Peachy Keen Challenge


A fun little mini I am working on... still waiting for one more fall activity then off in the mail it goes to my Dad in West Virginia! I thought I would make a page like the sketch challenge over at Peachy Keen...it worked well in to my mini and was perfect for the next pages in my book! I might post more of this mini at a later date...
What I used: Boy Mates PK faces, Bo bunny paper for the apple, Cosmo Cricket for the green paper, and DCWV for the blue.

Peachy Keen Teal Mermaid

I made this one page 12x12 layout for one of my girls, I dont have the pictures yet, but its not a problem for me, I have the clothes I want the girls to wear, and my parents live on the beach, so a photo opp is sure to come! I used cardstock, inked it all and made some waves, cut out the mermaid and added the sequin tail strand by strand, I just layered them on to each other.   I used a PK princess face, and did  a little chalking. I have been looking at this layout for a while, I think its missing something... can you figure it out?
* If you click the pic you can make it bigger and see better*

Im going to enter this into PK challenge over on their blog.

MLS Sketch Challenge




I made this "bloom" layout of my 2 oldest girls for the MLS  Sketch Challenge.   I used the  Enchanted Garden collection. Stickles, a black pen, and some thickers. I am in love with this paper! The collection is just amazing, every single paper works with each other so well I had a hard time trying to pick what ones to use... Then I had an even harder time cutting it up! They are just so pretty- I felt a pang of guilt cutting it! I am saving every single scrap of this paper and am going to use it! I think saying that eased my guilt a little. hehe!

One of my coworkers from my last job, has a blog I am reading. Bellingham A Bolivia She is over in Bolivia helping the community with the water situation. When was the last time you worried about your water? Have you ever? Imagine bringing back your newborn to a home with no clean water to use, or bathe him in? I cant. I boiled EVERYTHING for a year with my little girls. I wont go off on my thoughts, please read hers, she expresses what it is like to be there so fluidly. Please I ask you give your self a gift today, take a moment to go read this blog. If you do I would love to hear what you think. I am enlightened every day.
