Hope you are always this happy

My Mind's Eye has an other sketch challenge on the blog and I decided to play along again. Challenge # 13 is to use this sketch and the word HOPE.
























This is my take on this sketch.






















Gabriel is so into these small toys called GOGOS CRAZY BONES right now, nothing makes him happier than getting a new package of them !!
I used the So Sophie  Charming collection for my layout .The Niki Riki Thickers are a perfect match for these papers.
Thanks so much for your visit.

Scraplift yourself (Pebbles inc)

This week on the Pebbles inc blog the DT was asked to scraplift one of their previous layouts.
I chose this layout of Gabriel taking his first steps using the Lil' Buddy collection.























and this my lift using the new Tree House collection.






















These papers were a perfect choice for this layout...note the shapes he was painting, they look like the trees on the patterned paper !!!
Thanks for visting my blog !!
