Sketch A thon- Layout 10

Sketch A Thon- Layout 8

My 8th layout for the Sketch A Thon at Memorable Seasons is based on a sketch by the
DT coordinator Wendy.
It features my kids on what we also call "opposite day", where my son was reading on one couch and my daughter was on Xbox on the other. That is definately not the norm and therefore we must be in Bizzaro World.

Sketch A thon- layout 6

My 6th layout for the Memorable Seasons Sketch A Thon
was based off of a Page Maps sketch that was a 2 pager.
I wasn't finding any type of inspiration from the 2 pager- so I decided to squish the 2 pages into one and call it my own!
Share our love is a page of me and my family showing off our Valentines goodies.

Sketch A thon- Layout 5

My next layout for the  SKETCH A THON featured a sketch that had many layers!
I decided to pull out some scraps from the DT kit I am working with- Crate- On Trend-
and mix them up and see how they would turn out. It ended up being a nice mix and great way to use my scraps!
The layout features my Abriana looking down at her belly playing with the little puffpaint bears on her onesie.
