SKETCH#228 OVER AT CREATIVE SCRAPPERS

Hi ladies, how are you all? Have you ever seen a sketch and knew exactly what you were going to do. Well thats what i thought  when i first saw this sketck we were given over at CREATIVE SCRAPPERS.

I thought i would scrap some photos of my son using some papers from  SIMPLE STORIES. But it just wasnt working for me. So a quick change of photos and paper range and done, Im pretty happy with how it turned out, im so LOVING this range from ECHO PARK,(maybe my favourite to date)
So here is my page of Hayley. I just turned the sketch.

Pop on over and have a look at the other DT pages, and why not join in while your their. Thanks for looking. Will be back soon.

PAGE FOR PURPLE PUMPKIN



Hi ladies, How are we all. Todays page i have to share  with you is of my youngest daughter Hayley.
She loves playing with my sunglasses, normally she wear them upside down as she doesnt like the arms around her ears, but i took a photo of her with them on the right way.

After taking a couple of photos, she snaped one of the arms off.
I love the bird button, which i got in my mixed lucky dip.
 
 
 
   The white doily i cut in half, then i placed the little yellow one on top.

     And the heart buttons are one of my favourite, they go with anything.
YOU CAN NOW SHOP  AT http://purplepumpkincrafts.blogspot.com.au/ ALL THE TIME.
AND WHILE YOUR THERE, WHY NOT JOIN IN ON THIS MONTHS SKETCH COMP.

WELL THANKS FOR LOOKING.
