100% Pure Country ~ Stuck On U Sketches

Hi Everyone!!  It's Friday and that means it's time for another sketch reveal over at Stuck On U Sketches..  And this awesome sketch was designed by our own Leah and here it is!! 

And so for my take on it I had to use these cute photos of Grandson Colten.  He had his picture taken awhile back at daycare and they just came in and I couldn't wait to scrap them...  He is such a cutie in his hat that's 2 sizes too big for him!!  lol

Here are a few close ups

This is a recycled raffia bow from a gift package.. I added a couple of the Tim Holtz idea-ology Sprocket Gears and used a brad for the center.

Another Tim Holtz idea-ology Sprocket Gear, Thickers, a portion of the corrugated cardboard, and part of the Cricut title cut with Country Life Cartridge.

This layout will also qualify for the following challenge(s)..

Learning to Share ~ Stuck On U Sketch Challenge

Hi everyone!!!   Can you believe that it's Friday, again!  I don't know about you, but to me it seems like the weeks are flying by.  I only have 6 more weeks left at work!!  :o)  But, I'm going to be available by phone and drive in if they need me for awhile, which I don't mind at all...  It's still going to give me a lot of freedom to do the things I want to do, like, playing grandma and crafting... and if I have time, a little spring cleaning!!  Anyways, nuff about that...  Since it's Friday, it's time for another wonderful sketch challenge over at Stuck On U Sketches, and this time it's from PageMaps..

I pretty much followed the original sketch, just "flipped" it...  The photos I used were taken last December here at our place.  It was a gorgeous day and DS Levi, and DGS Colten were playing with the scooter...  Levi was pushing Colten around for awhile and then he decided to take it on a spin down the gravel road...  At first Colten was pushing him with one hand while he was holding the bat, and as Levi went faster, Colten couldn't stay up so he started waving the bat..  It was too cute...  I guess Colten thought daddy was getting a longer turn than he got, and was a little upset with him for not sharing!!!  LOL

Here are a few close ups
