MS&M sketch blog

Well I am back again with some more creations based off of My Scraps & More sketch blog.  That Tammi sure can whip up some good sketches.

I havent had much time to scrap lately--we have been working on a makeover in my kitchen.  But last night while waiting up for my child to get home i worked on this one

Isnt it cute--the possiblities are endless.  Well this month is also their birthday so they are having a birthday swap with us.  We are supposed to use our kit for a sketch and I just had to use this one for my layout about our "night time" babysitter Amanda--I just love that girl.  Anyways here's the layout

And here's another sketch tthat I worked on the other night while waiting for paint to dry-LOL!

TOOOOOTALLY love this sketch--I love sketches with strips--they are soo fun.  I will be using this one again for sure.  I decided to scrap my kids Pre-K graduation photos--ummm hello one is in HS and the other is in Middle School--hehehehehe  I am afraid I made this one a little to busy-oh well I do that sometimes.

Thats it for now--gotta go finish painting my pantry door!

You outta go ck out their blog-pick a sketch and give it a whirl--it's fun I promise!

MSM sketch #20

Told ya I love these sketches!  Here is the second sketch for the month of March

And can you believe i am actually scrapping a picture that I just received last week-SHOCKER!  I am in baseball mode right now so I wanted to go ahead and scrap Bo's picture for this year--here is Mr Handsome  (sorry I am a little proud of him right now)

Of course this was easy for me cuz the sketch is awesome and I got to use my favorite color palette.  YIPEE arent I lucky my kids HS colors are the greatest ever!  LOL

Thanks for looking!

MY scraps and more sketches

I am totally in love with the sketches over at MSM--Tammi is a great sketch designer.  They live such room for intrepretation.

Each week they post a sketch on the blog and you have until the end of the month to post your take in order to be eligible for the monthly prize.

So first one of the month was this

Ok so I had to give it a try--I mean I dont do the slant thang much--and you know I love a challenge!

So here's what I came up with

Its my son and his to besties during one of their games.  This image I saw quite a bit thru the year.  This was really hard for me more than just the slant--Its real hard to me to scrap something and the colors dont match perfectly but I am trying real hard to get over that  (insert rolling eyes)

So thanks for looking-cant wait to tackle next weeks sketch

Memorable Seasons: Are your bags packed???

Memorable Seasons: Are your bags packed???: Because it is time to head off on our island adventure and see who... will be our Last Scrapper Standing for 213. Do you enjoy the TV show... Survivor—well, we here at Memorable Seasons have our own take on the show. It's called The Last Scrapper Standing and we want all you ladies to join us here on our little island for a 6 week adventure that will cause you to scrap your sandals off! 

The DT will issue you a challenge every Friday starting February 8th, you will then have until the following Wednesday to get your layout loaded to the gallery and linked back to the appropriate thread. On Thursday all of us on the island will vote for our top 3 favorites, depending on how many entries we have entered on week 1, a percentage of those will move forward to next week. This will continue until week 5. The last week only the DT members aka THE JURY will vote on the top 3. The layout which receives the most votes will become our Last Scrapper Standing.

So what if you are voted off or what if you don’t want to join in the contest, no problem, because every week ANYONE that participates in the challenges will be eligible for a random prize drawing!
So we encourage you to invite your friends and spread the news because this promises to be the event of 2013, right here on our own little island at Memorable Seasons. So who is ready to be challenged?  Stop by the forum for more details.

I hope you will come join me and the others for some fun times on the island--I am sooo excited for this!

A sketch and a collection = Happy ME!

FINALLY I got to scrap this month-WHEW how I have missed this.  And even better I actually got a challenge done and posted here on time.  Over at My Scraps & More she is hosting a weekly sketch challenge which is right up my alley.  Here is this week sketch

And I actually pulled out some Echo Park for this one.  I luv their product so easy to work with so I breezed thru this sketch rather quickly with no hesitation.  Which totally kick started my mojo again.  So here's what I came up with

So proud of myself-I just reached in a box of pictures and pulled this out and went for it--I luv it.  Now I cant wait for the new sketch tomorrow!

Thanks for looking,
