It's 2020


 I made this layout with three challenges in mind.

First I used the sketch at "THROUGH THE EYES OF ROCHELLE SPEARS"  I love banners so this was a fun sketch to play around with and find the papers and combinations I wanted to work with.   Rochelle always has the best sketches.


Next I went with part two of the scrappy friends challenge and used the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge with  "SCRAP WITH STACY"  these tic-tac-toe challenges are always fun.  I did a diagonal row top left to bottom right.   Cork, Wood Stickers and Wood.


Then last but far from least I'm entering this layout at "SCRAP CHALLENGE YOURSELF"  I don't always have a lot of pictures of myself so this challenge always pushes me to be sure I'm in the pictures sometimes too.   Challenge #81 is "Thankful"  and I'm thankful for my brother.   This was taken in early May and it's my brother and Dad and I together, this was about the time I started spending most of my time at my brothers house, pretty much 24/7 before my Dad passed in August.   I'm so thankful for all that time we had together.   At the beginning of it Dad was feeling good, but the last 3 weeks the cancer got worse and worse but I'm still thankful I was right there with him until the end.
