#awesomekid Layout

-
I have so enjoyed taking pictures of my kids wearing their favorite outfits. As I catch up on all the pictures I need to scrap from the last couple of years, you'll see a lot more of this - I am sure. I decided to use a sketch from the Let's Get Sketchy challenge blog. Elijah was wearing a T-shirt and Trucker Hat from one of our favorite small shops, Onxy Avenue Apparel, in this pictures. We love the monochromatic look of the black and white clothing. This T-shirt, especially, was one that I washed and he wore - repeat! 

The Sketch:


My Take:


As you can see I did take a pretty big detour as I put this one together, but I promise you that this layout was entirely inspired by the sketch above. 

To Create this Layout:

The Paper Studio: Ninth Street paper stack
Me & My Big Ideas:  paper stickers
Heidi Swapp: Chipboard pieces 
Pebbles: Photo Overlay
Jot: popup "Boy" sticker


Thank you so much for stopping by!


Blessings,

War Binder

We are now into August and I have been thinking a lot about the fact that school is coming. I have been homeschooling my daughter for the past year and a half. She is now going to go to a Christian school in the fall for junior high. I can't believe that she is in 7th grade already! I am both sad for me and excited for her. One of my favorite things about homeschooling, besides having my daughter home with me everyday, was using my Happy Planner for lesson planning. I love my lists and seeing my week planned out on paper. So, I was thinking through how to make a good use of my Happy Planner this coming year. I a blog post on how to set up a  War Binder .

Let's Scrap - Friends Forever

Since moving away from my home town I don't get to see my old high school/college friends very often. There was a core group of us that hung out beginning in high school and we are all friends still. The one friend that was responsible for all of us meeting and ultimately becoming friends was getting married. It was so fun to all be back together for an evening. What was also fun was seeing all of our children together. Definitely one of those sentimental moments that needs to be scrapbooked and kept for all time! Let's Scrap has a fantastic sketch up on the blog that was perfect for these pictures. This sketch included a fun element: booklet. At first I had some trouble figuring out how to do this but then it became clear. I hope you enjoy the layout and the booklet as pictured for you below. I decided to use the left side of the layout. And I hope you are inspired to try this fun element on your next layout! The Sketch: My Take (on the left side of the...
