Stick It Down - June 2022 Single Page Sketch Reveal - Like Father Like Son

     Hello! Hello! Happy Monday my fellow scrappy friends -

 what's everyone up to on this fine day??

For me, it's a typical workday. . . and my final reveal day as a 

member of the Stick It Down Team!

So, with that being said - I'm super excited to share with you my layout this month using another sketch by the very talented Laura Rumble.

 This month I chose to scrap a picture of my son Garrett and his dad from one of our recent "pick up" days. . . now that Garrett is over 18, I don't have to meet his dad "halfway" any longer for visitation drop offs. . . If Garrett goes to North Carolina, then his dad comes the whole way to get him. I usually will help out on the return trip and meet them at the Pennsylvania / Maryland Rest Area. Three hours there, and three hours back. This past trip was awful, awful, awful. . . the snow and sleet were a nightmare! I white knuckled it the whole way there and back, and my windshield wipers even tried to freeze up on me . . .but it was all worth it in the end - Garrett was home safe and sound! 

I really do love the sketch this month!! When I saw the triangles, I went to work immediately creating a cut file that would work for my 8-1/2 x 11 needs. *Please don't look too hard or you'll see all of the uneven triangles & spacing - but hey, this girl is still learning! Wanna know what the best part of this layout is - I used up a bunch of patterned paper scraps! Woot! Woot!

Stick It Down - March 2022 Single Page Sketch Reveal - That Shirt Though . . .

  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! 

I chose to scrap a picture of my son Garrett for this particular sketch. Pictures are getting harder and harder to come by these days, so I definitely snag them when I can. 

I opted not to use tags on this as I don't really have any in my stash, and I was already over fighting with my silhouette cameo from trying to cut my title. . .the stress just wasn't worth it to me. 

Journaling reads - 

Only you would decide to wear the same shirt to school on the very first day of every semester.

Today marked the sixth consecutive “first day” . . .and the shirt is still going strong. Only two more

semesters to go, and let’s not forget about those matching socks.

This layout, titled Best Day Ever is of my granddaughter Miss Everly Claire on her first day back to school. This was her first day back after summer break and she was super excited to see her friends. This is Everly's last year of preschool (Pre -K4) before she starts kindergarten. 

I loved working with this sketch because it was super easy to convert to my 8-1/2 x 11 needs! I'm sure I'll be using it again soon!

Stick It Down - January 2022 Single Page Sketch Reveal - Beautiful Dancer

    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 Laura Rumble. 

I chose to scrap these two pictures of my Granddaughter Everly taken during one of her Holiday Performances this year. As a grandmother, you hate missing these types of things, but luckily, they understand when you can't be there (sadly we live a couple of states away). Thank goodness my daughter shares in the "need" to photograph things . . . The sketch was a tough one for me this month, and I have to admit that the layout you see now WAS NOT the way I was originally going with it. I just couldn't make it work for me. . . once I found this cut file though, it all came together really, really quickly.

Stick It Down - September 2021 Single Page Reveal - Everly

 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 a sketch by Laura Rumble. The sketch required us to use an acrostic poem and I have to admit that in all of my scrapbooking years, I have never done this before. It definitely was super fun, and I'm pretty pleased with my layout!

I chose to scrap a layout of my granddaughter Miss Everly Claire, and used the letters in her first  name for my journaling.

E is for Electrifying, the way you charge the room

V is for Vivacious, you bring color to my life

 E is for Exciting, you're so full of joy.   

 R is for Rose, more beautiful as it unfolds

L is for Laughter, nothing is as infectious as yours 

Y is for Yes, we love you  every day. Every. Single. Day.
