Too Stinkin' Cute

Today's challenge at FROSTED DESIGNS is to pick a shape and use it 3 times...

Of course, I picked CIRCLE.... here's my layout.  (used AC Amy Tan line)

A Hunter Layout -- and January published layouts (SNR MAG)

This week at SKETCHES IN THYME, we're doing an "open" sketch...we can use any sketch we want...

So I used this awesome sketch from Susan Stringfellow's blog SKETCH SAVVY

This is my nephew Hunter from our visit to Ohio last summer:

Also... the Feburary edition of Scrapbook News & Review Magazine is out...so I can now share the layouts that were published in the January issue:

Category: 8.5x11

KISS (keep it simple)

Black & White (color)

Funny Faces

Free for All (anything goes)

Jesus, Thorns, Love & Best Friends....

This week at SKETCHES IN THYME, Tiffany made this fun 2 page sketch...

And here's my layout.... (my next door neighbor's name is Jesus...and we use their pool...hence the title)

And...a few for Memorable Seasons using my DT kit for Feb which had MME Love Me (a Valentine line of papers).

and a card:

New challenges at Sketches in Thyme & Frosted Designs & catchup for Memorble Seasons

This week at SKETCHES IN THYME we have this cool sketch....

And at FROSTED DESIGNS our Fabulous Friday challenge is LOVE!!

So I made this layout:

And.....we finished up our Sketchathon last month at Memorable SEasons and I just realized I never posted my final few layouts...so here they are:

(the first two are using my DT kit featuring LYB's Winter Twig line)

School 3-Peat

So today at SKETCHES IN THYME we have the sketch below....  oh my...I was freaking myself out with this one!!  I actually did a layout that I HATED (you probably won't see that one posted here..lol!!)  ....  so I tried it again...and I"m really thrilled with how it turned out.  See it below!!  I like it so much that I'm going to submit it to SNR magazine for a call in the future for "multiple pics" on a page.  I thought this was a unique and fun way to show that!!  Thanks to Tiffany for another sketch to get me out of my box and "challenge" me!!  (that's what it's about, right?!!)

So the pics here are from December 2011 at Joseph's school assembly.

1) He had a speaking part in their little play

2) He got perfect attendance award

3) He got Student of the Month (surprise)

Hence...the 3 Peat title.

Papers & embellies are Little Yellow Bicycle school line from last summer.

(still have it...still love it...still using it!!)
