Here's my take on the sketch, I used some Lily Bee Designs papers and alphas, a Sassafras paper scallop, a 7 Gypsies tag, a Jenni Bowlin embellishment, some Pebbles buttons, some Basic Gray brads, some misc ribbons.... talk about mixing it up a bit...
I really enjoyed how this sketch had LOTS of off the space working room:

I finally found the Easter photos that we took as a family and got them printed off... I kinda forgot what camera they were on, and took the time to get photos downloaded and printed.. yeah... Here are some of the pics from Easter, both kids looking great in their new Easter wear. I used the 7.21 sketch from Sketchy Thursday, a great multi photo sketch.
check out those cute clothes and happy smiles:
Here is my take on it.... I used one larger photo instead of 4 smaller photos on the left side. I also used the Teresa Collins boys line which was super cool and perfect for Austin's photos....
adding bling to a boy page is OK:

I used one of the gorgeous butterfly images from the sponsor, Floppy Latte Digi Designs... the images are amazing!!!!
