It all starts with a sketch...............
the Sunflower Series at Scrapbooksteals.com
 
 
 
 
As a scrapper, I love to use something as inspiration for my layouts.  I personally LOVE starting with a sketch.  Scrapbooksteals.com is a steal of the day site that I check out ever day.  One day I realized they post a sketch every Wednesday to inspire a page.  I LOVED it and I try to do all of the sketches.  The challenge for me was always getting them done and posted.  I was so excited as I finished the series this time.  Here are my layouts for the Sunflower Series:
 
 
Sunflower #1:
(I had originally written down the wrong sketch.  So when I redid the page, I used this awesome collection from My Minds Eye Happy Camper.  They still have some of this if you want a great deal!)

So for this challenge I wanted to use this black and white paper with the red script.  I cut it so that I could use this fun paper on a couple of pages.  I always LOVE the flair so I had to use it on my first page.


I also created some other pages:

I loved the bright, happy colors in this kit.  It made it perfect to scrap my grandson, Michael, who almost always has a smile on his face!  Thank you for stopping by.  You are now on the way to visit Mariah's blog at  http://www.fun2scrap.blogspot.com  Have an awesome day!!!!
