Merry and Bright

This week at FROSTED DESIGNS we are challenging you to use POLKA DOTS....

I had this fun velum paper (big gold dots), so I used that to document the boys putting up the Christmas lights a few months ago.  Nothing like a Christmas layout in June, right...lol?  But I'm never caught up and I don't scrap chronologically (necessarily), so whatever floats my boat is what gets done...LOL!!

Busy Fun, Busy Boy, Busy Life, Busy Joy

So this week at SKETCHES IN THYME we have this awesome sketch...

Joseph helped me come up with the title..but I saw this Simple Stories paper had the days of the week on it and it looked like a RULER (yellow on left side of layout)...so it immediately made me want to document how busy our spring is with all of his activities.   School, Homework, Football, Scouts, Club Basketball & Basketball shooting drills....and silly stuff like Chores (no photo...lol!!)
One of my favorite layouts that I've done recently!!!



And while I'm here...I had a blog post at Scrapbook News & Review today...
I did my take on THIS SKETCH:

And this Joseph from football season (spring)

Super Star & Friends....

Today our sketch at Sketches in Thyme we have this fun sketch with lots of circle elements....
I flipped it a left to right and also changed the size of the circles to fit my theme... Joseph at warm-ups before a football game.


I also want to share a layout of Joseph and his buddy Isaiah...
It's a photo from last year, but a great opportunity to showcase the new
 Elle's Studio line called Cameron. that I just got a few days ago..LOVE IT!!!

My Super Star

Well, everyone knows that I'm a huge fan of Susan Stringfellow's sketches over at Sketch Savvy


But I caught her email this week that she had a Sketchy Thursday sketch for the Scraptastic Club blog...

So, I"m not sure if it's ok that I didn't use their kit?  I hope so, since I'm not a subscriber (yet?)...I was checking it all out and it looks totally cool.  Anyhoo...Here is the sketch and my layout..I used Fancy Pants Park Bench line and I snuck an extra photo on my layout!
