sketch!! Make sure you follow along on the blog and our Facebook Group daily. You won't want to miss any of the fun challenges.

Today I'm working with Sketch #132 by Lisa Hidy @ Sketch N Scrap! 

So for my "throwback" Sketch pick, I chose Sketch #132 by Lisa Hidy. I was immediately drawn to the sketch for the simplest of reasons - the sketch was in red, white & blue and I had the perfect papers and pictures that I wanted to use . . . a huge THANK YOU to my friend Patti who gifted me with the Fancy Pants Hometown Summer collection. . . I'm absolutely in love with it! 

The sketch was super easy to convert to my 8-1/2 x 11 needs, and the whole layout come together pretty quickly - I think cutting the stars out took the majority of my time. Again, super easy sketch to work with, and I get to add another completed layout to the books!

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!

Sketch N Scrap - May 1st, 2022 Sketch Reveal - Sketch #248 by Lisa Hidy

                  Good morning my fellow scrapping friends - 

It's time for the April 1st Sketch Reveal @ Sketch N Scrap. 

Today I'm working with Sketch #248 by Lisa Hidy @ Sketch N Scrap! 

This particular sketch was super easy to work with (lovin' the multiple single photo option on this one). I know I always seem to say it, but . . . this  sketch really was super easy to convert to my 8-1/2 x 11 needs.

This layout is of my Granddaughter Everly at Knoebels Amusement Park. This summer we took her and Harrison, as well as the rest of the family there. Everly had "the best day ever" and was up for photos every single time I asked. . . needless to say, there were many pictures taken that day.
