Sassafras sketch for April


Have I mentioned how excited I am that Sassafras Lass is posting monthly challenges on their blog? Here is the page I made to go with the April sketch challenge.


I mixed and matched quite a few of their lines, but my favorite has to be this paper from Ellie's Tale. I just love those feathers! And I love that the richness in the Sassafras Lass colors goes from line to line, so that no matter what collection you are working with, they all match in tone.


I also played along at The Paper Variety. They want to see you put a number on your page. I often find myself "tagging" my pages with Nate's age. Just so years from now I can recall easily how old he was in these pictures. Though I hope that I'll never forget these moments. A mother's wish...

Thanks for visiting my page today. I hope everyone has a great Friday planned and some family time set aside for the weekend. For those of you celebrating, have a great Easter!
