Fashionista in training ~ Stuck On U Sketches Sketch Challenge ~ Chosen as a Top 3 over at Lasting Memories!!

Hi everyone!!!  I hope all is well....  I've been away on a mini vacation with my husband...  He had a seminar in Houston and asked me if I wanted to tag along with him...  I jumped at the opportunity and so glad I did...  There was a mall just across the street and we had our own sky walk from the hotel to mall....  I loved it... and I got in a lot of walking!!   They didn't have a scrapbook store, but hey, you can't have it all!!! 

This week we have a great sketch  over at Stuck On U Sketches created by our Co-Leader.... actually it's a 2 pager....  

Remember, on a 2 pager you can do the left side, right side, or both sides...  The option is yours!!!!

I decided to do just the RIGHT SIDE...  and I chose a photo of Granddaughter Savannah taken December, 2012..  It was at the Courthouse Square in downtown Lockhart, Texas... They were having a Christmas Bazaar and while she was there she had her face painted...  It turned out great and she was so happy with the results.....

Here are a few close ups!!!

Grandma... there's something in the water!!! SOUS Die Cut Challenge ~ CHOSEN AS A WINNER OVER AT GO FISH CHALLENGE!!

Hi everyone!!  I hope you are all well today...  And since it's Friday we have another fun die cut challenge for you over at Stuck On U Sketches!!  Today's challenge is from Co-Leader Nanne and she's kinda made it easy for you by giving you a theme to work with for this challenge.....

and that theme is......

 Rrrrrrr ye "SEA" worthy?

anything to do with the sea ( for example: fish, seaweed, treasure, boats, etc.. etc.. etc..) 

I told you it was easy.... :o)

So for my layout I decided to go way back in my archived photos and picked a couple of cute photos of Granddaughter Savannah taken back on July 8, 2008...  At that age she didn't want her swimming water dirty in any way...  no dirt, leaves, sticks, pebbles or anything else in her wadding pool.  It's pretty safe to say that a little dirt must have gotten in it and she was pretty upset!!    The expression on her face is priceless... 

Here are a few close ups....    

TOP LEFT...

Here you can see Washi Tape, Doily sponged with Stampin' Up More Mustard Ink, Ribbon from The Paper Studio, and a Tag from Pink Paislee - Indigo Blue...

(The red around Savannah's mouth is from eating strawberries... when she was little she used to break out right after eating them...  I'm so glad she doesn't break out any more.... she loves strawberries!)
