Savannah ~ It's the little moments..... -- Stuck On U Sketches

 Hi everyone!!!!  I wish you all the very best in 2013 and hope you find lots of time to create/scrap!!  To help you along we have another beautiful sketch over at Stuck On U Sketches and this one was created by Co-Leader Nanne...

   

Here's the sketch.....

BUT, for this challenge we also have a twist...  Use some of your scraps!!  Although you don't have to do the twist if you don't want too....  but why not?  I know most of us have plenty of scraps laying around so here's a chance to use some of 'em!!!  ;o) 

 

Here are some of the scraps I used....

I wound up not using a couple of these, but then I also used up some of my black cardstock scraps to mat the photo and for the 4 Sizzix flourishes in the corners!!!

 For this challenge I decided to do a "girly" page....  With 3 little grandsons and only 1 granddaughter I find myself doing more and more "boy" layouts..... 

The photo is of GD Savannah at 6 years, and was taken September 25, 2011... 

Here are a few close ups!!!
