Christmas Week PL Title Card

I made this PL title page for Christmas week 2015.     I used the latest PL Card sketch at
"SKETCHS IN THYME PROJECT LIFE STYLE"    It has been so much fun having sketches to
inspire me to make my own cards.   I hope you will join in the fun.

Here is the sketch and go   HERE   for the details of the challenge and see some new inspiration every day.

Here is how I used it on my PL pages.

Happy 5th Birthday Gibson

Need to get busy on some more layouts for David and Nikki and kids as they are coming to visit in about 2 weeks.   I have a lot of pictures saved but starting out with these from Gibson's birthday last week.

This is my reveal for the "SKETCHES IN THYME" February 1st sketch.    I always panic over cutting circles, but i get my dinner plates out and bowls and see what sizes I need.   My desk ends up looking like my kitchen table.   Fun times.

Check out the sketch below and all the challenge details here at "SKETCHES IN THYME"  and be sure and come back everyday to see what the other DT members do.

Journey

I decided to look back through some older pictures and catch up on scrapping them.     We made a couple hour stop in Baltimore in the Inner Harbor area on our road trip to New York City.     I had been there one other time and just loved the area and wanted to go back again and just walk and see a few things.   We got there early, about 8:30 and had planned to be there for lunch but after walking around and seeing all we wanted and of course taking a few pictures.   Before 11:00 it started to rain and get windy so we decided to just head out and eat on the road as we weren't ready for an early lunch.    But we got to see a lot and I'm glad we stopped.   It's always a great area to stroll through.

I decided to put some of the snapshots together into a double page layout and this one just posted
on February 1 at  "LET'S SCRAP"  was perfect to use.    Loved using a variety of dollies in different colors and also make some banners.   Some favorites of mine all together.  Plus got to use some of my road trip paper I've been hoarding.

Check out all the details for the challenge    HERE.

Gone Fishing

Woo Hoo, my stepson and family will be here tomorrow and I got one more layout made of the kids to give them to take home for their albums.      These were pictures down at my stepdaughters house when we were all there in October.  I had already made a layout of Gibson fishing but not one of Bryce so now I have that covered too.

I used the 1-15-17 Sketchy Friday sketch from  "SCRAP MUCH ?"    I had 3 pictures I wanted to use so YEAH again.

I used the Basic Grey collection Adrift for this, first time I've cut into it.   So sorry to see them quitting their paper line.

Play Time

I'm on the DT at "SKETCHES IN THYME"   and this is not my week or sketch to work with but
I had the perfect pictures to work with Brenda Ragsdale Sketch #82 so just wanted to share it here.

Here is the sketch and go to "SKETCHES IN THYME" to see what this weeks DT did.

From the Car

I am back one more time this month using the 1-15-16 sketch at "SCRAP OUR STASH"
Sketch + 3 challenge

I just loved this challenge so kept it on my desk an sure enough I got to it again.
This time  from list #1 I used 2 different American Craft papers,  the striped paper strip on the left and then the wider blue paper with the words written on them, both are from the Mayberry collection. From list #2 I used the color blue,  with the blue paper, the blue doily and although hard to see I used blue alphas for my title.
From list #3 I used Carta Bella papers.  The background camera paper and the you are here paper strip, they are both from the Travel Stories collection.

So go to "SKETCH OUR STASH" and join in.

Arlington

As I'm finishing old vacation layouts this last week, I found that the Jan. 1st sketch at
"STUCK ?! SKETCHES" was perfect to use 3 pictures of the grave markers of other than the regular
crosses of graves of the soldiers.   While we were there they were doing maintenance on the
eternal flame at JFK's grave so didn't get to see that.
I'm really enjoying going back into my picture archives plus pulling out my old albums and
looking at the pictures and the layouts.   This was my first trip to DC in 2008
