November/December Manufacturer Challenge at A Cherry on Top

I host a monthly challenge on ACOT and because this is such a busy time of year, I have given members two months to complete my challenge.  The letter I chose for these months is the first letter of the member's first name, last name, or their ACOT user name.  Since my first and last name start with C - I have used Crate Paper on my layout.

Desperately need to update my Blog

And what better way than to post my layout for the recent Sketches in Thyme Week 1 November sketch.  I look forward to 2017 when I will have more time to scrap and more time to BLOG!!!

Sketches in Thyme - Sketch 187

WOW - another fabulous sketch for March. Love this photo of our beautiful granddaughters', Emma and Paige!

Sketches in Thyme Sketch #183

What a fabulous sketch by Rochelle Spears this week.  I had fun scrapping these photos of my daughter, Andrea with her nieces, Emma and Peyton.  It's hard to tell who is the adult in these photos since Andrea is the one giving the little ones Bunny Ears!  LOL! I used my new Close to my Heart watercolors along with some splatters of Tattered Angels and Mister Huey's and used papers and accents from the September  Hip Kit Club.

The ScrapRoom Blog January Sketch

Oh my gosh, I fell in love with this sketch when I saw it on Facebook.  It worked perfectly with the photos I had of my granddaughter, Emma at one of her bike races.  I also used this for the A Cherry on Top January "What's on TV Challenge" which was to show a picture of the sky in at least one photo.  I used all Simple Stories "I AM" collection.

Sketches in Thyme Reveal - January 4, 2016

I had so much fun creating this background using a Tim Holtz stencil and different colored inks. And of course I needed to add some Heidi Swapp shine mist!!

Pictures of Andrea and Emma on Christmas evening having some fun!

Sketches in Thyme December Reveal

December Team 1 - assignment was to use this fabulous sketch by Brenda Ragsdale.  Paige wanted a golf cart for Christmas last year but was thrilled with the cart Santa brought her instead.  She showed off her favorite gift to Mom Mom and Pop Pop on Christmas morning, 2014.
