Some layouts......

This layout I just did for fun because the Amazing Amy.................................
sent me some really cool vintage elements to play with as a Thank You for playing along over at These Are a Few of My Favorite Things. Go over to her blog - she has an awesome vintage etsy shop! Both Katelyn and myself are five years old in these photos.


The challenge over at These Are a Few of My Favorite Things -this time is to scrap about your favorite days of the week, well after working over 25 years in retail management and never getting to have a saturday and sunday off was a real bummer. So a few years ago when I landed a M-F job and got to have weekends to spend with my family - it seems there is just so much catching up to do, so I altered this little journal so I can jot down my plans for the family for our weekends together.

This one is a sketch challenge from Sketchy Thursdays.
