MLSB March Sketch Challenge

I am very excited to have found the MLSB blog, and love that they have a monthly challenge. You can find the march sketch challenge here, and this is what I did with it. I love the end result of this one.

 

I didn't use anything really old in my stash on this one, although I think those thickers have been hanging around for a while...

Kaiser sketch March #3

I am so happy to be getting back into the Kaiser Sketch!! You can find the sketch here - and this is what I did with it using the Be Merry range. Where is the old stash on this layout I hear you ask (not that I have to have some on every page I do at the moment), well it's the photo! Been sitting in my pile since 2004 to scrap! Sorry for the photo being a little wonky!!

March Scrapjacked

This is my layout for ScrapJack this month. I chose the layout from Lisa. I loved the design of the layout, and this is what I have come up with. I have used the Oliver collection from Basic Grey, with some thickers, and using up some of my stash, I have used my Around the Block labeler thing.

Beths 5th Birthday

Yes I haven't forgotten about the other little people in my life!! This is a double I have just finished of Beths 5th birthday in Jan. Used some older Bo Bunny on this one. Part of my goal to use up some old stash!!

What I won and some latest photos...

Last week I posted that my mini album won the sketch challenge at Crate Paper, well my prize arrived in the mail today - the whole collection pack of their new Neighbourhood range including the ribbon, buttons and brads!!! Boy am I excited!!! Thank you so much Crate Paper!!!

And for those who know my little man, here are some recent photos of him - almost 5 months old now!!!

A couple of layouts

I know - amazing!! Not only have I done a layout, but I have finally taken a photo of one I had done a while ago!!

First up is my take at this months challenge at Out of the Hat - the criteria this month was

          1. Use twine

          2. Use a number in your title

          3. Make your own journalling spots

I used some Crate Paper Season Collection with some AC thickers.

This next one is a layout I did the other month using the new Alphabet Soup range from MME.
