Every week i fall in love with a new sketch by the fabulous Kristy Lee at Scrapbooksteals.com.  This week was no exception. I chose Authentique's Splendid collection to document some of our family pictures from November. 

Do you know what May 5 is?

It is NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING DAY!

This might just be my favorite holiday! (I should tell my husband that it is one of those holidays you need to buy a gift for. :))

What would a holiday be without the chance to win some fantastic goodies. Head on over to enter. (click on picture)

MWM Amethyst #8/ Authentique April Sketch

Authentique and Scrapbooksteals.com combined forces for the MWM. Kristy Lee did a stunning job with the April sketch and I just had to steal Blissful (my favorite Authentique collection) that day.  Because I hadn't picked up Blissful yet, I decided to use Uncommon for the mojo.

 

Since I have no way to make hexagons in a timely matter, I took inspiration from Misty's absolutely stunning take on the layout.  This was a little more time consuming then I usually do, but I really loved doing it and enjoy the final look.  

Supplies:

Authentique  Uncommon

AC Cardstock

Pebbles clothespins, felt flowers, candy dots, and ribbon

WeR Sew Easy Twine

Colorbox Ink 

Slowly But Surely

MWM Amethyst #7

 7a

 The fabulous Kyla Norris was the guest sketcher over on Scrapbooksteals.com and I absolutely loved both of her sketches!  I decided I need to do some catching up on my baby girls album so I decided to scrap a few pages of her. 

The first sketch was perfect to scrap the pictures my husband took our first day home- of her little hands, feet, toes, and head. I just love seeing how tiny those things are on brand-new babies.  I just love how it turned out and can't wait to add it in her book.

Supplies:

Authentique 'Uncommon"
American Crafts Cardstock
American Crafts Thickers
Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink- Charcoal
Imaginisce Foam Squares
