Tonsils {scrapbook circle sketch challenge}


The Talk of the Town kit for Scrapbook Circle this month is amazing. I love the variety of brands and patterns in the kit. This page uses the Studio Calico hexagon stickers that are in the kit and the big canvas heart. 

I also love the gold striped washi tape in the kit. It adds great bling to your layouts.


This layout is about Nate's upcoming adventure with his tonsils. He was recently in the hospital with an  enlarged tonsil they thought might have been an abscess. Instead, he ended up just getting some antibiotics through an IV and then sent on to an ENT for review to have his tonsils removed.

This picture his from his consult with the ENT. He looks so happy. To him, having his tonsils out means no more "sticks," which is what he calls it when he gets tested for strep (which happened a lot and he hates it), and also lots of ice cream and popsicles.


I shared a new sketch challenge on the Scrapbook Circle blog today. Head on over there for the details, but here is the sketch for you to take a peek at. Hope to see you playing along!


Thanks for stopping by today. I love this page and hope it has inspired you to make something this weekend!

Love how you used the more neutral colors in the background Diana and then your photo really pops with Nate in his red shirt!! I hope everything goes okay with his tonsil surgery...having multiple strep tests is definitely not a fun thing!!
