Happy Birthday Sketch It Out!

So today is the one year anniversary of Sketch it Out!

Can you believe it? I cannot! A year really? And tomorrow is my son's 3rd Birthday too! Where or where dose the time go?

In order to celebrate I'm going to give away some blog candy! I'd love to hear from my readers. What do like about my blog and what would you like to see in the future?

Post your comment here by Feb 12th for a chance to when.

Sketch #89

A was so excite to get a cowboy hat with his horseback ride!

A Sweet Layout

My sister recently gave me these photos of my niece and my youngest son. I thought sketch #52 was perfect for these photos. Once again you'll see I've used my Cutter Bee, plus I have dug out my stamps! One of my resolutions for this year is to put all those stamps I collect to good use. Thanks Brandi for forcing me to learn how to use a blendign pen!

Sketch #89

I have taken a new interest in my cutter bee piercing tool...you are sure to see my stimulated stitching on tons of recent layouts! To get straight lines I take out the blade on my fiskars 12x12 trimmer and use the line for a piercing guide. For perfect circles I trace around my circle cutting templates.

Please Say A Prayer!

Please pray for my husband's grandfather. He just had a stroke and is on his way to the hospital now.

Thank you so much.
