Sketchy Thursdays {a manly page}


Hello! It's Thursday, so I have a new sketch for you at Sketchy Thursdays. You can see the sketch as well as the prize that The Sampler has been so generous to offer up to this week's winner (a June kit!!). Head on over to the blog and join along. I'd love to see some of you over there!!


I used my Scrapbook Circle Garden Party kit to make this page. Aren't the colors just too yummy? I love the variation in the papers and patterns this month. Perfect for the moment I wanted to preserve.


This picture is from Nate's birthday party at Frontier Field when we went to the Red Wings game. It was a perfect day for this father-son pair.

And if YOU have a boy/father/son/man page or card you'd love to share, link up at the Paper Issues blog for the current MANLY Challenge.

There, I think I covered it all. And wish me luck today. By the time you read this, I would have already touched down in NYC for a day in the Big Apple. My flight is at the crack of dawn and I return by 4:30 this evening.

The NextStepU Sales Team is up for an award, and I'm one of the few going to support them and their chance at winning. I'll also be going on a sales call, which is a first for me since I'm the Production Director, but it's a team effort, eh?! :)

Not a huge fan of flying—scared to death is more like it. LOL! But ya gotta do it sometime, right?! See ya'll back here soon! Have a great Thursday!
