Wow! I had a FUN, BUSY week! I was able to spend a lot of time thinking and planning out some pages, and then was totally inspired to get to work!
This month sure brought a lot of wonderful sketches! As I'm sure you can see, I am addicted to sketches and love the challenges that they bring. And since I love going out and taking TONS of pictures everywhere, there is definitely never a shortage of things to work with. :)
The weather is changing quickly, and I am losing daylight even quicker. Taking good pictures is becoming my biggest challenge. So now I have to save my posts until the weekend. :(
I hope you have the patience to sit through a post filled with lots of sketches and my interpretations....
I love Echo Park! And the Be Mine collection worked wonderfully with my daughter's school Spring picture.

Group 1 sketch from
Show Us Your Stuff. I inked up the whole background with 3 different inks. All of the other bits and pieces are from the Fall stash.

This one was probably the most difficult sketch. I just couldn't figure what to do with all those little circles. But then I remembered....I have BUTTONS!!!
This sketch can be found at
Stuck?! Sketches.

Let's Capture These Sketches has some gorgeous sketches! Here is the first one I finished. I can't wait to work on the next one! I used some velvet trim for the challenge at
Frosted Designs this week. The flowers are all from Michael's. And I found the metal circle frames and the key in the "junk" drawer.

...and finally!
Sketch Inspiration #241! I was able to play with a doily! I love inking and spraying doilies! And I added a few Stickles too. The flowers are all miscellaneous that I layered and stickled. The most trouble I had with this page were the rubons for the giant brads. I had such a hard time with these!
