New sketch! {scrapbook circle}


Hello! I'm so excited to bring you a new sketch challenge over at the Scrapbook Circle blog. I think I may miss making sketches as much as some of you may miss playing along with them. :)

And this is the page I made using the April "Daydreamer" Scrapbook Circle kit and the sketch. The layout is about Nate's competitive nature and our Family UNO Trophy. 


Yes, we have a Family UNO Trophy. It is teeny tiny and made of "pure plastic gold." Well, it works for us! LOL. We usually play a best-of-four series for one of us to have the majority of the wins when we play. It's super fun, I swear.


For the banner, I used the Heidi Swapp Color Magic 12" Banner Delights and misted them twice, once with yellow then a spritz of green for dimension. These banners are so cool! I recommend trying them if you get your hands on a set.


I also used the chevron kraft envelope to hold my hidden journaling. I wrote a lot about how competitive Nate is with his games. Most kids are, but he makes me laugh with how seriously he takes these card games. He's crazy good at Go Fish, too.

Thanks for stopping to see my page and the latest sketch challenge. Scoot on over to the Scrapbook Circle blog to play along with us this month!
