Getting Ready for School!

Its that time of year when every parent is happy and yet a bit sad that school is about to start and for us its a first! But Sydney is so excited to start the Early Fives program. Everyday She runs around the house with her backpack and every night she asks if tomorrow she can go to school. I only hope that she keeps feeling this way after she starts!

A bit about my layout, I only used scraps! Which worked great with the pretty sketch over at PageMaps. Here is the sketch:

And now my layout as you can see I added a few more layers

 because I just can't help myself :)

 And just a few details for fun!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Bring on the SUN!

Bring on the SUN!!

It's been crazy here & fun too! So sorry its been a while I thought I would stop and share a quick LO that I made using the Paper Bakery's Beautiful sketch #9.

I made this LO for Practical Scrappers our theme was Bring on the sun. So I found this great old  old line from Bo Bunny(because I swear I'm going to use this paper!!)I thought all the little suns and the background paper just screamed sunshine! 

Make sure you hop on over and see what the other ladies created :) and if you want a great sketch check out the Paper Bakery August Kits go on sale soon!

Thanks for stopping by I promise I will be back soon!

And here is my take as you can see I deviated a bit from the sketch but not too much :) I used some Fancy Pants Scraps that Anegla was kind enough to pass along from her Scrappy Chic kit from a few months back!
