"Look" Layout

Happy Sunday!  Do you ever get so inspired by a sketch that you have to go straight to your studio and create a layout?  That was me last night.  Sue Sykes shared her sketch for the February Canadian Scrapbooker Sketchy Challenge

 and I absolutely loved it and knew that I wanted to create something with my Cameo and some papers from the Be Loved Collection from Fancy Pants.  I flipped the sketch so I could use a landscape type photo instead of a portrait photo.

I love my son's blue eyes and this is a snapshot of when he was eleven years old.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

My Art Journal For February

Today I wanted to share what I'm up to with my art journaling.

Lynn Thune, a very talented shabby chic artist, and sweet lady,  is teaching a great art journal class.  Lynn had a brilliant idea to take the book "Happier At Home" by Gretchen Rubin, who is also the author of the bestseller "The Happiness Project", and create an art journal.  Every month we read a chapter and then use the book to art journal.  In a year's time, I will have a fabulous art journal with lots of techniques.

This is my page for February.

I tend to be a bit of a hermit in the winter and it is so nice to gather with a great group of ladies each month and just socialize and create.

If you would like to see the January page, you can see it here.

My cat likes it when I art journal, so one of these days, you may see a lot of paw prints on my pages LOL.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful Friday!
