Here's my layout for the latest sketch at Inspired Blueprints!
We recently visited Ocean Adventure in Subic and we fell in love with the dolphins. 
Title: Up Close and Personal
Journaling: A chance to touch and pet a dolphin is an experience we just can't miss! (Ocean Adventure, Subic 10/22/09)
Notice those black vinyl rub-ons? EAD designs have been very generous in providing the DT's with a pack of their amazing rub-ons. These rub-ons are really gorgeous and are so easy to adhere to your page!
Oh, by the way, here's the sketch.
This sketch is perfect for a single photo layout. I'm looking forward to seeing your creations at the gallery!

Game Boy!
This is my layout for sketch #34 at Inspired Blueprints. Have you been to the gallery lately? There are so many amazing layouts and the birthday bash was a huge success!
I admit these are not my usual colors but these are the colors that match Julia's shirt. LOL!
Title: Miss Gameboy
Journaling: Messy hair, your feet up on a chair plus your gameboy equals lots of hours of fun!
Materials: mostly Sassafrass with some Prima and Tim Holtz.
Thanks for looking!

I haven't posted these yet!
Here are the rest of my layouts for the ScrapMuse October kit. The newsletter is out and you can check it out here! This kit is really fun to work with. There are lots of different patterns and the colors are just wonderful. Among my favorites in the kit are the jillibean journaling spots, and the canvas cut-outs!


Our theme for the month is using a photo of an inanimate object. I scrappred about my desire to get fit and healthy. 
Thanks for looking!
