Colten at 16 months ~ Stuck On U Sketches Reveal



Hi everyone!!!!  I've got some wonderful news to share with you today!!  As of today I am officially back on the awesome Stuck On U Sketches (SOUS) Design Team and I couldn't be happier!!  I've totally missed working with these wonderful ladies..  Thank you for having me back!!   And what a wonderful sketch for me to start with, which is actually a double page sketch, by our very talented Leah.. 


And remember, for those of you who love to scrap with a lot of photos, this double page sketch is perfect for you..  But for those of you who would rather just do a single page at a time, don't worry, you can play as well.   I chose to just do a one page layout using the left sketch...
For my layout I used photos of my little GS Colten taken March, 2011.  Colten wanted a ride on the tractor soooo bad, but his daddy and grandpa were building fence and didn't have time right then.  But, just so you know, later on in the evening he did get his tractor ride!!  I mean, who could say no to this face?!!!  Too cute!
Here are a few close ups..... 
Here you can see that I recycled the outer part of a DA Piece, which I painted with acrylic paint and then sanded it down..  You can also see some of my fussy cut flowers, 3-D Bird and Nest, Tag with Button, Twine and Close pin, and a little bit of the Magic Mesh..

More of the recycled DA Frame, DA Flourish, and a MS Butterfly with stickles on it..

This layout will qualify for a few challenges...
Crafty Ribbons ~ One for the Men or Boys
Charisma Cardz ~ Vintage
Do You Stack Up (DYSU) ~ Anything Goes
The Stamp Man Challenge ~ Embellishment It


Here is the list of scrappy things I used on this layout...
Jillibean Soup ~  Apple Cheddar Soup - Milk
Simple Stories ~ Generations Collection
Basic Grey ~ Curio Collection
Close to My Heart ~ Chocolate CS
Stampin' Up ~ More Mustard CS
Dusty Attic
7 Gypsies Tag
Magic Mesh
Tim Holtz idea-ology ~ Ornate Plate
Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch
Stickles
Button
Twine
Close pin
Felt
K & Company 3-D Sticker

That's all I have for you today!!  Please check out the inspiration from the other girls over at SOUS..  We would love for you to join us, just be sure and upload your project so we can all see it!!
Thanks for dropping by!!!
Have a wonderful day!!!
Hugs!!!
