Last week my brother and his kids went to see the Blue Man Group in Las Vegas. As you can see they were in the splash zone and got to meet one of the performers after the show. The basis for this layout is April's sketch from Miyuchi over at Scrapbook.com.
For Christmas we all got together and gave my niece and nephew ski lessons at Massanutten Resort in Virginia. Here they are riding up in the ski lift. For this layout I followed January's sketch from Miyuchi. The papers are from SU and called Soho Subway.
I've been following "Miyuchi" on scrapbook.com for several months and I really love her clean and simple sketches. When I saw these photos I knew they would be perfect for this sketch. The inspiration for the papers came from the clothing.
Here is my layout for August's sketch from Miyuchi over at scrapbook.com. These photos were taken at Currituck Beach Lighthouse in the Outer Banks. This structure dates back to 1875.
Here is this month's sketch from Miyuchi and a picture of Cousin Haddy. I kept all the colors very simple and plain by using papers from SU's Paw Parade.
For this month's sketch from Miyuchi I thought these airshow photos in polaroid frames would be perfect. Speaking of polaroids, I recently purchased the Fujifilm Instax camera and OMG...it is so much like an old school Polaroid camera! Definitely recommend it.
Here is this month's layout for Miyuchi's May Serendipity Sketch. This is my first time using text on a path in PSE...pretty cool.
For this month's sketch from Miyuchi I wanted to remember my father-in-law who would have been 93 years old on April 10th. We recently visited his gravesite and had a moment to reflect on his life. The lilacs are for Sallie.
Here in SoCal we are seeing extreme high temperatures while in the Northeast they are preparing for a Nor'easter. So, for this month's sketch from Miyuchi I thought these two photos were perfect. They were taken 1 day apart just 84 miles from each other. Crazy, huh?
For this month's sketch from Miyuchi I used two photos from Christmas that were taken at a local bowling alley. Not having been bowling in over 20 years it was a lot of fun and I was amazed by how much the technology has changed with respect to scoring, automatic bumpers, etc. Great fun!
I came across this wonderful sketch and gallery by Miyuchi at Scrapbook.com. For this layout I used photos from a fishing adventure we had with my niece and nephew over the Christmas holiday in Virginia. The weather was unseasonably warm and we had a ton of fun casting our lures across the pond.
