Hush Little Baby... Sketches In Thyme Challenge ~ Top 5 Winner at Cupcake Challenge AND a Top 5 Winner at Creatalicious ; AND Slumber Party ~ The Pink Elephant Scrapbook Challenge!

~SKETCHES IN THYME CHALLENGE NO. 9~

Hi everyone, it's Thursday again and today I have two (2) posts for you!!  The first one is for Sketches In Thyme!!  This weeks sketch is from Helen Croft from Scrap-a-little-sketches and you can do so many fun things with this one... 
As you see I only used 2 photos instead of 3, only because I used larger photos...  I chose these cute photos of little GS Zach when he as a couple of weeks old..  He is just too cute and such a good baby! 
Here is the list of scrappy things I used on this sweet layout:
SU Bordering Blue CS and Ink
Webster's Pages ~ Nature's Storybook ~ soaring blue skies
K & Company Susan Winget ~ Designer Mat Pad
MS Deco Fan Border and Corner Punch
SU Chocolate Chip CS
MS Garden Trellis Border Punch
Dusty Attic Music Border
My Minds Eye PP
Doily
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist
Dusty Attic Bird Cage #2
Prima Flowers and Flower cluster
Prima Flutter Vine
The Paper Studio ~ La Patites 3-D images
I printed the music sheet off of the computer on
Webster's pages ~ Winter's Wings ~ snowflakes & feathers

I found a few challenges out there that this will qualify for and here they are:
Sketches In Thyme ~ Sketch
Alphabet Challenge ~ N for Nature
Creatalicious Challenge ~ Add some 3-D
Creative Inspirations ~ Anything Goes
The Cupcake Craft Challenge ~ Distressing
Paper Niche ~ Punches
Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge ~ Anything Goes
Pile it on Challenge ~ Butterflies, bugs and bees
Scrap It With a Song ~ Faith Hill's The Kiss  ~  She uses the word "Baby" a couple of times so that's what I went with.......
Simon Says Challenge ~ Sing it Baby  ~  Hush little baby don't say a word.........
The Corrosive Challenge ~ All About Babies
Totally Gorjuss ~ Baby, Baby...
I just think it turned out soo cute and I already have it framed..  I just need to get it on the wall with the other little grand babies...
Be sure and go check out the other Mavens and see what beautiful things they did with this weeks sketch!!  And then why not play along with us..  We will be giving a prize at the end of the month, so the more times you play, the more times you have a chance to win...
Here is this months prize!
Graphic 45 PP, Basic Grey PP, TPC Studio PP, Prima Chipboard, Prima Flowers, e. Flowers and  e. Pearls & Crystals..  So come on ~ what are you waiting for!!!

And this is my layout for this weeks Recipe Challenge over at TPE Scrapbook Challenge Blog....  The Recipe for this week is ~ Punched Borders, at least 2 Patterned Papers and Buttons....  I just had to add that Big Butterfly for fun!!  Hope I don't get in trouble for that...lol  The photos are of sweet little GD Savannah with one of her sweet friends.  Savannah hosted her first slumber party a couple of weeks ago and I guess you can say they had a blast....  I really had fun with the colors in the photos.....
