my BFF - Stuck?! Sketches Aug-15

Hi there!
I am so excited
to share this page with you!
Today, is ALL about
a very SPECIAL gal
in my life.
HaPpY BIRTHday Ronna
my BFF
In March, Ronna and I were truly blessed to attend her first
ScrapMuch? Retreat together.
  3 very full days of scrappy shenanigans! 
She brought her polaroid - and these baby were captured!
This Echo Park collection; Capture Life was so PERFECT
- in many ways!!
This is Ronna's favorite colour, I love chevrons (I do!)
and when we scrap together
(and I'm going to admit - I think that was the last time
we've been able to squeeze in some scrappy time together)
it's like we're in our own little world or place.
The abstract park in the middle of the city, fitting!
some Bling, run-on paint splatters
and wooden tiles
I added the blue glass Bling to the flowers
 -just to give a lil'pop
 Here, we're in our evening lounge wear,
AWESOME Moments like these
= PRICELESS
 
Here is the sketch:
Stuck?! Sketches Aug-15
 
Of course, I flipped the sketch,
when we scrap together, I scrap opposite
to her and I view everything upside down
(my girl gets it!!)

 Some pretty paper, Bling and a story
to showcase my BFF on her day
and one of our Best weekends together
HaPpEeee BIRTHday
Ronna
I love you

Hi there
 
TGIF
We are getting ready
to host my family
at Casa Ramirez this weekend.
and today I get to share my
Sketch-y Friday
REVEAL
SiLLy &fun
This is my Little and his best buddy.
It was Grandparents Day at school and these photos were shared
with me.
They're just SCREAMING silliness and these boys
have so much fun when their together!
 
Here are some close ups:
 My Little "helped" me
title this page
(actually I didn't have a choice - he wanted to scrap these photos  his Ronna gave him!!)
 Mixed thickers gives it that silly feel
 I layered up this corner - brings a lot of fun
The up-cycled tag has an "R" in the spade, so I was asked to
use this "sick tag"
Our family name and his buddy both start with R
Some  acrylic paint, a rub-on from my stash
(at the ScrapMuch? retreat I won a stack of rub-on's - lucky ME!)
I inked my wooden button
and added the buddies flair
 
Here is the sketch:
August 14

Hi there

TGIF
Sketch- y Friday
My first post for JULY
We are now into our first month of full summer
Bunny FACE
Look at my little - my cutie!!
I sat him on the couch,

He wanted to run away.... and eat his prop LoL
SIGH!!
Epic fail photo shoot
but I quickly snapped whatever sort of 
"fun" I could capture

Here are some close-ups:
Left side
 Placing the title in the middle
I wanted BF on one side,
my little is my Best Friend
Right side
 On the right side "unny ACE"
how babes say things funny or cute stuff
and our little is quite the character!!
 This SUPER CUTE Polaroid was a perfect pop
of orange
 He is too cute for words
and his BIG feet!
a mix of embellies from Tim Holtz light bulb to a
little bling

An epic day - we'll be talking about for some time.

a couple of weeks - while I search for

when I grow UP - ScrapMuch? Sketch-y Friday Design Team REVEAL

Hi there!

It's FRIDAY
Time to share my 
DT
 Reveal
with
TEAM A
when I grow UP
Anyone who knows me, knows my little LOVES to dress up
(*she whispers - he starting to grow out of this - sadly)
He loved this Captain America outfit
(and was just darling in it!!)
He would wear it EVERYWHERE even to daycare

Here are some close ups:
For the circle I used his shield
I up-cycled my Philadelphia cream cheese seal
for the silver circle and the seal from my can of Orangina for the silver star
The title is a Close to my Heart rub-on
 I used a Polaroid frame but put it through the corrugat-or tool for some
texture, dug into my stash for the Dream rub-on
I loved the pop of white but needed some more texture.
A rub-on corner
My blue, I used the cuddle bug dots and rubbed some
chalk paint for rustic depth.

Here is the sketch:
June 19
But I flipped it
