LOAD 21, LOAD 22, Sketches

OK my computer is going nuts right now so this is out of order> below is the sketch i used for load 22. a few of us have been chatting about the use of sketches and how sometimes they are awesome and sometimes they hold us back. So, i thought i'd show ya how i used this sketch. My LO is different in many ways. photos to start. this was just a cool card i liked in a magazine. i mimicked the CS, Striped Paper on the bottom and a thinner strip of Paper in the middle. I put the flowers up in the corner instead of where the card shows and i added my photos, stitching (rub-ons) and Journal Block. Inked the edges and called it done. Sketches are just a starting point. It is my scrapbook afterall! Enjoy!

SKETCH FOR LOAD 22 (BELOW THIS RAMBLIN SECTION!)

Yesterday was busy - got my LOAD in before we hit the town. Met some friends at Mi Rancho's for dinner. A Grande Sombrerro, Afgan, and Shot of Tequilla with a Mexican version of Happy Birthday - graced Scott by the end of the evening. We had fun to say the least. Then we hit the bowling alley - my goodness. i am hurting today! I know I'm a whimp but come on! Guess my age shows. Or it could be those degenerate discs my chiropractor keeps working on. But we really had a lot of fun. it's good to get out and be with friends. Next - it's roller skating. ha!!
