What a beautiful day!!!



Well, it really wasn't planned that way, but yesterday was my day to tackle the mountain of laundry that I have been putting off. So of course, in between loads, I had to do "something". So why not get some pages done! :)

Here is my page for Stuck on U Sketches. I had lots of random textured papers and these fun chipboard stickers from Imaginisce.



Let's Capture our Memories offered this fun sketch that was great for my little cowboy. I used some corrugated bits to make the flowers. They were then inked and embellished with some jute, a punched circle and some fun silver cowboy buttons. I love the bandana ribbon too! That was a gift from a friend. :)
Sketches in Thyme challenged us with a multi photo sketch. I cut down some 4 x 6 photos to fit the sketch. These beautiful flowers are only some of the pictures I took at the gardens at Cantigny Park. And of course, the gorgeous Echo Park Victoria Garden papers were a great help!
Sassy Lil' Sketches challenged us with a multi patterned paper sketch. This one was a tough one. I guess that's why it was put off for so long. I used lots of random textured papers from the stash. I didn't like that it was so plain and boring. That's when I decided to bend the corners and tack them down with some snaps. Now I was happy! My color inspiration came from Frosted Designs color combo challenge. :)
And finally, here is my submission for the monthly sketch challenge at Imaginisce. I didn't realize how much of their product I had until I went searching for the perfect papers. Then the hard part was deciding which line to use. After cutting a few circles (the wrong size), I finally got just the right ones. I cut out a few of the strawberries and put them on pop dots. I also used my hexagon punch to add a little bit to the design. It matched the honeycomb patterns on the papers, that I will be using in the near future. :)
Have a great Sunday! We are off to enjoy this gorgeous day! :)
