Another sketch challenge



Well, I found another website called Sisterhood of Scrap and they have sketches there too. They had one this week that looked pretty easy and kind of fit in with my way of doing pages, so I thought that I would give it a try. So here is my take on their sketchhttp://www.sisterhoodofscrap.blogspot.com/


I did another page too that used some of the wild and colorful paper that I have received in my kits that I get from Scrapdango. As I said before, I have a difficult time doing pages with such vivid and bold colors, not to mention the big prints!! But this one was kind of fun, I suppose because it is of Amanda and her auntie and mommy being silly with her and her new baby bans sunglasses!!
This child already seems to have a great sense of humor and even though she isn't a year old yet, can ham it up for the camera when she wants to!!

Isn't she Cute?

With her little pink nose and pink cheeks, doesn't she just look sooooo very cute? Amanda got to try out her new jacket and hat the other day. I think that pink certainly is her color! I can hardly wait until she sees snow for the first time. She says "wow" quite clearly now whenever she looks at certain things and can imitate a cat's meow too. Do I sound like a proud grandma or what!!!!! I just have to scrapbook this photo but haven't decided on the title yet, any suggestions?

Halloween visitor




We don't get many trick or treaters out here on the acreage, only a few stop by. But this year we had one very special little visitor show up. Here is our little Amanda all dressed up in her penguin costume for her first Halloween. She was so cute! Unfortunately it was getting close to her bedtime and she was alittle tired. Grampa got a couple of smiles out of her though. I didn't catch them with the camera
but they were there!!
