Once Upon A Sketch

Hi There!

This is my entry for the latest sketch. I have used the song "Songbird" by Fleetwood Mac. This is the song  I walked down the aisle to. Everytime I listen to it, it gives me goosebumps. The words are so gorgeous & say how I feel about my Hubby Craig (my High School Sweetheart) Married 7 years , together for 14 years.
" To you, I'll give the world,
To you, I'll never be cold,
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you
It's alright, I know it's right........
And I love you, I love you , I love you
Like never before"

I have used another gorgeous bloom by Manor Hous Creations "Enchanted Little Princess" You can find them here http://www.manorhousecreations.com/. I have used Bo Bunny Gabrielle collection papers

This next LO was inspired by one of my fav artists Janine Koczwara. This is the tutorial Janine has posted  http://janinekoczwara.typepad.com/a_creative_life/2011/08/tutorial-lo-londonerry.html

I didn'y have any Prima to use for this tutuorial so I made do with the stash I had- not quite as pretty as hers but I like the way my LO turned out. Thanx Janine for you wonderful inspiration!

Thanks for Looking!
Cheers

Scrap That Baby- Whaky Words

Hi There!

The new prompt is up at Scrap That Baby. This prompt is Whaky Words. You can do a LO about the funny things ur kids say or their first words etc.
This is my DT example
This is a photo of my DD Kayla & her little buddy Tom. Don't u just LUV both of their cheeky grins!!
Every time I take a photo of Kayla she says "Say Dora" instead of "say cheese". It is so cute when she says it & we both have a laugh so it is easier to get a smiling shot from her!
Here are some close ups
I have used a combination of Echo Park "Life is good" paper & stickers & soem Pink Paislee "soiree". The flowers are from Petaloo & the alphas are American Crafts Thickers. I have used my new Die-Namics doily die cut which is so pretty!

Thanks for looking!
Cheers
