Lets Scrap DT Reveal

Yay its reveal day again at Lets scrap..... I loved this sketch so much I made two versions - one for my new nephew to be, and I liked it so much I made another baby album for my middle child.

Im really kicking myself that my eldest daughters baby photos were the first ones scrapped (badly) and none were digital.... would have loved to make the kids a baby album each....

This is the fabulous sketch  - you will love creating with it!!! Come and play over at Lets scrap

 This is my first version of the sketch - which was also my DT reveal! I used graphic 45s Baby to bride collection along with Kaisercrafts bundle of joy collectibles. I am also linking this page up to Scrap it with a song for the month. This months song is "photograph" by Nickelback. Although the song is about photographs so pretty much any layout would probably fit, these photos really resonate with the song lyrics - (look at these photographs every time I do it makes me laugh/ cry, time to say goodbye.) These photos were from my daughters birth so it was definately a happy time, however this was also the final photo I have of their father, as he died five weeks later. Which is why it resonates with looking at photos making you cry, as well as saying goodbye.Also fitting with the song they are fairly old photos (almost 10 years) and it shows where my daughter initially grew up.

I am also linking up over at Artastic challenge blog. the challenge this month uses the inspiration picture shown blow, and the requirement is to use a quote on your work. I added a quote rubon to the journalling tag at the top in this layout.


My second version of the sketch is below, I am linking this one up over at White with one. This months colour is hemlock, which happened to be perfect for a baby page using Kaisercrafts "bundle of joy" paper range. Cant wait for my sister to fill in this page, I think she is going to love it!
