12x12 "Beautiful" Layout for CCL Sketch Challenge

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to share a 12x12 layout with you that I recently created for a sketch challenge at Creating the Crafty Life ning site.  The photo is of my late Grandmother who is, was, and always will be beautiful to me.  I really enjoyed creating this layout.  I used the My Mind's Eye Lost and Found paper stack from Hobby Lobby.  I have gotten a lot of use out of that paper lately--it has feminine and masculine papers included, so it's a good dollar value--180 sheets for $19.99.  The papers are a little on the thin side, so I backed this layout with chipboard.  Thanks so much for stopping by & Thanks again to Misty Busby for this fun challenge! 

Have a happy, scrappy day!!! 

Hugs,
Nicole

It's Been A While

Hi everyone! Wow I can't believe how long it's been since my last blog post!! If there were an award for "most neglected blog" I'm sure I would be nominated--LOL! But seriously, we were so busy with our boys activities this spring I just let my You Tube and Blog fall on the wayside. We are the den leaders, merit badge counselors, little league managers and team parents though, so it couldn't be helped. I was able to still create a few fun projects in between all of the hustle and bustle though so I've included a video of one of my recent projects below. I hope you enjoy the project share and are inspired. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by! :-) Hugs, Nicole
